The Most Statistically-Backed Match Result-BTTS Tips - 2/4/22

On Saturday in the Bundesliga, league leaders Bayern Munich travels to fifth in the table Freiburg, with Julian Nagelsmann’s men looking to extend their six-point gap to Borussia Dortmund.

Prior to Freiburg’s 0-0 draw with Greuther Furth last time out, the Both Teams to Score market had landed in their last three matches, following a 3-2 victory over Wolfsburg, as well as in a 1-1 draw with RB Leipzig and a 2-1 DFB Pokal victory over Bochum.

On the other hand, Bayern thrashed Union Berlin 4-0 at the Allianz Arena in their last match, after drawing 1-1 with both Hoffenheim and Bayer Leverkusen on either side of their 7-1 thumping of RB Salzburg.

The last time these two sides met back in early November, Bayern ran out as 2-1 winners thanks to goals by Leon Goretzka and Robert Lewandowski. Bayern have won four of their last five meetings with Freiburg, with the Both Teams to Score market landing in each of these victories.

In La Liga, Celta Vigo hosts runaway league leaders Real Madrid at Estadio de Balaidos.

Carlo Ancelotti’s men thumped Celta 5-2 in their last meeting back in September, as Karim Benzema scored a hat-trick, whilst Vinicius Junior and Eduardo Camavinga also got on the scoresheet.

The home side, who are currently 11th in the Spanish top-flight have won just one of their last five matches, via a 4-3 scoreline at home to Mallorca. Celta’s only other points from their last five fixtures have come by 0-0 and 1-1 draws with Real Betis and Levante.

Real’s only blot on their copybook in their last five matches was their humiliating 4-0 loss to Barcelona before the international break. Before this, Ancelotti’s side had beaten Mallorca 3-0, PSG 3-1, Real Sociedad 4-1 and Rayo Vallecano 1-0.

Top of the table Gateshead go up against second-place Brackley Town in a crucial battle at the top of the National League North.

Brackley could only manage a 1-1 draw last time out away at Spennymoor Town, following back to back 1-0 victories over Alfreton Town and Kidderminster Harriers. Prior to the aforementioned matches, they also managed to beat AFC Telford 2-1 and Guiseley 5-0.

Mike Williamson’s men come into this clash in identical form, as they drew 0-0 at home to Bradford Park Avenue. Gateshead have been a free-scoring side of late, as they hammered Curzon Ashton and Kidderminster 4-0 on either side of 2-1 and 4-2 victories over both Boston United and Gloucester City.

The next tip takes us back to Germany, but this time to Bundesliga 2, as promotion hopefuls St. Pauli face a tricky test away at Hansa Rostock.

Rostock may be in 11th place, but, they have won all of their last three matches after narrowly defeating Saundhausen 1-0, as well as beating Holstein Kiel and Schalke 04 by 3-2 and 4-3 scorelines.

Table-toppers St. Pauli managed a 1-0 win at Heidenheim last time out after a 1-1 draw away at Dynamo Dresden. Timo Schultz’s side also managed back to back 3-1 victories over Karlsruher and Ingolstadt on either side of a DFB Pokal defeat to Union Berlin.

The final tip on this list sees fifth-placed AZ Alkmaar take on sixth in the Dutch Eredivisie Vitesse on Saturday.

In the last meeting at Alkmaar back in December 2020, AZ ran out as 3-1 victors, as goals by Jesper Karlsson, Myron Boadu and Ferdy Druijf settled the outcome.

AZ’s form has been inconsistent of late, having been knocked out of the Europa Conference League 4-3 on aggregate by Bodo/Glimt, as well as drawing 2-2 with Willem II, losing 1-0 to FC Twente, but beating NEC 3-1.

On the other hand, Vitesse also exited the Europa Conference League to AS Roma 2-1 on aggregate. In their domestic league, they were beaten 2-1 by RKC Waalwijk, as well as drawing 0-0 with Heracles. Ironically, Vitesse’s last win also came against NEC as they hammered them 4-1 at home.
