Get ready to win with Bet9ja as we preview another week of exciting football action, and most importantly goals, across the world’s best leagues.
Here are our five goalscorer picks for this week’s action.
Evander vs New York City
Cincinnati have hit a minor bump in the road, failing to win their last two games after an impressive run of four straight wins. They will be eager to return to winning ways when they host New York City.
Both sides have managed just two clean sheets combined in their last 24 games, and their last meeting in April ended in a 4-4 draw, which suggests plenty of goals here.
The man most likely to provide them for Cincinnati is Brazilian forward Evander, who has been one of the standout performers in the MLS this season. Evander has been involved in goals and assists in almost every game and will be a fine pick to keep that run going.
Key Stat: Evander has contributed 10 goals and assists in his last 8 games for Cincinnati.
Pick: Evander to score anytime @2.30
Kasper Hogh vs LASK
Celtic face Austrian side LASK in the Champions League play-off first leg at Parkhead.
The hosts have scored 10 goals in their opening three matches this season, including last weekend’s impressive 4-0 win over Dundee United.
Summer signing Kasper Hogh has wasted no time settling in, bagging a hat-trick in only his second game.
LASK have also been sharp in front of goal, scoring 16 goals in four matches, so this promises to be an entertaining fixture.
Key Stat: Kasper Hogh has scored 3 goals in 3 games for Celtic since joining from Bodo/Glimt.
Pick: Hogh to score anytime @2.20
Talisca vs Lyon
Fenerbahce have already navigated two rounds of Champions League qualifying and must now take down Lyon in two legs to return to the UCL for the first time since 2008.
Brazilian forward Talisca has been in excellent form for the Turkish giants, scoring in all four UCL qualifiers this season. He also found the net in the shock 2-1 defeat to Genclerbirligi at the weekend, extending his fine scoring run.
This could be a close game, but Talisca’s form makes him an excellent value pick.
Key Stat: Talisca has scored in 5 consecutive competitive games for Fenerbahce this season.
Pick: Talisca to score anytime @2.25
Lionel Messi vs Philadelphia Union
Inter Miami travel to face Philadelphia Union in an MLS Eastern Conference clash, on the back of three consecutive defeats.
Their recent form has raised massive concerns, especially after crashing out of the Leagues Cup to Leon in the group stage.
That said, Inter Miami games are almost guaranteed to have multiple goals, with 17 goals in their last four matches.
Lionel Messi may not have hit his best form since returning from the World Cup but remains the most likely source of goals in what promises to be another open game.
Key Stat: Lionel Messi has contributed 4 goals and assists in his last 3 starts.
Pick: Messi to score anytime @1.90
Sam Surridge vs New York Red Bulls
Eastern Conference leaders Nashville face New York Red Bulls this week, full of confidence after defeating Inter Miami 4-1.
Nashville sit top of the Eastern Conference on 43 points from 19 games, with the best goal difference in the conference at plus 24, and a big reason for that is striker Sam Surridge.
The Englishman has scored four goals in his last seven games and will fancy his chances against a Red Bulls defence without a single clean sheet in their last 14 matches.
Key Stat: Sam Surridge has 12 goals in the MLS this season.
Pick: Surridge to score anytime @2.15
