Total Tranmere brings you a run down of the odds ahead of Rovers' League One trip to Rochdale tomorrow

Now four games unbeaten, Tranmere Rovers take on Rochdale at Spotland this Tuesday night, looking to pick up another victory that could leave the Wirral side nine points clear of the drop zone come 10pm.

Ronnie Moore's side will be looking to take the positives of Saturday's 1-1 draw with Sheffield United into the fixture as they go in search of a first away win since October and they will be confident of picking up a result against a Rochdale side who've won just four times in their last 29 matches.

That run of results brought about the sacking of new manager Chris Beech and he was replaced by former Accrington Stanley manager John Coleman, who was appointed manager in January and has so far lost just three of his ten games in charge.

Match Result:

Tranmere - 19/10 (Various)
Draw - 12/5 (Victor Chandler and Coral)
Rochdale - 8/5 (Victor Chandler)

Half Time/Full Time:

Tranmere/Tranmere - 9/2 (Various)
Tranmere/Draw - 14/1 (Various)
Tranmere/Rochdale - 33/1 (Various) 

Draw/Tranmere - 6/1 (Bodog and Coral)
Draw/Rochdale - 21/4 (BWin)
Draw/Draw - 17/4 (Boylesports and Victor Chandler)
Rochdale/Draw - 14/1 (Various)
Rochdale/Rochdale - 10/3 (BlueSquare and 888Sport)
Rochdale/Tranmere - 35/1 (BWin)

First Goal Scorer (Tranmere players only):

Enoch Showunmi - 15/2 (Bet365 and Victor Chandler)
Ryan Brunt - 8/1 (BetFred)
Jake Cassidy - 15/2 (Various)
Lucas Akins - 9/1 (Bet 365 and Victor Chandler)
Andy Robinson - 11/1 (Bet365 and Victor Chandler)
John Welsh - 20/1 (Various)

Anytime Goal Scorer (Tranmere players only):

Enoch Showunmi - 12/5 (Bet365)
Ryan Brunt - 12/5 (Bet365 and SkyBet)
Jake Cassidy - 12/5 (Bet365 and SkyBet)
Lucas Akins - 3/1 (Bet365)
Andy Robinson - 15/4 (Bet365)
John Welsh - 7/1 (Bet365 and Paddy Power)
Ash Taylor - 17/2 (PaddyPower)
Ian Goodison - 12/1 (Various) 

Tipster: Tranmere are now four games without defeat and have looked good value for all of the eight points they've picked up since Ronnie Moore returned to the club.

Following a confidence boosting 1-1 draw with Sheffield United at Bramall Lane on Saturday, only Rovers' second point away from home since October, Ronnie Moore will be hoping his side can carry their form forward and pick up what would be an important win that could put themselves nine points clear of the relegation zone.

I think that Tranmere have every chance of taking something from this game, particularly a win, against a side whov'e struggled of late, despite changing managers, especially as Rovers seem to have refound their goalscoring form.

I therefore think odds of 11/10 on 2.5 or more goals with various bookmakers make well be a good bet, whilst odds of 18/1 on Enoch Showunmi to score two or more goals with Bet365 could be a decent bet, with the striker looking in good form at the moment.

As a scorecast, William Hill will offer you 50/1 on Enoch Showunmi to score first in a 2-1 Tranmere win, whilst they are also offering odds of 9/2 on Lucas Akins to score anytime in a Tranmere win.

Please Note: Odds are subject to change, particularly on Saturday as kick off draws nearer or more bookmakers open up markets.  Total Tranmere does not encourage betting.
