👉 Our prediction is: under 9.5 corners

After analysing the odds in the different markets, our best betting tip for this match is on the corners market and taking the total to go under 9.5 corners.

We anticipate Mansfield Town vs Reading to be quite a controlled match with the main action concentrated in the middle of the pitch. That should limit the number of opportunities for corners, and so the odds of 1.94 for 9 corners or fewer looks quite attractive.

👉 Our prediction is: Mansfield Town win or draw

The Double Chance market is an excellent option for those who want a little more security and a little less risk in their bets. Of the three potential outcomes in a football match (win, draw, loss), two of them ensure a winning bet.

And with the 1X bet, the home team has a higher probability of hitting on the bet thanks to the added advantage of playing in their own stadium.
