Oldham Athletic are 13/10 favourites to get the better of a resurgent Blackpool (9/4) this weekend, while the draw can be backed at 11/5 with Football League sponsors, Sky Bet.
With the reverse fixture to be played in just 10 days’ time, John Sheridan’s men will be keen to make home advantage count and the Latics are 11/4 to win by exactly one goal and 9/2 to emerge victories with both teams scoring.
Rhys Murphy and Jonathan Forte are 5/1 and 11/2 respectively to score the opening goal of the game, with Mark Cullen and Jack Redshaw (both 13/2) considered most likely for the Seasiders.
