Weekend Stats Picks…
It’s FA Cup quarter final weekend, which means a slightly reduced Premier League schedule. It’s pretty much business as usual in the Football League and Scottish Premiership though…
There are some strong trends across a variety of areas – see below for the top stats.
As introduced this month, your new-look Weekend Stats Picks email is designed to draw as many standout stats & highly-rated bet opportunities as possible from the wealth of data on your members-only Across the Leagues website.
I know that many of you enjoy sourcing your own bet selections from the stats and Head-to-Head match-ups on the site. But if you don’t have the time or inclination to do that, then that’s where your weekly member email comes in…
Each week I’ll be using this email to deliver you a summary of the top stats from our site, in relation to the upcoming games. Presented in an array of easy-to-follow categories. We’ll be monitoring the performance of all the picks listed, and recording the results.
The aim is to provide you with a ‘stats sheet’ that highlights the strongest stats on our site, along with the best odds and suggested bet combinations, too.
FORM TEAM
With no wins in their last 6 games and 14th in the League Two table, Oldham and Paul Scholes parted ways yesterday. The Latics have a tough task at Home v the in-form side in the division this weekend…
- Tranmere Rovers are in the playoff places and have won 5 in a row. Including a 4-1 win on Tuesday night, and a 1-0 victory at Exeter on their last road trip
Tranmere to beat Oldham is 2/1 (3.00) with Bet365 and in general.
GOALS MATCH-UPS
The Total Goals Under/ Over 2.5 and Both Teams to Score markets have some of the most reliable trends of all the stats. These markets are widely available for all games in every division.
We had a winning Double on the Goals stats midweek (Macclesfield v Exeter was postponed, so void from the Treble).
Standout match-ups this weekend:
- Burnley v Leicester – Both Teams to Score has paid out in 4 of Burnley’s last 5 Home games, and in 4 of Leicester’s last 5 Away. Overall, both teams have scored & conceded in 6 of Burnley’s last 7 in the Premier League, and in 8 of Leicester’s last 9. Both Teams to Score – Yes is available at 4/5 (1.80) and 3/4 (1.75)
- Preston v Birmingham – Both Teams to Score has landed in 78% of Preston’s Home games in the Championship (14 out of 18) – 3 out of 5 recently. There have been goals at both ends in 4 of Birmingham’s last 5 Away games, and the Blues have kept just one Clean Sheet in their last 10 games overall. Both Teams to Score – Yes is available at 17/20 (1.85) and 5/6 (1.83)
- Rotherham v Norwich – Both Teams to Score has paid out in each of Rotherham’s last 5 Home games – and in 72% at Home for the season overall in the Championship (13 out of 18 games). Norwich match up well with goals at both ends in 4 of their last 5 on the road, and in 8 of their last 11 overall. Both Teams to Score – Yes is available at 8/11 (1.73) and 7/10 (1.70)
The advice here is a Treble. All 3 to win pays 9/2+ (5.50+) with William Hill, Bet365. Betway, Ladbrokes, Coral, Betfred, Sportingbet.
WINNING STREAK
Every week we’ll be monitoring the stats & trends and taking note of any particularly eye-catching winning streaks.
This week the run comes in the Premier League game…
- Liverpool have covered a -2 Corner Handicap – winning 3+ corners more than opponents – in 9 consecutive league games
Fulham v Liverpool is on Sky Sports on Sunday afternoon (2.15pm).
