Launceston vs Clarence Zebras tips and predictions

Various opinions expected in NPL Tasmania

This strong home team will be likely to break the deadlock when they start trading blows. Don't be surprised if the floodgates open. There's not a huge amount of confidence in the match winner market though.

Launceston are currently in fifth place as they get set to welcome sixth place Clarence Zebras. With only 1 point between them, both teams will be keen to steal a march on their rivals here.

Bet selections with a two-star rating have performed reasonably well but they're obviously not confident predictions. The more impressive 4 Star Gold bets have made a return-on-investment of about 8% in the last few weeks. If still interested, the home side is picked and this is why.

Go carefully when analysing this clash but Launceston can ease past Clarence Zebras.

Whether it's important or not Launceston might have reasons to be confident about adding to Clarence Zebras's recent defeats. The last 14 fixtures have not all gone well for the away squad; they've lost 10 of them. This doesn't look like the recent record of a team that will fancy their chances.

The home side is certainly in some form on their own paddock. Launceston have scored three or more goals in 4 of their recent 11 home matches.

Clarence Zebras have conceded three or more goals in 10 of their last 14 matches. And the home side will take some confidence when they consider their opposite numbers. Clarence Zebras have only scored once in their last 3 away games.

Launceston have won 13 of the last 19 fixtures between these sides.

A less optimistic outlook is that they may end up with honours even. The sportsbooks have forecasted both sides to get in on the act as they can both be dangerous in attack. It's all about value though and with the odds-against price on BTTS No, that seems the better option for this particular encounter. As far as the total goals line goes, it's Over 2.5 Goals that stands out here considering the prices available there.
