Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We think it's fairly unlikely that this fixture will deliver 4 goals or more, and the odds and statistics align with our predictive algorithm on this one. Shrewsbury and Wrexham haven't typically served up goal-fests of late, whether that be in League One individually or in head-to-head clashes. So, in the absence of a strong favourite draw or double chance market, we're going for under 3.5 goals. The UK's top bookies have that available at a best price of 1.25.
