Bantams vs Southern Soccer Academy tips and predictions

Bantams can dominate Southern Soccer Academy but no great value in odds

On 17 USL League Two points, first placed Bantams host ninth placed Southern Soccer Academy. With 3 points the visitors are someway behind their rivals.

Another exhibition of the home side's crowd-pleasing football should make the difference between the sides throughout this game. When these sides lock horns it's almost certain to deliver some goals so it should make for an entertaining affair.

It's hard to see anything but a home win but their short price is not one to get stuck into. It's just that Southern Soccer Academy don't measure up favourably against this side.

A look at the respective results for each side; the hosts have been running rings around recent opponents - winning all of their last 4 games. It could also be significant that the visitors have been bereft of form while losing their last 5 matches home and away. The stars are aligned for one more defeat here.

When they've played at home Bantams look good. Their recent 3 home matches have them hitting the net an average of 3.0 times per game while combining those displays with decent defensive stats. They have only conceded an average of 0.6 goals across their last 5 games. They'll likely see this as an opportunity to keep a clean sheet.

The visitors have been below their normal standard in recent engagements. They've been goalless in 4 of their last 5 matches. This might be irrelevant in retrospect if their forwards improve their decision-making in the final third. Don't bank on it though.

Bantams are decent favourites and it's possible they just don't give up any ground to Southern Soccer Academy. The No BTTS bet seems fair enough.
