Welcome to your Across the Leagues Weekend Stats Review...
Another good week of football ahead including the Champions League...
But first we need to take care of our Monday business – let’s take a look at the key weekend results, and some of the latest stats & trends showing on our website...
- Full tables displaying the top-ranked teams and bets in each division are on the League Stats pages on our site
8 in a row for Watford...
The Total Corners stats dominated my research last week – it’s a good market for Under/ Over bets and this season’s stats are showing plenty of strong trends...
Last week I flagged up six games with highly-rated match-ups. Of those six, the four Under 10.5 Corners trends all continued on Saturday.
That included West Ham keeping up their 100% home record for Under 10.5 Corners bets (7 out of 7 home games now). In fact, there were more goals than corners in that game, with Arsenal beating West Ham 5-1 – and a Total Corners tally of just 5.
And also in the Premier League, Watford continued their eye-catching run of corners results...
West Brom v Watford – Under 10.5 Corners made the cut for one of my three weekend Picks, and that one came in with a total of just 7 corner kicks (with West Brom winning the game 3-1).
That bet has now paid out in each of Watford’s last 8 league games, and keeps them top of our Premier League – Under 10.5 Corners standings (see below).
Leeds Utd v Aston Villa was my other corners Pick, but the 9 corners in that one fell 2 short of the total needed to land Over 10.5 Corners.
My weekend ‘Eye-catcher’ selection delivered in that game though, with Leeds’ top scorer Chris Wood scoring the second goal in a 2-0 win to land standout Anytime Scorer odds of 2/1 (3.00).
Wood now has 10 Anytime Scorer payouts from 19 appearances – more than any other player in the Championship.
It was a profitable weekend overall for my Picks with Stevenage v Doncaster living up to the billing I gave it as the best Goals match-up of the entire English fixture list. It ended 4-3 to Doncaster, with Over 2.5 Goals settled before half time.
Over 2.5 Goals bets have now paid out in 10 of Doncaster’s last 11 games – putting them top of our League Two standings for that market.
- For the season overall, my Picks are showing a 19% ROI to level stakes
