Scunthorpe vs Northampton Prediction & Betting tips
An entertaining match on this day of Tuesday is the one played by Scunthorpe United and Northampton Town for a new round of the FA Cup.
Scunthorpe :
In my opinion, the local team starts as a favorite due to the best team they have and especially for the local factor. For this reason and knowing that his opponent is irregular in defense, we advise you to play a few euros to the bet “Scunthorpe United will win any half”. At stake is ensuring their place in the next phase of the competition after equaling without goals the first leg.
Take into account that Scunthorpe United is a team that plays in League One (third division English). These days, he has 29 points in the table, arriving toned to this duel after beating Bristol Rovers 1-0. The best of the situation is that he has won 3 matches in a row, placing himself in the play offs zone (7 of difference with Wigan, who is ascending directly).
On the other hand do not forget that the local team has added more than positive results in their stadium, after winning 4 matches, match another 3 and lose the remaining 2 that played in this condition (9 goals in favor and 6 against). It comes to equalize 1-1 before Fleetwood, to surpass 2-1 to Peterborough and to overcome 1-0 to Bristol Rovers as it was mentioned previously (victories 1-0 in the first time, 2-1 in the complementary stage and 1-0 in the second time).
Northampton:
Continuing with the analysis you should know that Northampton Town also plays in League One, placing in the nineteenth position of the tournament. Of course, after an uninspiring start, the team won 3 matches in a row and managed to get away from the direct relegation zone (1-2 win against Oxford a few days ago). These days, he has 18 units in total, having to extend his streak to forget about this problem.
And finally we tell you that the visit has obtained markers playing in this condition, after winning 2 games, match other 3 and lose the remaining 4 that played in this condition (9 goals and 13 assigned in their goal). It comes from beating 1-2 at Gillingham FC and 1-2 at Oxford as mentioned in the previous paragraph.
After having reviewed the details of this match I play for the bet “Scunthorpe United will win any half” due to the following reasons: First, because Scunthorpe United is a team superior to its rival, having to ratify it from the individual and from the collective . It is expected that the local factor will serve to win the game or at least a half. Second because the local team has added 2 wins in a row in their field and 3 wins in a half, showing that they can achieve this pick. And third because Northampton Town, despite having won their last 2 starts, could have problems in defense as they had in their first outings in League One. Given this reality, we believe that Scunthorpe will win 1-0, 2-0 or 2 -1 after the final whistle, assuring a partial advantage in the first or second 45 ‘minutes of play.
