We're keeping our focus on English football. In the upcoming League 2, Sutton United and Accrington are due for a showdown at the "VBS Community" Stadium. This match is expected to be tense up to the final whistle, with no team willing to back down.
They've had a dreaded season, with a current 24th position in the league table after 39 games. They finally managed to claim a victory over Notts County with a 4:3 score in the 35th round. However, they later lost to Tranmere by a narrow margin. In their following match, they played a draw with Grimsby (1:1). After that, they were overpowered by Crewe Alexandra (0:1). But they managed to pull off a win away from home against Forest Green in the latest round (1:0).
They spent the past 5 years in League 1 but were unfortunately relegated last season after finishing in the 23rd place. Currently, Accrington ranks 16th, implying that a return to the third division might take some time.
In the 34th round, they lost to Walsall with a 1:2 score. They suffered another defeat in the hands of Wrexham (0:4) in their next match. This was followed by another loss to Bradford (0:3). Nevertheless, they rebounded with a victory over Swindon Town (2:1). In their most recent match, they shared the spoils with Notts County (2:2).
The last direct duel between Accrington and Sutton took place on 16 September 2023 and ended with a 4:1 victory for Accrington.
In this face-off, I'd be willing to take a gamble on Accrington to win with zero handicap. They have been showing promising results in recent matches. Sutton has the worst stats this season, and they are not considerably strong on their own ground.
I believe that the teams won't be able to produce a high-scoring game, so I suggest betting on a TU of 2.5 goals.
