Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We can expect some goalmouth action in this one, but don't count on a deluge of goals. Under 3.5 goals is our prediction, meaning no more than 3 goals will be scored in total during the standard 90 minutes. The best odds on that outcome are just below, followed by recent form stats and head-to-head (H2H) records.
