Our best Annan Athletic vs Elgin City betting predictions and picks

If you are unsure what is the right bet for the Annan Athletic vs Elgin City duel, check our top betting tips for this game:

Annan Athletic to Win

This is a duel between two teams competing in League Two of the Scottish football, so it should be a pretty evenly-matched duel. However, the home team seems to be in much better position to win this game.

After all, Annan Athletic beat Elgin City in their last four h2h meetings, so that’s a tradition that we expect to continue in this game. Furthermore, Annan Athletic won both of their gams in League Cup this season, against better opponents than Elgin, so we can see them winning this game as well.

Over 2.5 Total Goals

Three of the last five head-to-head duels between Annan Athletic and Elgin City have gone over 2.5 total goals and we expect more of the same on Saturday.

That being said, only one of the three matches these two teams played combined in League Cup has ended with three or more goals being scored, but we can still see that happening in this game.

Both Teams to Score – Yes

Both teams have scored in just two of the previous five h2h meetings between Annan Athletic and Elgin City, but we can see that happening on Saturday in their next duel.

However, we saw both teams score in just one match of the three games played by these teams in League Cup so far, but we still expect both teams to score here.

Annan Athletic vs Elgin City preview: A very close matchup

Annan Athletic

After they finished third in the standings in League Two last season, Annan Athletic earned the right to fight for promotion in the playoffs. However, they ultimately failed in this task, losing to Forfar Athletic in the semi-finals. Meanwhile, Annan Athletic currently has five points from the two teams they played in League Cup.

Elgin City

Although Elgin City was only ahead of Cowdenbeath in the standings last season, they weren’t really in danger of getting relegated from League Two since they were way ahead of them. Still, it wasn’t really a good season for them and they will be hoping for more this time around. Meanwhile, Elgin City lost their first game in League Cup to Ayr on penalties.
