Torquay United

Well that is another win for Torquay and another shut-out which takes there clean sheet record up to a massive 961 minutes. They beat pre-season favourites Bradford 2-0 to sit pretty at the top of the table & whilst the season is a marathon not a sprint, I hope you all took the 25/1 we suggested in our email before the season started. They are now a best priced 10/1 with BetFred so if you missed out I suggest getting on them before it drops further.

Over in Wales, the arrival of Craig Bellamy has sparked euphoria in Cardiff and with a good 4-0 win today, you have to fancy their chances of promotion this season. While Bellamy divides opinions amongst almost everyone, you cannot deny his ability and the Cardiff City team seem to have goals written all over them. Not suprisingly the bookmakers have cut the odds on Cardiff City going up but newcomers
Eurosportbet are still offering 8-1 on Cardiff winning the league, which is the best available price on the market and is very tempting.

Blackpool v Cardiff Preview

Well its the £80 million match on Saturday afternoon when the minnows of Blackpool take on the not so mighty Cardiff in the Championship Play Off Final at Wembley.

There's no doubt about the neutral's favourite in the Championship play-off final and it's Blackpool all the way. They've got nice Tangerine shirts, a big beach and the madcap manager that is Ian Holloway. But you can't help feel that while Holloway's achievement at Bloomfield Road has been rightly lauded, the luminous glow of the Tangerine fairytale has blinded many to the success of the Bluebirds.

Premier League fans rub their hands at the prospect of Blackpool away offering a day out at the beach, but Cardiff's attractions shouldn't be overlooked, Charlotte Church anyone?

Anyway back to the footie and while my heart says Blackpool & my head says Cardiff, I'm opting to sit on the fence with this one and plump for a draw. Both matches so far this season have ended 1-1 and with so much at stake I think a draw after 90 mins is worth a punt.

It is a best price 12/5 with
Betfred Sports who will also match your bet up to £50 if you are a new customer. Another 1-1 draw is priced at 11/2.

The first goalscorer is a tricky one to predict as Cardiff have goals spread throughout the side with Chopra, Whittingham & Bothroyd all hitting double figures this term. However a lively outsider could be midfielder Chris Burke who has 9 goals this season, with 5 of those being the opening goal.

He is a tempting 12/1 with
Blue Sq and is surely worth a little wager.

As for Blackpool you can look no further than their pocket rocket Charlie Adam who has 16 goals to date, with 8 of those opening the scoring. He takes direct free kicks & penalties too so he's well worth following at 8/1 with
Stan James


Predictions

Draw at 12/5 with Betfred Sports

Charlie Adam first/last goalscorer at 8/1 with Stan James

Chris Burke first/last goalscorer at 12/1 with BlueSq
