A north-eastern bias to the live coverage today, with Sunderland at home to Norwich followed by Newcastle away to Wigan. As per my previous post, Sunderland 4-5-5 at home had to be backed to beat 1-6-7 away from home Norwich.
Lay Wigan to beat Newcastle for 6pts at 2.32 (liability 8pts)
Although boosted by their very creditable win at Everton in the FA Cup last week, Wigan remain in some difficulties in the relegation zone in the Premier League. They are 18th, on 24 points and even a win today will leave them three points adrift of safety after Villa's win yesterday. They are 2-4-8 at home, so it is quite hard to see how they could be as short as 13/10 to win at home against a team in their division. Newcastle have been poor on the road this season, and have a 1-5-8 record. Although, as previously noted, they have strengthened (and improved) considerably this year, a 5/2 quote does not exactly get the pulse racing. However, they have avoided defeat away in 6 out of their 14 league games (42%) and that has included many tougher assignments than this. They did play in Europe (at home) on Thursday, but Gouffran and Debuchy at least did not play (due to ineligibility).
Good luck with the bets today.
