There are 6 points separating the two clubs as eigth place Gillingham get set to host fifth place Crewe.

Even if Gillingham end up netting seven goals in terms of value-betting, they cannot be picked.

The hosts are widely picked to win but they are certainly not unbeatable. When playing at home Gillingham's displays should be reviewed. They've scored one or less goals in 10 of their last 11 games on their own turf which is a number that will give supporters of the upset some confidence. Gillingham's performances when under the cosh have caused them a few concerns. They have conceded at least once in all of their last 5 matches. If they reveal any selection issues here they could be in trouble.

Crewe have actually secured the win in 7 of their last 14 away matches. They've scored three or more goals in 7 of their last 18 away fixtures. In defence they have also posted some good numbers. They've conceded no more than once in 6 of their last 8 away matches. If the away side puts everything together they can secure an unlikely win here.

To be honest it may be a surprise just to see the visitors come away in stalemate. Gillingham are the favoured side but things will get interesting if Crewe can get them on the counter-attack. In which case the BTTS Yes looks good.
