Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

There is 80% chance of Northampton and Shrewsbury no more than 3 goals combined during this League One game according to our predictive algorithm and, without a strong favourite in the win draw win market, we think that's where the smart money should go. Our calculations are made based on 20-game form, historical head-to-head (H2H) statistics and the view of the betting market, and you can back it at 1.25.
