FA CUP REPLAY: The Striker looks ahead to Tuesday’s FA Cup replay between SHEFFIELD UNITED v WREXHAM with a recommended BETDAQ bet.
SHEFFIELD UNITED V WREXHAM
7.45pm The FA Cup Fourth Round replays kick off on BETDAQ Betting Exchange on Tuesday evening. We have four fixtures taking place, but the highlight is Sheffield United hosting Wrexham. This was a TV game too for the first meeting between the sides, and although Wrexham are miles down the perking order league wise, interest in them is very high because they are owned by Ryan Reynolds and have the TV show too.
They have already said they have plenty of content around their FA Cup run – the first meeting between the sides was Wrexham’s biggest game for many years, and I’m sure the replay will feature heavily too. The club shop actually sold out of home jerseys before the Fourth Round started because they had over 80,000 orders from Canada and the US. It’s amazing what a TV show can do to a small club half the world away from the target audience!
Wrexham came so close to beating Sheffield United the first time, it’s hard to see them doing better here. Not only do they lose home advantage, but they also lose the element of surprise too. Sheffield United will know their game now, and I’m sure the Championship side will change any tactics accordingly. The market is expecting a home win, with Sheffield United trading 1.49 at the time of writing. Hopefully we see as much drama because a 3-3 game with a last second equaliser would have made great TV (if it was for Wrexham rather than against I suppose!)
Sheffield United are having a very strong season in the Championship. They sit in second, but they are so far ahead of third they look nailed on to get back into the Premier League. Obviously Wrexham are having a great season at their level too, but it’s hard to gauge what that is worth given it’s the fifth tier in England. I would be keeping stakes quite small for this game, but I like Over 2.5 goals at 1.69. Wrexham games have been jam packed with goals, and while it’s hard to fully judge the level, I can’t see them sitting back here. That should make for another very open and entertaining game with chances at both ends of the pitch. Sheffield United were involved in a 0-0 at the weekend, but their average xG created in the Championship this season is 1.7 so we should see goals.
The Striker Says:
Two points win Over 2.5 goals at 1.69 with BETDAQ BETTING EXCHANGE.
