Salford head into this clash on decent form, winning three of their last five matches and given Harrogate's difficulties on the road, our prediction firmly points toward a 3-1 home win. The Lions are a real force to be reckoned with at home, averaging 5.5 goals per game in recent fixtures, with 2.5 goals conceded, highlighting an open, attacking style. Defender Haji Mnoga is on international duty, but Salford have sufficient cover to maintain defensive stability. Their expected goals of 2.05 at home suggests they create plenty of quality chances.
The Sulphurites, meanwhile, are struggling, averaging just 0.90 points per game overall. Their away form is poor, scoring 1.25 goals per game but conceding 1.5, and they have multiple injuries: Cass, Duke-McKenna, Gibson, and Hill are all sidelined. This lack of depth will likely impact their competitiveness, especially against a strong home side.
Considering Salford's fine home form and Harrogate’s depleted squad, Home Win should be considered, with additional value on Over 1.5 (75% H2H) and Over 2.5 goals.
This League 2 match will be played on Friday 26 December 2025 at 15:00.
