Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

It's not the news we want to be reporting, but we don't predict a thriller here. The statistics suggest Gillingham and Salford both can struggle to find the net on occasion, and the odds are leaning towards there being fewer than 2 goals in total as they go head-to-head. We think that's a great shout and, without an obvious outright winners to back, under 2.5 goals feels like the right bet on this match.
