Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

It's our view that there's not a clear favourite to claim victory here, but does appear clear is that the odds suggest it'll have a maximum of 3 goals. Our statistical analysis draws the same conclusion. Salford and Cambridge have taken part in plenty of under 3.5 goal games lately, and key performance statistics point towards more of the same. We feel confident predicting under 3.5 goals on Saturday afternoon, and the bookies have it priced at 1.29.
