Targeting Serie A goals looks to be a profitable market this week! My European soccer weekly review is back as European club soccer made its return after the international break this weekend. 

We still have a few games left to play on Monday but I will be reviewing the key trends and statistics from the games over the weekend. The Champions League group stages get underway midweek too so I am sure we are all excited for Europe’s top club competition to get started. 

Manchester City, Inter and Real Madrid are the only three teams left across Europe’s top five leagues to maintain their 100% records to start the new season. These three teams look set to have strong campaigns. 

Check out my European soccer weekly review below to find out all of the results, key stats and betting trends from the weekend’s fixtures. Plenty of Serie A goals went in over the weekend so that looks like a profitable trend.

European Soccer Weekly Review – Target Serie A Goals

My weekly European soccer review will provide Sports Hub with plenty of useful information needed to bet on soccer. It’s a good idea that you keep track of all the latest developments so it makes it easier to turn profits. 

Research is incredibly important when betting. You need to understand the situation and context if you want to consistently make money. That’s why we are providing content like this for Sports Hub’s users. 

Euro Soccer Betting Trends – Serie A Goals Looks Profitable

Another European soccer league that has been filled with goals recently is Serie A. We have seen an abundance of Serie A goals over the weekend, with 75% of games seeing both teams score and over 2.5 goals. 60% of Serie A games during Matchday 3 also saw over 2.5 goals so it seems to be a consistent trend. 

  • Inter (13), Roma (11), Fiorentina (9), Juventus (9), Milan (9) are Serie A’s highest scorers 
  • Empoli (12), Fiorentina (9), Sassuolo (9) have conceded the most amount of goals in Serie A 
  • Empoli (0), Cagliari (1), Udinese (1), Torino (2) are the league’s lowest scorers 
  • Inter (1) and Juventus (2) have conceded the fewest goals 
  • Fiorentina, Lecce, Lazio, Napoli, Roma, Frosinone and Milan have the best both teams to score record in the league (75%)
  • Fiorentina and Roma both have 100% over 2.5 Serie A goals records 
  • Lazio, Atalanta, Frosinone, Milan and Napoli all have 75% over 2.5 goals records

Fiorentina have allowed plenty of goals at both ends of the pitch so far this term, scoring nine and conceding nine across their four matches. With them having a 100% record of seeing over 2.5 goals go in during their games this season, they could be a good team to target. 

Teams such as Roma, Napoli, Milan, Frosinone and Lazio also look like good contenders since they are seeing high numbers in both the both teams to score and over 2.5 goals markets. 

Continue Targeting Bundesliga Goals

Bettors who have been reading my weekly reviews will know I have been hot on the Bundesliga goals markets. And for good reason too. The overs continue to hit every single week. Back the over in Bundesliga goals!

88.89% of Bundesliga games during Matchday 4 saw both teams score and over 2.5 goals. It is one of the most common trends across European soccer each week. The sportsbooks are starting to wise up and adjust their prices and markets. 

Therefore, we may have to start taking it up a gear and looking at the over 3.5 goals market. However, don’t worry, 66.67% of Bundesliga matches saw over 3.5 goals go in during Matchday 4 too. Make sure you’re still backing the over in Bundesliga goals.
