Derby County host the Sky Bet Championship strugglers Sunderland on Good Friday. Here, dcfc.co.uk find out what official betting partner Coral view as the best betting opportunities for the fixture…


Gary Rowett’s side are quoted an odds-on 8/15 to win the match, which is probably fair based on Sunderland’s poor away form. But is too short a price to consider for a Single bet.

Luckily, Coral pay a 10% Acca Boost on all winning four-folds or bigger so you could save the Home Win for an accumulator. Adding three more Match Results at around Even Money will produce a payout of around 11/1 – plus your 10% bonus!

And there are better ways to cash in on the Derby victory…

For starters, all nine wins at Pride Park so far this season have been To Nil which is on offer at 27/20.

Six of that nine also went under 2.5 goals, so the Derby Win & Under 2.5 Goals is worth a look at 12/5.

Plus, if you wanted to take that thinking a step further, the 2-0 Correct Score has already paid out four times this season. Another here can be backed at 11/2.

There are more big prices on offer using Coral’s #YourCall bets via Twitter. Simply tweet @coral with a multiple of your choice and if accepted it will appear in the #YourCall section of the match bets.

For example, a carbon copy of the 1-1 draw in Sunderland on the first day of the season could be worth up to 18/1.
