Gainsborough vs StocktonPrediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

Goals have been in short supply for both of these teams, and that is the thread running through Gainsborough Trinity's home fixture against Stockton Town. Gainsborough are tenth on 3 points, having won once and lost once, their record reading three scored and two conceded: a 2-0 win at their own ground and a 1-2 defeat away. Stockton are nineteenth with 0 points and a start without a goal to their name: two narrow defeats, 0-1 at their own ground and 0-1 away, so nothing scored in two rounds and only two conceded. The competition sits at 2.57 goals a game, yet Stockton's two matches stopped at one goal each. Gainsborough too, the 2-0 at home aside, have kept the totals low, with five goals across their two fixtures. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above.
