When both teams score its Goals Galore! This popular bet went down a storm last year, with Betfred dropping a whopping £2.5 million in one weekend alone! On two occasions last season, EVERY team scored in the Premier League! Due to Betfred offering 4/5 on all fixtures on the coupon, the treble payed at odds of 9/2 compared to the majority of other firms measly 5/2.
With the new season on the horizon Betfred were bound to make changes, and they certainly have reeled in their odds! They have two coupons available this season; one with every fixture at odds of 8/13 and a bonus coupon with selected fixtures, each with odds of approximately 8/11. Last year the minimum selection was a double, it is now a treble.
With no real form to go on, the opening few weekends are a difficult time to select fixtures where both teams will score. Betfred have removed just 6 UK fixtures from their bonus coupon, not surprisingly these contain the teams which were coming in almost every week last season! These removed fixtures are as follows -
Hull v Blackpool
Burnley v Watford
Peterborough v Crystal Palace
Southampton v Leeds
Walsall v Leyton Orient
Port Vale v Crawley
On Betfred's coupon with every fixture, a £10 six-fold on the above would return £177.69. The same wager with other firms all return over £200, with Victor Chandler offering £296.18! Now that is value!
Now of course a six-fold is a long shot, but it just goes to show that looking around the different firms could be very profitable this year.
I must say though, the bonus coupon from Betfred still does offer great value and is better odds than most other bookmakers, just beware the fixtures removed are the most likely to have both teams score!
Enjoy the new season and remember - Win, lose or draw; when both teams score it's Goals Galore!!
