Oldham vs AFC Wimbledon Predictions & Betting Tips, Match Previews

Oldham v AFC Wimbledon – not the most inspiring fixtures from the punters point of view that’s for sure. The hosts have been a hard side to beat this season, but have failed to score many goals. On the other hand, Wimbledon have done reasonably well, but have stumbled a bit of late.

The best bet ahead of this one, although both obvious and somewhat boring, is ‘Under 2.5 Goals’. Thanks to both good defending and poor attacking, Oldham haven’t found themselves in too many high-scoring matches this season, especially at home, and this trend is fancied to continue on Saturday.

Keeping it tight at the back has been the Oldham way this season and this would have served them well if they’d been able to score with any sort of regularity themselves. At home, they’ve scored just four goals and have conceded nine. Additionally, just one of Oldham’s eight home matches saw more than three match goals go in.

AFC Wimbledon can’t exactly match Oldham for low-scoring games, 62% of their away matches saw more than two goals hit the net, but they haven’t played Oldham yet. The hosts are likely to get men behind the ball and frustrate against this attacking Wimbledon side and so the visitors could find themselves somewhat frustrated.

On the face of it, Wimbledon are probably the more likely victor in this match, although even if they do come out on top it’s unlikely to be in high-scoring fashion.
