Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We think there's minimal chance that this match will deliver more than 3 goals at most, and the odds and stats are in line with our predictive algorithm on this one. Blackpool and Northampton haven't typically treated their fans to goal-fests of late, whether that be in League One individually or in their head-to-head duals. So, without a convincing favourite draw or double chance market, we're suggesting under 3.5 goals. That's available at a best price of 1.25.
