York CityNo absentees
Northampton TownNo absentees
York City host Northampton Town at the LNER Community Stadium on Saturday afternoon, kick-off 3pm, with the free-scoring hosts heavily favoured against the division’s lowest scorers.
Our York vs Northampton predictions and betting tips are below, with Anthony Eadson’s best bets and score prediction.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson backs a comfortable home win.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Alex Newby to score anytime | 2/1 (Ladbrokes) | Alex Newby has been in sparkling form, leading the York scoring charts with six goals in eight games as the Minstermen have made a strong start. Home form is the cornerstone, four wins from four at the LNER Community Stadium with 12 goals scored and only three conceded. Northampton arrive 22nd having managed just three goals all season and a single away goal, so York should dominate. With Newby in this kind of touch, the anytime market at 2/1 looks the standout way into the game. |
| York City 2-0 Northampton Town | 7/1 (bet365) | York have been imperious at home, winning all four at the LNER Community Stadium and keeping their back line largely intact with only three conceded there. Northampton, by contrast, have scored just once on their travels and have failed to find the net in four of seven games. Against the division’s bluntest attack, a comfortable home win is firmly on the cards, and a two-goal margin looks well within York’s range. The 2-0 scoreline, at a generous 7/1, is well worth a look given the gulf between the sides. |
