Saturday's BTTS acca
Hoffenheim vs Bayer Leverkusen - 2/5
Blackburn v Bristol City - 8/11
Hoffenheim vs Bayer Leverkusen (1430 BST)
Let’s start with a quick dip into the Bundesliga with two teams who both have a 100% record of BTTS in the league this season.
Granted they’ve only played two league games each, but all of those games have been goal fests. Hoffenheim have scored four and let in five, while Leverkusen have netted five and shipped five.
To add further cement into this mix, both teams to score has landed in five of their last six encounters, with over 2.5 goals a winning bet in all of those matches too.
Crystal Palace vs Leicester (1500 BST)
Both teams to score has landed in five of the last six encounters between these two sides.
Crystal Palace have scored in every game this season, apart from against West Ham where they were guilty of missing some sitters.
Palace boss Oliver Glasner has also brought in Eddie Nketiah to boost his striking options, so he’ll be champing at the bit to show Arsenal where they went wrong.
Leicester are also in the goals, they’ve scored in all four games this season, including the 4-0 pumping of Tranmere in the Carabao Cup.
Blackburn v Bristol City (1500 BST)
BTTS has landed in all six Blackburn games this season, even letting League One Stockport grab one in Rovers’ six-goal cup thrashing back in August.
Bristol City failed to find the net in their last outing against Derby, but BTTS has landed in their other three league games. They missed three big chances against the Rams so were knocking on the door.
Blackpool vs Exeter (1500 BST)
Blackpool have seen BTTS in three of their four league games this season, and have already shipped 11 goals this campaign while sticking away seven.
Exeter are a lot more conservative with only two of their four matches successfully scooping BTTS, however they’ve yet to draw a blank in front of goal this season and have only kept two clean sheets in six matches, across all competitions.
Dagenham and Redbridge vs Gateshead (Sat 1730 BST)
Two National League teams in the shadow of Premier League big boys (West Ham and Newcastle if your geography is bad).
Gateshead have landed BTTS in five of their seven league matches this season, with Dagenham five from eight.
Gateshead are the only unbeaten team left in the National League, but still have a nasty habit of blotting their copybook by usually letting in one goal.
Bournemouth vs Chelsea (Sat 2000 BST)
Ignoring the dire 1-0 cup defeat against West Ham, Bournemouth have scored in all three Premier League outings this season. Four of the five goals coming in the last ten minutes, so don’t be cashing out too early.
Chelsea are like a drunken uncle at a wedding. You’ve got no idea what is going to happen next, but they will create plenty of havoc.
The Blues have scored in four of their five games, across all competitions, this season and even in the 2-0 defeat to Manchester City their xG was better than the champions and they missed a big chance.
