Best Tip: Both teams to score

We have a pair of effective, attacking sides going head-to-head and, as such, we are predicting both of them to score at least 1 goal during the 90 mins. Can respective bosses David Moyes or Xabi Alonso find a tactical plan to top their opponent? Recent form statistics and historical head-to-heads, as well as the latest odds from the bookmakers, suggest that's unlikely.
