Fleetwood Town – Shrewsbury

Fleetwood Town secured a comfortable 2‑0 victory over Shrewsbury at Highbury Stadium, extending their unbeaten run to six games and consolidating their seventh‑place position with ten points. The win not only improved their goal difference to +3 (seven scored, four conceded) but also widened the gap to the relegation‑threatened Shrewsbury, who remain eighteenth with six points and a –6 goal difference. Shrewsbury’s campaign, already marred by four defeats, failed to produce any points from this encounter, leaving them still three points behind the safety zone. The result also tipped the head‑to‑head tally in Fleetwood’s favour this season, as they now hold the sole win in the two meetings between the clubs.
