Match Result And Over 2.5 Goals Tips For Saturday’s Action – 5/6/21

The first game on this list of tips for match result and over 2.5 goals to be scored sees bottom of the table Newcastle Jets host ninth in the table, Perth Glory, at the McDonald Jones Stadium.

Newcastle come into this game on the back of a 2-0 victory against Central Coast Mariners last weekend thanks to goals from Roy O’Donovan and Lucas Mauragis, having gone three matches without a win prior to what was just their fourth win in 24 league matches.

Glory were narrowly beaten 2-1 last time out against Brisbane Roar but had previously gone four games unbeaten prior to this, beating Western Sydney Wanderers and Adelaide United 5-1 and 2-1, as well as drawing 1-1 and 2-2 against Macarthur Bulls and Wellington Phoenix.

We will be hoping for a similar outcome to that which happened when these two sides met in late March, where Perth beat the Jets 2-1 via goals from Ciaran Bramwell and Darryl Lachman despite going down to 10 men in the first half, following a red card for Jonathan Aspropotamitis.

The next game on this list sees Russia take on Bulgaria as Stanislav Cherchesov’s side prepare for Euro 2020.

Russia’s form has been indifferent, having drawn 1-1 with Poland and losing 2-1 to Slovakia, but beating Slovenia 2-1 and Malta 3-1 in their last four matches, with Artem Dzyuba, Mario Fernandes and Aleksandr Sobolev all getting on the scoreboard in the latter.

Bulgaria are without a win in their last five matches, drawing 1-1 with Slovakia last time out, as well as 0-0 with both Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, as well as being beaten 2-0 by Italy and 3-1 by Switzerland.

Saturday also sees an intriguing clash take place in the A-League as sixth in the table Brisbane Roar host second-placed Sydney at the Dolphin Stadium.

Brisbane come into this match having won three of their last four matches, beating Perth Glory 2-1, Melbourne City 3-0 and Newcastle Jets 2-1, with their only blot on their recent record being a 2-0 loss against Western Sydney Wanderers.

Sydney are unbeaten in their last five matches, winning their last four against Western United 1-0, Melbourne Victory 2-0 and Western Sydney Wanderers 1-0, with their most recent win being their most notable, thumping Adelaide United 4-1 away from home, where former Bolton Wanderers striker Adam Le Fondre scored a brace, whilst Bobo and Patrick Wood added to the scoresheet.

Sweden face Armenia as they warm up for Group E at the Euros which contains the likes of Poland, Slovakia and Spain.

Sweden come into this game in good form, having won four out of their last five matches following their 2-0 victory against Finland on 29th May where Robin Quaison and Sebastian Larsson both scored. The Swedes most recent wins also include 3-0, 1-0 and 2-1 victories against Kosovo, Georgia and Croatia.

Armenia are in incredible form, having won four of their last five games against North Macedonia, Liechtenstein, Iceland and Romania, as well as earning an impressive 1-1 draw away at Croatia last time out thanks to Wbeymar Angulo’s 72nd-minute strike, which cancelled out Ivan Perisic’s first-half opener.

The final match on this list of tips sees Wales take on Albania at the Cardiff City Stadium as Interim Manager Robert Page prepares his side for Group A in the Euros, where they will face Italy, Switzerland and Turkey.

Wales lost last time out to World Champions France 3-0, as Kylian Mbappe, Antoine Griezmann and Ousmane Dembele all scored, but, prior to this game, they had won four of their last five international matches, beating the Republic of Ireland 1-0, Finland 3-1, Mexico 1-0 and the Czech Republic 1-0 via a late Daniel James goal in the latter.

Albania come into this match in decent form, having beaten Kazakhstan 3-1, Belarus 3-2, Andorra 1-0, and San Marino 2-0, with Rey Manaj and Myrto Uzuni scoring in the last match. Their only defeat in their last five came at home to England on 28th March, as Mason Mount and Harry Kane scored in a 2-0 victory for the Three Lions.
