Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

Maybe it'd be too strong to say that we expect Shaun Maloney and Jon Brady to park the bus here, but we do not expect a glut of goals as Wigan and Northampton go head-to-head. The statistics belowpoint towards there being under 2.5 goals (i.e. 2 goals of fewer in total), and we reckon it's likely to go that way too. With best odds of 1.73 available on under 2.5 goals and neither side looking like strong favourites to win, that's the bet we're recommending.
