⚡ Hume 1+ Shots, Peck 1+ Shots, Over 3 Cards: Was 21/10 Now 23/10
Hume 1+ Shots
Hume’s shooting has continued to be underrated in the market ahead of the play-off final.
The full-back has been involved in some of Sunderland’s direct free-kick taking, which obviously helps his chances of getting a shot away, but he has also popped up in both open play and from indirect set pieces as well.
In total, Hume has averaged 0.74 shots per 90 in the Championship this season, which is already a decent average for his price here. However, this figure has doubled in the last 10 matches up to 1.43 shots per 90, this includes two shots in each of the play-off semi-finals as well.
Peck 1+ Shots
One player who looks very likely to try and break any deadlock is Sydie Peck. Peck has taken the highest number of shots for Sheffield United over their last ten matches, and has clearly been given more licence to support the forward players, especially when Hamza Choudhury is in the team alongside Vini Souza.
Peck now averages 1.28 shots per 90 in the Championship when taking in the whole season, but this shoots up to a massive 2.87 shots per 90 when taking in Sheffield United’s last 10 matches.
This includes taking at least one shot in each play-off semi-final leg, and indeed, Peck has taken at least one shot in each of his last ten starts, including four shots in four of those matches.
Over 3 Cards
There is clearly no love lost between these two teams. Their meetings this season have seen five bookings at the Stadium of Light on New Year’s Day, and two red cards alongside six yellows when the teams meet at Bramall Lame earlier in the season. Just for good measure, there were seven yellows, and five yellows plus one red, in the 2022/23 season meetings between the two as well.
There is an average of 3.4 cards over the last twelve play-off finals, and although only five of the twelve finals went over 3.5 cards, the one last year comfortably surpassed the target with eight cards given out on that occasion.
18+ please gamble responsibly.
