Both Teams to Score
Monday night sees third host fourth in the Championship as Luton face off against Middlesbrough. Both sides look to have their play-off spot wrapped up, however, a win for either side would close the gap to Sheffield United in second.
Luton are in fine form and they’re unbeaten in their last 11 Championship games, while Boro have won their last two after suffering a slight dip in form.
If you had to pick a winner, Luton would probably be the selection, however, we’re going to look at the goals market instead – and we like the look of Both Teams to Score.
The selection has landed in Boro’s last five Championship games and in two of Luton’s last three outings. Both sides will be desperate to win on Monday night and it could lead to goals.
Over 2.5 Goals
We’re already on Both Teams to Score so chucking in Over 2.5 Goals makes plenty of sense.
Boro’s Championship games this season have averaged 3.1 goals, while Luton’s home average is 2.3 goals per match.
There have been three or more in all of Boro’s last five games and Luton have scored in four of their last five outings. Over 2.5 Goals seems a smart pick.
Chuba Akpom to Have 2 or More Shots on Target
If we need goals for our Bet Builder, we need shots on target, and we need to look no further than Boro’s Chuba Akpom.
Akpom has netted 28 Championship goals in 36 appearances this season and he’s scored in eight of his last nine games.
The 27-year-old averages just under three shots per game and his shot tally for his last seven matches reads 4, 2, 4, 3, 3, 1, 5. We fancy Akpom to Have 2 or More Shots on Target in a crucial game for Boro.

Cameron Archer to Have 1 or More Shots on Target
Akpom has been Boro’s main attacking threat this season, however, Cameron Archer has been almost as important since joining on loan from Aston Villa in January.
Archer and fellow Villa youngster Aaron Ramsey headed north in January and they’ve both impressed under Michael Carrick.
Archer has netted nine goals in 17 appearances since joining Boro and he averages around two shots per game. He’s had eight shots in his last two outings so expect him to Have 1 or More Shots on Target on Monday.
Hayden Hackney to Commit 2 or More Fouls
Finally, we’re in the fouls market and Boro’s Hayden Hackney is our man.
The midfielder is all action and he’s heavily involved in every game he plays. He’s netted three times (he’s scored in his last two) as well as chipping in with four assists. He’s also picked up eight yellow cards.
Hackney averages two fouls per game so we only need him to hit his season average for this part of the Bet Builder to land.
He’s made 10 tackles in his last two games and his foul tally for his last seven Championship matches reads: 3, 3, 7, 1, 2, 2, 3. More of the same will do us!
