BETFAIR MANCHESTER UNITED VS WIGAN LAST MINUTE BETTING TIPS
We're just a few hours from kick-off and the Betfair markets are already heating up. At the time of this writing over $3,578,772 has been matched on just the outright betting alone! It's ticking up all the time, and I suggest you get in there and grab your fair share- this one is easy pickings if you're looking to back the odds-on favourite Manchester United. Currently, United are trading at around the 1.3 mark, slim odds for sure, but that's solid money if you're not looking for a massive payday. Wigan are listed at 13.5 and the draw pays out around 5.7. The outright betting is always fairly explosive, but for me the value is always in correct score, goalscorer and half-time/full-time. The layers expect a full-out match with over 2.5 goals being the favoured tip here at 1.92. Under 2.5 pays 2.08. I'm backing over on this one. If you think we'll finish over 3.5 you're in for an even hotter payday with over at 3.35 and under at 1.41. Over isn't a bad bet here, especially if United pour it on in the 2nd half. Should the Red Devils be up 2-0 at half-time, get ready for an onslaught from the visiting side. A Manchester United clean sheet pays 1.82 and 2.16 for Wigan to get on the scoresheet.Manchester United to win both halves pays out at nearly evens and that's a hot bet in my opinion. 1.95 is the price and I think it's a bit more appealing than backing them outright, I just see more value there. Draw/Man Utd pays out at 4.6, but I really think they'll get on the scoresheet early, such is the form that they're in at the moment. Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney are near certainties to score, Rooney especially as he was rested on the weekend. He doesn't tend to score quite as many when he's out on the left, but in a counter-attacking move he can come at you from all over the pitch. I think these two will pull Wigan apart. Ronaldo is priced at 2.1 and Rooney sits at 2.26. Darren Fletcher will likely start and he'll be looking to make a statement here as well with a price of 9.2 anytime. Nemanja Vidic is also worth keeping an eye on and the bookies look confident in him with a price of 8.4 which is below Ryan Giggs. Not bad for a defender. The favoured correct score outcome is 2-0 to United at 6.4 but I'm backing 3-0 at 9.2 and I may add an insurance bet in play for 4-0.
