Crawley Town vs Shrewsbury prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups - Oсtober 12, 2024
Crawley
Shrewsbury
On October 12th, "Broadfield Stadium" will host the 11th round of England’s League One, where "Crawley Town" will face "Shrewsbury". Here's an exclusive expert prediction from Dailysports.
Crawley Town
The team has spent the majority of the past few decades in League Two. They could have easily remained in the fourth division this season, but even a 7th-place finish in the spring was enough to secure a playoff spot—and it was the "Red Devils" who managed to win the playoff games.
As newcomers, they started the season in fiery fashion, winning both of their opening league matches and defeating "Swindon" 4-2 in the League Cup. But then, the momentum completely disappeared. Their cup run ended with a 0-4 loss to "Brighton" in September, and in the league, they’ve only managed a draw with "Stockport," losing all the other games, mostly without scoring. This includes their 0-1 loss to "Wycombe" in the last round.
Shrewsbury
The club has been striving to maintain its place in League One recently, consistently picking up enough points to avoid relegation. Last season, they finished safely in 19th place.
The fight for survival continues this season. In the League Cup, they only passed "Notts County" after a penalty shootout, only to lose 0-2 to "Bolton" afterward. In the league, they’ve earned points only against "Leyton Orient" (whom they defeated) and "Rotherham." In their latest match against "Bolton," they drew 2-2.
