Home 9/5 Draw 11/5 Away 5/4

I saw Aldershot in action against Grays in their last outing and at 3-0 they were cruising without actually playing well. One thing I will say is that Aldershot look to be full of goals this season. The Shots score plenty but they certainly worried me at the back so I'm going to go for Aldershot at 5/4 to continue their winning ways against Salisbury and if they do so they're going to regard away wins as very important, particularly with their excellent home form.

I thought maybe around even money for an Aldershot win but Blue Square go 5/4 and that's tempted me in but I think the real bet here is for 3 goals or more in the game, 2 or 3 goals is 10/11 and 4 or more goals is 9/4, that's great value.

I think it's sure to be a decent and exciting match. Salisbury impressed in front of the Setanta cameras when they won at Forest Green earlier in the season, while Aldershot were in winnings ways when they beat Grays 3-2 last week.

This is the type of match where if Aldershot are going to be serious championship contenders in the Blue Square Premier then they've got to look to be winning these games. We will see a lot more of Aldershot's qualities as regards their title chances by what happens on Sunday so it's Aldershot for me to beat Salisbury.

Verdict: Away win

Best Bet: 2 or 3 goals 10/11 / 4 or more goals 9/4
