Total Goals Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals
Gillingham and Stockport always produce competitive fixtures and we expect this despite the clear difference in class between the two teams. Stockport are supposed to be the top team in the league and on paper, they should be able to beat Gillingham with ease. However, at the same time, Stockport lost the last two matches and conceded 7 goals. Their form is somehow terrible and we believe that Gillingham's defense is strong enough to keep them away from the net. The three most recent games between the two teams since both found themselves in the same tier of English football ended with less than 2.5 goals.
Match Result Prediction: Draw
Gillingham are not the most consistent side but they are consistent when it comes to home performances. They lost only three times in the last ten home matches and this includes positive results against solid teams too. Until recently, Stockport were beating every single opponent and scoring 3+ goals per game. Right now, their attack and defense both look horrid and we see the possibility that Gillingham could get a positive result here. Overall, this is an extremely difficult game to predict and we suggest skipping this particular market.
Correct Score Prediction: 1-1 Draw
Stockport failed to score against Gillingham in the first match this season and their current form is far worse than they were then. However, Gillingham have also been conceding more goals lately and Stockport cannot afford to lose three more points at this stage. We expect the teams to exchange a goal each and split the points. When we compare the Gillingham vs Stockport line ups, the visitors definitely have a massive advantage on paper.
