Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

Concentration will be required as Morecambe and Barrow go head-to-head, with little to choose between the sides in terms of who could claim victory. The stats don't supply any conclusive evidence in that regard, but they are pointing strongly towards there being 2 goals or fewer in the match. That's a prediction available at best priced odds of 1.57 with the bookmakers, so we're making under 2.5 goals our tip of the day on this occasion.
