Oldham to Win

Reason for tip

Oldham finished last season strongly and can carry that momentum into their League Two opener against relegated Port Vale. The hosts won three of their final four matches, scoring at least twice in each victory, and have found the net in 16 of their last 18 league games. Port Vale arrive after relegation from League One and ended last season with four consecutive matches without a clean sheet, giving Oldham a good opportunity to start with three points.

Oldham 1-0

Reason for tip

A narrow home win appeals given Oldham’s recent record in opening fixtures. Each of their last four League Two season openers has finished with under 2.5 goals, suggesting another cagey start could be on the cards. Port Vale ended last season with a 1-0 defeat to Gillingham and were struggling defensively during the run-in. Oldham’s stronger finish to the campaign gives them the edge, but this may be settled by a single goal.

Oldham can make a winning start

Oldham are the bet to get a home win over Port Vale in League Two on Saturday.

Oldham finished tenth in League Two last season with 68 points, winning 18 games, drawing 14 and losing 14 times. Port Vale were relegated from League One.

The hosts should have no trouble finding the net. Oldham have scored in 16 of their last 18 league games and ended last season with three wins out of four, scoring at least twice in each of those games.

Port Vale’s defence was far from solid at the end of last season, with the visitors failing to keep a clean sheet in their final four League One games.

A 1-0 win for Oldham looks the best correct-score bet. The hosts’ last four League Two openers have gone under 2.5 goals and Port Vale lost 1-0 to Gillingham in their last league game.
