Anytime Goalscorers 31st August - English Lower Leagues and Scotland

I've been studying the English lower Leagues and Scotland for value goalscorer bets.  I thought i'd give it a go and share my bets on here along with reasoning.  There's nothing better than watching Soccer Saturday's vidi-printer on Sky and seeing your player's name appear....as long as it's not for a sending off!  Good luck if you follow and i'll be trying to do this weekly.




Anton Forrester (85/40, BetVictor) - BURY v Cheltenham

This lad is a 19 year old former Everton trainee on loan at Bury from Blackburn Rovers.  He was signed on loan after banging in 7 goals during a pre-season win and has started the season in fantastic style.  Forrester has notched in each of Bury's last 3 games, including getting on the scoresheet against Premier League outfit Norwich in the League Cup on Tuesday.  To be able to get over 2/1 for this bet is great value.


Jordan Chappell  (15/4, Bet365) - TORQUAY v Hartlepool

21 year old Jordan is a recent free aquisition from Sheffield United.  The winger has started well with 3 goals in the last two outings and will be a threat again on home soil for sure this weekend.

Aaron Downes (11/1, Bet365) - TORQUAY v Hartlepool

This Centre-back is a constant threat from set pieces and he's already scored 6 goals in 39 appearances for Torquay, notching once already this season.  Continually backing him will yield a nice profit at these odds come the end of the season.




Jake Hyde (10/11, Bet365) - BARNET v Hyde

Jake Hyde has scored 5 in 5 so far this season and his team Barnet are playing the league's worst defence in Hyde who have conceded 15 in 5 games.  There are sure to be goals for Barnet in this game and therefore, surely goals for Jake Hyde.




Lee Gregory (29/20, BetVictor) - Salisbury v HALIFAX

Lee has scored 4 in 5 this season for high-flying Halifax, as they travel to struggling Salisbury.  29/20 is great value for him to notch his fifth of the season here.

Billy McKay (6/5, Betfred/Ladbrokes) - INVERNESS v Hearts

Inverness have started the season well with prolific striker Billy McKay notching in 3 of their 4 matches so far.  McKay also scored the last time these sides met in February.

Reece Hands (9/2, BetVictor) - MORTON v Raith Rovers

This lad is one hell of a talent.  A midfielder player with an eye for goal, he can strike them from range or arrive in the box at the right time.  A recent free transfer from Blackburn, this 19 year old has already scored 3 in the last 4 games.  9/2 is superb value.

David Crawford (9/4, BetVictor) - ALBION ROVERS v Montrose

This 21 year old winger has a great goalscoring record of 12 in 35 games since joining Albion.  He also takes penalties and has scored 2 in the last 3 Albion games.
