Gillingham vs Wrexham Prediction: Wrexham aiming for automatic promotion

Gillingham will welcome Wrexham at Priestfield Stadium in Game Week 35 of the English League Two. Wrexham would be looking to seal their place for automatic promotion. Who will come out on top after 90 minutes?

Gillingham form

Gillingham managed to secure a goalless draw against league leaders Stockport County at home, after suffering a narrow 1-0 defeat against Newport County just three days prior. Both teams struggled to create good scoring opportunities, with only one shot on target each throughout the match. Gillingham's current form of only one win in their last seven league games needs to improve if they hope to make a strong push for the playoffs in the remaining part of the season. They are currently in eighth place in the League Two standings, tied on points with Harrogate Town in seventh and five points behind sixth-placed Barrow. Despite being unbeaten in their last five home games, Gillingham has only managed to draw their last four matches at home. Their only win in their last seven league games at Priestfield Stadium was a narrow 1-0 victory over Sutton United. Gillingham will look back at their dominant 5-1 win over Wrexham in October 1999 at Priestfield for inspiration as they prepare to face them once again.

Gillingham Predicted Lineup

Turner; Hutton, Masterson, Ehmer, Ogie, Clark; Dieng, Coleman, Williams; Nadesan, Hawkins

Wrexham form

Wrexham was not able to continue their winning streak after defeating Sutton and Notts County in consecutive matches, as they had to settle for a 1-1 draw against MK Dons on Tuesday. James McClean scored in the 22nd minute, but Daniel Kemp equalized just four minutes later. Both teams had a player sent off in the second half, with Dean Lewington and William Boyle receiving red cards. Despite this, Wrexham remains in third place in League Two, three points behind leaders Stockport. While they have been strong at home, earning the most points in the league, their away form has been lacking with only five wins in 16 matches, scoring just 15 goals. Wrexham's next matches will be away from home, starting with a game against Gillingham, where they have struggled in recent visits.

Wrexham Predicted Lineup

Okonkwo; Cleworth, O'Connell, Tozer; Bolton, Young, Cannon, Lee, McClean; Mullin, Palmer
