BETVICTOR HURDLE

At a time in which sport is most valuable and top quality sport is even harder to come by, Ireland has managed to put things into place to be able to have the racing behind closed doors and we’re treated to the BetVictor Hurdle.

Mary Frances has opened as favourite after a win over 3M at Punchestown where the mare was under pressure turning into the bend but disposed of an on-the-bridle Blast of Koeman by 4 ½ lengths where this impressive mare found plenty for pressure. In December, Mary Frances ran at Clonmel and finished only 1 ½ lengths behind the Storyteller who since has finished a very close runner up in the Pertemps at Cheltenham. This mare had two runs between her runner-up and her win that were losses by a big margin to high quality, Benie Des Dieux and Stormy Ireland. Big chance.

Jetz is another horse that is highly tried against the best opposition and seeing this gelding drop into a lower grade really catches the eye. Coming off of the back of a 2nd to a very smart looking opposition in Charli Parcs who returned from a 469 day break, Jetz has a similar profile to Mary Frances in that he runs consistently against the top horses but if you look back to this month last year, he romped home in a race of this grade. Robbie Power takes the ride as he always does (20/27 of Jetz races) and if he’s able to return to that form, he’s a leading contender.

Brace Yourself is an unexposed gelding that’s only had 2 runs over hurdles in his career and was not at all disgraced in a grade 2 at Navan recently. The Meade trained horse is still very unexposed after only 2 starts over hurdles and looked to have a promising future when winning a maiden hurdle in November 2018 at Down Royal. There’s a real question mark over this horse but could he bring form from his maiden victory; then there’d be a squeak.

Moyhenna is yet another horse with plenty of classy previous form. The Denis Hogan trained runner won in very nice fashion at the Punchestown festival last May whilst chasing and prior to that she won by 25L at Limerick. Thus far, she’s been unsuccessful over hurdles with a trouncing at Navan and has since had a fall and most recently pulled up at Gowran Park. This is a significant drop if you look at the standard of the handicaps she’s been running in, but the addition of cheekpieces could aid her chance.

The favourite Mary Frances has a weight allowance due to her being a mare and looks to have a huge chance, but JETZ rates a decent value pick at 11/4. The Harrington trained horse, having his regular jockey on board, at a lower grade than usual after his recent runner-up, looks a nice pick. SKYBET are also offering money back if your horse finishes 2nd or 3rd (up to £10). A top 3 finish would be a minimum expectation for this gelding.

THE MACHINE

Today marks the 10th running of the Marsh’s Novices Chase (formerly the JLT) that Willie Mullins has won 3 of the last 5 of, all with favourites. The other 6 winners have only included 1 favourite and 1 horse that had a starting price in the double digits, Benefficient in 2013 for Tony Martin at 20/1.

Itchy Feet has opened as the favourite after sauntering to a grade 1 success where he defeated Midnight Shadow (re-opposing) with plenty in hand as he powered on at Sandown. Olly Murphy’s main chances for the festival are lead by the horse that won him his first ever G1 and after the unfortunate unseat of Brewin’upastorm in Tuesday’s Arkle, it leaves Itchy Feet to pick up the pieces to try and get him his first festival G1. The horse’s only run at Cheltenham in his career was at last year’s festival where he came 3rd in the Supreme behind Klassical Dream and Thomas Darby so we know he’s able at this course. This horse looks to have a good chance but isn’t an obvious pick whilst lurking around favouritism.

Samcro has yet to fulfil his expected potential when he switched from fences to hurdles. After the 8 wins he started his career off with, he fell at Punchestown in April 2018, went 3 races without a win and then made the switch over to chasing. After his chase debut in which he bolted up by 17 lengths he took on Fakir D’oudairies (2nd in the Arkle on Tuesday) and was travelling much the better before falling just before 2 out. He then took on Faugheen and lost by 10 lengths at Limerick but has since had wind surgery and could be seen in a new light.

Faugheen “the machine” is looking to make Cheltenham roar with a potential 12th grade 1 win and is coming into this race in form that’s not far off of his career peak. In last year’s Stayers Hurdle he finished 6L away from Paisley Park on good to soft which looks as if it’ll be today’s ground. His first race this season he won by 7L in an ordinary race and followed up with the convincing victory over Samcro. The most recent of Faugheen’s races has been a 1/2L win over Easy Game which was slightly more laboured but has merely continued the excellent form. If you then take into consideration Mullins’ recent record in this race, we could be looking at the leading contender for this year’s renewal.

Melon has acquitted himself very well over the years including his 2018 Champion Hurdle runner-up but hasn’t quite snapped into the chasing swing of things. He finished 3L behind previously mentioned Fakir D’oudiaires and recently didn’t even come close to competing with Notebook after a mistake. This Mullins entry looks to have his work cut out for him after a pretty sub standard season in comparison to some of today’s competitors. In contrast, some of Melon’s best form is at Cheltenham so it could possibly bring out a good performance.

Annie Mc was a big antepost price of 33/1 a month or so ago and has opened up at 14/1 this evening. Jonjo O’Neill’s mare has raced only against her own sex in her career and has never raced above a G4 but has shown bundles of improvement upon every win so it’s impossible to see where this horses’s limitations lie and can not be underestimated.

Other runners include Mister Fisher who won a grade 2 ahead of Al Dancer at Doncaster in January but that form hasn’t amounted to much with everyone in behind disappointing in their next races out. Reserve Tank  has been jumping poorly this season and has been turned over as an odds on favourite in 2 of his 3 starts but, similar to Melon, if he can bring some of his hurdle form from last season (4 wins, 2 G1’s) then he could stand a good chance.

Bapaume is the mount of Rachael Blackmore and this Mullins’ third choice looks set for a tough task based on the performances put up this year whilst chasing, he was a huge distance behind Notebook on the most recent start who failed to justify favouritism this week in the Arkle. Midnight Shadow was 3L behind and weakening behind Itchy Feet when he won his first G1 but was 2L infront of Deyrann De Carjacc who is currently second favourite for the Stayers Hurdle, this horse has a reasonable chance at a bigger price.

FAUGHEEN rates a premium selection for the Marsh and the 5/1 that’s being offered at the time of writing cannot be something to ignore, this could be the crowning glory for his career coming up the Cheltenham hill. SKYBET are once again offering money back on this race if your horse finishes 2nd, 3rd, 4th or 5th so it could be considered a risk free bet.

ENJOY.

SUPREME 6/1 POKE

The opening race of the Cheltenham festival is one of the most mouth-watering races of the whole 4 days with Asterion Forlonge leading the market and the top pick of the Willie Mullins trio, here’s a small assessment of some of the market principles.

Asterion Forlonge at the time of writing is heading the market as an 5/2 favourite which is easily justified after his 9 1/2L trouncing of Easywork at Leopardstown where he instantly drew away coming to the last and stayed on stoutly to record an impressive win. Paul Townend will be doing the steering and he’s got a 50% win rate from his last 10 rides in the last 14 days. In the gelding’s previous race he beat Pencilfulloflead by 10L who’s gone on to win convincingly since. The high chances and price of this horse seem accurate but the slight tendency to jump right over hurdles could be a small factor that could create a couple of minor problems.

Shishkin fell on hurdle debut in mid-December but has moulded into what seems a perfect “Cheltenham horse”, he won a G4 race by 11L with ease and followed up with a listed success at Huntingdon. Nicky Henderson (trainer) has said that this horse is his best chance of a winner at the festival this year and Shishkin does look a very nice type but hasn’t really raced in races to the calibre of some others he’ll be against. This one looks a bit too short for me but the way he’s stayed on in the last two races will suit the Cheltenham hill and Henderson’s had 32 runners in the last 20 years in this race and only had 1 winner so he’s left this novice a lot to do.

Abracadabras represents significant value based on form alone. The Gordon Elliott trained runner has had 4 races this season with 3 victories, the only loss being a 1 1/2L defeat at the hands of short price Ballymore favourite, Envoi Allen, who is also the only horse to have beaten her over hurdles. In his G3 win in November she brushed aside Latest Exhibition (5/1 for the Albert Bartlett), who has franked the form by beating Andy Dufresne in a G2 and winning a G1 too. The third in that race was Darver Star (10/1 for the Champion Hurdle) who also finished 1/2L behind very promising mare, Honeysuckle.  This horse is generally available at around 6/1 and it’s quite difficult to understand why; everything on paper is pointing to a huge run and a positive start to Gordon Elliot’s 2020 Cheltenham Festival.

Fiddlerontheroof is one of Colin Tizzard’s best chances for the festival and is a likeable type that’s progressed throughout the season, he finished 2L behind Albert Bartlett favourite Thyme Hill but he did finish 2nd to Edwardstone the race after. He’s already won a G1 and did it in decisive fashion but the second place Jeremy’s Flame was incredibly disappointing when favourite for a 24 runner race where it was not run to suit. There’s plenty of rain due for the first day which suits this gelding entirely, could be an outside shot at 13/2.

Captain Guinness has raced twice in his career and after his 7L debut success he took on Andy Dufresne in the Moscow Flyer and only lost out because of a slightly untidy jump at the last. The 16/1 price that’s mostly available is a fair price considering this gelding is completely unexposed and there’s no real guidelines as to whether he’ll be up for a race of this grade. Rachael Blackmore is on board today as she was in the previous race and in a bigger field, should help the horse settle a bit better. 16/1 is very reasonable.

Edwardstone is the last horse to touch on based on his form against the likes of Fiddlerontheroof and Harry Senior (9/1 for the Albert Bartlett), the Alan King trained gelding has been unfortunate to miss out in his last couple of races, getting pipped on the line by a stronger-staying Stolen Silver. Edwardstone beat Harry Senior by a length in December and the second placed horse has gone onto win a G2 comfortably and is expected to keep on improving. If Tom Cannon can drive this horse up the hill, there’s a good chance he can mix it with the market leaders.

ABRACADBRAS is the standout pick for this race and Skybet are also offering MONEY BACK IF YOU LOSE up to £10. At 6/1 and you can have your money back if it’s not to win, you simply have to make the most of it.

KOP AT THE TOP

Liverpool look to re-extend their lead at the top of the league to 22 points in a game in which everything is in their favour. Liverpool face West Ham at Anfield, if they were to avoid defeat it’d be their 45th game unbeaten and moves them 5 away from overtaking Arsenal’s seemingly unbeatable record.

In recent years West Ham have been terrorised by Liverpool’s two main men, Salah and Mane. In the last 5 fixtures in all competitions between the sides, the duo have scored 9 goals between themselves and this has been in years where the Reds haven’t been the top of the pile. They’ve played 13 games at home so far in this PL season and they’ve won every single one of them whilst scoring the most home goals in the league (2.69 goals per home game).

West Ham are at the complete other end of the stick, they’re currently 18th in the league, they’ve scored the second least away goals this season, averaging 0.77 a game and have also continuously struggled this campaign. Their away form from the last 12 games in all competitions does not inspire much hope, they’ve picked up 3 wins with one of them against Chelsea but they’ve struggled in-front of goal. In that last 10, 8 of them have seen only one of the teams score.

Liverpool have not lost at home since a 3-2 defeat against Crystal Palace in April 2017 and seem a certainty to continue that pattern; but will be without captain Jordan Henderson this evening who has been heavily tipped to be the player of the season, fortunately the depth of the squad shouldn’t see that create an issue.

The reds also average a significant 6.78 corners per home game which establishes their dominance for possession as well, they average 62% a game. West Ham noticeably also give away 7.08 corners per away game which only adds to the expected onslaught in that area.

Liverpool will extend their lead tonight but there’s a lack of value in from the gambling aspect although below is something hand-picked to take all the value away for the night.

Price is accurate as of 7:15PM 24/02/2020, gamble responsibly.

A CAGEY MONDAY

United vs Chelsea is always a feisty affair but not always one for plenty of goals. In the previous 7 fixtures between the sides at Stamford Bridge both teams have scored in only 2 of them.

Chelsea’s home form has left a lot to be desired this campaign with 18 points from a possible 36 with a weak 16 goals scored in those fixtures. The bulk of the Blues form in the PL is away from home, they’ve scored 63% of their goals away from the Bridge but were very unfortunate to not win against Arsenal in their recent 2-2 draw against the 10 men Gunners. Chelsea have not lost in the Premier League against United since late 2012 in a thrilling 3-2 defeat.

United have been nothing short of disappointing this year and their away form is a massive factor in what has been a season to forget. On the road after 12 matches they’ve accumulated 12 points and only managed to grab 1 clean sheet. With the recent injury to Marcus Rashford they’ve continued to struggle and especially in front of goal. Anthony Martial has scored half of his 8 PL goals this season on their travels and will be the man to look to.

Tammy Abraham is not involved with the Chelsea squad tonight after picking up a knock and not passing fitness tests, Christian Pulisic is also struggling for match fitness and is missing. Scott McTominay and Paul Pogba are still side-lined and continue to be huge misses for the United midfield.

Nemanja Matic starts against his former club, returning from suspension. The Serbian has been carded in 2 of his last 3 fixtures against Chelsea at the Bridge and has been getting progressively more sluggish in his mature years. Jorginho has also tallied up 9 yellow cards this season and is also one away from suspension, Chelsea’s next game is at home against their top 4 rivals, Tottenham.

Chelsea look to have the better form coming into the game but it’s only marginal. United seem poorly equipped without Rashford’s presence and will struggle in front of goal; a cagey Chelsea win seems the most likely outcome.

A bet builder will be provided below with some of the evening’s most valuable stats, bet accordingly.

A POMPEY PUMPING

Due to the first ever Premier League winter break there’s a lack of top tier English football this weekend but there’s still fixtures from the three other major English leagues.

Brentford have been a promising team for a few years but haven’t quite seemed to live up to expectation but they are currently on the rise up the Championship and sit 6 points away from top position, West Brom. Ollie Watkins since arriving from Exeter in 2017 has managed to reach double digits every season but this year is looking like his breakout year, he’s scored 19 goals in 30 games so far and is a real driving force behind this dangerous offensive side. Middlesbrough, today’s opponents, have had a very rocky season in which they’ve managed to win 2 of their 14 away games and have lacked any form of consistency. Brentford at 1/2 could even be considered generous.

Stoke have had a shocking season and are sitting just above the relegation zone but their performances do not reflect their league position correctly. The bet365 stadium, (formerly the Britannia), has been a tough place to go to and even teams that are having good seasons have still come away with defeat. Stoke’s rough year has lowered their usual home form but they’re still pulling results out which should be enough against a currently weak, Charlton. In the Addicks last 11 away games they’ve picked up 3 points and conceded 2 or more in 9 of those games. Stoke should have enough.

Coventry have only lost 3 games in League One this season, which is the second least losses out of all the top 4 English leagues with the least being Liverpool. They’re against Bolton today, a team that have had their fair share of problems this season but even now they’ve got their usual squad available, they’re still having issues picking up points, especially away from home. The Trotters have scored 5 goals away from home in 11 games and conceded 34, an average of 3.1 a game. Coventry should be winning if they’re expecting to continue contending with the title front runners.

Portsmouth have recently embarked on a exceptional run of form, they’ve won 8 of their last 8 in all competitions and have steadily risen back into the top 6 of League One where they should be. Tranmere have the second worst home form in the league and with Portsmouth on a drastic upward curve it’s going to be a tough game for a team that’ve claimed 5 points out of their last 30, scoring only 6 goals in the process. Portsmouth would be considered my best bet of the day, the price of 8/13 is great but the 7/4 for Portsmouth -1 handicap is a mortgage job.

Newport are not an exception in what seems a reoccurring theme in this accumulator, they’re a team with a brilliant home record against Cambridge, a team that has a lot of trouble on the road. Newport a couple of weeks ago picked up a 2-0 win against current league leaders, Swindon and have only lost 2 of their 15 home games this year. Cambridge on the other hand are currently 12 games without an away win and do not look like having a reversal of fortune.

Today’s accumulator prices up at just below 10/1 and could be a nice way to earn £55 off of only a fiver.

ON THE RISE

Liverpool are adding to their ridiculous run of form on a week by week basis and the 42nd game of their unbeaten run sees them take on a revamped Southampton side who have picked up 19 of their 31 points in their last 10 games. They only managed to get 12 points in the previous 14 fixtures.

A surprise hero has been former Liverpool player Danny Ings, who has scored 14 goals in the league this season which is more than any of the Liverpool players. He’s personally scored 45% of Southampton’s league goals this season and if the Saints are to stand any chance, he will need to be on top form this afternoon.

Liverpool are undoubtedly proving themselves to be one of the best teams in the world if not the best with their current 41 game unbeaten streak that’s 8 games away from breaching Arsenal’s 49 game unbeaten record. The form they’re bringing to every game is making it impossible to oppose from a neutral perspective and they also go in search of their 54th unbeaten home game in a row. If you can consider it a negative, Liverpool have not scored more than 2 goals in a game since the calendar year started. To counteract that minute issue, they’ve managed to sure up their defensive line and kept clean sheets in 6 of their last 8 games in all competitions.

Sadio Mane got injured in Liverpool’s 2-1 win over Wolves and is without doubt, a huge loss and he’s also a former Southampton player that would’ve been facing his former club. Southampton have recently loaned out right back Cedric Soares who has taken part in 16 games this season but has been replaced by a loanee youngster from Tottenham named Kyle Walker-Peters who is an interesting acquisition. The 22-year-old Englishman has played 562 minutes in his short PL career but has managed to get an assist every 110 minutes, very close to one assist a game.

Alex McCarthy has been excellent between the sticks for Southampton, he’s been the starting goalkeeper for 12 games or so now and averages 3.12 saves a game which is hugely relevant for the amount of shots he’s bound to face. Southampton collectively been fantastic to watch rise through the struggles in recent months, they had their 9-0 home loss to Leicester and since have seen a real reversal of fortune. The last four away games for the Saints have brought themselves 4 wins, 2 of which were against Chelsea and considering the previous result, it was a shock to see them beat Leicester.

Ralph Hasenhüttl has incredibly got Southampton up to 9th but taking points from this current Liverpool side seems an impossible ask. Liverpool could definitely be vulnerable to conceding but the offensive power should overwhelm a substandard defence.

A 7/1 bet builder is provided below, stake is not shown, gamble respective to personal preference, price accurate as of 07:42 1/2/2020.

WOLVES AT THE DOOR

In the last couple of seasons Wolves have made themselves very difficult to play against, especially for the top 6, they’ve consistently taken points from any team they oppose. Liverpool are in form we’ve never seen the likes of in the Premier League with the Reds breaking records for their points tally after 22 games; they’ve got 64 points out of a possible 65 and it’s difficult to see a reason why they’d slow down.

Wolves look fully equipped to have a chance of at least taking points from the seemingly invincible Liverpool, they played at Anfield in late December and left after a 1-0 defeat but in the second half they looked very dangerous and caused a real threat. Wolves’ intense second halves are not uncommon either, they were 2-0 down at half time to Southampton last Saturday and snatched a 3-2 win; the same happened against Man City in December. Liverpool aren’t known for conceding many goals but it’s an undeniable threat.

Liverpool’s Achilles heel was their defensive record, but they’ve bucked their ideas up and haven’t conceded in the PL since December 4th in a 5-2 win in the Merseyside Derby and haven’t conceded in all competitions since December 18th in the Club World Cup vs Monterrey. Joe Gomez’ return from injury was the first game in this astonishing defensive run and his consistency at the back has been fantastic and he’s surely in the running for Southgate’s Euro squad.

In the last two meetings between the sides (2-0 and 1-0 Liverpool wins), Mane has scored all the goals. Raul Jimenez has scored 10 goals in the PL this season and he also scored in their 2-1 cup win last January at Molineux in this fixture, he’s always dangerous but with Liverpool’s current defensive prowess it’s going to be a tough ask for the Mexican.

Romain Saiss has acquired 8 yellow cards this season in 20 matches and should be in for another tough defensive display with the likes of Mane, Salah and Firmino running at him. There’s no significant injury problems for either side tonight so we’ll see a feisty affair with both teams fielding full strength XI’s.

Liverpool should yet again do the business but do not rule out Wolves as they’re deadly when put under pressure.

Here’s a selection for tonight’s game involving previously mentioned stats and scorers. Price accurate as of 7:48PM 23/1/2020.

STAT SELECTIONS

A weekend with plenty of football and huge games is gasping for an accumulator to source the Saturday entertainment, the best value being in the lower English leagues.

Accrington to win against Southend

Accrington arrive into the game in 17th place sitting only 5 points above the relegation zone, but their opponents Southend are 23rd only 3 points ahead of point deducted Bolton. Southend have only managed to win 10 points out of a possible 75, conceding 65 goals- an average of 2.4 a game. Accrington, despite their league position have been quite dangerous of late, especially at home. They’ve won 4 of their last 5 which included thumping 4-1 and 7-1 wins over Portsmouth and Bolton. At an individual price of 8/13, it seems a solid selection.

Rotherham to win against Bristol Rovers

League One league leaders Rotherham have been in eye-catching goalscoring form recently with all of their last 7 games seeing the Millers score 2 or more goals and also scoring the most goals in League 1. Bristol Rovers have been doing quite the opposite, in their last 8 games in all competitions they’ve failed to score in 6, with 5 of them resulting in losses. Second place Wycombe play against Rochdale so Rotherham’s result is all the more vital to stay top, this could be a comfortable game.

Crewe both teams to score against Cheltenham

Crewe’s games are never a poor watch for any neutral with the Railwaymen’s recent 9 having both teams scoring. Crewe’s games in League Two average 3.2 goals a game and they’ve scored 3 or more goals in 5 of their last 7 home games. Cheltenham’s away form is quite dangerous, they’ve avoided defeat in 11 of their 13 league matches and have scored exactly a goal a game, they will undoubtedly put up a real battle against a currently thriving side.

Northampton to win against Morecambe

Northampton have been convincing at home with 6 out of the last 7 home matches ending in victory, one of which was against previously mentioned, high flying Crewe. Morecambe have struggled for a few seasons now, they’ve been consistently finishing low in the table and are 23rd, 3 points above bottom of the league, Stevenage. Their away form doesn’t seem to spark any enthusiasm either losing 6 of their last 7 away games and looking majorly vulnerable. You’d expect a Northampton win and all stats point to it.

Plymouth to win against Mansfield

Plymouth were backed in last week’s accumulator and they walked a 3-0 win with young Luke Jephcott scoring yet another brace since his return from his loan at Truro. Plymouth have continued their upward rise and Mansfield do not look like a team that would be capable of stopping them. Mansfield have only won 1 of their last 12 games in all competitions and have conceded 2 or more in 4 of their last 5 matches. Plymouth should capitalise and ride the wave of goals they’re currently on.

This accumulator prices up at just below 10/1 for what looks like a prime opportunity to win some weekend funds.

ACCA ASSISTANCE

What would a Saturday be without the football and a little wager to follow alongside? There’s 8 Premier League, 11 Championship, 11 League One and 11 League Two games and some cracking value for a nice accumulator.

Middlesbrough to win against Derby 3:00PM:

Middlesbrough are starting to sneak their way back up the Championship table after a really rocky start, something seems to have clicked and they’ve picked up wins against high flying Preston and West Brom, they also secured a replay against Tottenham in the FA Cup where Spurs fielded a very strong side. Ashley Fletcher has really picked up in recent weeks with 3 goals in 5 games and will be a threat to Derby’s already horrendous away form. Derby picked up a win against Crystal Palace in the FA Cup but prior to that had only managed 3 points away from home out of the last possible 36, they’ve picked up 7 points in the league on the road and only scored 8 goals. It looks straight forward for Middlesbrough.

Hull vs Fulham- Both Teams to Score 3:00PM:

This game looks to have goals written all over it with both of the Championship’s top goalscorers playing for either side. Jarrod Bowen and Alexsandar Mitrovic have scored 17 and 18 goals respectively and are parts of sides that do not shy away from goal fests. In the Championship, Hull’s games have had over 2.5 goals in 17 of the 26 and Fulham have had the same in 15 fixtures, both teams averaging above 2.7 goals a game. There are goals here, simple as that.

Burton vs Fleetwood- Both Teams to Score 3:00PM:

Burton’s recent selection of results has seen plenty of goals, in their last 16 games there’s only been 2 finish with less than 2 goals. Fleetwood find themselves just outside the play-offs and since the start of the season have only not scored away from home on one occasion, that being in the first month of the season vs Lincoln. Joey Barton’s side have seen 39 goals in their 10 games on the road and with the likes of Paddy Madden leading the line on 13 goals this season, it’d be a surprise to see a tame game here.

Plymouth to win away at Carlisle 3:00PM:

Plymouth were one of the antepost favourites for the title this season and had a slightly problematic start to the season but in the recent 15 games in League Two they’re second on the form table. Plymouth are also coming off of a win away at Scunthorpe who themselves in recent weeks have turned the tables on their poor start to the season and 19 year old Luke Jephcott scored 2 goals in his first game since being recalled from his loan at Conference south Truro. Carlisle have conceded the third most goals in League Two and look vulnerable to a Pilgrims’ side on the rise.

Swindon vs Crewe- Both Teams to Score 3:00PM

Swindon host Crewe at the County Ground in a 1st vs 3rd clash, Crewe have 2 games in hand and a win here would give them the upper hand in the title race. Eoin Doyle has been simply exceptional for Swindon and has scored 23 goals in his 22 league games, he’s seemingly unstoppable and Crewe average over a goal a game conceded. Swindon also average over a goal a game conceded and, in this fixture’s, recent meeting there’s been 32 goals in the last 7 games. It’s an ongoing theme for the bet but, there’s going to be goals.
