Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

A tight, highly tactical defensive battle could be in store as Sheff Wed and West Brom go head-to-head, with hardly anything between the teams in terms of who could claim victory. The stats do not give us any clear conclusion in that regard, but they are pointing strongly towards there being 2 goals or fewer in the fixture. It's a prediction which is available at best priced odds of 2.05 with the bookies, so we make under 2.5 goals our tip of the day on this one.
