Goal Rush Saturday

A poor 1-3 weekend last time out but this weekend we have a double bubble with both a Saturday and Sunday column as we look to hit back. So far this campaign our results are as below:


Season long record
Over 0.5 goals 104-1
Over 1.5 goals 93-15
Over 2.5 goals 64-44
Over 3.5 goals 37-71
Yes on BTTS 64-44
Home wins 52 Draws 20 Away wins 36

All three games this Saturday are in English Division One with 3pm kick offs and this league averages 2.68 goals per game.


Oldham v Swindon @ Evens
Oldham are deep in the relegation mire and the trends suggest that they will need to score at least two goals here to have any chance of gaining three points. They did win 2-1 in Swindon back in October when the sides met for the first time this season and both of last seasons games also saw Yes on BTTS and over 2.5 goals bet cash. The teams' combined twenty four games in this spot (bottom third v mid third placed teams) have seen a total of eighty one goals. Give me the overs!


Southend v Chesterfield @ 19/20
Eight placed and promotion hunting Southend host a Chesterfield side who are nervously looking over their shoulder at the relegation places. Chesterfield won the first meeting of the sides 3-0 earlier this season and this fixture has been littered with goals over the past few years. Over 2.5 goals has hit 7-1 since October 2010 and despite their lowly league position Chesterfield have only failed to score in three of thirteen matches against sides in the top third. I will trust the Spireites to find the net at least once in this game and help us cash on the over 2.5 goal line.


Wigan v Peterborough @ 4/5 
Championship chasers Wigan host a Peterborough side who have lost five on the bounce in league action. The Latics won 3-2 away at London Road back in October when the sides met for the first time this season and we look set for more goals here. The teams' combined twenty five games in this spot (top third versus mid third placed sides) have seen a total of eighty one goals. In fact Peterborough's seventeen away matches this season have seen fifty six total goals and nothing tells me that this game will be any different. Hit this over folks at what looks a very good price!


I welcome feedback from you all. Do you want more analysis on the games or would you in fact just like the games with no write up? Unlike my ex girlfriend I am eager and willing to please so just let me know.

Be lucky, all the best and I shall be back Sunday morning with two games from somewhere across Europe of destinations still to be disclosed.........
