With the rate of decline of both teams, we can’t place huge expectations on either side. But their head to head shows either side or both sides being on the scoresheet in their last 3 meetings. Within that time, they played out less than 3.5 goals in each of those meetings. I think the under goal market is worth staking on considering the poor form that both sides have been in this season
