Our top Exeter vs Scunthorpe predictions and picks
If you are not sure what is the right bet for Exeter vs Scunthorpe, we can help you out with our favourite betting tips for this game:
Exeter to Win
While Exeter is one point away from a spot in the playoffs, Scunthorpe is sitting in the relegation zone at the moment. That being said, Exeter is without a win in the last six matches in the league, but they are still the favourite in this game.
In addition to this, Exeter beat Scunthorpe in three of their last four head-to-head duels, so we expect the same to happen on Sunday and Exeter to break their poor run.
Exeter to Win with Handicap (-1)
If you want to take a punt at higher odds and you believe, as we do, that Exeter would win this game, you may want to try betting on Exeter to win by two or more goals.
After all, the last three wins for Exeter over Scunthorpe were all by at least two goals and with Scunthorpe in such poor position this season, we don't see why this match can't follow the same path.
Over 2.5 Total Goals
Three of the last four meetings between Exeter and Scunthorpe have gone over 2.5 total goals and we can see that happening once again in their next duel.
Furthermore, Exeter averaged 2.57 goals per game this season in the league, while Scunthorpe averaged 2.54 goals per game in League Two so far.
Exeter vs Scunthorpe preview: Can Scunthorpe surprise us all?
Exeter
The team that seemed destined for a run in the playoffs has struggled a lot lately and now they've fallen to the ninth spot in the standings. The reason lies in the fact that Exeter lost four of their last six games, along with a couple of draws. So, they need to find their form again soon if they want to get back into the playoff zone and a game against the team that's fighting against relegation seems like a good starting point.
Scunthorpe
With just nineteen points from twenty four matches in League Two this season, Scunthorpe is sitting in the relegation zone and they will have to fight hard to escape it. On the bright side, the first team outside of the relegation zone is just three points ahead, so there's plenty of time for Scunthorpe to save themselves. More importantly, they are not in such a bad form right now since they have one win, three draws, and two losses in the last six games in the league.
