We feel strongly about Exeter City's chances of leaving with a point, or maybe even more. That is why our betting tip is Exeter City to win or draw on the Double Chance market.

Exeter City has shown considerable courage and determination in their recent away performances, while Port Vale's form has not been the most convincing. So while an away win might be too much to ask for, Exeter City is more than capable of collecting a point in this match.

👉 Our prediction is: Under 2.5 goals in the match

It's hard to see too many goals in this match between Port Vale and Exeter City given their lack of goalscoring ability.

That is why we project the total to go under 2.5 goals. So if 2 or fewer goals are scored, the bet wins.
