What to expect
We expect about 1.0 goals from Tranmere and 1.6 from Oldham, so Oldham come out ahead by a nose. Put together, that is around 2.6 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.
Tranmere come into this on two straight draws. Recent results are only ever part of the story, but they are worth knowing before kick-off.
Our pick: Both teams to score. Both of these carry enough of a threat to find the net (xG 1.0-1.6), and we make both teams to score about 52%. Expect goals at either end rather than a one-sided shut-out.
We put the chance of that landing at about 52 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.76, which works out at about 57 out of 100. The price is shorter than our own read, so there is less in this than it might look.
One thing to watch
One well-drilled defence, or a game that turns one-sided, and this is gone. The price is shorter than our own read of about 52%, so there's less value here than the number suggests.
