VBET’s expert tipster considers three standout football bets ahead of Saturday afternoon’s fixtures in League One and League Two:
CREWE v PETERBOROUGH TO END A DRAW
Odds: 9/4
Top-of-the-table Posh will be many punters’ idea of an away banker this afternoon. We don’t see it that way, though, and expect Crew to give Darren Ferguson’s men a real run for their money.
Alex are one of the best footballing sides in the division and perhaps have not accrued the points their efforts have warranted thus far.
Manager David Artell also knows the time of day and is sure to have his players trained to the minute for this one. It promises to be a really entertaining game of football, but we think it’s going to end all-square – with good odds of 9/4 for the draw still available with VBET.
ACCRINGTON TO BEAT NORTHAMPTON
Odds: 7/4
Accrington’s season has been severely disrupted by COVID-19 and they have only played seven games in League One. But following a pleasing cup victory against Barrow in midweek, we expect a depleted Stanley to claim three points here.
Accrington had looked in good shape before having to draw stumps, but they are still missing several key players. Manager John Coleman loves a scrap, however, and we think he will challenge his patched-up side’s innerresolve to keep at bay Northampton’s relentless aerial assault.
With this in mind, taking odds of 7/4 with VBET about a home win could prove a shrewd piece of business.
CARLISLE v CHELTENHAM TO END A DRAW
Odds: 9/4
A point separates these two in the table and we’ve seen plenty of cash knocking around for it to stay that way at full-time. Carlisle and Cheltenham are evenly matched, with both teams holding valid claims of at least remaining in the play-offs.
The Cumbrians have won five out of five at home this season, with freescoring midfielder Jon Mellish a central figure in his side’s promising run of form.
That said, Cheltenham’s away form is solid at this level and we can see them frustrating the hosts before leaving with a point. Odds of 9/4 about the draw with VBET looks bang on the money.
