However, those who fancy the underdog may find value in backing the American.</p> <p>Neil Magny has won two of his last four three-round UFC fights as an underdog. At the same time, each of Magny's last four UFC fights has failed to go the distance, with a TKO/KO or Submission victory a possible outcome.</p> <p>Still, we do recommend backing the favourite in this one as our Matthews vs Magny betting prediction. Magny has shown signs of decline, with Matthews being the more reliable and improving fighter. With two submission wins in his last five, this could be a value bet, especially with the home support willing him on.</p>
