Liverpool F.C. vs. Chelsea F.C.
Saturday, January 21, 2023 – 07:30 AM EST at Anfield
Kai Havertz (Chelsea)
- Over/Under Shots on Target
Saturday's early morning kick-off in the Premier League takes us to Anfield where 9th-placed Liverpool takes on 10th-placed Chelsea with a big game anticipated here as both teams are playing well below par this season and currently level on points.
Although Chelsea is on the road and has been poor away from home (failing to win their previous 5) we are laying juice for their likely striker of the day, Kai Havertz, to have over 0.5 shots on target at EPL odds of -140.
Havertz has been one of the shining lights for Chelsea this season, albeit he is still not playing to the level he can. Nonetheless, he has scored the most goals on this team, averaged the most shots per game, and has averaged 1.1 shots on target per game this season.
The German player scored when these teams met in the league last time out. On that day he scored the first goal of the game and has also done so in his previous four outings. Havertz is available to bet to score first at +1000 which seems like incredible value in our opinion. At the very least we believe he can have a shot on target.
Soccer Pick: Havertz Over 0.5 Shots on Target (-140) at the Top Rated Sportsbooks
Real Betis Balompie vs. RCD Espanyol de Barcelona
Saturday, January 21, 2023 – 10:15 AM EST at RCDE Stadium
Joselu (Espanyol)
- Anytime Goalscorer
This play takes us to Barcelona as we are looking at Espanyol’s striker Joselu to find the back of the net on home soil at La Liga odds of +180 against Real Betis.
It will likely be a surprise for many of our readers to learn that Joselu is currently the second top goalscorer in La Liga this season, with only Barcelona’s Robert Lewandowski having had more goals than him.
Joselu has hit double-digit figures for the fourth season in a row and has scored seven of his previous eight goals after halftime. Joselu has netted three penalties and scored seven from open play thus far this season.
At 32 years old Joselu brings a lot of experience to this Espanyol team, and he has been a bit of a journeyman throughout his career having played for teams such as Real Madrid, Hoffenheim, Hannover, Stoke, and Newcastle just to name a few.
Since joining Espanyol, the 32-year-old has scored in 11 of his 21 appearances, with Joselu on fire this season and likely on penalty duties this is a strong play.
Soccer Pick: Joselu Anytime Goalscorer (+180) at BetOnline
Udinese Calcio vs. U.C. Sampdoria
Sunday, January 22, 2023 – 06:30 AM EST at Stadio Luigi Ferraris
Mehdi Leris (Sampdoria)
- Over/Under Cards
Sampdoria are the highest carded teams in the league this season having picked up 3.17 per game. They're the only team with an average of more than 2. Leading the charge has been Algerian midfielder Mehdi Leris, who has picked up seven yellow cards in 16 league games.
Leris concedes 2.2 fouls per game and at Serie A odds of +190 we believe he represents some nice value to be booked in this must win early Sunday morning kick off game for Sampdoria who are in 19th position in the league table. Desperation usually leads to rash challenges and cards.
Soccer Pick: Leris Over 0.5 Cards (+190) at BetOnline
Manchester United vs. Arsenal F.C.
Sunday, January 22, 2023 – 11:30 AM EST at Emirates Stadium
Gabriel Martinelli (Arsenal)
- Anytime Goalscorer
The Gunners are now five points clear of Man City and have a game in hand, this is a must win game for Arsenal if they want to make a statement. Earlier in the season when these teams met, Man Utd came away as 3-1 winners, although anybody who watched that game will say Arsenal were unlucky to lose.
We are loving the odds on Arsenal’s Brazilian winger Gabriel Martinelli to score at +225. Martinelli has scored seven goals in 18 appearances this season and is the Gunners second highest top goalscorer. Martinelli has not scored since the beginning of the New Year, this could be a perfect scenario for the winger to step up with his first goal in 2023.
Soccer Pick: Martinelli Anytime Goalscorer (+225) at BetOnline
