Competition: League One

Market: Both teams to score

Odds: 7/10 @ 888sport

Two sides who are enduring what has been a worrying run of form in England’s third-tier, Shrewsbury will host Swindon from behind closed doors on Saturday afternoon.

Starting with the hosts, enduring what has been a hugely concerning start to the 2020/2021 campaign, Shrewsbury already find themselves battling it out in the drop zone. In their 10 League One matchups so far this season, they have recorded just one win, four draws and five defeats, scoring seven and conceding 14 in return. Managing to collect a points tally of seven out of a possible 30, they open this weekend’s fixtures sat down in 22nd and two points adrift of finding a route out of the relegation zone. As for their recent run of results, while Shrewsbury might have secured back-to-back wins across all competitions, they have managed to collect just a single point over their last five League One contests. It should also be noted, three of Shrewsbury’s last four third-tier matchups have seen both teams find the net by the final whistle.

As for the visitors, while Swindon might have also managed to pick up a welcomed cup victory earlier in the week, they too are enduring a worrying start to the New Year. In their opening nine League One matchups so far this year, they have recorded three wins against six defeats, scoring 13 and conceding 18 in return. Managing to collect a points tally of nine, they open Saturday’s fixtures sat in 20th position and with just their goal difference stopping them from dropping into the relegation zone. As for their recent run of results in England’s third-flight, Swindon have lost five of their last six League One contests, shipping over 1.5 goals in all bar one of those losses. However, with each of their last three League One matchups seeing both teams find the net, we’re backing a similar outcome this weekend.
