Football Bet of the Day: Goals for the Griffins

Cittadella v Perugia
Wednesday 18:00

In Germany yesterday, Hamburg devoured Erzgebirge, but the visitors slipped down a bit too easily. We'd hoped for a hiccup, but the hosts won 4-0 and the BTTS half of our bet let us down.

We've come to south to Italy today for one of this afternoon's five games from Serie B. Tenth-placed Cittadella are hosting ninth-placed Perugia and it could be a close affair.

We like the odds-against price on BTTS mainly because both teams have indeed scored on 9/11 Perugia away trips. The Griffins themselves have scored in all 11 of those games.

Cittadella are W6-D4-L6 at Stadio Pier Cesare Tombolato this term. Four of those six defeats have been against teams now in the top five, so they pose a threat today. The hosts have scored in 12/16, so we fancy they too can get on the score-sheet and help us land a BTTS bet.
