Welcome to your Picks & Analysis email.
Every week I research the stats & fixtures, across the leagues. With the aim of identifying games with top-rated stats match-ups, bet opportunities and the best prices available with the bookies.
Bank Holiday Monday…
Our Good Friday & Easter weekend picks gave us a winner on Cardiff -1 Match Handicap v Burton (won 3-1). And we were just a missed penalty kick away from a Both Teams to Score payout in the Premier League – Leicester won 2-0 at Brighton with two late goals; before that Brighton’s top scorer Glenn Murray had missed from the spot.
The Easter fixtures continue with a set of Football League games today, and two opportunities catch the eye in the Match Result markets. Our last five picks in these markets have won so let’s see if we can keep the run going today.

Stanley streak to continue…
Accrington Stanley v Notts County
League Two, Mon 3pm
- Accrington Stanley have won 8 Home games in a row
League Two leaders Accrington Stanley are on a 5-game winning run and looking consistent. In fact, manager John Coleman hasn’t made a single substitution during that 5-game streak.
At Home, Stanley have won all 8 games since the start of the calendar year.
Notts County are 4th in the division but have won just one of their last 5 games, and just one of their last 8 on the road.
The Top 10 Tables on our site show Accrington are one of the form teams in the land right now. They can rack up a 9th straight Home Win today.
Accrington Stanley to win is a best price 6/5 (2.20) with Coral, Ladbrokes, Betfred, Skybet, Boylesports, BetVictor, Marathonbet, SunBets, Betway. |
Cardiff to keep it going tonight…
Sheff Utd v Cardiff City
Championship, Mon 7.45pm – Sky Sports
- Cardiff have won 8 games in a row
Cardiff’s 3-1 win v Burton Albion on Friday landed our -1 Match Handicap pick at 5/4 (2.25), and we can get a similar price on them in the Draw No Bet market today.
The Bluebirds have won 8 league games in a row – making them the form team in the country right now – and sit in 2nd place in the Championship.
Tonight’s game is live on TV and sees Cardiff manager Neil Warnock returning to his boyhood club Sheffield United…
Sheff Utd had a strong start to the season but have floundered a bit since the turn of the year. The Blades have won 5 of 14 since 1st Jan and all 5 wins came against sides below them in the table.
More recently, Sheff Utd have won just one of their last 5 and that was against bottom club Burton.
Cardiff are around 2/1 (3.00) for the Away Win but I prefer the Draw No Bet option, which returns stakes in the event of a draw. Cardiff are unbeaten in 12 games and backing them Draw No Bet has given 10 wins and 2 ‘money back’ payouts in that period.
Cardiff – Draw No Bet is a best price 6/5 (2.20) with 888 Sport, Unibet, 11/10 (2.10) Bet365, Skybet, Betfair Sportsbook, Paddy Power, SunBets, BetVictor, Betfred, Boylesports. |
