Gillingham – Crawley Town

Gillingham host Crawley Town in what promises to be a decisive clash for the home side, who sit 11th with nine points after two wins, three draws and a single defeat, boasting a modest +2 goal difference (8‑6). Crawley, languishing at 23rd with just four points from one win, one draw and four losses, sit on a –5 goal deficit (6‑11) and will need to turn their fortunes around quickly. The disparity in form and goal margins suggests Gillingham should feel confident of extending their unbeaten run, while Crawley will be desperate for points to avoid slipping further down the table. A victory for the home team could solidify their mid‑table stability, whereas a draw or win for Crawley might provide a vital lifeline in the relegation battle.
