Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Chesterfield to win11/10 (William Hill)Chesterfield have won their last two, 2-1 at Oldham and 2-0 against York, and sit eighth, a point behind Cheltenham. They also won both meetings with Cheltenham last season without conceding. Cheltenham have scored plenty but conceded in all seven league games, with 11 goals against. At 11/10, the visitors are worth backing to edge an open game.
Lee Bonis to score anytime13/8 (Sky Bet)Lee Bonis has scored in each of Chesterfield’s last two games, against Oldham and York, and has three League Two goals this season. Cheltenham are one of only three sides in the division yet to keep a clean sheet and have conceded 11. Sky Bet’s 13/8 is a generous price for a player in scoring form against a defence that has conceded in every game.
