Bet of the Day: Wolves to nick all three points at Sheffield United
Published:
Espirito Santo’s side look value to keep run going
Wednesday night sees a huge clash near the top of the Championship table as fourth place Sheffield United welcome Wolverhampton Wanderers to Bramall Lane.
Wolves are unbeaten since their only defeat of the season against Cardiff City. Nuno Espirito Santo’s team have benefitted from a big influx of money.
A new transfer strategy drawn up by super agent Jorge Mendes has seen the West Midlands outfit recruit some high-calibre players.
The marriage of the two has shot the club up the table. They’re the best away side in the Championship with three wins and a draw from four games.
The Blades are also in good form and will be no pushovers. Their derby win against Sheffield Wednesday will have buoyed confidence even further.
However, they’re only the ninth-best home side in the division.
The highest-placed side they faced at home was Norwich City in thirteenth last time out and that ended in a 2-1 defeat.
Wolves should be too strong here and that makes them Coral’s Bet of the Day at 31/20.
On-loan Atletico starlet value to score again
Having watched Wolves live a few times this season, the Coral News Team love the look of Diogo Jota.
The 20-year-old has been simply superb in the gold and black, scoring five goals in just nine appearances.
Playing on the left of a front three, the on-loan Atletico Madrid ace has been a nightmare for opposition defenders.
His ability to drift off the wing, cut inside and finish with aplomb has been unerring.
At 2/1 to find the net at anytime, there’s value to be had in backing the Portuguese under-21 international.
High-scoring clash in store
With two fearless sides in such good form, this really should not be a cagey affair. Both teams play really good, fluid stuff.
United are more of a counter-attacking threat whereas Wolves like to play possession-based, free-flowing football.
Styles make fights in boxing, and that’s also the case for football.
These two differing methods should make for an explosive encounter in South Yorkshire.
Coral’s price of Wolves and Over 2.5 Goals at 7/2 is highly-backable.
