Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We don't believe there is a clear favourite to win this match, but what is clear is that the odds suggest it'll have no more than 3 goals. Our statistical analysis is inline with them too. Morecambe and Forest Green have served up a lot of under 3.5 goal games of late, and key performance statistics point towards those records being extended. We're confidently predicting under 3.5 goals on Saturday afternoon, and the bookmakers have it priced at 1.36.
