Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The statistics suggest there's no obvious winner for this clash, but there's plenty of reasons to believe that Mansfield and Exeter will score at least a couple of goals between them. Goals have flowed freely when they've gone head-to-head in years gone by, and neither Nigel Clough or Gary Caldwell has suffered the frustration of many 0-0s of late either. The bookmakers are predicting over 1.5 goals too, with odds of 1.22 equating to approximately a 75% probability.
