All Five Results as an Accumulator | 11.03/1 |
- Norwich City vs Aston Villa: Yes – Norwich’s staggering injury list continues to lengthen. That’s ten first-team options they are now without, and that is impacting their efforts at both ends of the pitch. However, a first return to Carrow Road since defeating Manchester City should lift their spirits. Aston Villa are creating plenty of good goalscoring opportunities at the moment, but their inability to defend (one clean sheet in four, five conceded in last 180 minutes) cannot be overlooked.
- Arsenal vs Bournemouth: Yes – Arsenal performed a bit better defensively at Old Trafford last time out, but they are still fragile and any side featuring David Luiz has the ability to concede goals at will. A midweek European game does not shake the feeling that BTTS is a given here. Bournemouth have seen both teams score in all seven of their Premier League outings thus far, with the Cherries blasting eight in their last themselves.
- Southampton vs Chelsea: Yes – Despite keeping a clean sheet last time out against a Brighton side lacking adventure, Chelsea aren’t particularly sound defensively. They have already shipped 13 goals, with Rudiger, Emerson, Zouma and perhaps even Kante missing here. Southampton play an enterprising brand of football and have scored in each of their last six games, with BTTS hitting the spot in four of those.
- Bolton Wanderers vs Blackpool: No – It’s answers on a postcard time. The bookies are offering odds-on that BTTS lands in this game, despite the fact that Bolton have scored just twice all season! Their defending is improving too, while Blackpool’s once-prolific attack is floundering with just four goals scored in as many games.
- Wycombe Wanderers vs Peterborough: Yes – It’s likely that Peterborough will feature liberally in this column from now until the end of the season, and why not? In Eisa, Toney and Maddison they boast not one but three goal machines – nobody has netted more in League One. Defending has been an issue of late though (six conceded in three starts), and hosts Wycombe have bludgeoned 14 goals in six games at Adams Park this term.
