Betting Insights
Both Teams Not To Score In First Half
With odds at 98.80%, this is a highly probable outcome based on past performances and current team form. Bettors may find value in this market given the strong likelihood of a goalless first half.
Both Teams Not To Score In Second Half
Similarly, the second half also presents a strong case for no goals, with odds at 98.00%. This reflects a consistent defensive approach by both teams throughout the match.
Over 1.5 Goals
Despite the high odds against both teams scoring in either half, the market for over 1.5 goals stands at 76.90%. This indicates that while individual halves may be low scoring, the overall match could see more than one goal being scored.
Average Goals Analysis
The average total goals predicted at 3.85 suggests that while individual periods may be low scoring, there could be bursts of activity leading to a higher total scoreline by the end of the match. This aligns with the over 1.5 goals market and provides an interesting angle for bettors looking for higher stakes.
Additional Expert Predictions
Given the statistical data, it’s plausible to predict that if goals are scored, they may come in quick succession rather than spread evenly across both halves. This could lead to periods of intense play followed by more defensive tactics.
Additionally, considering the average goals conceded (3.51) versus scored (2.04), there is potential for Pontefract Collieries to capitalize on defensive lapses by Blyth Town, possibly leading to a higher goal tally for Pontefract.
