Matchday 8 in the EFL League Two will see Oldham Athletic playing host to Salford City at Boundary Park on Saturday evening. The Ammies are unbeaten in their last four matches against this opponent, and our prediction is that they will extend that record in this one.
Oldham Athletic made a positive start to the season by winning two of their first three matches, but they have been slipping week on week in the standings since then, now down to 16th with seven points.
The Latics lost their last league game 2-0 to Rochdale, which was their third league defeat in a row and fourth game without victory. However, they did edge Fleetwood 1-0 in the EFL Trophy on Tuesday.
The hosts' two league wins this season came at home and with clean sheets, but they have not beaten their upcoming opponents in League Two at Boundary Park since January 2021.
Meanwhile, after three straight losses to start the season, Salford are now trending upward and got themselves up to 12th place last weekend with a 1-0 victory over Swindon at home.
The Ammies are now riding a four-match unbeaten streak in the league (W3 D1), but their momentum was halted in midweek when they suffered a 2-1 defeat to Sheffield Wednesday in the EFL Trophy.
The visitors have failed to win any of their three away league games this season (D1 L2) and have now conceded 10 goals in their last four league outings either side of the summer break.

Our Oldham Athletic vs Salford City Prediction
Oldham Athletic made an impressive start to the season by winning two of their first three games, but they now enter this clash winless in their last four league matches, while conceding two or more goals in their last three.
In contrast, after a slow start to the campaign, Salford are now in good rhythm, riding a four-match unbeaten run in the league. They did the double over this opponent in the last two seasons, and we fancy them to take at least a point from this encounter. Our Oldham Athletic vs Salford City prediction is a draw or Salford City win.
