📊 Form Guide
Gillingham
LDWDLL
Gillingham will be hoping to return to winning ways here after a 1-0 League Two defeat in their last game at the hands of Bradford City.
Brad Halliday (43') was the scorer for Bradford City.
It’s been a rare occasion in recent games that Gillingham have managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes. In fact, Gillingham have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous 6 clashes, shipping 11 goals during that time.
Their prior results show that Gillingham:
- are unbeaten in their previous 9 league matches at home. Visiting teams have certainly not had an easy time of it here.
- have not won at home in their last 3 league games.
Barrow
DDWWLL ⚖
Since being defeated in their last game at the hands of Swindon Town in League Two competition, Barrow will be aiming to make amends here.
Williams Kokolo (35') and Paul Glatzel (45') scored for Swindon Town.
Pete Wild's Barrow have had reason to celebrate scoring a total of 6 times throughout their latest sextet of matches. The aggregate of goals that have been scored against them during the equivalent period equals 6.
Going into this one, Barrow are without an away win for the past 7 league matches.
👥 Head to head
The last league game featuring these clubs was League Two match day 21 on 05/03/2024 which finished with the scoreline of Barrow 2-0 Gillingham.
The match was refereed by Scott Tallis.
📋 Team News: Gillingham
The Gillingham boss Stephen Clemence does not have any fitness concerns whatsoever before this game owing to a completely injury-free squad available to choose from.
We think that The Gills should kick off with a 4-2-3-1 formation for this game with John Ruddy, Ethan Laird, Dion Sanderson, Emanuel Aiwu, Emmanuel Longelo, Krystian Bielik, Seung-ho Paik, Koji Miyoshi, Alex Pritchard, Keshi Anderson and Jay Stansfield.
🗞️ Team News: Barrow
Thanks to a fully healthy squad to choose from, the Barrow boss Pete Wild has no fitness concerns to report coming into this game.
There’s a good chance that The Bluebirds will likely begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 formation, going with Brad Collins, Joel Latibeaudiere, Bobby Thomas, Liam Kitching, Jake Bidwell, Josh Eccles, Ben Sheaf, Haji Wright, Callum O'Hare, Kasey Palmer and Ellis Simms.
💡 Prediction
Our feeling is that Barrow might need a bit of good fortune to get anything against this Gillingham side who we think will likely score at least once to put them ahead.
We’re therefore seeing a very competitive encounter with a 1-0 win for Gillingham at the end of this game.
It should be a good one.
