History of the Gillingham v Cheltenham Town fixture

Cheltenham T. face a trip to Gillingham at Priestfield Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to break their duck against the hosts. Both of the previous encounters have resulted in a drawn game.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in September 2006, the The Gills carving out a narrow 2 - 1 victory in a League One match.

Recent respective form guides

Gillingham have only collected 1 win and 3 draws from the last six home games played. The goals for column just outweighs the goals against over this period, 6 to 5.

Cheltenham T.'s away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While the Robins have hit 6 goals, 11 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Gillingham find themselves struggling down in 18th position in the league having picked up 31 points from their 28 matches. Cheltenham T. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 30 points from 27 matches.
