League Two Best Bets

If you follow us regularly, you’ll know about the over indexing of away wins in League Two. It’s a long term trend, and one which we hope will continue when Yeovil visit Stevenage on Saturday. The travelling side have only won twice on the road all season, which for the purposes of transparency we are duty bound to mention, but recent form has to give them half a chance in this one, as they look a side intent of motoring away from the drop zone.

Just one point splits the side in League Two now, with Yeovil on a run which has seen them win six of their last ten, and draw a further two. Of the two which went against them, Man United account for one of the results, so it’s fair to say they are in decent nick right now.

Stevenage by contrast have won 2, drawn 4 and lost 4 in the same spell, with the low point coming with a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Forest Green last week. The Glovers are available at 13/5 with a couple of bookmakers in this one, a price that is long enough to hook us in.

1pt Yeovil to beat Stevenage at 13/5

Our second match is Cheltenham v Wycombe, where we’ll follow on from the midweek goals success with another go. As highlighted ahead of Wycombe’s match with Swindon (which ended 3-2), both sides have scored in 26 of their 39 matches this season (66%), 26 have seen “Over 2.5 Goals” land, and a further 20 have gone “Over 3.5 Goals”. Add in that their last seven matches have produced 34 goals (4.86 per match) and you get the feeling they are enjoying a certain brand of football at the moment.

This week they take on Cheltenham, who have also played 39 this season. Their corresponding numbers have seen both sides score in 24/39, Over 2.5 Goals in 21/39 and Over 3.5 Goals in 13/39.
