Featured Tip from James Bartman

Pick Details

Sport / league:: English Premier League
Event / fixture:: Stoke City vs. Crystal Palace
Event date: Sun, 22 Mar 2015 at 2:00 AM
Market:: Draw No Bet
Tip:: Stoke City @ 1.50 (William Hill)
Tip Result:: Loss

Don't get me wrong, Crystal Palace will pose Stoke City a lot of problems this weekend, but Stoke City are a very strong home side, with a 9-1-3 record over the last 12 months as the home favourite.

Stoke City are coming into this game on the back of a 0-1 away loss to West Brom, which actually creates a bit of value, because Stoke City have a great record on the back of a loss, going 7-3-2 over the last 12 months in this scenario.

Crystal Palace bring good momentum into this fixture, having won three of their last four away games (albeit against struggling opposition), which has scared me off taking Stoke City in the head-to-head. Instead I prefer them in the Draw No Bet market.
