Shrewsbury odds: 29/20 (2.45) – 37.0%

Draw odds: 21/10 (3.10) – 31.0%

Cheltenham odds: 39/20 (2.95) – 32.0%

Under 1.5 Goals is one of our favorite betting tips this week, as the odds standing at 73/50 (2.46) are quite tempting indeed. Shrewsbury have the home-field advantage, and this makes coach Taylor’s boys the expected winners ahead of this clash. Meanwhile, poor Robbins accumulated only a 32.0% win probability at 39.20 (2.95).

Shrewsbury vs Cheltenham Lineups & Team News

Shrewsbury

Salop had a somewhat better 2022/23 season than the Robbins. Sure, neither side got promoted, but there was a five-point gap between them at the end of the campaign, which is surely another plus in favor of our Shrewsbury vs Cheltenham prediction. Coach Matthey Taylor’s troops showed class to record three consecutive 1-1 draws in the pre-season friendlies as well. They’ll want to finally get a victory after this winless streak.

Predicted lineup – Marosi (GK), Flanagan, Dunkley, Moore, Bennett, Winchester, Leahy, Shipley, Phillips, Bowman & Street

Cheltenham

With a goal difference of -16, the Robbins can count their blessings that they didn’t get relegated last season. In fact, the team finished surprisingly high on the table. We know coach Elliott will want to turn things around this season, but we can’t see it happening at New Meadow Stadium.

Predicted lineup – Southwood (GK), Jackson, Long, Freestone, Ferry, Taylor, Broom, Bonds, Sercombe, May & Keena

Player to Watch: Aidan Keena

If it weren’t for Aidan Keena’s goalscoring capabilities, we truly might have seen the Robbins sink to League Two last season. The 24-year-old is one of coach Wade Elliott’s top finishers in recent years, so it’s not surprising we have him down as the player to watch in this Shrewsbury vs Cheltenham prediction.

Aidan scored six goals for his club last season, and with goalscorer-in-chief Alfie May transferred to Charlton Athletic, we’re sure that Aidan Keena will have a far more important role to play for the Robbins in 2023.
