👉 Our prediction is: Both teams to score

The best betting option for Edinburgh City vs Annan Athletic is the Both Teams to Score market - BTTS. After all, both teams need to seek victory and shouldn't 'park the bus' waiting for the opponent.

But that's not the only reason we believe in a game with goals for both teams. We also see value odds in the BTTS market when we have two offensive teams, as is the case with Edinburgh City and Annan Athletic in this game.

To guarantee a win on Both Teams to Score, as the name suggests, we need both Edinburgh City and Annan Athletic to score goals.

👉 Our prediction is: Annan Athletic to win the 1st half

Annan Athletic will head in to face Edinburgh City with a tough task as the away side. Their recent results and performances have been far from impressive, but in our opinion, they are being a bit too underestimated.

We are tipping Annan Athletic to win the first half because we see decent value in their odds. They still possess enough quality to cause some concern against Edinburgh City, at least until half-time.
