Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

For those unfamiliar with that term, this simply means that 2 goals or fewer will be scored in total as Sheff Utd and West Brom go head-to-head. Clear game plans will be required to deliver us a winner, but we have reason to trust both sides to deliver precisely that. The statistics and the odds below also suggest this is a strong tip.
