Northampton vs Tranmere Preview
Northampton Town will aiming to build on their morale-boosting 2-0 victory over Grimsby, which ended a four-game winless run across all competitions. The Cobblers have struggled to make home advantage count this season, averaging just 0.50 goals per home game, so they will need to show greater cutting edge. Liam Shaw remains sidelined, but there are no fresh injury concerns for the hosts.
Tranmere Rovers, meanwhile, are in worrying form after extending their winless streak to six matches with a 2-1 defeat to Barnet. The visitors have been particularly vulnerable away from home, conceding an average of 2.00 goals per game on their travels. Defender Joel Senior is suspended, adding another concern for a side desperate to turn its fortunes around.
Northampton have dominated this fixture in recent meetings, winning four of the last six encounters, while Tranmere’s away struggles make the hosts an appealing choice. However, Northampton’s lack of goals at home suggests a low-scoring affair, making Northampton to Win and Under 3.5 goals our preferred betting picks.
