Remaining unbeaten, Manchester United visits Blackpool, in a postponed game from Premier League.
The last time both teams were in Premier League, both games during that season ended 1:1.
Manchester United, continues through the season unbeaten, taking the first spot with 48 points in 22 games, away record of W2 D8 L0, scoring 14 goals and conceding 12 in those games. Although the team is unbeaten, in 12 away games, six of the last seven games have been drawn. An interesting fact is that about 88% of Manchester United’s goals have been netted after the break.
Blackpool are taking the 12th spot, with 28 points in 22 games, home record of W3 D2 L4, scoring 15 and conceding 16 goals in those games. The team hasn’t kept a clean sheet at home so far this season, but only Blackburn has prevented them to score here. Blackpool has been winning every other game at home, for six fixtures already, if we follow this pattern they are supposed to win this one.

Both teams seem to get involved in games with a lot of goals in them. Around 73% of Blackpool’s games have ended Over 2.5 Goals, while the number for Manchester United is 64%. Because of this fact, the bookmakers have lowered the odds of this bet to 1.53.
Manchester United is appointed as the favorite here for obvious reasons, but after 6 draws in 7 away games, would 1.36 for away victory be enough? The draw however which seems logical if we follow United’s patters is priced at 5.00
While the end result of this game is a bit blurry for me, I believe that I will back that both teams get at least a goal here. Previous scores, as well as the clean sheet statistics back up this decision, and the bet has a moderate odds.
