Player Prop Picks

Top Pick: Patson Daka Under 0.5 Shots On Target -125 BetMGM logo

Patson Daka (Leicester) has failed to record a shot on goal in two of the past ten league home games. There’s a reasonable prospect that he will fall short of the mark, with odds of -125 on offer that he doesn’t cover the Shots on Target line.

Latest Patson Daka Player Prop Odds

Callum O'Hare to Score +550 BetMGM logo

Callum O'Hare (United) has netted three goals in his past ten Championship matches. When it comes to him scoring, we think that the +550 available is attractive when betting on the Anytime Goalscorer market.

Corners Prediction

Sheffield United Over 4.5 Corners +105 BetMGM logo

We’ve seen an average of 10.00 corners for United in their past 5 matches, while the previous four Leicester games have involved them conceding over 4.5 corners. There’s everything to like about the United Team Corners line which looks low and we’d expect them to go over at +105.
