Premium Tips
Andy narrowly favours Exeter, with goals also on the agenda.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Exeter or draw (Double Chance) and both teams to score | 13/10 | This fixture has a real habit of finishing tight, with four of the last six meetings between the sides ending level, so the double chance covering an Exeter win or draw makes a sensible base at St James Park. Both teams to score adds appeal: Exeter have found the net in three of their four League Two games, while Walsall arrive unbeaten and scoring freely, racking up eight goals in four including a 3-2 win over Accrington and a 2-2 at Crewe. With Exeter dangerous on home turf and Walsall netting regularly on the road, an Exeter-or-draw result with goals at both ends is a tempting combination. |
| Reece Cole and Sonny Cox over 0.5 shots on target | 2/1 | Reece Cole has been Exeter’s creative spark, an ever-present starter who has already scored and piled up five shots on target across four League Two games, so over 0.5 shots on target for him looks a strong, low-risk pick. Sonny Cox provides the second leg from the same forward line, an attacking option who adds to Exeter’s threat in front of a home crowd that has watched them create plenty of chances. With Exeter getting bodies and efforts into the box and Walsall’s defence set to be tested at St James Park, backing both to log a shot on target carries genuine appeal. |
