This Saturday isn’t the usual Super Saturday due to the lack of Premier League football but there’s still Nations League to be played alongside League One and two to keep the football fix fulfilled.
Peterborough travel to Crewe with intention to extend their 3 point lead at the top of League One and have plenty in their favour to support that challenge. Jonson Clarke-Harris has scored 6 league goals this season with 4 of those being in his last 5 starts. Peterborough have also scored 21 in their 11 league games which is an average of 1.90 goals a game, Crewe have scored a mere 0.80 a game and the recently promoted side do not look to have offensively adapted to the higher standard of football. Crewe have also lost their last 3 away fixtures with Peterborough winning 4 of their last 5, at just above even money- the Posh look a great bet.
League Two’s current second position side is Cambridge who have been on fire with 24 goals scored in their 11 matches, their strike force of Joe Ironside and Paul Mullin have scored 17 goals between them, the third most goals scored by a team in the league is 17 so that’s really an astounding feat. Today’s opposition are newly promoted Barrow, they’re currently in 19th and haven’t been as poor as the position would imply but they have lost 6 of their last 7 away games whilst Cambridge have won 5 of their last 7 at home- one of which was in the cup against League One leaders Peterborough. Cambridge should have enough today.
Oldham are lingering near the relegation zone in 20th position but looked to have turned a corner with 10 goals scored in their last 5 matches in which they’ve also won 4 of them. The opposition for today is Scunthorpe who’ve only played 8 games so far this season but have looked shocking in each of those. They’re 23rd just ahead of Southend who’ve had plenty of internal problems but Scunthorpe have also only scored 4 goals in those fixtures. Across their last 8 games, Scunthorpe have conceded 3 goals a game on average and they’ve also lost 10 of their last 12 away games. Oldham should dispatch of this struggling side.
The final leg of today’s four-fold accumulator is Luxembourg who’re away in Cyprus in the Nations League, they’re currently sitting top of Group 1 in League C and a win today would put them in a great position going into their last game at home to Azerbaijan. Cyprus have lost 8 of their last 9 in all competitions and haven’t scored in the group stage either. Danel Sinani has scored 3 in the group stage and scored 3 in last campaign’s Nations League too, he also scored 9 in the Europa League with Dudelange, he knows how to find the net and will be a threat for Cyprus’ vulnerable side.
The accumulator is priced at 20.82/1 with bet365 at the time of writing and looks a good bet for what looks like an average Saturday of football.
Enjoy.
