Matchday six in the EFL League Two kicks off at the Peninsula Stadium on Friday night, with Salford City taking on Cheltenham Town. The Ammies are in ninth place, while the Robins are bottom of the table after five games. Let’s get into the match prediction.
After finishing in the top half of the standings last season, Salford will be hoping to get themselves into playoff qualification territory this term.
The Ammies were beaten 1-0 on the road by Walsall last weekend, but that followed three wins on the bounce. The last time the side won three in a row was either side of the New Year.
The hosts have split their two home games, one win and one loss, this term. Last season, they earned 35 points in 23 league games at the Peninsula Stadium (W10 D5 L8).
Meanwhile, Cheltenham’s first season back in League Two was a forgettable one, and this one is already looking likely to be even worse.
Five games into the new campaign, and the Robins are the only team in the division that has yet to get off the mark, having lost all five matches. The most recent was a 3-0 defeat to Cardiff in midweek.
The hosts have only scored one goal to date and conceded 11. They have failed to score in five of their last seven away league matches.
