Barrow - Gillingham predictions and free betting tips [05/03/2024]

We continue to bet on English football. In the upcoming League 2 round, "Barrow" and "Gillingham" will meet at the "Holker Street" stadium. The match promises to be tense until the last minute, and nobody will want to give in. Players from both teams are ready to do anything to prove their strength and win the game. It's time to work out what we need to bet on to come out victorious.

"Barrow"

Not long ago, "Barrow" played in the National League. In the 2019/2020 season they earned the championship and moved up to League 2. After that, they completed two years battling for survival, occupying the 20th place. This season, however, the team ranks 8th, a position that could help them advance to League 1.

After their victory over "Milton Keynes" in a 1:0 match, they suffered a defeat from "Wimbledon" in the next game (0:2). Subsequently, the team surprisingly lost to "Forest Green" with a score of 1:2. In the latest round, they conceded to "Salford" in quite a thrilling game (3:5).

"Gillingham"

The team had been playing in League 1 for several consecutive years, but they relegated to League 2 two seasons ago. Since then, they haven't had good chances to come back as they took the 17th place in the table last season. However, right now, everything might turn out fine for them as "Gills" now sit in 7th place.

After a draw with "Swindon Town" (2:2), the team went down in a minimal defeat from "Newport". In the next match, they had a goalless draw with "Stockport". Afterwards, they secured a win against "Wrexham" (1:0). In the latest round, they managed to beat "Salford" away, ending the game with a score of 2:0.

Past Encounters

The last face-off between "Gillingham" and "Barrow" took place on April 1, 2024, and ended with a score of 2:1 in favour of "Barrow".

Forecast

In my opinion, there's no favourite in this clash. "Barrow" has been suffering defeats in recent games, and "Gillingham's" away performance has been rather inconsistent. However, I would place a bet on a nil handicap of the guests. The unlucky series of "Barrow" has been lasting for quite some time, and all defeats were virtually from outsiders.

Total Prediction

I'm confident that the teams will be able to show a high-scoring game, therefore, I suggest betting on a total over 2.5.
