Northampton Town v Oldham Athletic tips
Northampton TownLLLWD
Oldham AthleticWLLLLBoth teams are struggling badly for wins right now which makes this game hard to call. Under 2.5 goals looks safer at 1.71 because neither side shows any reliable scoring touch in their recent results.
- Northampton Town come into this fixture on a terrible run that features three straight defeats and only one draw in their last four matches.
- Oldham Athletic have lost four of their last five matches and managed just a single victory while failing to find any consistent attacking threat.
- The bookmakers offer 1.71 for under 2.5 total goals which gives us a solid price on a low scoring battle between two out of form sides.
- Northampton Town are priced at 2.70 to win at home which tempts backers who think Oldham Athletic look even worse on current form.
- Oldham Athletic are available at 2.60 to take the points away from home despite losing four of their last five league outings.
Both teams struggle so much in attack that a clean sheet either way is quite possible.
