👉 Our prediction is: Gillingham to win

In all honesty, there is no other result we can foresee for this match other than Gillingham to win outright, which is our betting tip.

Gillingham's strong form this season, particularly at home, is hard to overlook, as are Shrewsbury Town's shaky overall results and performances of late. And we expect the two sides to play true to form when they meet for their upcoming match.

👉 Our prediction is: Both teams don't score

Based on our analysis, we are confident that the best bet is to go 'no' on the Both Teams to Score market.

The matchup figures to be a tight, defensive one, with both teams desperate not to get caught out. That's why we see only one or none of the teams finding the back of the net in this encounter, which are the conditions needed to win the bet.
