Sat 15.00: Sheff Utd (5/6, Hills) are one of a trio of bankers, with Wolves and Brentford, that combine in a League One treble at 15/4 (Coral).
Sheffield United went 13 league and cup matches without a victory after beating Notts County on the opening day of the season but they’ve since improved, registering three wins in their last five outings across all competitions and two of those triumphs have come since Nigel Clough took over as manager.
The Blades should continue their revival this weekend, William Hill installing them as odds-on favourites at 5/6 to get the better of Gillingham, Stan James’s 19/5 outsiders.
The visitors have lost five of seven on the road and required a last-gasp leveller against non-league opposition in the shape of Brackley in the FA Cup last Saturday so they don’t go to Bramall Lane in the best of shape. Subsequently, Clough’s men should have the upper hand and they’re 13/5 (bet365) to shade it by a one-goal margin.
Promotion-chasing Wolves are 4/5 via BetVictor to continue their pursuit of leaders Leyton Orient by overcoming rock-bottom Notts County at Meadow Lane. The Magpies have lost six of their last seven in all competitions and should be no match for a strong Wolves outfit.
Meanwhile, at Griffin Park, in-form Brentford are a home banker at 1/2 courtesy of Ladbrokes as they host a struggling Crewe side that tends to struggle on the road.
