Set Piece Mismatch, Terrats Syndrome & Tudor's Tackles

đź’° Punt: Michael Helik 2+ Shots & Michael Helik 3+ Shots
đź“— Bookie: Bet365
🎲 Odds: 8.00 (7/1) & 21.00 (20/1)
⚽️ Game: Sheffield Wednesday vs. Oxford Utd
Sheffield Wednesday have been knocked off top spot for conceding the most goals in The Championship! They now sit joint 2nd with Luton for allowing the opposition to score 17 times from set-pieces, with Plymouth taking top spot having let in 18.
The Owls have conceded 167 shots from set plays which is 37.95% of the shots they have faced this season, with the 17 goals conceded from such situations accounting for 28.33% of the total goals they’ve allowed. Although Oxford rank quite lowly in the league in terms of shots from attacking set-pieces (131 shots - 17th in division), they have scored 14 goals from them which is the second highest in the league. The January arrival of Michael Helik has only aided their goalscoring prowess from free-kicks and corners as the former Huddersfield man has scored 3 goals from his 13 efforts on goal. Registering 2+ shots in 4 of his last 8 games and having 3+ shots on one occasion. I could not put you off Helik scoring anytime, however, I’ve been suckered in by the price on his centre-back partner to score a header. Silly old me.
Punts:
Michael Helik Over 1.5 Shots @ 8.00 (7/1) - Bet365
Michael Helik Over 2.5 Shots @ 21.00 (20/1) - Bet365
Ben Nelson To Score a Header @ 67.00 (66/1) - Bet365
Ben Nelson To Score a Header & Siriki Dembele To Assist @ 201.00 (200/1) - Bet365
đź’° Punt: Ramon Terrats To Score Anytime & Ramon Terrats To Score 2 Or More
đź“— Bookie: Betfair or Paddy Power
🎲 Odds: 9.00 (8/1) & 126.00 (125/1)
⚽️ Game: Getafe vs. Las Palmas
Who the fuck is Ramon Terrats? Good question.
The Villarreal loanee is in great goalscoring form having scored back-to-back braces in between being ineligible to face his parent club. Getafe now play more relegation fodder in Las Palmas who sit 19th in La Liga, always a task tipping something after the gravy train might have already departed the station, however, the 8/1 available with Betfair and Paddy Power looks too big to turn down. As does the 125/1 for a brace! Yup yup.
Punts:
Ramon Terrats To Score Anytime @ 9.00 (8/1) - Betfair/Paddy Power
Ramon Terrats To Score 2 Or More @ 126.00 (125/1) - Betfair/Paddy Power
đź’° Punts: Pierre Kalulu Over 1.5 Fouls Committed & Pierre Kalulu To Be Booked
đź“— Bookie: Bet365
🎲 Odds: 4.33 (10/3) & 10.00 (9/1)
⚽️ Game: Juventus vs. Lecce
The Old Lady’s previous two games have seen 47 & 40 match tackles. The two games that Croatian manager Igor Tudor has been in charge of. Lecce average the 5th most tackles in Serie A at 17.6 per game with Juventus in 6th at 16.1 per game. Tudor sets his teams up in a 3-4-2-1 formation and Pierre Kalulu should line up on the right hand side of the back 3.
Kalulu was aggressive in his pressing against Roma and racked up 2 fouls and 4 tackles including a heroic last man tackle to prevent Roma from scoring a certain goal. He should be tasked with marking Tete Morente. Morente’s fouled stats haven’t been great, however, last week vs. Venezia, he was fouled 8 times. So, it’s either gonna be another donut and we’re asking what the hell is a polar bear doing in Arlington, Texas? Or Morente has turned into a foul winning machine and Kalulu boots fuck out of him.
