Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

Maybe it'd be too strong to say that we expect Omar Lepri and Nigel Clough to got all-out defensive here, but we're certainly not expecting a flood of goals as Northampton and Mansfield go head-to-head. The stats belowimply under 2.5 goals (i.e. 2 goals of fewer in total), and we're saying it's likely to go that way too. With best odds of 1.57 available on under 2.5 goals and neither side looking like strong favourites to win, that's the bet we're recommending.
