Wimbledon vs Salford Top Predictions and Best Odds
Salford will need to recoup quickly after losing on Friday, they are in a situation where they can further hurt their chances of a playoff promotion spot.
Contents
Draw
Playing two matches in four days has its challenges, but for Salford, there is no other option but to go all in against Wimbledon. After losing to Leyton Orient they dropped out of the top eight positions and now the team needs to figure out how to get a positive result against a tricky opponent who doesn't have big ambitions for the final few games of the season. Still, for this Wimbledon vs Salford prediction, the draw might be a pick to go, and a result that would feel like a disappointment for the visiting team because of their ultimate goal for the remainder of the year. The first game of the season between these teams ended without goals being scored.
Both Teams to Score – Yes
The reasonable pick for the second prediction in this Wimbledon vs Salford duel. The visiting team has played an incredible nine straight BTTS matches before losing 2-0 against Leyton Orient in their last game. Wimbledon has a more relaxed approach toward the last few games of the season, they played three games with both teams scoring at least a goal from their last five encounters. The only match between these sides ended without a goalscorer when they met in the first part of the season.

Wimbledon vs Salford Lineups, Team News, and Preview
Wimbledon
The home team's season hasn't gone according to plans with their loss total ascending in recent weeks. They are safe from relegation, but there was an ambition that this side could challenge for a promotion playoffs spot which hasn't happened. The team is in good shape, health-wise, for the second match they will have to play in only four days.
Provisional lineup: Broome, Ogundere, Nightingale, Pierre, Brown, Woodyard, Pearson, Little, Chislett, Jaiyesimi, Al-Hamadi.
Salford
Salford's ambitions are higher at the moment, they have broken into the top seven of the standings for a short while but hope they can even challenge for a place in the top three which would grant them a direct promotion to League One for the next season. Unfortunately, a loss to Leyton Orient hurt those chances. There aren't serious injury issues for the team at present which will come as a relief to coach Neil Wood who is facing increased pressure.
Provisional lineup: Cairns, Touray, Leak, Mariappa, Shephard, Watt, Mallan, Barry, Galbraith, Bolton, Hendry.
Starting Lineups
Starting lineups are usually released 60 minutes before kick-off.
Player to Watch: Conor McAleny
The 30-year-old striker has been playing at a high level this season leading the team in scoring with nine goals and adding a couple of assists to his resume. He appeared in 25 games, and what is notable about his performances this season is his perfect disciplinary record. When it comes to his stats, they are all the more impressive because he played just over 40 percent of available minutes starting only on a few occasions.
