The Most Statistically-Backed Match Result-BTTS Tips - 11/1/22

On Tuesday, Mansfield Town take on Swindon Town at Field Mill in a battle of ninth against fifth in League Two.

Nigel Clough’s side come into this game in good form, as the Stags have won four of their last five fixtures across all competitions, having beaten Doncaster Rovers 3-2 in the FA Cup Second Round, as well as defeating Carlisle United 1-0, Salford City 2-1 and 3-2, before narrowly losing to Championship outfit Middlesbrough in the FA Cup on the weekend.

Swindon are in a run of poor form of late, of which their 4-1 thumping at the hands of Manchester City in the FA Cup won’t have enhanced their confidence. Town had hammered Northampton 5-2 before this mammoth tie against the Citizens, but, prior to their victory over the Cobblers, they had managed just one point from three games, having drawn 0-0 against Stevenage, on top of 2-0 and 4-1 losses to Barrow and Leyton Orient.

Sunderland and Lincoln City go head to head with each other at the Stadium of Light on Tuesday night.

At present, Lee Johnson’s side are second in League One having accumulated 50 points from 25 matches, whilst the Imps have half as many points as the Black Cats having played two fewer games.

The last meeting between these two sides resulted in a 2-1 win for Sunderland back in October in the EFL Cup, thanks to goals by Dan Neil and Stephen Wearne gave the Black Cats all three points in Group F.

Johnson’s men come into this match in decent form, as they have bounced back well from a 1-1 draw with Ipswich Town, as well as a 5-1 loss to Arsenal, defeating the likes of Doncaster Rovers 3-0 and Sheffield Wednesday 5-0, before drawing 3-3 with Wycombe Wanderers last time out.

Lincoln managed a 2-0 win in their last match against Oxford United 2-0, ending a poor run of results that had seen Michael Appleton’s side lose 3-2 to MK Dons, as well as drawing 2-2 with Cheltenham Town, on top of 2-0 and 1-0 defeats to Crewe Alexandra and Hartlepool United.

The second tip from League Two sees Forest Green Rovers host Colchester United at the New Lawn Stadium with Rob Edwards’ side looking to further solidfy their place at the top of the table.

Rovers currently have 48 points from 22 matches, seeing them have a seven-point gap on Tranmere with one game in hand. Forest Green have won two of their last five fixtures, having narrowly lost to Chelsea’s under 21’s in the EFL Trophy, before beating Harrogate Town 4-1, drawing 5-5 against Oldham Athletic, as well as defeating Stevenage 2-0 and only managing a 0-0 draw at home to Exeter City last time out.

Colchester will need a drastic turnaround in results if they are to start looking up the table again, as Hayden Mullins’ side have lost four of their last five matches, firstly doing so 2-1 against Wigan Athletic in the FA Cup, before drawing 0-0 with Bradford City and being defeated 3-0, 3-1 and 2-1 by Walsall, Crawley Town and Sutton United.

MK Dons face fierce rivals AFC Wimbledon at Stadium MK on Tuesday night in a meeting of seventh against 18th in League One.

The home side come into this match as favourites despite their poor form of late, as they could only manage a 1-1 draw against Accrington Stanley on the weekend in the aftermath of a 0-0 draw with Gillingham and a 1-0 defeat to Charlton Athletic in the EFL Trophy. MK’s last victory was on Boxing Day when they beat Lincoln City 3-2, having lost to Oxford United 2-1 prior to this.

Wimbledon suffered FA Cup humiliation at the weekend when they were beaten 2-0 by Boreham Wood. In the run-up to their FA Cup match, they had lost 3-0 to Oxford, drew 2-2 with Wycome Wanderers and beat the likes of Accrington 2-0 as well as Cheltenham Town 4-3.

The final tip on this list also comes from England as Southampton take on Brentford at St Mary’s.

Ralph Hassenhuttl’s men come into this match off the back of a 3-2 win against Swansea City in the FA Cup. Before their victory in Wales, the Saints had drawn 1-1 and 2-2 with Tottenham Hotspur and Crystal Palace on either side of a 3-2 win at West Ham and were beaten 3-0 at Arsenal on 11th December.

The Bees have won their last two matches across all competitions having hammered Port Vale 4-1 in the FA Cup at the weekend where Bryan M’beumo scored a hattrick, as well as beating Aston Villa 2-1 in their last Premier League outing.

Brentford won the last meeting between these two sides at St Mary’s 2-0 in the EFL Cup back in September as first-half goals by Christian Norgaard and Josh Dasilva sealed a comfortable win for the Bees.
