Here are our best bets for League 2 this weekend.
Walsall v Port Vale
The first thing we would like to do is apologise to Walsall fans as it appears that every single League 2 preview of late we have opposed their team, and for this weekend, we are doing exactly the same again.
Sorry.
The Walsall wobble is well known and well documented. 9 consecutive wins earlier this season, 12 points clear at the top, since then, 2 wins in 15 but somehow, remarkably, still top of the table by 2 points.
And even though Walsall are currently 21st in the current form guide over the last 6 games, bookies still have them favourites to win and that is why we oppose them.
They host Port Vale on Saturday, a Vale side who could go top if they win. A Vale side who have won 4 games in 5.
Yet, Vale are priced at 11/4 to win at Paddy Power. The draw is an obvious play, Walsall have drawn their last 4 league games, but if there is a winner we're backing the away side. Port Vale Draw No Bet is 8/5 at betfair and that is our tip.
Bromley v Accrington Stanley
You're now at the stage of the season where you can correctly declare that the season is over for a few teams. They are not going up, and they are not going down. Bromley are definitely one of this sides.
Bromley are comfortably mid-table and are looking forward to League 2 football again next season. Accrington are flirting with the bottom 2 teams. They are 6 points above 2nd bottom Morecambe which will be a bit too close for comfort.
Accrington do not travel well, have lost 3 in 5 away games and have only scored 2 goals in those 5. Bromley at home are inconsistent but they do score goals. They have won, drawn and lost in their last 3 games at home but have scored 5 in those 3 games. And that is why we are tipping Bromley to win at 6/5 at William Hill.
MK Dons v Barrow
MK Dons are at home to Barrow on Saturday and the bookies have them as favourites to win. We disagree.
Could you trust a side, 6/4 favs to win who have won 2 of their last 10 at home and have lost 6 of those 10? We certainly cannot.
And then there is Barrow, who have won at Notts County and Port Vale in the last month and drew at Wimbledon. All of these teams are in the top 6. MK Dons are 18th and below Barrow who are 16th.
Barrow are 2/1 at AK Bets to win and that is a price too big to ignore, so we are playing it.
Enjoy the football, good luck with your bets and please gamble responsibly.
