The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cold day, with daytime temperatures of only 4 degrees, making for an unpleasant day. 13th placed Accrington Stanley is fresh off their 1-2 loss against Gillingham. Charlie Kelman scored the first goal for Gillingham in the 64th minute, then Vadaine Oliver added another in the 73rd minute. Accrington Stanley is looking for direction having 4 win and 5 losses in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, 12th placed Cheltenham Town, recorded a 1-4 loss against Sheffield Wednesday. Alfie May scored the first goal for Cheltenham Town in the 4th minute, then Massimo Luongo tied it up for Sheffield Wednesday in the 7th minute But fortunately they were able to complete the comaback in the 58th minute on a goal by Lee Gregory. Cheltenham Town is looking for direction having earned 14 points in their last 10 matches.
In their last match together, in Jonny-rocks Stadium, Cheltenham Town won by a score of 1 to 0. Kyle Vassell struck first for Cheltenham Town in the 79th minute, and with that single goal the scoring was complete. Neither team could manage anything else At the end of 90 a dissapointed Accrington Stanley couldn’t manage to score, and Cheltenham Town took the shutout win.
Cheltenham Town’s most prolific scorer has been Alfie May. The English midfielder has netted 3 goals over the last five matches. Tommy Leigh and Rosaire Longelo-Mbule are the top scorers for Accrington Stanley in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
