Tuesday Football- Black Cats to End Reds Title Hopes
Tonight’s Best Bet: Huddersfield Home Win 11/10 (Ladbrokes)
Premier League
After their shock defeat by Middlesbrough, Liverpool need to pick up all three points from their home match against Sunderland tonight if they are to keep any hope of winning the title alive.
Liverpool remain undefeated at Anfield this season , but they’ve drawn six times (including draws against Stoke and Hull) and it’s this in ability to see teams off at home that may well cost them the title.
Tonight’s opponents Sunderland have drawn three of their last four away games and we’re tipping them to put an end to Liverpool’s title hopes by taking a point tonight.
We’re taking ex Liverpool player Djibril Cisse to get the first goal 10/1 (Paddypower).
The draw is 10/3 (Skybet) and that’s our pick.
Our prediction is a 1-1 draw at odds of 15/2 (Bet365).
One goal in their last five league games highlight’s Arsenal’s problem at the moment, but their overall play has been good and we think some team will end up on the wrong end of a huge score when ,or if, Arsenal click. There’s every chance that team could be West Brom, who have looked open at the back in numerous matches this season.
Our prediction is a win for Arsenal 3/5 (Partybets) with a correct score of 3-1 19/1 (Betfair).
Portsmouth have managed a draw and a win in their last two games, but they look set to lose all three points to Chelsea tonight. Chelsea still have their sights set on catching Manchester United and having won on four of their last five visits to Portsmouth Chelsea look certain winner tonight.
Our prediction is a Chelsea win 4/7 (Coral) with a correct score of 2-0 6/1 (VCBet)
Championship
Burnley have lost form of late with only one win in five games , but opponents Blackpool look to be in even worse form and we can see Burnley winning this match at decent odds.
Our prediction is a Burnley win at 6/4 (Partybets).
Ipswich haven’t lost at home to a side from the bottom half of the table this season and even with opponents Southampton winning their last two games, home advantage for Ipswich should be enough to see them win.
Our prediction is an Ipswich win 8/11 (Paddypower). Our correct score tip is 2-1 8/1 (Skybet).
League One
Huddersfield are unbeaten in eight at home and they should be too strong for Colchester tonight. Try a bet on Michael Collins 7/1 (Ladbrokes) to be first goalscorer.
Our prediction is a Huddersfield win 11/10 (Ladbrokes) with a 2-1 scoreline 7/1 (Partybets).
Despite drawing their last three home matches Leicester still have a 12 points lead at the top of the table and are unbeaten in 21 matches. Opponents Stockport are just outside the platy-off places but they have lost four of their last six away games.
This could be quite a tight match but we’re going wit the home side to just shade it.
Our prediction is a Leicester win 4/7 (VCbet). Our correct score pick is 1-0 31/5 (Betfair).
League Two
Wycombe have seen their lead wiped out at the top of the table and they are now only third. They can put three points on the board tonight when lowly Chester City visit to maintain their title challenge.
Our prediction Wycombe to win 4/9 (Coral) with a 1-0 11/2 (Bet365) correct score bet our pick.
Bradford have excellent home form and they can put that to good advantage when Macclesfield come calling tonight. Bradford are unbeaten in 13 at home and with Macclesfield’s away form being indifferent this looks a solid home bet.
Our prediction Bradford win at 4/6 (Paddypower).
Scotland
Falkirk have a decent home record against Dundee United and they look a decent price tonight against a United side without a win in their last four SPL games. Neither side score a lot of goals so the under 2.5 goals bet at 3/5 (Bet365) looks a banker.
Our prediction is a Falkirk win 7/4 (Ladbrokes).
In the other SPL match tonight between St Mirren and Aberdeen we can’t separate the two sides and this looks like a game that could finish all square.
Our prediction is a draw 11/5 (Partybets) and we’re tipping a scoreline of 0-0 17/2 (Skybet).
