The Easter weekend is a busy one for us punters AND if you’re a footballer in the lower leagues in England.
Sunday’s Easter eggs will have to go on hold for teams in the Championship and below, as they follow up Friday’s round of fixtures with another full card on Monday.
So Good Friday feels a bit like a Saturday which is a welcome restart to club football after a long week of international matches.
Norwich (at Preston) and Watford (at home to Sheffield Wed) look the pick of the bunch in the Championship. The double pays just short of 6/4.
Further down the leagues Sunderland look generously priced at 19/20 to keep their excellent form going with a win at home to Oxford. Likewise Bolton in League Two have been on a brilliant run and are 4/6 to win at home to Colchester who have the worst away record in the division.
In Scotland there’s the Highland Derby on Friday night as Ross County welcome Inverness Caley Thistle to Dingwall. Both sides would probably prefer the three points than a cup win given the positions they’re in in their respective leagues.
County are just two points off the bottom in the Premiership while Caley are one of five teams chasing three play-off places in the Championship. That aside neither will want to hand bragging rights to their opponents and this fixture often serves up goals. Eight of the last 10 have featured Over 2.5 goals (1/1 Bet365) the same number that have seen BTTS (10/11).
There’s four live matches from England and Scotland on Friday and we’ve got them covered with in-depth match prviews as well as a head-start on some of Saturday’s big games.
