Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals

KickOff's prediction and odds from the bookmakers suggest that this Pro League showdown will be on for the neutrals, with at least 3 goals to scored in the fixture. As neither side is a nailed-on winner given their recent form, we're going with the stats and past head-to-head (H2H) records below, both of which point firmly in the direction of over 2.5 goals being the best bet here.
