Over 1.5 Team Goals Tips Sat 20th Feb

There’s plenty of fixtures to go at this weekend whether you fancy a dabble in the FA Cup or in the lower leagues and I’ve been sifting through the fixtures to find a team goals treble that will warm the cockles on a wintry weekend.

Huddersfield vs Wolves

You can’t really deny Huddersfield’s goalscoring form at the moment but you also can’t deny that their results have been poor. For though The Terriers have scored more goals in their last 6 games than any other Championship side, they have only collected 7 points from those 6 games. They welcome Wolves to the John Smith’s Stadium this weekend and I feel they’re a pretty decent value point to bag a few goals.

Huddersfield grabbed a 0-2 away win at Forest last weekend, a decent result which marked the 15th consecutive game in which they have scored. That’s a pretty decent record when you consider that they sit a lowly 17th in The Championship, but it’s here at home where they’ve been even more convincing as of late. In their last 5 games here they’ve scored 2,3,5,1 and 2 goals with only 1 loss last time out against Cardiff.
This weekend it’s Wolves who are the visitors and with no win in 5 games and only 1 clean sheet in that time, Kenny Jackett’s men are slowly slipping down the table. They’ve conceded 2 or more goals in 3 of those 5 games, including a 1-2 loss to Preston at home last time out.

Huddersfield have the 5th best home goalscoring record in The Championship and I expect them to build on a run which has seen them score 2 or more goals here against Wolves in 4 of their last 5 meetings.

Forest Green vs Eastleigh

In all honesty I’m pretty shocked at the odds on offer here for Forest Green to score a couple of goals. It’s a meeting of two sides who are at polar opposite ends of the form table and the hosts should see this game out with ease.

It’s no loss in 8 games now for Forest Green, winning 7 of those, a run which has propelled them to 2nd in the table, just 4 points behind runaway leaders Cheltenham Town.  There have been talks for years now about Forest Green being a contender to go up but they just never seem to get over the line, but given their current run of form at this stage of the season, it could well be their year.  Here at home, Forest Green have won 8 games in a row, scoring 2 or more goals in 6 of those.  And they should continue to pile the pressure on Cheltenham this weekend with a win against an Eastleigh side who are slipping further and further away from their dream of a playoff spot.

The visitors come into this game sitting 8th and only 2 points off the playoffs, but they haven’t recorded a win in their last 10 games in all competitions now and have lost their last 3 on the bounce.  It’s a worrying time for Eastleigh who were flying high at one stage this season but having conceded 2 or more goals in each of their last 3 games and in 5 of their last 6 away from home, it’s hard to see how they can turn that around this weekend against arguably one of the strongest teams in the league.

When the two met earlier this season Eastleigh did exactly that, pulling off a shock 3-2 win on home soil, but we have to bear in mind that this win came when the two sides were in entirely different situations.  I expect Forest Green to win by a couple or more this weekend and pile the pressure on a Cheltenham side who face a tough journey to Tranmere.

Bristol Rovers vs Morecambe

I very much doubt that Bristol Rovers are going to get out of this game with a clean sheet to be honest, but they should come out of it with a few goals under their belt against an out of sorts Morecambe.

Few probably expected Bristol Rovers to have such a good season this year having only returned from the National League last term, but sitting 8th in the league and with the knowledge that a win this weekend could move them as high as 4th if results go their way, you really can’t deny that they have had a great season.  Things have slipped a bit as of late with back to back losses against Accrington and Portsmouth but here at home they’re undefeated in 5 games, scoring 2 or more goals in 4 of those and this weekend they host a Morecambe outfit who have the worst defense in League Two.

Morecambe have conceded a whopping 57 goals this season in 31 games and come into this game with no win in 6, conceding 2 or more goals in 5 of those.  Away from home they’ve conceded 2 or more goals in 6 of their last 7 games and against a free scoring Bristol Rovers I really don’t see how they can stop that run lengthening this weekend.  They are capable of scoring on their day, and I would expect them to here, so a BTTS & Win bet for Bristol Rovers also looks a great value punt.

When the two met earlier this season at The Globe Arena, Bristol Rovers put 4 past Morecambe sealing a 3-4 win, and it wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest if they were to match that tally in front of a home crowd this weekend.
