Both teams to score at Exeter vs Forest Green 10/11 for Tuesday’s EFL Trophy tie

Competition: EFL Trophy

Market: Both teams to score

Odds: 10/11 @ 888sport

In a matchup that should see chances at both ends of the pitch, Exeter and Forest Green will face off from behind closed doors on EFL Cup duties on Tuesday evening.

Starting with the hosts, blown away in the League Two play-off final back in June, Exeter have continued on what has been a rollercoaster run of form as they build-up to their fourth-tier return. Crashing out of the League Cup away at Championship outfit Bristol City last time out, they have managed to win just a pair of their seven matchups across all formats this summer within 90 minutes and have continued on from their worrying end to the 2019/2020 campaign. Despite eventually managing to land a sixth-place finish last season, they failed to win any of their final four contests and failed to record a single clean sheet in any of their final nine League Two contests. It should also be noted that each of their last four competitive matchups on home soil have finished with both teams finding the net.

As for the visitors, continuing on from the struggles that they showed before the 2019/2020 League Two campaign was brought to an early halt, Forest Green have had some real problems during pre-season. Including crashing out of the League Cup thanks to a 2-1 defeat against fellow fourth-tier outfit Leyton Orient last time out, they have now lost each of their last four contests on the bounce. More worrying, the guests managed to land just a single victory in any of their last 10 matchups last season, losing seven of those contests. Eventually finishing the year nine points adrift of clinching a play-off spot, it should also be noted that Forest Green managed to win just a pair of their last 10 competitive matchups on the road. With each of their last four defeats seeing both teams find the net, we’re backing a similar outcome on Tuesday.
