BetGenius backs Fleetwood Town or Draw (Double Chance) at 78% confidence — a strong call. Total goals: Under 2.5 Goals.
Fleetwood Town host Shrewsbury at Highbury Stadium in the Round of 64 of the EFL Cup. The home side enter the contest on a positive run of form, remaining unbeaten in their last three outings with consecutive clean sheets in all three fixtures, including 1-0 victories over Chesterfield and a 0-0 draw against Gillingham.
Shrewsbury, by contrast, have encountered a difficult sequence of results across recent fixtures. The visitors are winless in their last five matches, suffering three defeats and two draws while conceding 11 goals across that stretch, most recently falling 3-1 at home to Barnet.
The historical head-to-head between the two sides has been balanced over their last 10 meetings with four wins apiece and two draws. However, Fleetwood took four points from their two most recent clashes with Shrewsbury, claiming a 3-1 home win and securing a 2-2 away draw.
