SlipsTips shares a selection ahead of San Jose Earthquakes' encounter with Orlando City in MLS on Thursday.
San Jose Earthquakes vs Orlando City (Thursday, 03:30)
San Jose Earthquakes and Orlando City will square off at Stanford Stadium in MLS on Thursday.
The hosts will be looking to make it back-to-back wins after signing off for the World Cup break with a 3-1 victory over Portland Timbers.
As for Orlando City, they have been left stewing for the best part of two months after suffering a heavy 6-2 defeat against Cincinnati last time out.
With San Jose sitting second in the Western Conference and Orlando languishing towards the foot of the Eastern Conference, it is no surprise to see the hosts priced up as 4/9 favourites with bet365.
However, I have identified an alternative angle of attack in the anytime goalscorer market that looks to offer plenty of value.
The player I am backing to get on the scoresheet is Preston Judd at 20/21 with bet365.
The San Jose forward has enjoyed a really strong start to the MLS season, underlined by the fact that he has already racked up 11 goals across his 15 appearances so far.
Upon closer inspection, though, it can be seen that eight of those 11 strikes have arrived across his last seven appearances, including a brace against Portland Timbers last time out.
Now set to come up against an Orlando City side that have been leaking goals at an alarming rate all season, Judd looks well-placed to add to his tally.
Across both the Eastern and Western Conferences of MLS, no team has conceded more goals than the Lions this season, with 44 shipped in total.
A deeper dig shows that a whopping 31 of the 44 goals Orlando have conceded have come away from home.
With all things considered, Judd represents excellent value to get on the scoresheet at any time during this contest at 20/21 with bet365.
