It's slim pickings for punters today as we head into the international break but there's one fixture in League Two to sink our teeth into.
Salford City host Milton Keynes Dons and it's a big game for both teams as they bid to get rolling after poor starts to the campaign.
These clubs have ambitions to play at a higher level than the EFL's bottom tier but their results so far don't hint at a promotion push.
Salford City have collected just two points from their three games so far while MK Dons are only one point better off, so they will both be desperate for a victory tonight.

Salford City vs Milton Keynes Dons top betting tips
A lack of firepower has been Salford's biggest problem so far, with Karl Robinson's men netting just once in five league and cup outings. The Dons have also drawn a couple of blanks, but they found their shooting boots last time out to batter Carlisle 3-0.
I still think under 2.5 goals offers a bit of value at 11/10 with Betfred though, given that bet has landed in all five of Salford's matches this term.
Salford City are at home and need to go for a win so I also like the evens on offer at Betfred for them to win over 4.5 corners.
Joshua Austerfield could start in midfield for Salford after coming on for the crocked Ossama Ashley in their last match. If he starts, Austerfield could be worth a punt for a shot on target at 11/4 with Bet365.
Hemel Hempstead Town vs Welling United top tips
There's also a few games in the National League South tonight and the pick of the matches sees Hemel Hempstead Town host Welling United.
Hemel Hempstead sit second in the table after six games and look in good shape for a promotion push, having won four and drawn two so far.
Welling United are languishing much further down the pile in 14th but have only played five times so far and could jump three places with a victory tonight.
Betfred can't see it happening, though, as they make Welling 11/5 outsiders. I thought Hemel Hempstead might be odds-on for this one, but you can back them at 23/20, and that looks decent value, given Welling lost 3-1 at home to Chesham United on Saturday.
Hemel Hempstead won 4-2 against Bath City in their weekend outing, so over 2.5 goals also looks worth a punt at evens tonight.
Aveley vs Dorking Wanderers top betting tips
At the other end of the National League south table, Aveley desperately need a win against Dorking Wanderers as they languish third-bottom of the pile.
They have mustered two draws from their six outings so far, and Betfred makes them 11/4 outsiders against a Dorking side sitting ninth after collecting three wins.
Aveley have lost to nil in their last two outings at home, so there might be some value in backing Dorking to win without conceding at 23/10.
The odds are also decent if you bet against BTTS as that pays 11/10.

🇳🇴 Group 2
Tromsdalen v Valerenga II
The home side sit 2nd & are priced up between 1/25 & 1/40 in places so expecting a routine home win. They’ve won 8 & drawn 1 of 9 home games & today they entertain a Valerenga second string thats lost 16 of 18.
However Tromsdalen have kept just 2 clean sheets in their 18 outings, despite those 16 losses Valerenga have managed to find the net in 14 of 18 matches.
Tromsdalen have conceded in 10 of their 12 wins while Valerenga have managed to score in 12 of their 16 defeats.
Tromsdalen won the reverse fixture 3-2 on June 17th
Tromsdalen win & BTTS 5/4(Bet365)

Apologies deano didn’t mean to post on your comment
Some first half that and at good prices well in. Thought of the day, Casemiro, Rashford, Fernandes cost United a million quid a week!
I’m trying not to think too much about united at the minute macca 😂
Liverpool didn’t get out of third gear, I think they went easy on you’s in the second half.

Salford City v MK Dons.
Salford and MK Dons 20+ booking points each 1/1 Sky
Difficult to ignore cards in this one. MK Dons have received three yellows in both of their last two games. Salford have received 12 yellows and a red in their three league games so far. Both teams have received multiple bookings in all of Salford’s league matches this season. In the two H2Hs last campaign, both sides received at least two yellows. Good luck.
10/11 now PD
Cocker, you can still get 1/1 at Sky if you do the “Build your bet” thing.
Cheers Chris but I have already placed the bet . handy to know for the future .
North Korea U20 Women v Argentina U20 Women

Argentina to score 7-5 BETWAY (13-10 HILLS) 🇦🇷
But of a speculative effort as for the life of me I can’t see why Korea are such short odds to win.
1-25 at hills FFS
True they won this years Asian cup beating Japan in the final after seemingly not playing for 6 years which is strange to say the least.
Argentina like others in south America are in brazils slipstream in women’s football but their results suggest they are of a similar level to the rest.
Interesting one. Argentina have scored at least 1 goal in 6/9 matches this year (2024)
North Korea have only played 6 matches this year – conceding goals on just 2 occasions (to Japan & China)
Prior to this year, the last time North Korea played internationally was in 2018 (possible ban due to political situation?)
Bet365 are offering Argentina women to score @ 6/4
6-4 is priced up like something like a lower championship team to score at man city or similar.
Going off match goal odds I saw over 3.5 quoted around EVENS which suggests they expect Korea to win at least 4-0 or more and I think that looks too wide of the mark as head to heads between Asian and south American teams in this sphere don’t happen often
Well played 👏🏻

2 of last 3 gone over 2.5 Goals including a 3 2 and a 2 4 last year.
These teams don’t seem to be scoring that many of late in league but after a further look they are getting plenty shots on goal. Gimnasia average 10 shots a game and Juniors 11.
Prices seem slightly out, so will try
Over 2 goals at 5/4 (stake back if ends with 2)
