REF’s picks

Backing over 2 goals makes sense as both teams sit near the bottom and need a win to spark their seasons, making a cautious stalemate less likely. Neither side has defended well recently, which points toward an open game with defensive errors.

1. 1Both teams are struggling near the foot of the table and urgently require three points rather than settling for a draw.
2. 2Recent head-to-head matches have occasionally produced goals, and both defences have leaked regularly.
3. 3An early goal could force a cagey side to chase the game, though a scoreless first half might lead to a tense finish.
