A RARE clean sheet for Dumbarton let Desmond down last week and as a Sons fan (yes we’ve found one) he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
He’s hoping for better luck this weekend.
He says: I’m sure I wasn’t the only one let down by Dundee United last week and I would think that will be one of Dumbarton’s few clean sheets this season.
This week I’m looking at the English Championship where two teams’ form has been better than expected. First up are a Huddersfield side at home to new boys Barnsley. The Terriers have started in great style by beating and drawing away from home to relegated Newcastle and Aston Villa.
Barnsley have also adjusted to life in the Championship but will concede and with six against in three games I like Ladbrokes offer of 10-11 on the home side scoring 2+goals.
Also off to a good start are QPR who are at home to Preston. Winless Preston will find it tough at Loftus Road and with Rangers scoring seven in three games take Ladbrokes’ 5-4 on them hitting at least two.
