Cross-Sport Multiple: Bank on a John Smith's stalemate.
Andrew Hughes thinks Huddersfield can hold Premier League Wigan to a draw and help land a Sunday cross-sport multiple in the process...
Betfair now gives you the facility to mix and match your multiples across a huge range of sports and markets with the easy-to-use betslip and so each weekend I've been putting together a cross-sport treble with the aim of showing the way to maximise your profits.
Bet 1: Back Huddersfield to draw with Wigan at 3.3
Roberto Martinez has stated his commitment to treat the FA Cup seriously. This is after all, the first time Wigan have reached the Fifth Round since 1987. But with twelve games to go they are second-bottom of the Premier League, three points from safety, and that means key players will be rested for this game.
Former Huddersfield manager Simon Grayson paid the price for twelve league games without a win, and Mark Robins is now in the hot seat. Still, the Terriers have gone seven games unbeaten at home, and reached the Fifth Round by knocking out promotion chasing Leicester City.
Wigan's form suggests they are hard to beat on the road, with just one defeat in six games away from home, and a draw looks the likeliest outcome here.
Bet 2: Back London Wasps to beat Gloucester at 1.53
It's fourth against fifth in the Aviva Premiership as two in-form sides go head to head on Sunday. Wasps have put together a strong run of five wins in six games, including a victory over former leaders Harlequins last time out. They've been particularly impressive at home, only losing one Premiership fixture all season.
Gloucester's away form is not too bad. Although the Cherry and Whites have lost their last three on the road, they've only gone down by narrow margins and those games were against the current top three in the Premiership.
Wasps won last season's corresponding fixture 26-24 with a late penalty, and this could be similarly close. Gloucester have only won one of their last six games at Adams Park, and with the forecast good for Sunday, Wasps pace and width should overcome the visitors' powerful scrum.
Bet 3: Back Whisper to win 14:20 at Ffos Las at 1.5
The opening novices' hurdle at Ffos Las doesn't look that competitive and Nicky Henderson's five-year-old Whisper can return to winning ways.
He holds an entry for the Neptune Investment Management Novices' Hurdle at Cheltenham, and whilst that now looks a little optimistic after he struggled when upped to Grade Two level last time out, he should be capable of beating this modest bunch of novices.
The biggest challenge will probably come from Nick Williams' Un Ami, who was staying on well at Chepstow last time on what was his seasonal debut. But he didn't look that fluent and will need to improve markedly if he is to upset the favourite. Whisper has already won twice on this track and should take this easily.
