STAT ATTACK:

Slavia Prague v Roma

Europa League – 5.45pm, TNT Sports

Romelu Lukaku has been in our notes recently. The big Belgian striker was on the score-sheet again last Sunday. Missing an early penalty, before redeeming himself by netting an injury-time winner in Roma’s 2-1 come-from-behind win over Lecce.

That takes the much-travelled Lukaku up to 6 league goals for this season, putting him joint-2nd in the current Serie A standings in Italy.

The 30-year-old forward will be back on European duty today. And he has a fantastic scoring record in the UEFA Europa League…

Lukaku has scored in 14 Europa League games in a row. A formbook quirk that stretches just shy of nine years, from his days back at Everton (November 2014)… via reaching the final of the competition with Inter Milan in 2020… and then scoring in 3 out of 3 Europa League appearances so far this season for Roma.

With all that in mind – and considering he found the net in the reverse fixture against today’s opponents Slavia Prague a fortnight ago. Let’s back Romelu to make it 15 in a row. Odds of 2/1 for Lukaku to land another Anytime Scorer bet look good to me.

• Lukaku has scored in 11 of his last 14 appearances for club & country in all competitions. Backing him to level stakes at 2/1 every time, your ROI for that period would be 135.71% 

Anytime Scorer: Romelu Lukaku is 2/1 (3.0) with Skybet, BetVictor, Ladbrokes, Coral, William Hill, Betway.
