Tranmere vs Salford City Betting Tips - BTTS
Tranmere Rovers and Salford City meet at Prenton Park, with both sides aiming to find consistency after up-and-down starts to their League Two campaigns.
Salford City make the trip to Merseyside having suffered a 2-0 defeat at home to Walsall in their last League Two outing, a result that leaves them 15th in the division with eight points collected from six games played.
On the road, Karl Robinson′s side can often be relied on for goals. Eight of their last 11 League Two away fixtures saw BTTS while they only failed to net in three of their last away contests.
Tranmere have made a near-identical start with only eight points picked up from their first six league fixtures of the new campaign. Nigel Adkin′s men now return to Prenton Park after a disappointing pair of 3:0 defeats in their last two league games at Gillingham and Colchester.
While stronger in home fixtures, the Superwhites have won five and lost just two of their last nine games at Prenton Park since the end of last season. Five of their seven most recent home games also saw BTTS.
When these two teams last met in League Two, Tranmere delivered a dominant 5-1 victory at The Peninsula Stadium. However, Salford did claim a 4:3 win on their last visit to this venue in August last year.
A tricky match to call, Tranmere are narrow favourites, but BTTS should prove a safer play considering the high-scoring nature of last season's meetings between these evenly matched sides.
