Blackpool vs Bury Betting Tips & Predictions

As we predicted at the start of the season, Blackpool are in real trouble. They were relegated from the Championship last season amid terrible unrest from the fans at the board’s running of the club, and this season hasn’t seen any improvement on the pitch.

They sit in 20th position in League One with an average of a point per game so far. This puts them just one point above the first of the relegation positions, occupied by Doncaster, and a defeat on Friday could see them drop as low as 22nd.

They did manage to win last time out against second from bottom Crewe Alexandra, but they have still won just one of their last nine League One matches and lost six times.

Bury are sitting in a comfortable mid-table position, with no real danger of participating in the relegation battle but an equally small chance of challenging for a playoff spot.

A win on Friday could send them up to 12th in the table, although wins have been at a premium for them in recent weeks. They have only won one of their last six matches in League One, with two defeats and three draws making up the remainder of their results.

Blackpool come into this match with considerably higher stakes to play for, and they will be buoyed at winning last time out. They are also facing a Bury side who have lost four away matches on the bounce and failed to score in any of them. The visitors have only scored one away goal in their last eight attempts, so odds of 1.850 for a Blackpool 0.0 Asian Handicap Win look good to me. I’m going for a tight 1-0 correct score prediction at 13/2 as well.
