Football Betting Tips

Blackpool have scored in their last nine League One games, while they’ve netted 23 goals across their 14 games at Bloomfield Road. However, only two sides in the third tier have conceded more goals than Blackpool’s 39. Opponents Stockport have found the net in 10 of their 13 away games this term, but all of the visitors’ away clean sheets have come against teams in the relegation zone.

Barcelona haven’t kept a clean sheet in their seven Champions League games this term. The Catalans have conceded at home to Olympiakos and Eintracht Frankfurt, and they host a Copenhagen side who are pushing to make the top 24 after winning 3-2 against Villarreal last time out. 

Feyenoord have conceded 13 times across their seven League Phase games, while they were beaten 4-3 at FCSB in their last European trip. Betis have scored twice in all three of their home games in the Europa League this term, but the visitors need a win to avoid elimination. 

BTTS has landed in 10 of 14 Genoa games since Patrick Viera was sacked, and they head to a Lazio side who have scored 13 times in their six home clashes with sides below them.

Wolves have conceded the second-highest number of goals at home, while Bournemouth have shipped the most goals away. BTTS has landed in the visitors’ last eight games, while Wolves can threaten after an upturn in performances under Rob Edwards.

Rangers return from a visit to Portugal aiming to continue some free-scoring form in the Premiership, but they visits a Hibs side that averages two goals per game at home. 

Real Madrid games at the Bernabeu often deliver entertainment, and this matchup sets up well for goals. Carlo Ancelotti’s side have scored in eight of their last nine league games and have won their last three La Liga home matches. Rayo Vallecano arrive out of form, with just one win in ten league games and four defeats in their last five away. Four of Rayo’s 11 away matches have produced four or more goals, which strengthens the case for over 3.5.

Celtic matches at Parkhead have been delivering goals, and this looks another strong candidate. Over 3.5 goals has landed in six of Celtic’s 11 home games in the Scottish Premiership this season, while five of their last seven league matches overall have featured at least four goals. Celtic’s recent 2-2 draw with Hearts continued that trend, and with Falkirk also in decent form, this has the feel of an open, attacking contest.

Borussia Dortmund games are delivering goals on a regular basis and that trend should continue against Heidenheim. Dortmund have scored in 19 Bundesliga matches this season, more than any other side, and their last four league games have all cleared the over 2.5 goals line. Heidenheim’s defensive record points the same way, having conceded a league-high 42 goals and failed to keep a clean sheet in nine straight away games. With Dortmund in winning form and Heidenheim leaking goals, another open contest looks likely.

Tondela have lost six of their last seven league games, and they were beaten 3-0 in the first meeting between these two sides. Benfica’s midweek thriller followed a run of scoring nine times in their last three league games, so back a few goals in this contest.

Rangers return from a visit to Portugal aiming to continue some free-scoring form in the Premiership, but they visits a Hibs side that averages two goals per game at home.

BTTS has landed in Andorra’s last fur games, and the visitors have been a real threat on their travels this season. Castellon have put together a fine winning run at home to sit second, but the visitors have scored and conceded in all of their visits to sides in the top half.

Club Brugge have seen BTTS land in six straight games, and they’ve beaten Zulte-Waregem 4-3 and Genk 5-3 across their last three matches. They take that fine scoring record to the league leaders in a key clash at the top, and both sides are capable of getting on the scoresheet.

Go Ahead Eagles have seen both teams score in seven of their last eight games, and they head into this clash having scored in all but two of their trips. Volendam have conceded 35 goals in 20 matches, but they’ve only failed to score once at home.

James: Villa have won 12 of their last 13 at Villa Park in all competitions, and they should be too strong for Brentford, who have picked up just nine points on their travels.

Jack: Endrick scored a hat-trick in last Sunday’s 5-2 win at Metz to take his tally to four goals in three appearances. The visitors aren’t in great form and the talented Brazilian can capitalise. 

Alex: Auxerre have the worst away record in the top flight. They have earned only two points from a possible 27 on the road. Toulouse have won four of their last five league fixtures and look good value to take the spoils on Sunday.

Enda: Under-fire boss Thomas Frank has overseen just two home league wins in 11 attempts. City should likely prove too strong and pick up their third straight win at this ground. However, Spurs have found the net in 10 straight home games in all competitions while both teams have scored in nine of Tottenham’s last 13 Premier League assignments.

Gareth: Sociedad are unbeaten in five and have won their last three, while Bilbao are going through a miserable spell of just one win in their last 11 across all competitions.

Atalanta are in strong all-round form and look well placed to pick up another away win at Como. Gian Piero Gasperini’s side come into this off the back of a dominant 4-0 win over Parma and have now scored in ten of their last 11 Serie A matches. They have also tightened up defensively, keeping five clean sheets in their last seven league games. Add in six wins from their last eight away trips, and Atalanta look the more reliable option.

Celtic matches at Parkhead have been delivering goals, and this looks another strong candidate. Over 3.5 goals has landed in six of Celtic’s 11 home games in the Scottish Premiership this season, while five of their last seven league matches overall have featured at least four goals. Celtic’s recent 2-2 draw with Hearts continued that trend, and with Falkirk also in decent form, this has the feel of an open, attacking contest.

Toulouse are well placed to extend Auxerre’s miserable run, with the hosts nine places and 17 points better off in Ligue 1.

Auxerre are winless in nine away games and have lost eight of their last ten on the road.

Nottingham Forest have won their last two games by an aggregate scoreline of 6-0 and will be looking to build on this momentum against Crystal Palace, who are winless in 11 matches and have lost four of their last five away games.

Tottenham have won just one of their last ten home league games and City can build on victories over Wolves and Galatasaray to come out on top of a game that features two or more goals.

Morgan Rogers has been one of Aston Villa’s standout players this season and he found the net again in midweek. He has six goals and two assists in his last 11 appearances and has scored twice in four Premier League meetings with Brentford.

Bryan Mbeumo has been the star of the show for Manchester United since returning from the Africa Cup of Nations, scoring in wins over Manchester City and Arsenal. He has four career goals against Fulham and can continue his purple patch on Sunday.

While Erling Haaland is back among the goals, Rayan Cherki has found his scoring touch with three goals in his last five games and can celebrate a successful strike.

Mikel Oyarzabal scored twice for Sociedad in the win over Celta Vigo last time out and was also on target in the win over Barcelona. He can extend his scoring streak to three games in Bilbao.

Juve are in fine form with eight wins in their last 11 games and they should be able to claim the spoils at Parma, who have lost three of their last five at home. Parma have the worst attack in the division and have failed to score in three successive games.

Strasbourg are on an eight-game unbeaten run across all competitions and they can extend that with at least a point against PSG. Le Racing held the Parisians to a 3-3 draw in the reverse fixture and could be facing the league leaders at the right time, as PSG have failed to win four of their last six games and had a midweek European fixture.

Sociedad have hit some form with three successive La Liga wins, while they are on a seven-game unbeaten run across all competitions. La Real are facing a Bilbao side who were dumped out of the Champions League on Wednesday and have managed just one win in normal time in their last 11 across all competitions, so the visitors look capable of securing maximum points in the Basque derby.

PSG score on average over two goals per-game and Strasbourg have an impressive strike rate themselves as they average 1.7 goals per-game in this competition.

A Sociedad win is expected but Bilbao should be able to get on the scoresheet. The visitors have gone nine games without a shut-out and both teams have scored in Bilbao’s last five, so a 2-1 win for the visitors seems a reasonable score prediction.

Mikel Oyarzabal scored twice for Sociedad in the win over Celta Vigo last time out and was also on target in the win over Barcelona. He can extend his scoring streak to three games in Bilbao.

Hull have lifted themselves to within sight of the Championship’s automatic promotion positions, and they can take a step closer with a fifth successive win against a managerless Watford outfit.The Hornets parted ways with Javia Gracia for the second time after their weekend defeat to Swansea left them winless in five, and the Tigers look primed to roar to victory on Tuesday.

Arsenal won a five-goal thriller in the first leg of the EFL Cup semi-final, and another high-scoring affair is expected at the Emirates on Tuesday.Four or more goals have been scored in eight of the Gunners’ last ten fixtures and Chelsea have scored 19 goals in seven games since Liam Rosenior took charge, with five of these producing four or more goals.

Salford City’s 2-0 win at Tranmere on Saturday lifted them into the top three in the League Two table, and The Ammies can consolidate their promotion position with a fifth successive win on their travels.Accrington Stanley have admittedly looked a solid side of late, but they have lost to Salford’s fellow promotion hopefuls Bromley and MK Dons in their last five home matches and the quality of the visitors could shine through on Thursday.

Only Bayern Munich and Hoffenheim have scored more Bundesliga goals than Eintracht Frankfurt this season, but that comes at the cost of the worst defensive record in the division and their high-scoring ways should treat neutrals again on Friday.Both teams have scored in seven of their last eight games, for 13 goals scored and 21 conceded, while there have been goals at both ends in four of Union Berlin’s last five. Expect fireworks in Berlin.

Serie A’s bottom two get gameweek 24 underway in Italy, and underdogs Pisa could avoid dropping to the foot of the table against a Verona side that have taken just two points from the last 24 available.Pisa may be struggling for victories, but they have played out a league-high 11 stalemates, and they have only lost two of their last eight away days.

After starting the season with a long winless run at home, Celta Vigo have found their form at Estadio de Balaidos and look good value to score multiple goals for the fourth successive home game against Osasuna.The visitors sit ninth in the table, but only three La Liga teams have a worse away record than Los Rojillos, and they have conceded twice or more in four of their last seven away days.

Promotion-chasing Stockport County can pick up another three points on Saturday as they lock horns with a struggling Leyton Orient side that have lost three games on the spin.The Hatters are unbeaten in six matches and are on the hunt for a sixth successive home win, which they should achieve against an Orient outfit that have lost their last six away games by an aggregate scoreline of 16-3.

Lecce’s battle against Serie A relegation took another blow on Sunday as their winless run was extended to eight games, and little is expected of the league’s lowest scorers when they host Udinese.The Salentini have lost six of these eight winless matches and visitors Udinese have won their last two away assignments against Torino and Verona, while they have won their last four meetings with the struggling hosts.

Bayern Munich remain one of the most devastating attacking outfits in world football, and they can add another few goals to their burgeoning tally against the Bundesliga’s second-highest scorers.Die Bayern have notched an incredible 74 goals this season and have averaged four goals per game at the Allianz Arena. Hoffenheim shipped four to the Bavarian side in the reverse fixture and have conceded 18 goals in their last five meetings with the league leaders.

Liverpool look like the best value pick, with the Reds putting their struggles behind them with an eight-game unbeaten run. The Reds have the fourth-best Expected Goals record across the first six Champions League gameweeks, while they’ve recorded back-to-back 1-0 wins over Real Madrid and Inter Milan in Europe. Arne Slot’s side have a kind double-header in January, leaving them primed for a top-eight finish. With the Premier League coasting towards a fifth Champions League berth, the Reds should be in a good position to focus on European success in the spring.

Spain have some incredibly talented individuals, Lamine Yamal being the prime example, but are strong in all areas and don’t have any particular weaknesses. They won Euro 2024 with relative ease and they should be too good for their continental rivals at the World Cup. They also look a level above South American heavyweights Argentina and Brazil, suggesting they will be the team to beat at the World Cup this summer.
