Notts County will be hoping they can build upon their midweek win in the EFL Trophy over Barnsley when The Magpies entertain fellow mid-table occupants Oldham Athletic at Meadow Lane on Saturday afternoon.
Notts County had previously stumbled to recent defeats at the hands of Gillingham and Crewe Alexandra in what has been a mixed bag of results overall so far in this season’s fourth tier campaign under manager Martin Paterson, with the hosts picking up four wins, two draws but also four defeats.
However, The Magpies hold a decent enough record on home soil with stats of 3-1-1 12/5 so the hosts will be aiming to lift themselves further up the table with a result here on Saturday.
Oldham Athletic remain one of only three clubs in League Two yet to taste defeat away from home so far in this season’s campaign (along with MK Dons and Gillingham), as The Latics have made a decent start to life back in the Football League.
Despite slipping to previous losses in the EFL Trophy to Manchester City U21 and a League Two defeat at home to Gillingham, Oldham Athletic have since put together a promising looking four-game unbeaten run which includes picking up valuable wins at the expense of Cambridge United, Bromley and Cheltenham Town respectively.
Results away from home this season have also been solid where Micky Mellon’s side have been concerned as the visitors possess a decent away record of 2-3-0 5/1, which also includes keeping four clean sheets as well.
The Betting Verdict
Oldham Athletic have lost just once in their last eight meetings against Notts County and with some great results on the road, the visitors look a decent bet with the handicap in this one.
