Ciaran Doyle gives his best bet on DraftKings Sportsbook for Monday’s Premier League match between Brentford and Wolves.
Matchweek 30 of the Premier League concludes on Monday as Wolves travel to take on Brentford in a game that sees seventh place take on 20th.
Brentford are -180 favorites on the moneyline for this one on DraftKings Sportsbook, with a draw available at +340. Fancy a Wolves upset? They are +475 to pick up three points.
This bet can be found under the “Match Parlays” tab. All of a sudden, the Bees will start to dream about the Champions League. A win on Monday would put them just two points behind fifth-placed Liverpool. It would be a shock if they ended the season in the top five, but they have put themselves in a position where they’re right in the hunt.
The Bees will be licking their chops for three points in this one, facing a Wolves team that has yet to win an away game in the league this season. Although Wolves have improved slightly recently, all of those decent performances have been at home. They remain with only four points on the road this season out of a possible 42.
Brentford, however, have been excellent at home. A win on Monday would put them at 28 home points this season, with only four clubs collecting more.
The Bees have dominated this fixture in recent meetings, winning three of the last four Premier League fixtures between the teams and drawing one. In all four of those games, two or more goals were scored.
Brentford are 28 points and 13 places ahead of Wolves in the table for a reason. They have the better team, they’re at home and they have a lot more to play for at this time of the season than a Wolves team who have realistically had their fate sealed for months.
The Bees will win this one, and two or more goals will be scored for the fifth straight meeting.
The Pick: Brentford Win and Over 1.5 (-130)
