O'Driscoll strong favourite for Robins post

 

SEAN O’DRISCOLL is long odds-on to become Bristol City’s next manager after the Championship strugglers sacked boss Derek McInnes.

BetVictor rate the out-of-work O’Driscoll 1-5 to move into Ashton Gate despite the former Doncaster and Nottingham Forest manager reportedly having turned down the advances of Barnsley and Wolves in recent days.

It’s 20-1 bar O’Driscoll with Steve Cotterill next in the betting, while Terry Butcher and Mark Bowen both at 25-1. Former Robins gaffer Gary Johnson can be backed at 40-1.

Nigeria v Uruguay

Home Win Draw Away Win
Key stats
  • Nigeria have kept just one clean sheet in their last five games
Expert verdict
Uruguay have work to do after their 2-1 loss to Spain but can stay on track for the semi-finals by beating Nigeria in Salvador. Luis Suarez and Edinson Cavani were starved of service against Spain but can make a bigger impact against Nigeria, who are facing a step up in class after their 6-1 win over Tahiti.
