Wolves vs Huddersfield Town
Sunday 25th November 2018
FA Premier League, Molineux Stadium

Live on Sky Sports Premier League – Kick-Off: 16:00 GMT

Wolves will host Huddersfield Town this Sunday in Premier League action.

The hosts sit comfortably in midtable whilst the visitors are searching for a way out of the relegation zone.

Wolves are favourites for this encounter and are priced at 4/9 by SkyBet. Wolves record has been perfectly symmetrical so far this season with 4 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses. However, they have not found a victory in their last four matches and will be hoping for a quick start. Raul Jimenez is the main goal threat for the hosts and is Wolves top scorer this season with three goals. He is priced at 4/1 to score first.

Both teams have had a combined run of 14 matches that have had under 2.5 goals. For them to carry on their rigid run, SkyBet are offering 8/13.

Huddersfield will have a tough test on their hands and are priced at 8/1 to pull off a shock. With only 7 points from 12 matches and 22 goals conceded they will be fighting relegation all season. They have managed to salvage just two points on the road this season. Going forward they are also really struggling. They have scored six goals from six different scorers. Striker Steve Mounie will be their best chance at a goal and is a danger in the air. He is priced at 7/2 to score anytime and 11/1 to score a header.

However, past form does favour the visitors. In their last three meetings Huddersfield have kept a clean sheet and Wolves have conceded. The Terriers are 4/1 to keep a clean sheet.

The referee for this match will be Kevin Friend. The official has averaged 35 booking points in his 8 Premier League matches.

Wolves vs Huddersfield Town will be televised on Sky Sports Premier League and kicks off at 16:00.

Prediction: Wolves 2 – 0 Huddersfield Town.

– The hosts have the quality to open Huddersfield up. However, they have struggled to score goals in numbers.

Brentford vs Middlesbrough – Match Preview

Brentford vs Middlesbrough
Saturday 24th November 2018
SkyBet Championship, Griffin Stadium

Live on Sky Sports Football – Kick-Off: 17:30 GMT

Brentford and Middlesbrough will lock horns in SkyBet Championship action this Saturday.

The bookmakers are struggling to split this one, with neither side flourishing in recent form. Brentford have fallen far down the table in recent weeks with only seven points from their last ten matches. Meanwhile, the visitors have struggled to find the net with two 0-0 draws in their last four outings.

The hosts are priced at 13/10 to win this one by SkyBet. Despite their poor recent form, their home form has remained a positive for them. They have lost just one of their eight home matches and have averaged two goals per game. Neal Maupay has been their knight in shining armour as he leads the top scorer table with 12 goals this season. The French striker has made a good partnership with Ollie Watkins and Sergi Canos as an attacking force and is 4/1 to open the scoring.

As mentioned, Brentford’s attacking prowess has been impressive as they are the highest scoring team in the bottom half of the table. They have averaged 1.6 goals per match and are 5/4 to score 2+ goals this weekend.

Middlesbrough are priced at a very tempting 21/10. Tony Pulis’ side haven’t been as prolific as their opponents and have the lowest goal tally in the top seven. However, where they make up for the lack of goals is in their defence. They have conceded just eight goals in their 17 league matches this season. They have kept a clean sheet in 64% of their matches and are 5/2 to do it again.

Going forward, Britt Assombolonga has been their biggest attacking threat. The Congo international has five goals to his name and is 2/1 to score anytime.

The referee for this match will be John Brooks. The official has averaged 43.5 booking points in his 10 Championship matches. For 20+ booking points each team, SkyBet are offering 13/8.

Brentford vs Middlesbrough will be televised on Sky Sports Football HD and kicks off at 17:30.

Prediction: Brentford 0 – 1 Middlesbrough

– I can see this being a tight and tense affair. Middlesbrough will just nick it.

Suggested Tips – Brentford vs Middlesbrough – (BET365):

  • Correct score: Middlesbrough win 1-0 – (link no longer available).

Suggested Tips – Brentford vs Middlesbrough – (SKYBET):

  • Player to score first – Jordan Hugill – 15/2.
  • Correct Score Group Betting – Middlesbrough to win 1-0, 2-0, or 2-1 – 3/1.
  • Player shots on target – Neal Maupay to have 2+ shots on target – 1/1.

Rotherham will entertain Yorkshire rivals Sheffield United in SkyBet Championship action this Saturday.

There are 12 points and 15 places between the two sides who have had fairly differing campaigns to date. The hosts have been battling it out near the bottom whilst the visitors have been in and out of the top two since the start of the season.

Rotherham are priced at 19/5 by SkyBet. Despite these high odds, Rotherham enter the match in decent form unbeaten in seven of their last eight matches. However, only one of those seven matches was a victory. Their home form makes for positive reading as they have won four of their last eight. Ryan Manning has been the most prolific for the Millers with four league goals this season. He is priced at 11/2 to score anytime.

Seven of the last eight encounters between these two at the New York Stadium has seen both teams score. Both teams to score is priced at 4/5.

Sheffield United are favourites for this match and are priced at 8/11. Their away form has been inconsistent with four losses and four wins. Billy Sharp has been the talisman this season with 10 goals this season. He has managed seven in his last eight and is priced at 4/1 to score first. David McGoldrick has also been an effective forward for Chris Wilder’s side this season with five goals and one assist. SkyBet have priced boosted David McGoldrick to score and Sheffield Utd to win to 5/2.

With this match being a derby, it has the potential to get rather feisty. The hosts have averaged 17.1 booking points whilst the visitors have averaged 15.9 booking points. 50+ booking points is 6/4 and a tempting market to either back as a single or add into a Request A Bet.

The referee for this match will be Peter Bankes. The official has not been shy with the cards this season, with an average of 60.9 booking points in his 11 Championship matches.
