Friday, April 7 – 8pm
TV: Sky Sports Football

Good Friday night is serving up a very meaty Championship game for us. League leaders Burnley must travel to Middlesbrough who have second-placed Sheffield United in their sights and will be desperate for the three points. We’ve looked through the stats and found the four best bets for a value-stuff Bet Builder. 

Over 2.5 Goals

Eight of Middlesbrough’s last 10 Championship games have seen at least three goals scored while at the Riverside, four of their last five home league games have also seen Over 2.5 goals landing. For Burnley three of their last five league games have seen Overs occurring while two of their last five on their league travels have also seen at least three goals. 

Boro have scored 15 over their last five at home while the Clarets have scored eight over their last five on the road. This one certainly has the whiff of goals about it and there’s plenty of value here in the Over 2.5 goals market. 

Over 10.5 Corners

You’d have to expect with two attacking teams that we’re going to see plenty of corners here, the hosts are averaging just shy of seven corners per home league game this season while the travelling side have been chalking up 4.56 on their league travels on average.

We’re expecting a ding-dong end-to-end affair here and at least 11 corners between them.

Chupa Akpom to Score Anytime

Former Arsenal and PAOK striker Chupa Akpom has been simply on fire this season, scoring 25 goals over his 32 Championship appearances.

Over his last five home league games he’s netted a whopping eight goals. In such mighty form we just cannot leave him out of our Bet Builder. 

Under 3.5 Cards

Over recent home/away games both teams have been very much behaving themselves. ‘Boro have only collected eight bookings over their last five home games while the visitors have only received six over their most recent away encounters.

Hard to see many cards being produced here but we’re playing it safe by allowing up to three.
