Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The statistics suggest there's no obvious winner in this fixture, but good reason to think Swindon and Walsall will score at least a couple of goals between them. That has been the case when they've gone head-to-head in years gone by, and neither Ian Holloway or Grant Lee has served up too many 0-0s of late either. The bookmakers are predicting over 1.5 goals too, with top odds of 1.25 equating to approximately a 74% probability.
