Our Suggested Best Value Bet For This Match

Best Value Bet Rationale
On the other side of the pitch, Blackpool’s away record in recent times is a bit concerning for their fans. The League One team has managed a mere two victories in their last nine away fixtures. Their defensive frailties have also been exposed, with both teams finding the net in seven of their last eight games. This reveals a vulnerability that Bromley, with their attacking strength, might exploit.
Adding to this is the tantalising statistic that over 2.5 goals were scored in four of Bromley’s last five games, and also in seven of Blackpool’s last eight. These numbers strongly suggest this encounter won’t be short of goalmouth action.
While the outcome of this tie might swing either way, a shrewd bet would be on the match result being either a Bromley win or a draw, especially with the odds being boosted from 5/6 to 10/11 by Bet365 at the time of writing (odds subject to change, T&C’s apply). Given the backdrop, this selection offers the best value, aligning historical data with current form, making it a solid proposition for bettors.
Bromley: The Home Kings
Bromley are undeniably in scintillating form at Hayes Lane. With a magnificent eight consecutive home victories under their belt, they are the team to beat at the moment. An impressive average of over 2.5 goals per match in this triumphant run speaks volumes of their attacking might. Positioned at a commendable third place in the National League, the last time they graced the second round of the FA Cup was a staggering 78 years ago. And with the form they’re in, they’re itching to rewrite that piece of history.

Blackpool: The League One Enigma
While the Seasiders have certainly been entertaining this season, they’ve also been unpredictable. Currently eighth in the third tier, their matches have seen a torrent of goals recently, with 17 in their last three league games alone. A troubling statistic for them, however, is the mere two victories in their last nine outings. This inconsistency makes them susceptible to Bromley’s home dominance.
Where the Battle Could Be Won or Lost
The midfield clash between Bromley’s Louis Dennis and Blackpool’s Oliver Norburn is poised to be a defining factor. Dennis’ flair combined with Norburn’s astute game management will undoubtedly be a duel to watch out for.
Given Blackpool’s firepower led by the prolific Jordan Rhodes, who boasts a commendable 9 goals this season, and Bromley’s defensive stalwarts like Deji Elerewe, the game might be decided in the final third.
Opinion Corner
Both teams are potent in front of goal, but they have distinct flaws. Bromley needs to be wary of losing the ball in midfield, while Blackpool could tighten up defensively. Managerially, while Andy Woodman has done wonders with Bromley, Blackpool’s coaching staff needs a tad more tactical flexibility in away games.
Predictions
- Match Outcome: Considering the home form of Bromley and Blackpool’s away woes, a draw seems the most likely result. A WIN-DRAW-WIN market prediction leans towards a draw.
- Correct Score Prediction: Analysing the goal-scoring prowess of both teams, a 2-2 draw seems to be a probable outcome.
- Goalscorer Prediction: With 9 goals to his name, Jordan Rhodes of Blackpool is our pick to find the net in this game.
- First Half Result: Given the starting momentum Bromley usually showcases at home, they could have the edge leading at half time.
