Sunday’s Football Bet of the Day sees me focus on the big match in Group G in the Scottish League Cup, and I’ve come up with a goals-based selection.
⚽️ Motherwell vs Partick Thistle
🏴 League Cup
⏰ Sunday 28 July, 15:00
The top two in Group G meet at Fir Park in the live game on Premier Sports on Sunday afternoon as Motherwell play host to Partick Thistle in what promises to be an entertaining encounter.
Motherwell head into the final round of fixtures top of Group G having amassed eight points from their opening three group-stage matches.
Stuart Kettlewell’s men began the campaign with a routine 3-0 victory at home to rock-bottom Edinburgh City and won 1-3 at Clyde last time out, but sandwiched in between that was a 1-1 draw at Montrose – with The Steelmen gaining an extra point thanks to their shootout win.
Partick Thistle made a bright start to their League Cup campaign, as they edged Montrose in a five-goal thriller at Firhill before thrashing Edinburgh City 0-6 away from home.
However, Kris Doolan’s men fell to a surprise 2-3 defeat at home to League Two side Clyde in midweek, meaning they head into the final round of group stage matches second in Group G, two points behind their hosts.
Bet of the Day
There have been a staggering 25 goals scored across both sides opening three League Cup matches this term, and another high-scorer looks likely here.
Over 2.5 Goals has paid out in five (83%) of those matches – and given Both Teams to Score has landed in 4/4 (100%) in matches excluding rock-bottom Edinburgh City – I’m happy to have a punt on there to be at least three strikes, with both sides getting on the scoresheet in North Lanarkshire on Sunday afternoon.
- Both Teams to Score & Over 2.5 Goals
- Pays 10/11 (Bet365)
