The first League Two game of the weekend takes place on Thursday night this week as Crewe Alexandra host Cheltenham Town in a match now crucial to the Railwaymen’s hopes of a playoff spot. Can the home side pick up the three points they need, or will the Robins end their four-game losing streak at the Mornflake Stadium? Check out our prediction for the game below!
A run of five games against promotion or playoff teams has seen Crewe pick up five points from the last 15 available. That leaves them ninth in the League Two table with 61 points from 41 games, four points outside the playoff spots. Cheltenham’s run of four straight defeats has left them in 16th position (50 points from 41 games).
Crewe’s tough run of games began with two draws, 1-1 at home to Doncaster and 0-0 away to Notts County. They then lost 1-0 at home to second-placed Port Vale, before beating Grimsby 2-0 in their last home match. At the weekend, they went down 2-0 away to League Two leaders Bradford City.
Cheltenham have won just one of the last ten games, drawing three and losing six, without scoring a goal in any of those losses. They have been beaten 2-0 in all their last three games away to Tranmere and Morecambe and then last weekend at home to Doncaster Rovers.

Our Crewe Alexandra vs Cheltenham Town Prediction
Our prediction for the Crewe Alexandra vs. Cheltenham Town League Two match is: Crewe Alexandra wins the match.
Unusually, the data for this game paints a somewhat negative picture for both teams, especially Cheltenham who have lost four in a row without scoring. Crewe's poor form has seen them drop out of the playoff spots, but their last five games have all been against teams ranked seventh or higher in the League Two table. Against struggling Cheltenham, we expect Crewe to eke out a win.
