Morecambe vs Yeovil Town Prediction

Right then, let's have a proper look at this bottom-of-the-table clash! Morecambe sitting 22nd with 16 points, while Yeovil are just above them in 18th with 20 points. Both sides are struggling more than a vegetarian at a braai, but one of them looks particularly toothless up front.

Morecambe have shown some fight recently, picking up 4 points from their last 3 games. They kept a clean sheet in that 2-0 win over Brackley Town and even managed to score 2 against 4th-placed York in a 4-2 loss. Their 4-0 hammering of Boston United shows they can turn it on when they want. At home, they've been decent enough - scoring 1.25 per game and conceding 1.5.

But Yeovil... ag man, their attack is worse than trying to start a fire in the rain! They've scored only 5 goals in their last 10 matches - that's 0.5 per game! And get this - they haven't scored in their last THREE matches! Lost 0-1 to Southend, 0-1 to Scunthorpe, and 0-2 to Wealdstone. Away from home, they're even worse, averaging just 0.6 goals per game.

The head-to-head tells us Morecambe usually have their number - 5 wins out of 8 meetings, and at home it's 3 wins from 4. Historically these games have been high-scoring, but that was when both teams could actually find the net!

Yeovil's recent form is shocking - 0 points from their last 9 available. They're creating about as much as a lazy lion on a hot day. Morecambe just need to turn up and they should have enough to keep another clean sheet here.

Key Points:

• Yeovil haven't scored in their last 3 matches

• Yeovil averaging only 0.5 goals per game overall

• Morecambe kept a clean sheet in their last home game (2-0 vs Brackley)

• Yeovil's away attack is even worse (0.6 goals per game)

• Morecambe have won 75% of home H2H meetings against Yeovil

• Morecambe showing some fight with 4 points from last 3 games

Look, I'm not usually one for backing defensive stuff - I'd rather watch goals than a chess match. But Yeovil's attack is so non-existent it's actually funny! They couldn't score if the goal was the size of a swimming pool. Morecambe at home should be able to keep them out easily enough.
