Altrincham vs Dag & Red tips and predictions

Hard to take sides in National League fixture

There's not much between Altrincham and Dag & Red in the National League. The hosts are in 17th place with 12 points, compared to their opponents who are in eigth place on 16 points.

All results are in the runnning here which is why the draw is a genuine contender. With both sides looking strong in defence, a goalless stalemate is the pick but it's certainly not something to go mad about.

There have been some notable displays in defence by both sides. Looking secure at home Altrincham have conceded at an average of just 0.6 goals per game over their last 7 matches and Dag & Red have conceded only 1 goal in their last 3 games.

In previous matches in this head-to-head, 2 of the last 3 have finished on level terms.

It's felt that both sides can score as they could be well matched. It's not a strong view but the odds-against for the BTTS No looks more tempting for this encounter. In the total goals market, it's Under 1.5 in this match after considering the prices available.

Altrincham have drawn 3 of their last 5 matches. They drew 2-2 with Boston Utd last Saturday. Dag & Red have drawn 10 of their last 19 away matches. To wrap this up there is nothing to like about the home or away win odds. Stalemate beckons after what will probably be a low-scoring affair.
