If you’re backing this one, here’s the real talk.
Chippenham Town at 7.6 to win feels a tad skinny given their Jekyll-and-Hyde act in the Club Friendly Games this term. Their underlying numbers suggest they’re riding luck — stats nerds would fade them.
Bristol Rovers’s 1.33 line intrigues, especially if their center forward (CF) shakes off his recent funk.
The smart money’ll likely poke at the Draw 4.88 — these derbies often play out tight, and occasion can kill attacking flow.
