Leeds v Accrington
It’s debatable whether Leeds’ heart is really in this competition – having only beaten Darlington and Grimsby so far, we just don’t know. If it’s not, then Accrington are capable of taking advantage. They are 5/1 to qualify which looks a decent price – and there is also some outstanding value in the correct score market, which we’ll also take a tiny interest in.
Accrington to qualify v Leeds @ 5/1 (Stan James) – 1 point
Accrington 3-0 @ 425/1 (Paddy Power) – 0.125 points
Accrington 2-0 @ 80-1 (Paddy Power) – 0.125 points
Accrington 1-0 @ 22-1 (Paddy Power) – 0.25 points
Birmingham v Blackburn
Both of these sides have struggled for goals recently so it’s no surprise to see odds on quotes abut U2.5. However there is some value in the 8/1 about a 0-0 – that result would occur in more than one in eight games between these two sides on current form.
0-0 @ 8/1 (Widely available) – 1 point
Man Utd v Wolves
Of course United are favourites. But they are struggling for goals, and suffered at the hands of Villa last time out. Wolves got a great 1-0 win against Spurs – and both those things will encourage McCarthy’s men that they can hold out at Old Trafford. They probably won’t – but at 18/1 the 0-0 has some appeal.
0-0 @ 18/1 (Widely Available) – 0.5 points
