We reveal the most popular bets in each English division and the FA Cup.
LEICESTER to beat Burnley
It’s set to be another emotional occasion as Leicester play their first home match since the death of owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha. In terms of the match itself, Burnley have lost three consecutive matches, conceding 13 goals in the process. Meanwhile, Claude Puel’s Leicester side are the only team in the Premier League to have scored in all of their 11 games so far. Punters think that spells trouble for Burnley’s leaky defence.
DERBY to beat Aston Villa
Frank Lampard’s side are flying at the moment and showing their promotion credentials week after week. They come into this unbeaten at Pride Park since the opening day of the season when they lost 4-1 to Leeds. Their opponents, Aston Villa, hold a less impressive record since the opening weekend – they have not won an away match in the Championship since then. Derby will be hoping to continue their climb up the table with a win tomorrow.
SOUTHEND to beat Crawley Town
With leagues one and two on hold for this weekend, we look to the 3pm kick-offs in the FA Cup instead. The most backed team in those fixtures is Southend United, currently 13th in League One. They’ve had a poor run in the FA Cup, failing to win any of their last four 1st round fixtures. However, they host League Two side Crawley Town, who have only made it to the 2nd round once since 2012. Both sides come into this off the back of defeats in their respective leagues, but punters are siding with the home team.
