Oldham vs AFC Fylde tips and predictions

Hosts won't have it all their way

This looks like one of those encounters where AFC Fylde do just enough to get the result and they're certain to be asked some questions by this Oldham squad.

The hosts are seeking to put some of their tepid displays out of sight. There have been a few results that suggest there are holes in Oldham's defence. They conceded two or more goals in 7 of their last 14 home matches. It remains to be seen if they can plug those gaps in time. Oldham's recent displays should be dissected. They've been goalless in 3 of their last 4 games and that doesn't feel like enough for this test.

The Coasters have won 4 of their last 7 away matches. In defence they have also posted some good numbers. They've conceded no more than once in 6 of their last 8 away matches. However you cut it, it should be a good game and if they give a hundred percent then the away win looks like a good pick. Most of their good results have been characterised by their confident finishing. They've scored two or more goals in 11 of their last 17 games. If there is any overconfidence in the hosts' ranks, the visitors will make things pretty uncomfortable here.

Aside from the match winner pick, the Both Teams To Score No is probably the optimal supporting bet although it's not a great price.
