First/Last Goalscorer

[rooster]

Of the premiership teams Van Nistelroy (Man U) is the top scorer with 18. It could be a good thing to look at backing him to be the first and last goalscorer in the matches to come. Van N has scored the first goal 5 times in Man Us 22 games this season and the last one 7 times. At average odds of 5.5 its a no brainer. If you had a point in every game for him to be the last scorer you would have bet 22 (if he played in every game) lost 15 and won 38.5 for a profit of 23.5. To be first scorer you would have bet 22 times, lost 17 and won 27.5 for a profit of 10.5. I think that is right. This weekend William Hill has Van Nistelroy at 5.5 to score first or last. Who knows how this will go but I'll try to keep a record. Rooster

Re: First/Last Goalscorer Interesting thought there Rooster. Have you checked to see which teams VN has scored first/last against; ie were they near the top middle or bottom of the league or in the middle of a good or bad run of from etc?
