Mansfield vs Accrington Prediction & Betting Tips (16 April)

Accrington have collected just two points from a possible 24 on the road of late, whilst they have failed to score more than a single goal in 14 consecutive top-flight trips. Mansfield, on the other hand, clearly know what they are doing on their own patch, winning six of their last seven league fixtures and outscoring their opponents by 19 goals to three across these wins.

Given their status as one of the powerhouses of the League Two, it is surprising to learn that Mansfield are currently on a run of 32 consecutive top-flight home fixtures in which under 3.5 goals have been netted. As for Accrington, 19 of their last 20 away matches at this level have followed the same pattern, so it would come as a shock to see four goals or more here.

Over the course of their last 19 League Two matches, Accrington have kept an impressive tally of 14 clean sheets, so finding a way through against Accrington can prove difficult. Given that just three of the most recent 13 top-flight fixtures involving Mansfield have served up goals at both ends of the pitch, it is hard to see much of a deviation from the script.
