Both Teams To Score – No

Scunthorpe are the lowest-scoring team in the league with their 23 goals in 32 games. Northampton, on the other end, have the second-best defense out of the entire league and conceded only 25 goals in their 31 matches. Moreover, they conceded a goal in just 4 out of their last 10 league games and in just one of their last five. Their defense has been incredible and we think that Scunthorpe, out of all teams, will have the most problems to score here. Another option is the under 2.5 market. While Northampton are one of the best teams, they often have 0:0 draws as well as 1:0/0:1 wins. They do not score too many goals and curiously, Scunthorpe often manage to concede one or two max.

Match Result – Northampton

It is obvious that Northampton are the big favorite to win this game and we think that this is the most possible outcome. We expect a 0:1 or 0:2 win. We advise against big stakes for this game because Northampton have also had a bunch of draws on the road and there is always a small possibility for failure even against the weakest teams. Nevertheless, we think that they will take the opportunity for three easy points and win this match without serious issues.

Team Corners – Scunthorpe Under 4.5

Neither team here has taken a lot of corners this season even though they have performed in completely different ways. You can opt for an under bet here when the markets open but for now, we prefer the under 4.5 option for Scunthorpe. The team has taken an average of 4.09 corners per game, which is the second-lowest average out of the entire league.
