Data provided by

Oldham Athletic host Cheltenham Town at Boundary Park at 3pm on Saturday, with two sides who have struggled to keep the ball out of their net coming together in Greater Manchester.

Our Oldham Athletic vs Cheltenham Town predictions and betting tips assess a League Two meeting between a struggling home side and a Cheltenham team that cannot stop conceding. With neither defence reliable, the goals markets stand out, even if recent head-to-heads have gone Oldham’s way.

Premium Tips

Anthony Eadson expects an open affair between two sides who leak goals as readily as they score them.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Second half to be the highest-scoring half23/20 (Ladbrokes)Cheltenham’s games have come alive after the break this season, with the second half the higher-scoring half in seven of their ten League Two matches. Oldham have followed suit in four of nine, and 11 of the 19 combined matches have fitted the pattern. Oldham are winless in four and Cheltenham have lost their last two, so both sides may start cautiously before the game opens up. Ladbrokes offer 23/20 on the second half being the highest-scoring half.
Draw and both teams to score4/1 (bet365)For all Cheltenham’s superior league position, this has the look of a high-scoring, even contest. Oldham have actually won the last two meetings between the pair, including a 3-0 at Cheltenham, so the visitors cannot bank on their table standing counting for much here. Both sides concede too freely for a clean-sheet outcome, and with Oldham dangerous enough at home to trouble a Cheltenham side that never keeps one out, a score draw is well worth chancing. At 4/1 it offers real value in a fixture that should produce goals at both ends.

How Oldham Athletic go into the game

Oldham sit 21st on eight points and are badly out of sorts, winless in their last four, most recently held to a 0-0 at home by Accrington. Five defeats from nine tell of a tough opening.

Home form has been mixed, with two wins and two defeats from five at Boundary Park and six goals conceded there, so there have been goals around whenever Oldham have played in front of their own fans.

How Cheltenham Town go into the game

Cheltenham arrive eighth on 15 points but go into the weekend having lost their last two, most recently a 2-0 home defeat to Salford. For all their mid-table standing, they have yet to keep a clean sheet all season.

The Robins have been even on the road with one win, two draws and two defeats from five, and with 16 scored and 16 conceded overall, their games rarely lack goals.
