Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

We are making over 1.5 goals our top tip on this one, meaning that the teams will score 2 goals or more between them during 90 mins. Both Blackpool and Wigan's recent form stats suggest things will go that way, while their head-to-head (H2H) record also supports the bet. The bookies make it their favoured prediction in this market too, available at 1.17.
