Paul Ince masks will be donned by the tangerine faithful for this lunchtime kick off by the seaside as Lancashire rivals Wigan come to town and we have got free betting tips for Blackpool v Wigan.
The cardboard face coverings are in protest of their manager facing a stadium ban for kicking a water bottle into the crowd against Bournemouth.
The seasiders may miss the motivation of their manager on the touchline but their strikers certainly need some inspiration after failing to find the back of the net in successive goalless draws.
Wigan meanwhile came from behind to beat Blackburn, Rovers were down to ten men and the tables were eventually turned in the 90th minute by an Emerson Boyce header. It’s unusual to see The Latics playing on a Saturday with their European commitments, but Owen Coyle will be hoping the International break will have revitalised his players.
Nick Powell has livened up the Wigan ranks since joining on loan from Manchester United, he’s scored a goal already since joining and always looked likely to be in or around the box. Likewise Ricardo Fuller is currently the home sides biggest threat to get on the scoresheet and despite his ever longing years, he still has the pace and quality to worry defenders and give us a winning football betting tip. The Jamaican is available at 13/5 whilst Nick Powell is available at 11/4 to score anytime with Bet Victor.
I think there will the goals in this match despite Blackpool’s inability to produce any excitement in their previous two games. I think 1-1 would be a sensible punt in the correct score market. This is available with Ladbrokes for 6/1. Under Ince, Blackpool have only lost once this season and have a stubborn resistance to conceding too many goals whilst it is unlikely that Wigan will make the short trip back empty handed.
My final bet tip is Blackpool to score the first goal of the match which is 11/10 with Bet365. In all 9 games that Blackpool have found the net, they have always scored the opening goal of the game. Statistics suggest that they do the same here, particularly in front of an expectant home crowd.
