Premium Tips

Andy narrowly favours Wolves, though goals are likely in a derby.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Wolves to win and both teams to score21/5Wolves have been rampant going forward, scoring 11 goals in their opening four games, comfortably the standout attack across these two sides, and that firepower makes them favourites even away from home. Both teams to score is well backed too: Wolves have leaked eight in four, so a Birmingham side with five goals and a tidy home base should find the net, while Wolves will fancy their chances given their output.
Raul Jimenez and August Priske to score anytime11/1Jimenez is the stronger leg: Wolves’ focal striker with two goals in four games and high shot volume, 12 attempts, spearheading that rampant attack against a Birmingham defence that will be tested. Priske adds the home-side scorer angle with three goals in the sample.
