Notts County vs Hartlepool United Predictions, Betting Tips and Match Previews

It’s a clash of the two sides closest to the drop zone as relegation threatened pair Notts County and Hartlepool face off this weekend. With both sides slipping in and out of form we are going to the goals market for our tip and backing there to be either two or three goals scored at 20/21 with bet365. For our correct score tip we think that Notts County should just have enough in the locker to see off their visitors and we are backing a 2-1 home win at 15/2 with the same site.

Notts County have enjoyed a bit of a resurgence under new boss Kevin Nolan but they will be keen to bounce back from a heavy 3-0 defeat to in form Stevenage last time out. Prior to that result County had won three of their last five games and have put a small gap between themselves and the drop zone.

Life under boss Dave Jones got off to a rocky start but with two wins in a row it looks as though the penny has finally dropped for Hartlepool United. They are just one point above their hosts and they know that three points this weekend will be a major step towards survival in the Football League.

It’s a startlingly similar stat when looking at the total goals for games these teams are involved in, as both teams are involved in games with two or three goals scored about half of the time. Although this is a clash of the two worst defensive records in the division, neither side has been particularly prolific so we feel confident that there will once again be either two or three goals scored on Saturday.
