Back Liam Smith at 5/1 or Hassan Mwakinyo at 66/1 with 888sport

Liam Smith will relish boxing in front of a home crowd at Liverpool's M&S Bank Arena on Saturday night, with the scouser hoping that he can land a victory which paves the way for a title showdown against Chris Eubank Jnr.

Having beaten Jessie Vargas in April, Smith is the massive favourite to add another win to his resume against Hassan Mwakinyo, with the last victory coming in the form of a 10th round TKO when the fighters clashed at Madison Square Garden a few months ago.

While Smith is a big odds-on shot with betting sites to land a victory on Saturday, 888sport are giving new customers the chance to back him at a price boosted 5/1. 

It’s a really generous price for a fight which the light-middleweight is expected to win, with new players able to bet up to €5 on these price-boosted odds.

Alternatively, if you’re anticipating there being a shock on the cards at the M&S Bank Arena, then you can get 66/1 that Mwakinyo achieves a victory of his own and he’s certainly an opponent who merits respect after a successful career to date.
