Paul Higham is targeting Lois Openda to have a big say in his 9/25.50 stats-based trble he's picked out for RB Leipzig's Bundeliga clash with Hoffenheim...
RB Leipzig look to continue their improving form when they host Hoffenheim on Saturday night looking for a sixth home win in a row.
Hoffenheim ended a bad run of five games without a win in their last match, but they've only won one of 12 against Leipzig so will need to improve on that to bolster their chances of qualifying for Europe.
Marco Rose rested a few of his star players during their midweek Champions League win so we can expect them to show up on the stat sheet as we search for a winner.
Lois Openda tops the team with 34 shots on target and has nine games with two or more.
Three of thise games have come in the last five, which should be four really because against Young Boys during the week he only played a few minutes off the bench.
He's a short price at 1/31.33 for 2+ shots on target here but something to base our Bet Builder on.
Belgian forward Openda is an all-action type of guy and also leads Leipzig in terms of giving away fouls with 24 this season.
The 23-year-old has been putting himself about a bit recently, with Openda giving away multiple fouls in his last three Bundesliga games.
Considering that, the 5/61.84 quoted for him to give away another 2+ fouls seems pretty good.
Since this is an Openda special, we'll include the fact that he's also been fouled more time than any other RB Leipzig player.
So that leaves plenty of scope for Hoffenheim defenders to give away free kicks, and at the prices then Kevin Akpoguma looks the man to side with.
The Nigerian has just returned from suspension and has four games with multiple fouls conceded - so 1/12.00 for him to give away 2+ fouls again against this oppnent looks reasonable.
