THE BOOKIES ODDS
Here we look at one of the bookies anytime goal scoring odds. I’ve tried to only put players in who have some gametime security. It’s the return for £1 invested. Odds are as of Saturday late morning and remember they assume the player starts and don’t count assist potential.
£1.36 – Kane
£1.44 – Jesus
£1.80 – Alli
£1.85 – Lacazette
£1.91 – Sanchez and Sane
£2.00 -Hazard
£2.05 – Sterling
£2.10 – Lukaku
£2.15 – Vardy

Here’s the summary of the other main advice polls. It’s worth noting that site 1 is the site with the most traffic
