Prices may be subject to fluctuation*

PLYMOUTH V SUNDERLAND, SATURDAY 3PM

Principal partners Sunderland are in action on the road this weekend as they travel to Plymouth, and the Black Cats will look to resume their quest for promotion against a team nearer to the drop zone. Sunderland currently sit sixth in the Championship table and won their last match before the international break, while Plymouth haven't won in their last three.

Sunderland begin as 11/10 favourites to come away with a victory, with the draw at 29/10 and the hosts 12/5. We also have several price boosts available ahead of the match, including Jack Clarke to score anytime, and Sunderland to win with both teams scoring available at 13/5!*

 

HUDDERSFIELD V SOUTHAMPTON, SATURDAY 3PM

Huddersfield have an unenviable task ahead of them as they welcome a resurgent Southampton side who have won six and drawn two of their last eight, while the The Terriers are in the midst of a four-match winless run and sitting just above the drop zone. H2H form also doesn't make pretty reading for the home side with no wins against the Saints in the last five, but Darren Moore's side will look to leverage home advantage in this one.

Southampton have been priced up with a Goal Supremacy spread of 0.75 - 0.95, with the fixed odds having Huddersfield at 15/4, the draw at 3/1 and S'oton at 7/10. Total Goal Minutes are available at 137 - 147 and you can back both teams to score at 8/11.

 

LEICESTER V WATFORD, SATURDAY 3PM

Although Watford will have the task of facing the Championship leaders away from home, they should be quietly confident of getting a positive result here after their strong recent run of six matches unbeaten, while the Foxes have lost their last two matches in the league. However, the Hornets will hope to avoid another drubbing at the hands of the hosts, with Leicester scoring at least three goals in their last three meetings.

The match odds have Leicester at 4/7, the draw at 3/1 and Watford at 5/1. This translates to Leicester/Watford 0.9 - 1.1 on the Match Supremacy spread.

In our spread betting goals markets, we have Total Goal Minutes at 130 - 140, Total Goals at 2.6 - 2.8 and 1st Match Goal at 34 - 37. Remember we have plenty of info and guides if you want to learn more about football spread betting.

 

NORWICH CITY V QPR, SATURDAY 3PM

Norwich City seemed to be in freefall but arrested the decline with a morale-boosting win over Cardiff 3-2 on the road before the international break, and David Wagner will hope his side have turned a corner and can continue their resurgence against QPR at Carrow Road. 

QPR meanwhile have been in horrendous form, winless since September and sitting just one place above bottom. The Hoops did however get a 0-0 draw in both their last match and their last meeting with Norwich at this ground, and the same result can be backed at 7/1.

The Total Goals spread is 2.7 - 2.9 and if nothing else this season, Norwich’s games have seen plenty of goals at both ends with Total Goal Minutes available to buy or sell at 136 - 146.

 

PRESTON V CARDIFF, SATURDAY 3PM

Cardiff are on the road here and will face a Preston side who are coming off two morale-boosting victories, meaning the Bluebirds will likely need to bring their A-game to come away from this one with a positive result.

While the home side sit in the play-off positions in fifth, Cardiff are only four points behind in ninth and can close that gap significantly if they can grab the win here, meaning there is much to play for.

Cardiff are available at 11/5 to get the job done, with Preston at 7/5 for a home win and the draw at 11/5.

 

STOKE V BLACKBURN, SATURDAY 3PM

Blackburn face a trip to Stoke and although Rovers sit two places above the Potters in the league standings, it is the home side who have been in far stronger form of late and will probably be frustrated that the international break came when it did.

A five-match unbeaten run and beating the visitors 3-2 in the last meeting here will give them confidence, but Blackburn have won three of the last five against Stoke and actually won their last two league away matches.

While Stoke have been among the lowest scoring teams in the league so far, Blackburn have seen goals flying in with consistency at both ends of the pitch and we have Total Goals priced at 2.2 - 2.4 here, with both teams to score at 10/11.

The match odds have Stoke with a slight edge on the Supremacy at 0.2 - 0.4, with the fixed odds having Blackburn at 21/10, Stoke at 6/5 and the draw at 27/10.

 

WEST BROM V IPSWICH, SATURDAY 5.30PM

Finally, the late kick off on Saturday will be live on Sky Sports and will see West Brom hosting high-flying Ipswich and will know the importance of a home win. Sitting just outside the play-off positions on goal difference, the Baggies can deal an important psychological blow to the visitors while giving their own promotion hopes a huge boost.

The match odds expect a tightly-contested game with West Brom having a very slight edge on the Supremacy at -0.1 - 0.1 while the fixed odds match odds are at 17/10 for a home win, 5/2 for a draw and 8/5 for an away win. Total Goals are at 2.6 - 2.8, and both of these sides have seen at least four goals in their last two league matches respectively.

We have several price boosts ahead of this one, including Jed Wallace and Conor Chaplin both boosted to score anytime!
