Truro City FC (Home)
- National League relegation battlers Truro City FC welcome Sutton United on Saturday in a matchup that could go either way and invites plenty of interest from those looking for Truro City FC vs Sutton United FC betting tips.
- Truro are propping up the National League with just 12 points from 19 matches and a run of one win, one draw and three defeats in their last five games that includes a current three-match losing streak.
- Jovial John Askey likes to play his teams on the front foot, pressing high up the field and transitioning quickly from defense to attack.
- It’s an exciting brand of soccer, but it seems to have stalled recently, with the White Tigers losing 4-0 to Solihull Moors, 0-1 to Altrincham and 2-0 to Braintree Town in their previous three games.
Sutton United (Away)
- Sutton United have an air of familiarity about them right now as they attempt to establish a tactical identity under new boss Jon Meeney.
- Both Meeney and recent predecessors have set up their sides in a compact and pragmatic manner, with a focus on defensive structure and a counter-attacking style.
- That should make for an interesting battle in midfield on Saturday, with Askey looking to push the pace and Meeney most likely to sit back and try to frustrate his hosts, making this Truro City FC vs Sutton United FC betting tips all the more intriguing.
- Sutton are the slight favourites at 2.91, compared to Truro’s 2.23, and they deserve that status on form alone after winning two, drawing two and losing just one of their last five.
Key Players
- Lewis Simper is Sutton’s main man in attack with seven National League goals, four of which have come in the last ten matches, a resurgence that has coincided with a slight uptick in the quality of their chances.
- Those results don’t show many signs of life up front for the hosts, whose most prolific National League striker, Luke Jephcott, has just three goals in 17 appearances.
Betting Insights
- The 1.84 on ‘Over 2.5 goals’ looks a decent price, too, with both teams vulnerable to conceding and the visitors having scored multiple goals in each of their last three matches.
- Sutton are priced 2.91 to win while Truro sit at 2.23, reflecting Sutton’s slightly better recent form.
Prediction
- However, they are still seeking their first away victory of the season, with one draw and one defeat in their last two, which is a key consideration for our Truro City FC vs Sutton United FC prediction.
- A draw is the pick in the result market, however, with Truro averaging 1.33 goals per home game and conceding 1.11.
- Sutton have managed eight on the road in nine games.
