Bradford Trading at Shorter Odds Than Doncaster

Bradford City are regarded as having a 47% chance of winning this League One clash in the eyes of the bookies. It means that their current betting odds are +112. Doncaster Rovers are the outsiders at +225 which suggests a lower likelihood of winning.

If Bradford only draw with Doncaster, then the Asian Handicap -0.25 wager means you get half your stake back. However, you get a full payout at -125 if they’re able to land a victory.

The Total Goals market could be a toss-up considering that Over and Under 2.5 Goals are trading at a similar price. For those expecting both sides to find the net, Both Teams to Score Yes is available at -147.
