Our prediction is: Cheltenham Town to win the 1st half

While the half-time market is not a particularly popular betting market, it does provide a good deal of value. And this is true for Cheltenham Town vs Exeter City, where we have Cheltenham Town to win the first half as our best bet.

Cheltenham Town has been quite a fast starter at home as they quickly put the pressure on their visitors in the opening minutes. That strategy should lead to a Cheltenham Town taking an advantage into half-time.

Our prediction is: Exeter City to win

While Exeter City will head into their match against Cheltenham Town as the favourite, it is still far from a sure thing to score three points away from home. Nevertheless, our betting tip is still Exeter City to win on the 1X2 market.

Our analysis of Exeter City leads us to believe that they are quite capable on their travels and can come up with the away win without much trouble, even against a tricky opponent like Cheltenham Town.
