Our tipsters got their eyes set on a home win for the second leg of a Championship semi-final playoff.

Huddersfield booked a ticket for the Championship playoff final on Monday by beating Luton 1-0 on Monday, and 2-1 on aggregate, to leave just one spot left for the showpiece event at Wembley.

Our Bet of the Day, therefore, is on the second playoff semi-final on Tuesday. Nottingham Forest host Sheffield United at the City Ground with a 2-1 advantage from last weekend’s first leg.

Our tipsters have researched the upcoming fixture in detail, assessed the most likely probabilities, where the best value lies, and think backing the Reds to win again is worth a chance.

🎲 Bet of the Day: Nottingham Forest vs Sheffield United

Nottingham Forest outplayed their opponents for most of the first leg at Bramall Lane. A goal in each half of the game secured a 2-1 victory. Sander Berge’s injury time effort for Sheffield United, however, has kept the Reds on their toes for Tuesday’s return fixture at City Ground.

That said, Steve Cooper’s men have an excellent home record of late. They’re on a seven-match winning run at City Ground in the Championship, winning by 2+ goals in all seven. Three clean sheets have also come in three of their last four home matches, which could prove troublesome for Sheffield United.

The Blades have struggled for consistency, have won just one of their last six away games (D3 L3) in the Championship, and are winless in their past five visits to City Ground (D2 L3) across all competitions.
