Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

It would probably be a little strong to say that we expect Micky Mellon and Neil Harris to park the bus here, but we do not expect a glut of goals as Oldham and Cambridge go head-to-head. The statistics 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 no obvious match winner in sight, that's the bet we'd advise you go for.
