The Iron will go into the weekend match at Torquay United as favourites, according to the league’s official betting partner, SkyBet.
Russ Wilcox’s men travel to the south-west looking to extend the record-breaking run under the Iron boss and they are valued at 21/20 to leave Plainmoor with three points.Meanwhile, the Gulls are the league’s bottom club and after sacking Alan Knill in January, Cleethorpes-born Chris Hargreaves was installed to steer the club away from relegation from the Football League. SkyBet rate them at 11/4 underdogs for a win- something they have only done twice in their last ten matches.
A draw would see Torquay go within six points of safety, providing results go their way, and if Rochdale and Chesterfield lose and the Iron draw, the Claret and Blue will be just one point from Keith Hill’s Rochdale, currently at the league’s summit.
