Tranmere to Win
With five wins and one draw in the last six games, Tranmere has been in fantastic form recently and they are currently sitting in the second place in the standings. Rochdale, however, is hovering around the middle of the table.
This is the main reason why we are going with Tranmere in this game, despite the fact that Rochdale beat them in their last three head-to-head duels.
Under 2.5 Total Goals
While Rochdale is averaging 2.73 goals per game this season in League Two, Tranmere is the last in this category with an average of just 1.67 goals per game.
And while two of the three most recent duels between these teams have gone over 2.5 total goals, we expect this one to go under since we expect Tranmere to impose their style of play.
Both Teams to Score – No
Both teams have scored in two of the last three h2h meetings between Tranmere and Rochdale, but we don't expect that to happen in their upcoming duel on Saturday.
After all, both teams have scored in just 21% of all Tranmere matches in the league this season and the team did not concede a goal in five of their last six games.
Tranmere vs Rochdale preview: Can Tranmere keep the run going?
Tranmere
It's been a very good season so far for Tranmere since the team is currently second in League Two and they are on a good path to earning a direct promotion to League One. In the last six games, Tranmere has five wins and one draw, so the team is in great form at the moment and if they can keep the run going for a while they might just create a considerable gap from teams below them.
Rochdale
With just one win in the last six games in the league, along with three draws and two losses, Rochdale is obviously far from their best form. Overall, the team is sitting in the seventeenth place in the standings, currently safe from any relegation worries and far from a spot in the playoffs. So, it's safe to assume that the team is heading for a mid-table finish this season.
