Betting Hub App: Most Likely Games for Over 2.5 Goals In Saturday's Action

The first game on this list comes from Bundesliga 2, as 17th placed Sandhausen takes on seventh in the table Fortuna Dusseldorf at the BWT Stadium on Hardtwald.

In Sandhausen’s last five games, four of them have yielded over 2.5 goals, in defeats to St. Pauli, Karlsruher, and Paderborn, with the other game coming in a 3-0 home victory against fellow strugglers Osnabruck.

Meanwhile, Fortuna’s last three matches have all been entertaining spectacles, as they beat the likes of Hannover 96 and Nurnberg 3-2 and 3-1, losing 3-2 to Heidenheim away from home in between these two victories.

The Odds of 9/10 for over 2.5 goals to be scored in this game are fair, as Fortuna have a lot of quality in their ranks as they were only relegated from the Bundesliga last season, whilst Sandhausen have the second-worst defensive record in the league, conceding 45 times in 24 matches.

Saturday also sees Borussia Dortmund play Hertha Berlin in the Bundesliga, with the Black and Yellows coming into this game in 6th, whilst the visitors are currently 15th.

Dortmund are known for being an entertaining attacking team, hence why they have scored the second-most goals in the Bundesliga with 50. Their defence has tended to let them down yet again this campaign, as they have conceded 35 goals in the league, however, visitors Hertha have the third-worst defence in the division, leaking 43 in 24 matches.

Predictably, the over 2.5 goals market has landed in four of Dortmund’s last five matches, in 3-0 and 4-0 wins against Arminia Bielefeld and Schalke, as well as in a 4-2 loss to Bayern Munich last weekend and their 2-2 home draw against Sevilla in the Champions League in midweek.

Two of Hertha’s last three games have had over 2.5 goals in them, as they lost 3-0 to RB Leipzig in late February, and beat Augsburg 2-1 at the Olympiastadion.

Last time these two sides met was back in November, when Dortmund hammered Hertha 5-2 away from home, with Erling Haaland scoring four of his 19 Bundesliga goals this campaign.

This game is priced at 11/20 which is fair considering the previous meeting between these two sides, as well as the statistics mentioned above.

The next game comes from the Swiss Super League, where third place Basel hosts fifth-placed Luzern in what promises to be an entertaining game at St. Jakob-Park.

Basel have been the architects of their own downfall this season, having scored the fourth-most goals in the league with 34 in 24 matches, whilst having the fourth-worst defence in the division, conceding 35.

Meanwhile, Luzern are the top scorer in the league with 43 goals and sit just two points behind Basel.

Two of Basel’s last three games have had over 2.5 goals in them, having lost 2-1 and 3-1 to the likes of Servette and St. Gallen away from home.

Whilst four of Luzern’s last five had yielded over 2.5 goals in them, with 3-2, 2-1 and 4-2 wins against Lugano, Zurich and St. Gallen, as well as earning a point against runaway league leaders Young Boys on 28th February in a 2-2 home draw.

The odds stand at 3/4 for this game to have over 2.5 goals in it, which decent considering the records of both sides.

Third place AZ Alkmaar face FC Twente in the Dutch Eredivisie, with the visitors currently sat in eighth place.

AZ are the third top scorer in the Dutch top flight, having scored 57 goals in 25 matches. This is shown by the fact that they managed 3-1, 4-1 and 4-2 wins over Heerenveen, VVV Venlo and Feyenoord before falling to a 2-1 defeat at Vitesse last weekend.

Twente have had three of their last five matches fall into the over 2.5 goals market, in two 2-2 draws late last month against Heracles and Feyenoord, as well as being on the wrong end of a 3-0 hammering by PSV on 6th February.

Last time these two sides met was in December, where AZ ran out as 3-1 winners at De Grolsch Veste thanks to goals by Teun Koopmeiners (2) and Yukinari Sugawara.

This game is priced at 4/7 to have over 2.5 goals in it, which is reasonable considering the statistics that have been mentioned above

The final game on this list is another Bundesliga game, where Werder Bremen have the unenviable task of playing Bayern Munich at Weser Stadium.

The last time Werder were involved in a game that had over 2.5 goals in it was in a 2-1 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt on 26th February.

Bayern’s last five matches have all seen the over 2.5 goals market land, as they had some unpredictable results last month having drawn 3-3 with Arminia Bielefeld and lost 2-1 to Eintracht, before beating Lazio 4-1, Koln 5-1 and Dortmund 4-2.

The champions are the top scorers in the division, finding the back of the net 71 times in 24 matches, which is 21 more goals than second top scorers Dortmund.

Werder against Bayern is priced at 4/11 to have over 2.5 goals in it which is understandable considering Bayern’s scoring record, as well as the fact that top scorer Robert Lewandowski has already scored 31 league goals in 23 appearances this campaign.
