Player Prop Picks

Top Pick: Tom Fellows to Score +540 BetMGM logo

Corners Prediction

Derby Under 4.5 Corners -138 BetMGM logo

The 4.5 corners line has not been covered by Derby in their past nine away games, while the previous 10 West Brom home matches have seen them concede an average of 3.90 corners. There’s everything to like about the Derby Team Corners line which looks too big and we’d expect them to go under at -138.
