We reveal the most popular bets in each English division in the Saturday 3pm kick-offs.
The ‘new manager bounce’ could be a factor tomorrow as Fulham host struggling Southampton at Craven Cottage. New boss Claudio Ranieri will be looking to address severe defensive issues as well as hoping that previously in-form striker Aleksandar Mitrovic can get back among the goals. As with Fulham, Southampton have only won once this campaign and manager Mark Hughes is being tipped by many as the next to get the chop in the Premier League. Punters are backing a resurgence from the Cottagers with a home win.
DERBY to beat Sheffield Wednesday
Derby slumped to a shock 3-0 defeat against Aston Villa before the international break, a result that broke an excellent run of form for Frank Lampard’s side. Their opponents tomorrow, Sheffield Wednesday, go in search of their first home win in the league since August. With the thrashing by Villa seemingly an out of sorts performance, punters are heavily backing the Rams to respond positively tomorrow afternoon against a Wednesday side that sit 17th in the Championship table.
League One leaders Portsmouth take on Scunthorpe, a team that are without a win in their last three home games and leaking goals for fun. Meanwhile, Pompey are flying away from home, unbeaten in nine away league games. A regular in this article, punters have been backing Portsmouth all season and reckon they will hold their position at the very top of League One with a win tomorrow.
Fighting it out at the bottom of League Two, Cambridge have managed to pick up two home league wins in a row coming into this. However, they face a Bury side that have lost just one of their last nine League Two games, scoring four goals in each of their last two league fixtures. With Bury unbeaten in their last four visits to the Abbey in the football league, punters see an away win on the cards.
