The Championship can often be a minefield when trying to find a decent bet. Here at bettingexpert Expert Insights, we’ve selected three bets for Tuesday night’s action and previewed each of them down below.
In this article:
Tuesday, February 14th, 20:00 (UK)
The Championship league leaders won convincingly once again on Saturday afternoon as Nathan Tella bagged a hattrick in a dominant 3-0 win. Kompany’s side have been a class above anyone else this campaign and they’re almost guaranteed to be playing top-flight football again next season.
Unfortunately for Watford, it’s their time to visit Turf Moor. Slaven Bilic’s side arrives here in underwhelming form with four games without a win. Burnley are strong favourites as you’d expect but you’d be bonkers to back against the Clarets at any price right now.
Kompany’s men have scored 61 times this season, more than any other club by some margin. Only Sheffield United have conceded less across the 30 games. Burnley are in midtable when it comes to cards received whilst Watford have been brandished the 6th most in the division.
With Burnley at home you just have to get them onside, they’re absolutely flying and have won 10 games on the spin. Watford will be a tricky customer but I’d expect the hosts to have that bit of extra quality.
Alongside a Burnley win, I’m expecting each side to receive a card in this clash. Both sides have been carded in 14/15 games at Turf Moor whilst all of Watford’s last nine away games have seen each side cautioned.
Tuesday, February 14th, 19:45 (UK)
Norwich entertain Hull at Carrow Road with both sides desperate for the points if they’re wanting to keep up with the top six. The hosts have lost back-to-back games without scoring whilst Hull are unbeaten in their previous three keeping shutouts in each.
I couldn’t call a winner between these two given the mixed forms but there is one angle I’m keen to get behind. Norwich have played five times under David Wagner, with the proposed selection cashing on four occasions.
Norwich have hit some decent corner numbers in recent weeks. They racked up a staggering 20 in the FA Cup with 7,6,5 and 8 in the Championship. Only high-flying Burnley stopped this bet from winning.
Hull have conceded 77 corners on the road, averaging 5.50 against per 90. I’ll expect them to be under a fair bit of pressure at Carrow Road therefore backing the hosts to start quickly and earn some corners seems a decent bet.
After back-to-back defeats, the home crowd will expect a better performance. Norwich have taken multiple corners in the opening 45 minutes in 73% of their home games.
Hull will be keen to frustrate, keeping another clean sheet is achievable but will be a tough ask. Backing corners looks like the best bet between these two.
Tuesday, February 14th, 19:45 (UK)
No side in the Championship has earned fewer points or scored fewer goals than QPR over the last 15 games. Neil Critchley’s side have won just once in that time and are currently on an eight games winless streak.
Sunderland have picked up 14 more points than QPR in that timeframe, they’ve lost just twice in 11 and are nicely priced to get a result in the capital. Tony Mowbray’s side boasts the 5th best away record which has seen them lose just four times in 15.
The last time Sunderland lost on the road was in October, they’ve won three and drawn four since then and will be expecting to maintain that streak in a side ‘lacking confidence’ according to the QPR boss.
With the contrast in form between these two clubs, getting the Black Cats on side looks like sensible. They may not walk away with maximum points but it’s difficult to see them leave London empty-handed.
In 13 of their 15 away matches this campaign, Sunderland have received a second-half card including an 11-game streak. 13 of QPR’s 14 opponents have been cautioned after the break.
The combination of the two selections provides a strong bet at long odds.
