Cheltenham vs Salford: the head-to-head
Cheltenham’s dominance in this brief rivalry is unmistakable, having won every home fixture in the seven encounters that began in 2020. Across those matches, Cheltenham has edged Salford 3-2 in victories, with two draws, while Salford has claimed two wins. The aggregate tally of 17 goals gives an average of 2.43 per game, and the high 86 per cent of meetings featuring at least two goals reflects a consistently open contest. Over 43 per cent of the games have produced three or more goals, and 57 per cent saw both sides find the net. Cheltenham’s nine goals to Salford’s eight show a slight edge in scoring. At home Cheltenham has been invincible, winning all three of its matches, whereas away they have failed to secure a win, drawing twice and losing twice. The most recent clash, a 3-2 League Two win for Cheltenham on 21 February 2026, was followed by a forthcoming meeting on 10 October 2026.
