Brackley Town FC
- Brackley Town FC are winless in their last two home games (D1, L1).
- National League side Tamworth FC (48 points from 39 games) are 12th in the table ahead of this Saturday’s away trip to 20th-placed Brackley Town FC (37 points from 39 matches).
Tamworth FC
- Tamworth FC have failed to win on their last away trip to Brackley.
- Brackley’s defense-first setup should make this a tricky test for Andy Peaks’ front-heavy Tamworth team, who have been a whirlwind of attacking pace at times this season.
Head-to-Head
The last meeting between these two sides saw Peaks’ men claim a 1-1 draw in Tamworth, while the last three head-to-head meetings have seen one win apiece and a draw ( W1, D1, L1 ).
Key Players
- Shane Byrne (6 goals in 31 NL appearances) is Brackley’s main threat from midfield.
- The hosts have struggled to score at home this season, averaging just 0.79 goals per game, whilst conceding an average of 1.32 goals per game.
- Tamworth’s attack comes from the wings and with them looking more likely to play on the break, quick, accurate service into the box from wide areas will be key to creating chances.
- Oliver Lynch has been the main beneficiary of this style of play this term, scoring 9 times in 36 NL games; 5 of Tamworth’s last 10 goals have been scored by Lynch.
Betting Insights
- Although Tamworth are in poor form (W1, L4), they face a similarly out-of-form Brackley Town side this Saturday (D1, L4).
- Tamworth’s firepower on paper should be enough to beat a team averaging just 0.79 goals per home game in the league, however, Brackley should cause their visitors enough problems to get on the scoresheet.
Prediction
- With Tamworth having a go and Brackley sitting deep, we’re expecting this to be an end-to-end game that should hit over 2.5 goals.
- A BTTS selection at these odds looks to offer excellent value.
