Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

A real chess match could be in store as Cheltenham and Walsall go head-to-head, with little to choose between the players in defence, making it difficult to predict who will win. The statistics do not provide any proper confidence in that regard, but they are pointing strongly towards there being 2 goals or fewer in the match. It's a prediction which is available at best priced odds of 1.80 with the bookmakers, so we've made under 2.5 goals our tip of the day for this tie.
