Free EFL football tips, 14/1 acca prediction and £40 in free bets for Saturday’s action
SUNSPORT tipster Craig Mahood has gone through Saturday's EFL card to bring you his best bets, top tips and a whopping 22/1 accumulator.
With a lack of Premier League football on Saturday afternoon, the EFL takes centre stage and there's a banker single and longshot - for those who love bigger odds - on top of the weekend acca.
The Acca - back with Sky Bet's AccaFreeze
This weekend's five-fold starts in the Championship with WEST BROM (7/10) hosting out of sorts Blackburn.
Rovers sit bottom of the form table with just one point from their last five games.
Staying in League One, NORTHAMPTON (11/8) host Wigan on Saturday looking to keep their winning run going.
They've won their last two but have made home their fortress, winning five of the last six with leaders Portsmouth the only team to beat them in that run.
Wigan were plucky in defeat to Man Utd earlier this week but have one win to their name in their last seven games and Northampton could have too much.

The Banker
We head to League One for this one and Reading's home game with Port Vale.
Reading's three games before the EFL Trophy defeat to Brighton U21's were 3-2, 2-2 and 2-2.
In fact, the 1-0 loss was only the second time in 17 games that a game involving Reading didn't finish with both teams scoring.
The Longshot
We've gone down the full time result with both teams to score for this one.
Oxford United (3/1) are at Carlisle with their recent form a bit sticky, but they can bounce back at a Carlisle with just one win in their last nine - though they have only failed to score once in their last five home games.
Wycombe (10/3) have hit a decent bit of form and could leapfrog opponents Leyton Orient with a home win.
