The Most Statistically-Backed Match Result-BTTS Tips - 1/3/22

The first tip on this list comes from the DFB Pokal, as Union Berlin hosts St. Pauli at Stadion An der Alten Forsterei in the quarter-finals.

Union come into this match in inconsistent form, having beaten Mainz 3-1 last time out thanks to goals by Genki Haraguchi, Sheraldo Becker and Taiwo Awoniyi. Prior to that, Union had been beaten 1-0 by Arminia Bielefeld, 3-0 at home to Borussia Dortmund and 2-0 away at Augsburg. Prior to these defeats, they managed a 2-1 victory against Borussia Monchengladbach.

St. Pauli have won two of their last three games in Bundesliga 2, with both of these landing in the Both Teams to Score market, following 3-1 and 3-2 victories over Ingolstadt and Jahn Regensburg on either side of a 3-0 loss to Hannover 96. Prior to these victories, they had drawn 2-2 at home to Paderborn and lost 2-1 away at local rivals Hamburg.

Servette takes on Young Boys in the Swiss Super League on Tuesday night in a battle of sixth against second in the standings.

Alain Geiger’s side have won one of their last four matches in the Swiss top-flight, with that coming by a 1-0 scoreline at home to Lausanne Sport, with their most recent results being 5-1 and 2-0 defeats to St Gallen and Lugano on either side of a 1-1 draw with Luzern.

Meanwhile, Young Boys who are managed by former Huddersfield Town coach David Wagner have won three of their last five league matches, beating Lugano 1-0, before drawing 3-3 away at St Gallen and since then, have won two of their last three matches by 3-1 scorelines against Basel and Sion on either side of a 2-2 draw away at Grasshopper.

On Tuesday night in League One, 11th in the table Portsmouth hosts fourth-place Oxford United at Fratton Park.

When these two sides last met in early February, Oxford emerged as 3-2 winners at the Kassam, as Karl Robinson’s side recovered from a 2-1 deficit thanks to 82nd and 96th-minute goals from Cameron Brannagan and Nathan Holland.

Pompey comes into this match in good form, as prior to their 3-3 draw with Fleetwood Town at the weekend, they had beaten both Shrewsbury Town and Burton Albion by 2-1 scorelines as well as Doncaster Rovers 4-0.

On the other hand, Oxford lost 2-0 to Accrington Stanley and Bolton by 2-0 and 3-2 scorelines after their victory over Portsmouth. Robinson’s men quickly bounced back though by hammering Charlton Athletic 4-0 at The Valley, before narrowly winning 1-0 away at Crewe Alexandra and running out as 4-2 winners at home to Cambridge United last time out.

Promotion hunting Wigan Athletic faces relegation-threatened Fleetwood Town in a meeting of second versus 19th in English football’s third-tier.

When these two sides last met in November at Highbury, the Latics ran out as 3-2 winners as the Cod Army raced into a two-goal lead thanks to strikes from Danny Andrew and Callum Morton, before goals by Callum Lang, Will Keane and Curtis Tilt turned the game around.

The Latics will be desperate to improve from their heavy 3-0 defeat at home to Sunderland last time out, having previously won three of their last four matches, beating the likes of Wycombe Wanderers 3-1, after drawing 1-1 away at Rotherham United and managing 2-0 and 2-1 wins at home to Crewe Alexandra and Charlton Athletic.

Coming into this match, Simon Grayson’s side had drawn three games in a row by 1-1 scorelines against Cambridge United, Shrewsbury Town and MK Dons. After these draws, the Cod Army were beaten 2-0 away at Cheltenham Town and drew 3-3 with Portsmouth at Fratton Park.

The final tip on this list comes from the FA Cup where Championship outfit Peterborough United go head to head with defending Premier League champions Manchester City.

Peterborough are in poor form coming into this fixture, having lost their last three matches 3-0 against Hull City, as well as 2-1 at Fulham and 1-0 away at Derby County. Posh’s last point came in a 0-0 home draw with Reading after a 1-0 defeat to Preston North End.

City managed a slightly fortuitous 1-0 victory at Everton with the Toffees’ penalty shout for a Rodri handball being turned down. This was off the back of a 3-2 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur having hammered Sporting Lisbon 5-0, Norwich City 4-0 and beaten Brentford 2-0 in their other three matches.

Something which the hosts can be slightly optimistic about is their good form in the cup, having beaten Bristol Rovers 2-1 and QPR 2-0 in the last two rounds, whilst City thumped Swindon Town and Fulham by 4-1 scorelines.
