      Port Vale vs Yeovil Town Predictions

      The struggling Port Vale managed to clinch a potentially crucial victory at the weekend as they beat Mansfield Town 2-1 at Vale Park, boosting them up to 21st in the table and putting them seven points clear of the relegation zone.

      With 10 games left to play in the League 2 season, they are far from safe just yet. Prior to that important win they had picked up just two points from a possible 21 in their last seven matches, both coming from goalless draws away from home.

      It’s this lack of goalscoring prowess that is the real worry for The Valiants. They have netted just 30 goals in their 36 matches so far, giving them the worst attacking record in the entire division. They have failed to score in six of their last eight games as well, although they are facing a very poor Yeovil Town side on Tuesday.

      The visitors were the team shunted down to 22nd after Port Vale’s win on Saturday. They lost 1-0 away to League 2 leaders Lincoln City to keep them six points above the drop zone, and they have now lost seven of their last nine league outings.

      Port Vale’s attacking record may be the worst in the league, but Yeovil’s play going forward isn’t proving much more fruitful. They’ve scored just 36 goals this term, and away from home they’ve found the net once in their last five outings.

      Both of these sides have a surprisingly good defensive record when compared to their fellow relegation candidates though, so combined with their meagre attacking threat we could be in for an exceptionally dull game with regards to goals.

      Port Vale have seen five of their last 11 home games in League 2 end with just one goal being scored, and they’re facing a Yeovil side who have seen fewer than two goals in seven of their last 10 away matches. We’re backing Under 1.5 Goals on Tuesday, alongside a 1-0 win for the hosts.
