What to expect
We expect about 1.4 goals from Crawley Town and 1.3 from Cheltenham, which is as level as our reading of a game gets. Put together, that is around 2.7 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.
Our pick: Over 2.5 goals. This does not need a goal rush: we make it around 2.7 goals (xG 1.4-1.3), and three is enough to land it, landing about 53% of the time on these numbers.
We put the chance of that landing at about 51 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.71, which works out at about 58 out of 100. The price is shorter than our own read, so there is less in this than it might look.
What the numbers say
✓Crawley Town have won one of their last five.
✓Cheltenham have won two of their last five.
