Match highlights
PremiumMatch analysis
Neither Rochdale nor Shrewsbury has won any of their last five games, and that shared slump drives Superior's projection for their League Two meeting on 1 September. The model backs a tight 1-1, with a 1-0 home win next in line.
Neither Rochdale nor Shrewsbury has won in their last five games
Rochdale's run reads four losses and a draw, while Shrewsbury's has been even leakier at the back, shipping four goals in two of their five, most recently a 0-4 defeat away from home. Shrewsbury's attack rating of 6.8 is a stronger number than anything Rochdale have shown, but it has not translated into results, and Rochdale's own scoring rate of 1.0 goals a game against Shrewsbury's 0.6 is enough for Superior to lean toward a narrow home edge inside a tight scoreline.
Shrewsbury have conceded double figures across their last two away trips
Four goals conceded in one match and another heavy defeat elsewhere show this Shrewsbury defence can be broken open quickly once it goes behind. LOSES IF: Rochdale score twice or more, since a bigger home win would match Shrewsbury's recent away form more than the tight 1-1 or 1-0 Superior has projected.
