Adam Drury – Banker
I’m going goal-heavy this week.
In the Coppa Italia, Juventus and Napoli – two of Serie A’s top three goalscoring sides – meet in Turin.
Cumulatively, the last nine games featuring these sides have produced over 1.5 goals. I’d be pretty surprised if that doesn’t happen again, and such an outcome is {ODDS:138900933:1/3}.
Closer to home, Swindon host a Gillingham side that have both scored and conceded in their last eight matches.
The Robins scored three themselves at the weekend, so both teams should score here at {ODDS:140155346:8/11}.
Doncaster, meanwhile, are always good for goals.
Darren Ferguson’s side have scored in 12 of their last 13 matches, while Cambridge have scored five and conceded four in their last three games.
Over 2.5 goals is available in this game at {ODDS:140285870:11/10}.
Tom Clee – Value bet
With a promising start now petering out, Steve McLaren’s second stint at Derby is fast becoming a microcosm of his first.
The Rams have not win in six, dropping points in the league to three struggling sides in Bristol City, Burton and Villa.
That bodes well for Blackburn, whose recent run of only three defeats in nine has kept them in with a realistic chance of staying up.
At {ODDS:140150835:3/5}, they should be confident of adding at least one more point to the board on Tuesday.
Avoid defeat in midweek, and Bradford will have gone an entire calendar year unbeaten at home in the league.
Given that they are welcoming MK Dons to Valley Parade – who have only won two of their last 13 away games in all competitions – their price of {ODDS:140154348:1/1} to win looks too good to turn down.
At the other end of the League One table, Bury have climbed out of the drop zone thanks to a run of one defeat in eight and three wins in their last four.
Coventry, on the other hand, have been doomed for a while and, at {ODDS:140154856:23/20} are great value to be beaten for the 21st time this season.
Rounding us off are Stevenage, whose five wins in six have seen them move to within a single point of the play-offs.
They are {ODDS:140282834:3/4} to continue that surge up the table against a Leyton Orient side who have lost eight of their last 10.
What can possibly go wrong?
Jack Green – Long shot
We begin this week’s long shot in the Championship, with a meeting of the division’s best home and away sides.
Brighton have only failed to score once at the Amex this season, while Newcastle have found the net in all but two of their league games on their travels.
This game promises goals, and both teams to score is an attractive bet at {ODDS:140151332:10/11}.
Dropping down a tier, I’m backing Rochdale at {ODDS:140153828:4/7} to get over their recent blip with a home win over Port Vale.
The visitors have won just once away all season and are winless in nine overall. They are unlikely to improve upon that record against the division’s fifth-best home side.
I’m going European with the remainder of my picks, starting with the Coppa Italia semi-final first leg between Juventus and Napoli.
It’s hard to look past the Bianconeri, who are unbeaten at home in all competitions this season, winning 16 of their 19 games in Turin.
Given that Napoli have scored 13 goals in their last five matches, though, I fancy them to get on the scoresheet here.
Juventus to win and both teams to score looks like great value at {ODDS:138900925:3/1}.
Leganes’ trip to Valencia should be another festival of goals.
There have been fewer than two goals in only two of Valencia’s 24 league games this season, while Leganes’ last six fixtures have featured 17 goals.
At {ODDS:138685505:1/3}, over 1.5 goals is easy money.
And finally, sticking with La Liga, I fancy Malaga to take at least a point at home to struggling Real Betis.
The visitors are winless in six overall and have lost their last six away from home, so Malaga double chance at {ODDS:138685978:2/9} seems pretty safe.
