Cheltenham vs FC Halifax Town prediction
Cheltenham Town took the lead inside a minute away from home against Tranmere Rovers last week before succumbing to a 3-1 loss to the Merseysiders in that one. The Robins remain tucked inside the top seven and the play-off places in League Two under the management of Steve Cotterill.
FC Halifax Town sit in the top half of the National League after they defeated Yeovil Town by two goals to nil in Yorkshire last weekend. That came after back-to-back defeats to Southend United and Barrow had followed their 3-2 defeat of South Shields in the fourth qualifying round a few weeks ago.
Cheltenham have been a fairly fun watch this season while Halifax themselves pack a punch and so both teams scoring seems a decent bet for this one.
