Chesterfield are at home to Gillingham with faint hopes of reaching the play-offs. The Spireites are 7 points adrift of Grimsby who occupy the final play-off position, but Chesterfield have a game in hand, which is Gillingham on Tuesday night, and if they win then the gap obviously is 4 points, with 15 points left to play for.
A must win for the home side.
If you look at Gillingham's recent form then you will be very tempted to back the draw at 13/5. Gillingham, with new boss Gareth Ainsworth in charge, have draw all of their last 5 league games. Gillingham have also drawn 7 of their last 10 away games.
But we're tipping Chesterfield to win this one. They have found form, albeit they were trounced 4-0 at Tranmere at the weekend, a resurgent Tranmere it must be said, and now doubt Paul Cook will be thankful they are playing so soon after to get that game out of their system.
Before that defeat, the Spireites had won 5 in 6 games and had conceded in 3 of the wins, and that is our selection.
Chesterfield are odds on, 5/6 to win, which is too short, we too are tempted by the draw, but we're boosting the price on the home side by backing them to win and both teams to score at 29/10 at William Hill.
Enjoy the football, good luck with your bets and please gamble responsibly.
