Back our 114/1 Goals Galore Long Haul acca here
Monday – Cabo Verde vs Egypt
The pressure is on Egypt ahead of their final group game, as they’ve dropped points in their first two games at the Africa Cup of Nations. Consecutive 2-2 draws have put them in a tough spot, especially going into a clash with the side who top their group.
Cabo Verde have won two from two and they’ve scored five times across their victories. The good news for Egypt is the top side are through and they’ll likely rest some players here, although Egypt’s defensive record suggests they’ll still have problems. The Pharaohs have little option but to go for it, which should lead to goals.
Tip: Over 2.5 Goals
Tuesday – Mauritania vs Algeria
Mauritania will be hoping to push Algeria off the back of their 3-2 defeat to Angola. There’s little doubt that Mauritania are the group outsiders, having lost their last five matches at the Africa Cup of Nations.
Algeria are in a tough spot, having seen score draws in their opening two matches despite entering the tournament among the outright favourites. They’ve been fine going forward, but conceding penalties in both games so far suggests they’re ill-disciplined at the back.
With both sides looking too open, back goals in this contest.
Tip: Over 2.5 Goals
Wednesday – Mallorca vs Girona
La Liga leaders Girona head to struggling Mallorca on Wednesday, with odds-against on over 2.5 goals landing in this Copa del Rey encounter. That’s despite Girona thumping Sevilla 5-1 at the weekend.
When these two last met back in September, Girona ran out 5-3 victors. With both teams scoring in 11 of the visitors’ last 14 games, take the value on over 2.5 goals landing.
Tip: Over 2.5 Goals
Thursday – Atletico Madrid vs Sevilla
Another heavy defeat could be on the cards for Sevilla, as they head to an Atletico Madrid side who are in scoring form. The only hope for Sevilla – who sit 17th in La Liga – is that Atleti’s defensive standards have slipped too.
Diego Simone’s side have seen four goals or more in five of their last six games, but they’ve kept only one clean sheet in that run. Sevilla head into this one with each of their last four games seeing over 2.5 goals, including their previous two cup games, which also came on the road.
Tip: Over 2.5 Goals
Friday – Sheffield Wednesday vs Coventry
Coventry are expected to secure a spot in the FA Cup Fifth Round on Friday night, as they head to a Sheffield Wednesday side who sit second from bottom in the Championship.
The Sky Blues have won four straight games, including a 6-2 victory over Oxford in the last round of this competition. Coventry have seen both teams score in five successive matches, while the Owls have netted in their last seven at home. Everything points towards another high-scoring encounter.
Tip: Over 2.5 Goals
Saturday – Doncaster vs Stockport
Stockport head to a Doncaster side who sit 20th in League Two this weekend, with the league leaders hoping for another big away win. Stockport have yet to visit any of the bottom seven on the road, yet they have one of the best away records in the division.
Stockport’s 12 away games so far have seen a total of 39 goals scored, having kept only two clean sheets on their travels despite their strong record. This Doncaster side suffered a 5-0 loss to Morecambe and a 3-1 defeat to Bradford at home last month, so expect goals.
Tip: Over 2.5 Goals
Sunday – West Brom vs Wolves
Wolves are looking like a really effective attacking side under Gary O’Neil, as seen in their last FA Cup outing. They eliminated Brentford in extra time after drawing 2-2, with over 2.5 goals landing for the fourth time across their last five.
West Brom are another side who have stepped things up going forward and they’ve claimed successive 4-1 wins at home going into this tie. The Baggies are on a roll and they have little to fear in this derby clash, so it has the makings of an entertaining tie.
Tip: Over 2.5 Goals
