Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We think it's unlikely that this fixture will have more than 3 goals at most, and the odds and statistics point in the same direction as KickOff's predictive algorithm on this one. Port Vale and Gillingham haven't typically been involved in goal-fests of late, whether that be in League Two individually or in their head-to-head duals. So, without a compelling favourite win or double chance market, we're suggesting under 3.5 goals. You can go for that at a best price of 1.30.

If you’re looking for a winner in this match, we think Port Vale are the most likely. Our predictive algorithm gives them a 59% chance of victory, and the bookies have them at a best price of 1.65.
