Crawley vs Tranmere Top Predictions and Best Odds

Time is running out for Crawley who dropped into the relegation zone after another bad performance earlier in the week.

Crawley to Win

Even though they haven't won a game in four matches, for this Crawley vs Tranmere prediction, the home team is destined to win a match that would give them a push toward the safety zone when it comes to their ranking situation. Tranmere won their first h2h match of the season, but that won't be relevant for this particular match as both sides are in a different set of circumstances compared to earlier in the season when they first met. Crawley is desperately trying to avoid being relegated while Tranmere is settled in the middle of the standings. Crawley's home form is a reason for optimism as they are unbeaten while playing in front of their fans in the past five matches.

Under 2.5 Goals

There is a certain contrast between these teams ahead of the Crawley vs Tranmere match. The hosts are one of the best over 2.5 goals teams while Tranmere is aiming in the other direction having the second-most ‘under' games this season. Crawley had three matches of fewer than three goals scored in the last five games while for the season they had 20 ‘under' games. Tranmere played in 30 matches that had a limit of two goals scored while also going four straight matches with under 2.5 goals. Their h2h record is even clearer when it comes to this pick, four out of their last five encounters went under the line.

Crawley vs Tranmere Lineups, Team News, and Preview

Crawley

After managing to avoid the relegation zone for some time, that same time has run out for Crawley. Their second loss in three games connected to Hartlepool's win on Monday brought down Crawley's ambitions into the red zone. There is still time for the home team on this day to save themselves, but right now they are not depending only on their fortunes. Ludwig Francillette, Teddy Jenks, and Jordon Mutch are long-term absentees for the home side.

Potential lineup: Addai, Johnson, Ogungbo, Ransom, Mason, Roles, Powell, Khaleel, Fellows, Nadesan, Chukwuemeka.

Tranmere

The visiting team doesn't have to worry about being relegated, but they also can't be promoted, even though the playoff stage. However, they can mess with other clubs' ambitions and goals for the remaining five games of the season. Before beating Swindon on Monday, Tranmere was without a victory for six straight matches.

Potential lineup: Hewelt, Bristow, Turnbull, Davies, Cogley, Hawkes, O'Connor, Hendry, Chalmers, Saunders, Hemmings.

Starting Lineups

Starting lineups are usually released 60 minutes before kick-off.

Player to Watch: Dom Telford

Crawley's prized asset hasn't scored in the last three games but still leads his team in scoring with nine goals alongside three assists. Telford's form is the key to Crawley ambitions of avoiding relegation, and without his goalscoring efforts, they won't be able to save themselves from the worst possible scenario.
