Blackpool vs Accrington Stanley Predictions, Betting Tips and Match Previews

With both of these sides chasing down a spot in the play-off places it looks like a match which has the potential to be a cracker when Blackpool host Accrington this bank holiday. Given the relative form of both of these sides it seems prudent to back Stanley to get at least a point, and backing them on the double chance option is available at 8/11 with bet365. For our correct score tip we think that Accrington will be able to go back to Lancashire with all three points when they secure a 2-1 victory, which is priced at 10/1 with the same site.

Two defeats in a row means that Blackpool have slipped out of the top seven and their place in the play-offs come the end of the season is looking under threat as they have a difficult run in. The Tangerines have got much of their success on the back of a solid defence but with six goals conceded in the last four games there are signs that their defence is beginning to creek. They have also been fairly average at home and 60% of their visitors have managed to leave with at least a point.

Visiting Bloomfield Road is the most in form side in League Two. Accrington have claimed 20 points from their previous eight games and they now sit just four points from the top seven. Stanley still have plenty of sides to overtake if they are to achieve their aim but they are one of the most prolific sides around at the moment and the fact that they have scored 17 goals in those same eight games means that they will fear nobody. Accrington have a modest away record this season but that is something which has changed of late and they are undefeated in their last six games on the road.
