🗞️ Team News: Forest Green Rovers
The Forest Green Rovers manager Steve Cotterill will be thankful to have no fitness concerns at all coming into this clash thanks to a fully healthy squad ready to go.
We think that The Green Devils may well kick off with a 4-3-3 system, beginning the first half with Shamal George, Michael Nottingham, Ayo Obileye, Michael Devlin, Sean Kelly, Jamie Brandon, Jason Holt, Stephen Kelly, Scott Pittman, Bruce Anderson and Daniel MacKay.
ℹ️ Team News: Notts County
In an otherwise full-strength squad, there is just the lone fitness issue for the Notts County gaffer Stuart Maynard to contend with. Geraldo Bajrami (Cruciate ligament injury) won’t be playing here.
From our viewpoint, The Magpies seem most likely to elect for a 3-5-2 lineup, starting the game with Ross Laidlaw, Connor Randall, Jack Baldwin, Ryan Leak, Michee Efete, Eli King, Victor Loturi, Yan Dhanda, George Harmon, Josh Sims and Simon Murray.
🔮 Prediction
Our feeling is that Forest Green Rovers have it in them to put a goal past this Notts County team, although just one goal probably won’t quite be enough to prevent defeat.
We’re going for a 1-2 advantage for Notts County at the end of the match. Let’s wait and see how it plays out.
