WILLIAM HILL are betting on what the final average tally for goals per game in Premiership matches will be this season, and offer 11/1 that it will be over 2.9 per game.’There have been goals galore in the Prem so far this season but we think the ultimate average per game is likely to be between 2.61 and 2.7, so we make that range our 6/4 favourite’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

WILLIAM HILL have opened a book on how many Premiership goals Arsenal will score this season and offer 5/6 80 or more; 5/6 79 or fewer.

The Gunners are 14/1 with Hills to score 100 or more Prem goals. ‘It has been goals galore for the Gunners at home and if they can keep them flowing 100 should be within their capabilities’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

With the Arsenal-Blackburn match clocking up a new highest aggregate of the Prem season so far, 8 goals, Hills offer 2/5 that no game this season will produce 9 or more; 5/2 that 9 will be the highest aggregate of the Prem season; 9/1 that 10 will be the highest aggregate; 20/1 that 11 or more will be highest aggregate.
