Thursday Football

Lewes v Rushden and Diamonds


League Form
Rushden are currently 16th in the league, and Lewes are laying low in 22nd. Rushden's last match was at home to Crawley Town, they were defeated 1-0 with a goal deep into injury time and they played well against Crawley considering they are in 3rd place. Rusden haven't won in 6 games in the league. Lewes however are yet to win a match this season so far and have only recorded 3 draws in 8 games.

Lewes Home Form
Lewes have been poor at home this year with 1 draw and 3 defeats. They have the worst home record in the league. They have managed to conceded 10 goals in 3 games at home and only scoring once in a 4-1 defeat.

Rushden and Diamonds Away form
It has to be noted that Rushden play better away from home, with 1 win, 2 draws and 1 defeat. Their goal difference isn't too bad either by scoring 4 goals and conceding 4.

So I and going with a Rushden and Diamonds win, they don't have a bad goal scoring record and aren't too bad away from home. I think they should prove to be too good for Lewes who will be looking for their first win but with their defensive record I think Rushden will do the business.

Rushden and Diamonds win at 8/11
Ladbrokes

Dundalk v Kildare County 1/4

Dundalk go into this game being on top of the league and also they are undefeated in 6 games at home in the league.

Kildare how ever are rock bottom of the league, they have conceded 46 goals in 25 games and have only managed to score 23 themselves.

A bit of team news from rte.ie (click for full article) should be taken into consideration as well

"Dundalk will be without joint top scorer Paul Crowley for the visit of Kildare County"

"Kildare manager John Ryan will not relish the prospect of visiting the top side in the division, an injury crisis adds to worries. Craig Mooney (groin), Paul Donnolly (knee) and Colin Osborne (ankle) are all absent"

So a Dundalk win at 1/4

So for my tonight i will be doing a double with Dundalk and Rushden. At ladbrokes this will be at evens so am going to put on £5

Good Luck to everyone on tonights games
