Salford City's fans will be hoping for goals on Sunday afternoon, not least because Morecambe have conceded in each of their last 10 League Two games. A PG of 1.5 for Karl Robinson's side suggests that run should continue.

Salford City's defensive record is to be admired, Karl Robinson's men having conceded 1 or less in 6 consecutive League Two matches. An average PG rating of 1.0 for Morecambe makes sense in this context.
