Best Tip: Both teams to score

Here is a pair of effective, attacking groups going head-to-head and, as such, we're predicting both of them to score at least 1 goal during the 90 mins. Can respective managers Nicky Hayen or Kim Hellberg mastermind a defensive masterclass to scupper our tip? Latest form stats and historical head-to-heads, as well as the latest odds from the bookmakers, suggest that's unlikely.
