Re: Coca-Cola League One 19-20th Jan

Leyton Orient v Blackpool
Orient are unbeaten in their last 3 homes while blackpool had an impressive couple of away wins before losing the chesterfield at the weekend. The away team have gone 6 games without a draw, but Orient have recently held Bristol City and Crewe at home.
Could be tempted by Blackpool

Millwall v Rotherham
Millwall have turned things round in recent weeks beating Brighton and Brentford away and gillingham at home. Rotherham meanwhile are in freefall and have now gone 7 games without a win. They did manage to pick up a point at Swansea a few game ago though.

Oldham v Bristol City
Hate to say it but Oldham look BIG value here. They are scoring goals for fun and picking up impressive results. They have won 9 of their 13 home league games and have gone 12 home games without defeat.
City's win at Coventry was impressive but you can't help but think the home team were merely lambs to the slaughter. In the league, despite an unbeaten run spanning 10 games, our away form is poor. City have failed to beat Leyton Orient, Cheltenham and Rotherham in our most recent away games and we haven't won away in 7.
I'm not saying City can't nick a point or three but on the stats, 2.30 is a very generous price.

Port Vale v Northampton
The away team have picked up decent draws at Yeovil and Tranmere in their last 2 aways but have also failed to win in their last 8 aways.
Port Vale drew with Scunthorpe but lost to Bradford in their last 2 homes but have now gone 5 games overall without a win. Any value in laying the home team?

Yeovil v Brentford
Looks like a home win all the way but backing Yeovil at 1.57? no thanks.
