Best Tip: Bristol C to win

A Championship home win for Gerhard Struber's Bristol C team win in the win / draw / win market is our prediction. Statistics suggest they're in strong form across a number of key metrics, and they should be too strong for the opposition. The odds from the bookies suggest so too, and when that happens you've know you're not going against the market. A Bristol C win is the bet we'd suggest, but we wouldn't expect a whitewash.
