Port Vale vs Notts County Prediction & Betting Tips - League Two
by Ian John in Football Predictions
Two in-form teams meet in League Two on a rare Thursday night game. The Valiants, Port Vale, host promotion rivals the Magpies, Notts County, in what should be an explosive match between the two. What will our prediction be for this exciting clash between two genuine top-six candidates?
Both sides come into this game in great form, and their league positions reflect that. Port Vale lie sixth in the table after 29 games, amassing 49 points, just three points outside the automatic promotion spots. Notts County occupies one of those places, lying second in the table, six points behind Walsall, with 53 points from their 29 matches played.
After going seven league games without a win from the end of November to January, Port Vale’s form improved in the New Year. They’ve won three and drawn three of their six games played since. Most recently, they drew 1-1 away to Chesterfield before beating Accrington Stanley 2-1 at home and at the weekend, they shared six goals in a 3-3 draw away to Swindon.
Notts County is in equally good shape, winning all three of their games and eight of their last ten games (D1, L1). Their last trio of wins came in a 1-0 home win over Carlisle, then a 2-1 away win at Gillingham and then this past weekend saw the Magpies earn a 2-0 win over Morecambe at their Meadow Lane home.
