Weekend Stats Picks…
The Football League and Scottish Premiership started last weekend. The Premier League kicks off tonight, with the opening game Liverpool v Norwich on Sky Sports (8pm).
We also have our three new European leagues to look forward to in the next couple of weeks:
- Bundesliga starts Friday 16th August
- La Liga starts Saturday 17th August
- Serie A starts Sunday 25th August
A reminder of the plan…
As the first waves of games take place and the early form goes in the book, we’ll be stepping up our coverage with Stats Picks throughout the week, every week.
With over 80 games to look forward to most weekends, we’ll have plenty of opportunities to use the stats to our advantage.
We’re treading carefully in the opening few rounds of games. This weekend we have two games that make the cut for our first Goals multiple of the season…
GOALS MATCH-UPS
League One
Saturday 3pm
Rochdale v Doncaster Rovers – OVER 2.5 Goals
Rochdale were No.1 in our League One table for Over 2.5 Goals bets last season. Their two meetings with Doncaster saw plenty of goals, losing 5-0 away and 2-3 at home.
Doncaster ended last season with 2-3 and 2-2 score-lines on the road.
‘Dale started the new season with a 3-2 away win last weekend. We could see more of the same from them in 2019/20 in terms of high-goals results and payouts.
Over 2.5 Goals is 4/5+ (1.80+).
Oxford Utd v Peterborough Utd – Both Teams to Score – YES
Peterborough were ranked 4th in our League One standings for Both Teams to Score bets last season.
These two clubs have been in the same division as each other for the last three seasons, and in that time 5 of their 6 meetings have seen goals at both ends.
Including the end of the last season, Both Teams to Score has paid out in 5 of Posh’s last 6 league games, and in 5 Oxford league games in a row. Peterborough started the new campaign with a 1-3 defeat last weekend. Oxford opened with a 1-1 draw.
Both Teams to Score is 4/6 (1.67).
- The Double on those two selections pays 2/1 (3.00) and that’s our Stats Pick for this weekend
Stats Picks Summary
