Get ready for a German double-header…
Week one of the Bundesliga coming back ended up a good one for us. With our dedicated German coverage culminating with a positive outcome from Monday night’s Bayer Leverkusen win at struggling Werder Bremen.
In our match preview and analysis, the stats led us to two ‘alternative’ markets where we could achieve higher prices than the odds-on quote for the Away Win.
Leverkusen’s commanding 4-1 victory landed odds of 2/1 for the -1 Match Handicap.
And the star man was their in-demand young forward, Kai Havertz. The 20-year-old German bagged a confident first-half brace, including the opening strike to land First Goalscorer odds of 5/1.
We’ll be targeting similar markets and prices in the weeks to come in Germany, no doubt.
Bremen, Leverkusen and Havertz all feature in our stats round-up today…
