Ferret's Tips: Barnsley v Albion

Posted on: Fri 27 Apr 2012

So another season draws to a close and ultimately this must be seen as a highly successful first term back into the Championship with Albion heading for their highest finishing league position for over 20 years.

Coral - the official bookmaking partner of the Albion - open up by making the Seagulls their slight favourites (6/4) with the home side 7/4 and the Draw unloved at 23/10.

As has far too regularly been the case this season, the Coral odds compilers have the outrights just about spot on, so we will look elsewhere for the value.

Goals could be at a premium and therefore a 1-0 Albion victory is attractively priced at 17/2 and should be your opening play.

For a goalscorer, Murphy's law dictates that Craig Davies will net first for Barnsley, but our money instead will go on Gai Assulin to close out his loan spell with the last goal @ 14/1.

In the knowledge that any player who does not enter the field of play results in a refunded wager, we will also back Craig Noone in the same category (also 14/1), in the expectation that at least one of them will have a chance to land the bet.

Away from Oakwell your banker should be Swansea (4/7) to beat Wolves, while Tottenham must surely break their current poor run with a win over Blackburn (2/5). Completing a trio of non-Albion bets is Liverpool, who are 21/20 to win in Norwich.

Summary

Brighton to win 1-0 @ 17/2
Gai Assulin, last goal @ 14/1
Craig Noone, last goal @ 14/1

Swansea to beat Wolves @ 4/7
Tottenham to beat Blackburn @ 2/5
Liverpool to beat Norwich @ 21/20
