Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

We predict there's very little chance of a bore-draw or a slim 1-0 win here, and instead we're predicting over 1.5 goals. That means that Tranmere and Oldham will score a minimum of 2 between them during 90 minutes. It's a tip based on the recent form of the respective sides, as well as historical records when they go head-to-head. We give it a probability of 73%. The bookies have it priced at 1.29.
