Notts County vs Crewe Alexandra Prediction

Notts County versus Crewe Alexandra will be a closely-fought battle in League Two as just four points separates each side in the standings, with the Magpies sitting in fifth-place on 61 points from 37 games, while Alexandra are eighth.

Despite being in a high league position, Notts County have actually struggled at Meadow Lane, as they have the 10th-best home record in the division, winning nine, drawing four and losing five of their 18 games, while Crewe have the sixth-best away record.

On top of this, Crewe’s head-to-head record against Notts County is a good one, as they have won all of the last four head-to-head clashes between the two sides, scoring at least two in three of these victories.

Prediction: Notts County 1-2 Crewe Alexandra

Notts County vs Crewe Alexandra Prediction & Preview

Saturday’s early League Two action sees fifth-place Notts County host eighth-place Crewe Alexandra at Meadow Lane in what should be an entertaining contest.

Date: 22/03/2025

Location: Meadow Lane

Time: 12:30

The last meeting between these two sides was back in mid-November, with Crewe Alexandra emerging as 2-0 victors at Gresty Road thanks to goals from Shilow Tracey and Ryan Cooney while Chris Long received a 84th-minute red card.

Notts County are having a solid campaign, as they sit just two points behind third-place AFC Wimbledon, who occupy the final automatic promotion place. Stuart Maynard’s men have won 17, drawn ten and lost ten of their 37 league matches, while scoring 56 goals and conceding 39 times.

As far as cup competitions go, Notts County were very unlucky to be eliminated from the EFL Trophy, as they exited the competition with six points from three Group Stage matches having beaten Burton Albion (2-1) and Leicester City’s Under 21s ((1-0).

The Magpies were eliminated in the FA Cup by Peterborough United via a 4-3 scoreline in the Second Round after thrashing Alfreton Town (5-1) in the First Round, while their League Cup campaign was also short, as they were beaten by Shrewsbury Town on penalties after 3-3 draw in the First Round.

On the other hand, Crewe are just one points behind seventh-place Colchester and six points adrift of Wimbledon, as they have accumulated 57 points from 37 matches, winning 14, drawing 15 and losing eight times while scoring 45 goals and conceding 38.

Alexandra actually managed to reach the Round of 32 stage in the EFL Trophy, however, they were beaten 1-0 away at Wrexham after advancing through a Group Stage featuring the likes of Blackpool, Liverpool’s Under 21s and Harrogate Town.

In the two major domestic cups, Crewe suffered two disappointing First Round defeats, as they were beaten by Rotherham United (2-1) in the EFL Cup, while suffering an embarrassing 1-0 loss at the hands of Dagenham & Redbridge in the FA Cup.
