Wimbledon to win it

AFC Wimbledon have had a fairly decent run of form recently; they are unbeaten in their last three matches across all competitions. This is due, in part, to their defence; as Wimbledon did not concede a single goal in their last three games. On the other hand, Gillingham have not enjoyed their best run of form lately; they suffered five losses in their last eight matches. It's important to note that Gillingham tend to fall short when they go up against Wimbledon; they have no wins in the last four encounters between these two, with just one win in their last seven clashes. Considering Wimbledon have the advantage of playing at home, we believe they'll win this match.

At least one side will blank

We've already established that Wimbledon did not concede in their last three games; we should also point out that they've also struggled to find the net sometimes. In fact, Wimbledon blanked in five of their last six matches. Because of their lack of goals, most of Wimbledon's games usually don't feature goals at both ends; at least one team did not score in all of Wimbledon's last seven games. It has been the same case with Gillingham's recent matches; as one team failed to score in six of their last seven games. With this in mind, one of these teams should blank.
