Match Preview
Salford City will host Crewe Alexandra at The Peninsula Stadium in what promises to be an intriguing League Two encounter. Both teams have shown some promising form recently, with Salford recording two wins and a draw in their last five matches, while Crewe has been slightly more consistent with three wins in the same period. Historically, this fixture has been competitive, with Salford winning five of the last ten encounters, but Crewe has also proven to be a formidable opponent, claiming three victories.
One key angle to consider is the trend of both teams scoring in their recent matchups. With nine of the last ten head-to-head meetings seeing both teams find the net, the odds of 1.8 for BTTS (Both Teams To Score) could represent good value. Additionally, with eight of those encounters exceeding 2.5 goals, the 1.9 odds for over 2.5 goals could also be worth a look. Expect an open game as both teams aim to secure crucial points early in the season.
