On Wednesday evening, Gillingham host Wigan at Priestfield Stadium, in what could be a big game for both teams when it comes to their ambitions in League One this season.
Gillingham are one of the teams hoping to seal a play-off spot in League One this season. The Gills are just two points adrift of the top-six in the third tier of English football.
A four-game unbeaten run has aided their chances of a top-six finish. However, two straight draws against Doncaster Rovers and Hull City have also slightly set the home team back.
Striker Vadaine Oliver has been fine form of late, having scored four times in as many league appearances for the home team. The 29-year-old will be looking to add to that tally in this clash.
Gillingham are unbeaten in four home matches in League One, recording three wins in the process. The Gills have been prolific in recent matches on home soil in the third tier, scoring at least two goals in each of their four unbeaten matches.
Wigan are in trouble in the League One table, as the Latics are currently 22nd place in the table, but are just one point from safety after a recent poor run of league form.
Although the visitors have suffered just one defeat in their last five league outings, they have also failed to win in three League One games.
Wigan’s recent away record is inconsistent, as proven by the fact that they have lost three of their previous nine league matches on their travels.
Their recent away matches in the English third tier have been relatively high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in four of their last six games.
Forebet predicts that Gillingham will boost their top-six hopes and in the process dent Wigan’s hopes of securing their League One status for next season.
