Derby County face local rivals Nottingham Forest at the City Ground on Saturday and dcfc.co.uk sniffs out the betting value with the Rams' official betting and gaming partner Coral…
Nailed-On…You can make a good case for Under 2.5 Goals as the standout bet. Four of the last six away and eight of the last nine against Bottom Six teams have all gone ‘under’. Plus, 13 of all 18 away matches this season have too. But you’ll only get 4/6.
So the Away Win is much more appealing at 7/5. Derby have won four of the seven away days against Bottom Ten teams - so hopefully we can expect a positive reaction to the appointment of Gary Rowett as Derby's new manager.
Smart Money…
Doubling up the Derby Win & Under 2.5 Goals boosts your returns to 15/4. And the Win to Nil has paid out in five Derby’s away wins and is on offer at a slightly better 29/10.
It is also worth pointing out that four of Derby’s last six have been level at the break, so taking the Draw/ Derby at 17/4 in the Half-time/ Full-time market looks value.
The more cautious might point out that three of the last eight matches have ended in a Draw, on offer at 9/4. But the smart move is to take the Draw & Under 2.5 Goals option, which has paid out in eight of Derby’s ten draws and five of Forest's. You’ll get 15/4.
Long Shots…
Taking that thinking a step further, you might want to look at the Correct Score markets. The 0-0 and 1-1 scorelines are available at 15/2 and 5/1 respectively.
But the bet of the match is for newcomers to Coral. If you don’t already have an account you can take advantage of an exclusive Welcome Offer of 33/1 for the Derby Win! Simply sign-up with a £5 deposit and you can turn a pound into £33 from a genuine 13/10 shot!
