The betting weekend starts here as Desmond brings us his best goals bets from across the UK for Saturday’s action, including a Goals Accumulator.
To Score 2+ Goals Tips
Guys, two teams that I like the look of to score 2+ goals on Saturday are Hearts and Dundee United.
For the first half of a Scottish Premiership double, I’m going with Hearts to score two or more goals in their home game with Livingston. Hearts have scored 2+ goals in 14 of their 19 Scottish Premiership matches this season, including each of their last four. They will be up against a Livingston side that has conceded two or more goals in 13 of their 19 Scottish Premiership games this season.
Next up, it’s Dundee United to score 2+ goals in their derby match with Dundee on Saturday afternoon. Dundee United are unbeaten in 5 matches, scoring two goals in recent home games with both Celtic and Rangers. They are taking on a Dundee side that has conceded two or more goals in five of their last seven league games away from home.
Going for the usual 3 points double that pays 6/4 with bet365.
Both Teams to Score Double
Other goal bets that I like the look of on Saturday include a 6/4 Both Teams to Score double of Elgin vs East Kilbride and Stranraer vs Edinburgh City.
- Elgin have been BTTS in five of their nine Scottish League Two matches this season, and both teams have scored in six of East Kilbride’s nine league games away from home.
- Both teams have scored in seven of Stranraer’s nine league games at home this season, BTTS has landed in 16 of Edinburgh City’s 18 Scottish League Two matches this season.
Over 2.5 Goals Tips
An over 2.5 goals treble of Altrincham, Burnley and Montrose, 1 point at 4/1.
- There have been over 2.5 goals in 17 of Altrincham’s 25 English National League matches this season, and likewise Morecambe have been overs in 17 of their 25 league games this season.
- Brighton have seen over 2.5 goals in six of their nine Premier League home games this season, Burnley have been overs in eight of their nine league matches away from home so far.
- Over 2.5 goals has landed in each of Cove Rangers’ last two league games, Montrose have been overs in 12 of their 19 Scottish League One matches this season.
A roll-up of all seven pays 32/1 for 0.5 pts and a roll-up of all seven being overs pays 45/1 for 0.5 pts.
Good luck with your bets on Saturday folks.
Desmond.
