Back Over 3.5 Goals @ 2.707/4 in Columbus v New England

Jay Heaps is taking New England to Columbus and Tobias Gourlay's keen to be along for the ride

Columbus v New England
Monday 00:00


Two nicely priced winners since our last update: first, a Chicharito hat-trick gave Leverkusen a 3-2 win at Mainz; then, yesterday evening, Besiktas came from two goals down to draw 2-2 with Galatasaray in the big game from Turkey.

We're hoping for a big finish on the other side of the pond tonight. Columbus Crew's home games have erred on the side of goals since Gregg Berhalter took charge: Mapfre Stadium has seen almost two-thirds go Over 2.5 Goals (31/49). The hosts have conceded in 12/15 there this season, with three of the most recent five delivering at least four match goals. Tonight, we fancy New England to help them get up and Over 3.5 Goals once more.

When Jay Heaps' New England have scored on the road, 12/15 have got to Over 3.5 Goals in total. Across all away games, four of their most recent seven have broken through that barrier and we like the price on another high scorer tonight.
