NOTHING better than a full midweek French Ligue 2 card and yet again I feel the bookies are being more than generous with their Total Goals line set extremely low.
There are 9 games tonight and like Fridays night's winning French goals total you only need a few games to be high scoring to have a chance (Niort 4-4 Paris a prime example).
Talking about goals, Lommel Reserves delivered us another terrific set of winners yesterday as they crashed 4-2 at Union Saints. 103 goals in 18 games now I make it Lommel. Keep an eye out for them
As well as Total Goals, I'll be on the usual first half goals and 1.5 match goals specials at huge odds.
French Ligue Total Goals – 9 matches (8.05pm)
As you'll know I'm a huge fan of the Total Goals market and although Sky Bet offer it every day, it's all about getting the right fixtures and a fair target and tonight meets both those criteria.
Top side Lorient host fourth-bottom Le Mans, a side with the worst defensive record in the league against a side with the best attack in the league. The league leaders are in sensational form and a return to Ligue 1 is theirs to throw away.
They've won 8 of their last 9 with those matches seeing 5 /4/ 3/ 4/ 1/ 3 / 3/ 3/ 4/ goals scored with 22 of the 30 being claimed by them.
Third-top Ajaccio are at basement side Paris who just shipped 4 goals at struggling Niort and these two games alone could set us well on out way to beating the Sky Bet Total Goals line.
Typically, with 9 matches being played, you'd expect the goal line to be set at around 26+ or 27+ for around 5/6 but they always price up Ligue 2 really low, so instead of it being 26+ / 27+ they are offering us 20+ at 4/5 which I think is worth snapping up.
That's only 2.2 goals per game needed and with 9 games, you can almost certainly be sure at least two or three of them will see 3+ and 4+goals.
It's an incredibly generous goal line for 9 matches and should be taken on, especially given some of the fixtures. There will likely be a couple of low scorers but that's fine with other matches picking up the slack.
Recommended Bets:
- 20+ goals to be scored
- 4/5 (Skybet) (NAP)
- 22+ goals to be scored
- 13/8 (Skybet)
As always I'll be on over 0.5 first-half goals in all 9 matches and that pays 50/1 (could be more elsewhere) and over 1.5 goals in all 9 matches pays a massive 33/1. I'm also going to take 28+ goals at 16/1 for small stake.

Hi Greg. How do u bet on 20+goals?
Skybet – specials – competition – French Ligue 2
Over 1.5 goals in each game paying just over 30/1 on the pools.com
Cheers Greg!
I got over 0.5 first half goals @ 63/1
and over 1.5 total match goals @ 30/1 all with William Hill.
I’m also doing over 0.5 second half goals at 17/1.
Thanks mate
Your podcast with Selectabet is top quality stuff, absolutely amazing! I wish you could do an extra one for whenever there are a lot of midweek games.
Thanks For the kind words
We do a special edition when the champions league is on but not enough matches this midweek.
A daily one is something we are looking at
GOAL IN BOTH HALVES IN FRENCH 2ND 900/1 ?. FREE £5 . WHY NOT RETURNS £4500
Why not indeed mate ????
Yeah i do that every week, gotta come in sometime lol
Amy thoughts on Scots reserve he at 2 Greg asked it with lmel last nite
Thanks mate –
Couldn’t get team news on Hearts ( United weak)
But I have read Dunfermline playing an experienced side
That came out all wrong sum reason smashed it with lommel
Thanks Greg
Gregg profited from your French League 2 goals on numerous occasions. I reckon its been 3/4 years now I’ve been doing it so plenty of profit from it. Hoping you can give me some info. Have you ever known over 0.5 fhgls and over 1.5mgls come in on the same night? I can only recall one or the other but may be wrong. Has over 0.5 fhgls or over 1.5 mgls come in when 9 fixtures on the card or indeed the full 10. Again I can only recall it coming in when the usual 8 fixtures take place. Hope I’m wrong.
Cheers sorry for mithering
I think we landed 9 games over 0.5 first half before Christmas and I can only remember both first half and 1.5 coming at the same time , a good few close calls
Cheers Gregg I didn’t think both had landed too many times on the same fixtures a bit of an odd one considering the amount of times the first half goals have landed you’d have thought it had occurred a fair few times.
Thanks for replying
Chill out newts
???? just asking a legit question.
Hi all.
I have found i can get better odds using the sports terminal inside the bookies, rather than using online sportsbook for these long goals accas.
Got 63/1 on over0.5 fhg
And 1166/1 on Goal in both halves.
Cheers greg
Thanks for the head up mate ??
Just 9 goals in the France Division 2, 1st half, 4 matches being 0-0, lets hope for goals in the 2nd half, fingers crossed.
Well done on your NAP Greg :-)
22+ goals to be scored, landed as well.
A profitable night Greg, many thanks.
All over this Greg. I had £30 on 26+ goals. Gutted I didn’t take the 16/1 offer for 27 but profit is profit at the end of the day. Great tipping!!!
Greg, jumped on with you for first time – not a bad choice. Covered 20, 22, 24 and 26 goals. Not a bad night’s betting.
Superb stuff, onwards and upwards.
What about goals in France ligue 1
