Football Bet of the Day: Dolphins to be swimming in goals

After a dramatic push in Italy, Kev’s staying there for another wager.

Plenty of goals to see in Serie B

Pescara v Venezia
Thursday 27 December, 18:00

It was a day late, but we got a Christmas miracle yesterday, as our boys Pontedera recovered from a 3-1 deficit against Lucchese with five minutes to go to draw 3-3. Admittedly, that result only saw our stake returned, but it was better than losing.

We’ll stay in Italy but move up a level, because Pescara are up against Venezia, and I reckon we might see a few goals.

Pescara (or the Dolphins, if you prefer) are five points off top spot in the second tier, but are having a bit of a wobble recently. They have won just one of their last five matches, and they’ve lost three of those games.

Venezia are mid-table, but are on a run of just two defeats in ten matches. In that run, Walter Zenga’s side (yes, that Walter Zenga) have scored in nine of the games, but have only kept three clean sheets.

Both teams have scored in nine of Venezia’s 16 league matches this term, while both teams have found the net in 12 of Pescara’s 16 outings in Serie B.

I’ll back both teams to score at [1.96].

2018 P/L:

+8.04 points
