After a Jekyll & Hyde performance against Darlington, the Robins still need a point to confirm their position in League Two for next season. They face an Aldershot team pushing to leave the division at the opposite end.
Vital Quotes:
Mark Yates (taken from bbc.co.uk/football): ‘It’s important to finish the season properly. To go nine games unbeaten would be a decent feat in itself. You can’t hide the fact that we are where we are but hopefully a disaster has been averted.
We let our standards slip slightly for the first half an hour the other night. You can’t give teams a one-goal start, never mind three.
But credit to them, they came back and displayed a lot of courage and commitment. They showed they are a group that wants to do it for the club. That’s been vitally important in the run-in.’
Cheltenham Town Team News:
Michael Townsend, Josh Low & Shane Duff are all doubtful. Danny Andrew has returned to Peterborough, whilst Dave Bird looks set to miss out.
Player to watch: Michael Pook
Took the captain’s armband on Tuesday night when Shane Duff went off and led by example. Has been Cheltenham’s best player in the 2nd half of the season and will look to help the Robins to definite safety today.
Aldershot Team News:
Ben Herd is out with an ankle injury, but Marlon Jackson should feature up front. Andy Sandell and John Halls could feature
Player to watch: Dean Morgan
A proven performer in the fourth tier, the on-loan striker will be looking to cement the Shots play-off spot this afternoon.
Match Prediction:
A closely contested 1-1 draw to secure Cheltenham’s football league future.
