Market: Both teams to score
Odds: 19/20 @ 888sport
In a matchup that could see chances at both ends of the pitch in midweek, Exeter will host Bristol City on Wednesday night when the two sides turn their attention to EFL Trophy duties.
Starting with the hosts, managing to salvage a late equalizer over the weekend as they earned an FA Cup replay, Exeter have continued on what has been a largely impressive run of form. In their first 15 League Two matchups since opening the 2021/22 campaign, they have recorded six wins, eight draws and just a single defeat, scoring 25 and conceding 15 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 26, the Whites find themselves sat fourth in the table and once again leading the chase to clinch a play-off spot. As for their recent run of results, last seen playing out a 1-1 draw against Bradford City on FA Cup duties, Exeter are unbeaten in each of their last 13 matchups across all formats. Likewise, it should also be noted, Wednesday’s hosts have remarkably seen all nine of their last contests across formats finish with both teams finding the net.
As for the visitors, also having to settle for their own FA Cup stalemate over the weekend, Bristol Rovers have gained a reputation for their inconsistencies. In their opening 15 League Two matchups so far this season, they have recorded five wins, six draws and four defeats, scoring 21 and conceding 18 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 21, they currently find themselves sat 12th in the table and just two points adrift of finding a route into the play-off spots. As for their recent run of results, last seen playing out a 2-2 draw against Oxford United on the road, Wednesday’s guests have won just one of their last six matchups across all formats. Likewise, it should be noted, with Bristol Rovers seeing five of their last six fixtures finish with both teams finding the net, we’re backing a similar outcome here.
