Truro vs Slough tips and predictions

Decent match-up expected in National League South

Hold your horses if you think this match is a foregone conclusion. Logic says a home win is the pick but they could slip up here. They are still the pick to come through.

You may disagree but Truro might have reasons to be confident about adding to Slough's recent defeats. On the road the visitors have not been destructive; they've lost 8 of their last 14 away assignments. Obviously they've been up against different opposition but that doesn't appear to be the record of a team that will be confident about winning this.

These home players are making the most of a recent run of form and they've been causing problems. City scored at least once in 17 of their recent 19 matches and the rest of the team has been industrious too. In their current run they have kept a clean sheet in 2 of their last 3 home games.

Slough can be guilty of losing their shape away from home. They've condeded an average of 2.3 goals in their last 16 matches away from their own turf. Shots on goal have been conspicuous by their absence too. In each of their last 4 matches the visitors have scored one or less goals.

A less optimistic outlook is that they may end up in deadlock. The sportsbooks have forecasted both sides to get in on the act as they could be well matched. It's not a strong view but the odds-against for the BTTS No looks a bit more tempting on this occasion. And for fans of the goal line, it's Over 3.5 Goals that's the play considering the current odds.
