Exeter City vs Accrington Stanley is a League Two clash at St James Park on Saturday at 3pm, with the hosts fancied to claim a first win of the campaign.

Premium Tips
Andy favours Exeter, whose home advantage should prove decisive against a mid-table Accrington side.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Exeter City to win and under 2.5 goals | 7/2 | Exeter wouldn’t have been wanting to play League Two football this season but relegation from League One has left them in the league’s bottom tier. They got off to a losing start, being defeated 1-0 by Grimsby last weekend. We’re backing them to bounce back in their first home game of the season, though, as they take on an Accrington side that will be battling relegation according to most. It could be a tight game, with neither side looking full on confidence but we’re predicting Exeter to come out on top in a tight game. |
| Jayden Wareham to score anytime and Charlie Caton over 0.5 shots on target | 3/1 | One of the true bright sparks for the Grecians is Jayden Wareham, who looks increasingly likely to stay at the club after being linked with a move away this summer. He scored 19 goals in League One last season and we think he’ll open his League Two account this weekend. Charlie Caton found himself on the scoresheet twice last weekend, as Accrington drew 2-2 with Colchester. He might find things a little harder in the South West this weekend but backing him to have 1+ shot on target in this contest provides a nice odds bump to this bet. |

How Exeter City go into the game
Exeter began with a narrow 1-0 defeat at Grimsby, undone in a tight contest. St James Park has long been a happy hunting ground and the Grecians will expect to bounce back.
A well-coached, energetic side, Exeter will back themselves at home. Turning promising performances into points is the immediate priority after an unlucky opener.
How Accrington Stanley go into the game
Accrington opened with a 2-2 home draw against Colchester, a decent point in an entertaining game. They travel to Devon knowing away days will define their season.
Accrington can be lively going forward but face a long trip to a strong home side. Keeping it tight and nicking something would be a fine afternoon’s work.
