£5 into £500 Challenge

With my balance now at £15 I'm going to have a go on Championship and Champions League matches tonight.

Wolverhampton v Crystal Palace

Wolves go into this game currently leading the Championship table. Their record is won 4 and drew 1. They have played 2 games at home so far this season and they have won both games. Crystal Palace are currently 18th in the table and are yet to win away from home or even get a point.

Team news from bbc.co.uk

"Wolves are waiting on the fitness of Chris Iwelumo (groin) for their game against Crystal Palace but defender Matt Hill (knee) is definitely out."

"Crystal Palace manager Neil Warnock is set to be without new striker Alan Lee for a second successive match. Like Lee, James Scowcroft has a hamstring problem, while John Oster and Paddy McCarthy are also struggling. "

With Crystal Palaces current away form and Wolves just looking unstoppable this season, I think that this will be a good bet. I will place £5 of my total onto this game and with ladbrokes price 8/11 this will hopefully get me £8.50.

Preston N.E v Nottingham Forrest

Preston go into this game undefeated in the Championship and have currently got a 100% home record. They are currently 3rd in the league and will hope to leave with another 3 points tonight. Nottingham Forrest are currently 21st and have the worst away form with 2 defeats and conceding 8 goals.

Preston will be pushing to get promoted this year and will be certainly eying up the win at home tonight. Ladbrokes have this game priced at 4/5. For my £500 challenge I will be doing a double with Preston and Chelsea.
