Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We're suggesting it's fairly unlikely that this match will deliver 4+ goals, and the odds and stats point in the same direction as KickOff's predictive algorithm on this one. Walsall and Accrington have seldom served up thrillers of late, whether that be in League Two individually or in head-to-head clashes. So, without a convincing favourite win or double chance market, we're suggesting under 3.5 goals. That's available at a best price of 1.20.
