A Sports Betting Pick by ArmchairPunter
Football : England: League Two
Venue: Mornflake Stadium
Saturday 16th November 2024, 1500hrs
Crewe Alexandra extended their unbeaten run in League Two to six matches last weekend with a solid point gained in a 1-1 draw away from home at 2nd placed Walsall which helped the upcoming hosts remain in 5th place in the English fourth tier table.
Three wins along with points gained in three draws have shown Crewe Alexandra have made themselves a tough team to beat so far this season and indeed, The Railwaymen have suffered just three losses within their opening 14 league matches this term.
Early back-to-back defeats to Barrow and Chesterfield saw Crewe Alexandra produce a poor start to the season but recent victories against Gillingham, Fleetwood Town and Tranmere Rovers should give the hosts a welcome lift, especially as the hosts are unbeaten in their last six home games.
3rd placed Notts County are also enjoying a solid sequence of results in League Two as The Magpies bring a five-game unbeaten run into this top five clash at the Mornflake Stadium which includes recording recent wins against AFC Wimbledon and Harrogate Town.
In addition, Notts County have picked up points in draws with local rivals, Chesterfield, as well as stalemates with Barrow and Doncaster Rovers as well, so the visitors are expected to provide Crewe with stubborn resistance.
Notts County have been handed just two defeats so far this season which came following a promising start to this new campaign which saw The Magpies put together an opening six-game unbeaten run which included picking up four wins on the trot.
Since the last of the fourth win on the trot (a 4-2 win away at Bromley), Notts County have picked up just three wins though from their subsequent nine games overall but results on the road have been pretty steady, being unbeaten in their previous eight away games.
The Betting Verdict
Crewe Alexandra have won four of their last six home games while Notts County have drawn five of their last eight away games, so Crewe are capable of holding their own here.
The Pick :
Crewe Alex. 1-1 Notts Co
