Squeaky bum time at the business end of the season! My favourite!
I've been studying the fixtures this weekend with great detail and excitement; there's been a few managerial changes late on which could throw all sorts of cats amongst pigeons and a few other clubs unrolling their beach towels. My tips as follows:
Full time result & BTTS
Swindon vs Yeovil - not far for The Glovers to travel here and under new management. Swindon are still in with a shot of the playoffs but I don't think they'll get over the line. Yeovil have lost their last 6 on the road - but nothing ever lasts forever and I think this is the one they win.
Fleetwood vs Southend - similar sort of logic applies here: Fleetwood are well safe and have no chance of the playoffs either. Southend, on the other hand have a new man in charge but have never looked terrible this season, even though they find themselves hovering above the drop. They've lost 4 on the spin - they'll win tomorrow.
Wrexham vs Braintree Town - Wrexham will win this easily but because they have to and because Braintree have scored in 4/5 of their last games despite being rock bottom. I think they'll score tomorrow.
Dumbarton vs Brechin - we dip into the Scottish League One this weekend where these two are going neck and neck to survive. I think Brechin's away form this season will see them prevail.
Cheers
