Crewe Alexandra host Rochdale at the Mornflake Stadium at 3pm on Saturday, with the unbeaten but draw-prone hosts looking to turn stalemates into wins.
Our Crewe Alexandra vs Rochdale predictions and betting tips examine a League Two meeting between a Crewe side yet to lose and a Rochdale team that has never beaten them in recent memory. With the Railwaymen drawing so often, the stalemate markets are front of mind.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson has zeroed in on a Crewe side who keep drawing and a fixture that rarely produces a winner.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Both teams to score | 8/11 (Betfred) | Crewe remain unbeaten but have drawn six of their ten games, and three of their last five finished 1-1, so goals at both ends have been a regular feature of their afternoons. Rochdale arrive in decent nick, having won three of their last five and scored in most of those, and this fixture has produced goals for both sides before. With the Railwaymen conceding in half their games and Rochdale a threat on their day, both teams getting on the scoresheet looks the likeliest route to a typically even contest. |
| The draw | 11/4 (Betfred) | Few teams draw as often as Crewe, who have shared the points in six of their ten matches and remain unbeaten without winning more than four times. Rochdale have an awkward recent history here too, failing to beat Crewe in any of the last four meetings, three of which ended level. With the home side set up to be hard to break down and the visitors content to grind out results, another stalemate is very much on the cards, and 11/4 is a tempting price given how this one usually plays out. |

How Crewe Alexandra go into the game
Crewe sit third on 18 points and are one of only three sides in the division yet to taste defeat, though six draws from ten games have blunted their promotion push. Their last outing was a 1-0 win at Swindon that kept the unbeaten run intact.
Home form reads two wins and three draws, with the Railwaymen conceding just five at the Mornflake Stadium, so they remain a tough nut to crack in front of their own fans.
How Rochdale go into the game
Rochdale travel to Cheshire sitting tenth on 14 points, having picked up form with three wins in their last five overall. Their last outing was a 1-1 draw at Tranmere that extended a solid recent run.
On the road the Dale have been steady rather than spectacular, with one win and two draws from five away games, and they will need to be at their best to end a poor recent record against Crewe.
