Recent respective form guides

Cheltenham Town need to improve on their recent home record of just 3 draws from the previous six. While Robins have scored 6, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.

Crewe Alex.'s away form is none too clever either, winning 2 of the last six, but losing the other 4. While the The Railwaymen have hit 7 goals, 12 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Cheltenham T. are currently lying in 20th place in Coca-Cola League Two having mustered a points tally of 15 from their 14 matches played. Crewe Alex. find themselves struggling down in 18th position in the league having picked up 15 points from their 14 matches.
