Oldham Athletic manager Keith Curle has to currently contend with reduced team options. Jordan Clarke (Knee Injury) and Danny Rogers (Shoulder Injury) will not be playing here.

We’ve got the feeling that Mansfield Town will likely fashion enough chances to find the net more than once while possibly not conceding when they come up against Oldham Athletic, who might well find it a difficult task scoring a goal of their own.

We’re therefore anticipating a controlled 2-0 win for Mansfield Town by the time that the referee blows the final whistle.
