Port Vale

Crewe

Both Teams To Score

Reason for tip

Port Vale and Crewe both have enough defensive concerns to make goals at both ends the standout bet. Vale have gone six straight league matches without a clean sheet, while Crewe have failed to shut out their local rivals in eight of the last nine League Two meetings. Both teams also scored in 13 of Crewe’s 23 away games last season, and another open derby looks likely at Vale Park.
