Tranmere vs Accrington Prediction & Betting Tips (13 August)

Accrington have found the going extremely tough on their top-flight travels of late, with their previous four fixtures seeing them concede ten goals on the way to securing zero points. Tranmere, by way of contrast, have registered 10 wins in their most recent 13 home games at this elite level of domestic competition, not to mention keeping six clean sheets on the spin.

Accrington has a good average of goals in their latest matches, whilst the players have netted three goals or more in 10 of their most recent 19 matches at EFL Cup level. It therefore seems likely that Tranmere could be in for a tough evening, particularly as eight of their last 12 EFL Cup games have served up over 2.5 goals.

Accrington have proven incredibly entertaining to watch recently, not only winning seven consecutive EFL Cup matches to charge up the table, but also managing to keep only a single clean sheet along the way. For their part, Tranmere have both scored and conceded in ten of their last 13 home games at this level, so forwards should be on top.
