What is your best wager for the match between Hartlepool and Stoke City?

[WinJonny]

Despite their poor league performance, Stoke City still has enough talent to defeat Hartlepool today. They shouldn't be losing to a League Two opponent of this caliber. The visitor has scored twice in each of their last two away contests, so theoretically they can score twice as many goals against the weak host.
Odds analysis: The away win came in at odds averaging little over 1.53, which was exactly what I predicted. I usually upgrade it to Away win -1 handicap.

Pick for the bet: Away win

I think Stoke will win this one comfortably because they are a stronger team than Hartlepool, with all due respect to them. The magic of cup competitions could prevail here, but it seems like a big stretch here
