Only Mo Salah and Erling Haaland have more goal involvements than the Englishman.
It’s been a fantastic first half of the season for Aston Villa’s number 11 Ollie Watkins, he’s bagged nine goals and assisted six in 18 Premier League appearances in 23/24. Given the bet has landed in a combined 18/19 matches between these sides at home and away respectively this campaign, the price is too big to ignore. If there are ten or more corners in this affair, this selection will be a winner. The averages are strong, I was expecting this line to be much higher given the statistics. Unai Emery’s men rack up an average of 7.33 with their opponents hitting 5.22.
Villa’s nine away days have all seen double digit corner totals, at an average of 12.56.Įrik ten Hag’s side average 9.33 corners per game here whilst conceding 4.78. When playing at Old Trafford, there has been an average of 14.11 corners per match, eight of the nine matches have witnessed at least 12 corners, well above the amount we need here. United have racked up 118, Villa aren’t far behind with 112. Only Arsenal and Liverpool have taken more corner kicks than these two sides in the top-flight this season. I’m not usually a corner bettor, however, the averages these teams are putting up are impressive.
