The English league fourth tier has the worst record of the top five leagues. They don’t even Make a figure of 54% of the required results. Nevertheless it should prove worthwhile giving the stats a good looking at, as there will always be some worthwhile games to, hopefully, find their way into the “winners enclosure”.
Rochdale are leading the way with 15 BTTS results after 21 games. Bringing up the rear are Bradford and Aldershot with just 8 such results each.
Past results seem to indicate that this league is really about cut and thrust. The impression I get is that goals are not very often the result of good attacking play but come about because of defensive errors. The teams which appear to make fewest mistakes are Gillingham and Fleetwood. They are conceding on average less than a goal a game.
Only Port Vale have an outstanding scoring record. Their 44 goals are at least 5 goals better than any other team.

Two sides stand out as far as conceding goals is concerned. Wimbledon and Bristol Rovers. I’ll make them bankers
whenever they are playing away.
Teams worth keeping an eye on are, from a scoring point of view, Port Vale and Gillingham. From a conceding angle,
Wimbledon, Bristol Rovers, and Oxford. Under normal circumstances games including these five teams should be the
first for consideration.
Very often there are shock results to spoil our bets. Often because of something that happens on the field. A red card
to the favourite, especially early in the game, can throw the best laid plans into disarray. The other most likely “spanner
in the works” can often be caused by a late change of personnel. Get the up to date team sheets whenever possible. These
two things alone are very often responsible for the “good thing” being beaten.
Remember, bet responsibly. Good Luck.
