Goals Galore Betting Tip for Saturday 20th October

After a week of controversy, comebacks and Uefa charges league football returns with a packed Saturday schedule. Here is this weeks both teams to score betting tip with a potential win of around 8/1 with Ladbrokes Goal Rush.

Manchester United Vs Stoke City @ 11/10

A selection that will undoubtedly raise a few eyebrows but it is backed by some interesting statistics. First of all, stating the obvious, Manchester United score goals. Of the seven league games United have played they season they have only failed to score in one, with the reds finding the net seventeen times since their opening day 1-0 defeat at Goodison Park. With 52 goals from his last 58 league games, Robin Van Persie always provides a constant threat, combining this with Wayne Rooney who bagged three goals whilst on international duty and it difficult to see United not scoring.

Stoke City will be looking to cause a major upset against United at Old Trafford at the weekend and to do so they will must find the form that saw them bag goals in six of the eight games they played against the top four last season. Peter Crouch has scored a total of four goals in seven games this season and the Potters have Jon Walters returning to the squad having grabbed a goal for Ireland whilst on international duty. Tony Pulis’ side have only failed to score once in their last four meeting with United with a total of twenty-two goals being scored over the last eight games between the two sides.

MK Dons Vs Stevenage @ Evens

Fifteen goals and only two defeats for MK Dons leaves them sitting just outside the play-off places in League One after twelve games. Karl Robinson’s side go into the clash at the weekend on a seven game unbeaten run and they will undoubtedly be looking to maintain their record of scoring in all of their home league games so far this season. The Dons have managed to find the back of the net an impressive thirty-five times in their last twenty games at Stadium mk with over half of those games containing three or more goals.

Stevenage were brought back down to earth with a bump last weekend, suffering a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Colchester United to end their eleven game unbeaten streak in the league. Gary Smith’s side will be looking to return to winning ways and to do so they will need to keep up their record of scoring at least on goal in almost 88% of their league matches since mid-August. It is also worth noting that in their last twenty games away from Broadhall, Stevenage have managed to score a mighty thrity-one goals. The last encounter between the two sides saw the Boro run away 4-2 victors in only their second ever meeting.

Swindon Town Vs Scunthorpe United @ 5/6

Sitting in sixth position in League One after twelve games is something many Swindon fans would have settled for at the beginning of the season but this is seemingly not good enough for the Robins’ very own Mr Motivator, Paolo Di Canio. Scoring seventeen goals in twelve games and only suffering three defeats is the position the manager wants his team to push on from, starting with the game this weekend. Swindon have scored a whopping thirty-nine goals in their last twenty games at the County Ground and they will be looking for more this weekend.

The form of Scunthorpe is quite a contrast to that of Swindon, with the Iron sitting in a dangerous twenty-second position in League One having only won two games this season. Alan Knill has called on his players to put in a good performance at the weekend for the fans with long-term absentee, Michael Collins likely to make an appearance for the first time in over a year. In spite of Scunthorpe’s dismal form, it is worth noting that these two teams have history. In the last four meetings between the two sides there has not been a single clean sheet kept with a total of seventeen goals being scored over that period.
