Main Match Prediction

We’re not expecting too many goals to be scored when it comes to this League One encounter. On this basis, we’re wagering Under 2.5 Goals and this selection is on offer at -152.

Key stats supporting our main match prediction (league matches):

  • The 2.5 line hasn’t been covered in 15 of the last 20 Wigan games at home.
  • The 2.5 line hasn’t been covered in 6 of the last 10 Wigan games at home.
  • The 2.5 line hasn’t been covered in 6 of the last 10 Orient games.
  • The 2.5 line hasn’t been covered in 3 of the last 5 Orient games.
  • The 2.5 line hasn’t been covered in the last 6 games between these teams.

We take note of any injuries or suspensions affecting each side before going ahead with our football predictions. The League One form guide and stats also help the team at Sportsgambler.com crunch the numbers ahead of the action.

Under 2.5 Probability

According to the latest odds, our pick has a 60.2% chance of winning. However, we have this number closer to 70% based on our in-depth research. This is why we can recommend this wager.

Looking for Bigger Odds?

There are a number of similar wagers and Under 1.5 Goals allows you to secure a larger price. However, there’s more risk as you can’t have more than one goal being scored.
