We reveal the most backed side in each tier of English football.
ASTON VILLA to beat Bournemouth (7/5)
Aston Villa put on a decent display on the opening day against Tottenham to show they were not simply in the Premier League to make up the numbers. It took a late brace from Harry Kane to finish off Dean Smith’s men, and whilst it will have hurt, they must take a lot of confidence from their efforts. They spent a vast amount of money in the transfer window and it looks like it could have been some shrewd business. Bournemouth on the other hand looked disorganised and sloppy against Sheffield United last week, drawing 1-1. They will need to bounce back here, however they are on the road and the Villa Park faithful will be looking to make their ground a fortress this season. Oddschecker users have been backing Aston Villa heavily this weekend to kick start their return to the top flight. You can back them at a best price of 7/5.
Leeds have started their season like they mean business. They may have drawn their last game in the league to Nottingham Forest, however, they dominated that game and really should have won. They played Bristol City off the park on the opening weekend of the season, showing the rest of the league that Leeds were not to be sniffed at. Punters are backing them to beat a Wigan side who lost 3-0 to Preston last week and were thoroughly outplayed. Leeds are on the road but will no doubt have a brilliant away following. Their fans will be excited to see young Eddie Nketiah in the league for the first time, having impressed midweek in the cup. There is a lot to like about this Leeds team and it is no wonder Oddschecker users are backing them this weekend. They are a best price of 10/11.
IPSWICH to beat Peterborough (39/19)
Ipswich have started life in League 1 brightly with a win and a draw against tough opponents. They really should have beaten Sunderland last weekend, having only allowed one shot on their goal. They should take a lot from that game though and Paul Lambert will realise he has a talented group of players that should brush away this Peterborough side. James Norwood will be looking to open his account for the season and will be a nightmare for the Peterborough defence. Peterborough were busy in the transfer window, with many backing them to be right up there this season. However, they have not clicked so far this season losing twice. They have a tough task in the form of Ipswich and their new signings will need to gel quickly to get anything from this game. You can back Ipswich at a tasty best price of 39/19.
Newport Country v PLYMOUTH (23/10)
Plymouth are flying at the top of League Two and it is obvious why punters have been getting their money down on them. They beat Colchester comfortably last week and thumped Crewe 3-0 on the opening day of the season. They have not let their relegation last season affect them so far, and look like they have too much quality for other teams in this league. Newport County have only managed two draws so far this season. They played out a poor 0-0 draw last week, without ever threatening the goal. They also failed to defeat a 10 man Mansfield team which they really should have. Given the early season form of both teams, it is no wonder Oddschecker users fancy the chances of Plymouth. They are an enticing best price of 23/10.
