Tuesday sees a stacked schedule as the EFL joins forces with the Champions League to give us plenty to get stuck into from a betting perspective.
I’m in anytime scorer mode and tonight’s treble is available at 24/1 with Paddy Power.
- Dane Scarlett (Burton v PORTSMOUTH)
- Lucas Akins (MANSFIELD v Carlisle)
- Alexis Sanchez (MARSEILLE v Frankfurt)
Dane Scarlett (Burton v PORTSMOUTH)
The Tottenham loanee looks a real star in the making and four goals in his last three games suggests he could well rip up the third tier this season.
And Burton have far and away the worst defensive record the division, so there’s no better side for Scarlett to continue his hot scoring streak against.
Lucas Akins (MANSFIELD v Carlisle)
Mansfield find themselves in a play-off place after a steady start to the season and in their run of back-to-back wins, Akins has scored in both of them.
Carlisle head into this one on the back of a 3-3 draw at home to basement boys Rochdale, so they aren’t in the best shape defensively ahead of the trip to Nottinghamshire.
Alexis Sanchez (MARSEILLE v Frankfurt)
The former Arsenal and Manchester United man has started life at Marseille well after joining from Inter Milan in the summer and comes into this one on a run of four goals in as many games.
Frankfurt followed up their home humbling from Sporting Lisbon in the Champions League with a 1-0 Bundesliga defeat to Wolfsburg, so I fancy their poor run to continue in the south of France.
