Forest Green Rovers

Tamworth’s home record is respectable enough to keep them competitive, but their recent matches have been anything but tight. They have seen three goals or more in five of their last six, and that run included a 3-2 loss at Rochdale last Saturday plus a 2-1 home win over Carlisle United. With 52 scored and 66 conceded in the league, they are rarely involved in low-scoring games.

Forest Green Rovers bring a stronger overall position and an away record that also leans toward open football. They have 27 goals for and 24 against on the road, while their last six league games have produced four wins, one draw and one loss. Their most recent away trip ended in a 2-0 defeat at Southend United, but before that they beat Gateshead 2-0 and have enough attacking output to contribute here.

The head-to-head record also points toward goals rather than caution. Seven of the last eight meetings have gone over 2.5 goals, and Forest Green have avoided defeat in four straight against Tamworth. Tamworth have also gone without a clean sheet in seven straight league games, which fits with Forest Green’s ability to find chances even when they do not dominate.

There is a small tension with Forest Green’s clean sheet last time out and Tamworth’s home numbers being more balanced than their overall record, so this is not a pure one-way goals case. Even so, both sides arrive with enough scoring in their recent league form to keep the total line appealing.

My prediction is Over 2.5 Goals at 13/20. Tamworth have landed in high-scoring games in five of their last six, Forest Green’s away record features 27 scored and 24 conceded, and the head-to-head has gone over 2.5 goals in seven of the last eight meetings. Tamworth’s seven-match run without a clean sheet also helps the case for another open game.
