Bet365 cannot separate the two teams that meet on Saturday at Withdean, with both the Seagulls and the Swans are priced up at 6/4 to win the match.

I tend to agree with this opinion, which is why I am amazed the draw is so long at 12/5.

By rights, Swansea should win - they are the best team in the division after all. But I am very happy with putting my money on the stalemate, and to enhance that stance even further, would also recommend a punt on "No Goalscorer" at 9/1.

It would not be right to abandon Mr Elphick though and once again you can back Tommy at 40/1, and I would also throw his defensive colleague Matt Richards into the mix at 33/1.

Away from Withdean I can foresee a couple of Premiership draws. Middlesborough v Portsmouth (5/2) and Bolton v Sunderland (3/1) are both worth taking.
