Shrewsbury vs Fulham U21 Betting Tips - BTTS
Shrewsbury turn their attention to the EFL Trophy after a disappointing 4:1 defeat against Peterborough on Saturday. A disastrous second-half saw Paul Hurst′s side concede three goals as they slipped to back-to-back league defeats-
Yet to pick up points in League One, the Shrews did claim a penalty shootout victory against Notts County after a thrilling 3:3 draw in their League Cup tie last week.
Still in search of a first clean sheet of the season, Hurst′s men have seen BTTS in five of their seven most recent fixtures, and in each of their last four home contests. Defensively vulnerable, particularly at the Croud Meadow, Shrewsburg failed to keep a clean sheet in 23 of their last 24 home matches since November 2023.
Fulham U21 make the trip north having not played since the end of May. However, the Cottages have seen both teams scoring in five of their last six EFL Trophy ties since 2022, and in five of their last six on the road since 2024.
While the visitors' inactivity makes it difficult to make too many assumptions about this EFL Trophy matchup, Shrewsbury′s inability to keep clean sheets in home matches suggests we should be optimistic about seeing both teams scoring on Tuesday.
The Shrews should be favourite to claim victory, but I'm putting my money on both teams scoring on Tuesday.
Shrewsbury team news
Head Coach Hurts will be forced into at least one alteration to his selection on Tuesday. Mark Feeney is set to miss out after limping out of Saturday′s 4:1 defeat against Peterborough.
