Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We think it's fairly unlikely that this fixture will deliver 4 goals or more, and the odds and statistics are in line with KO's predictive algorithm on this one. Oldham and Salford haven't typically treated their fans to thrillers of late, whether that be in League Two individually or when going head-to-head. So, in the absence of a strong favourite WDW or double chance market, we're going for under 3.5 goals. You can go for that at a best price of 1.29.

If you’re looking for a winner in this match, we think Oldham are the most likely. Our predictive algorithm gives them a 43% chance of victory, and the bookies have them at a best price of 2.50.
