AFC Wimbledon - Gillingham predictions and free betting tips [12/03/2024]

English football is arguably a spectacle that begs attention, providing not only emotional thrills and vibrant memories, but it also sparks intrigue even amongst those who aren't dedicated fans. On the 12th of March in League 1, England's third tier division, at the "Cherry Red Records" stadium, "Gillingham" will compete against "Wimbledon". 

"Wimbledon"

The team spent 6 years in League 1, but in the 2021/2022 season, they ranked 23rd and descended to League 2. Last year, they miraculously evaded relegation to the National League by clinching the 21st spot. The current situation looks promising as the lads are seated comfortable in the 8th position on the tournament table.

After a slim defeat to "Crawley Town", they lost to "Doncaster" (0:1). However, they bounced back strong by bagging a minimal victory over "Milton Keynes". Their subsequent match against "Grimsby" ended in a goalless draw (0:0). And in their most recent game, they garnered an away win against "Notts County" (2:0).

"Gillingham"

The team had a consistent presence in League 1 for several years until they fell to League 2 two seasons ago. Since then, they've had few chances to climb back up as they landed 17th on the tournament table last season. However, their fortunes might just turn around this time as the "Gills" currently hold the 7th spot.

Following a goalless draw with "Stockport", they chalked up a victory against "Wrexham" (1:0). The next turn saw them clinch an away win from "Salford" (2:0). Their winning streak ended with a loss to "Barrow" (0:2). In their recent match, they had a draw with "Tranmere" (1:1).

Head to Head

The last face-off between "Notts County" and "Gillingham" was on the 28th of November 2023. The meeting saw "Gillingham" triumph with a score of (1:0).

Forecast

"Gillingham" has recently started dropping points again. While once victorious, the team is now experiencing losses and draws. On the contrary, "Wimbledon" have won twice recently, thus my suggestion is a wager on the home team's victory.

Over/Under Forecast

Given the teams' performance, a high-scoring game seems unlikely. Hence, I propose a wager on TU 2.5—Total Under 2.5 goals.
