Benteke Back On A Roll
He has 3 in his last 3 and netted twice at Goodison in 2012-13.
It will be interesting to see how Everton react to a 4-0 drubbing at the hands of their arch rivals. But if there is any hangover, Christian Benteke will be primed to take full advantage; he is a best price 3/1 (Betfred) to score anytime at Goodison.
The big Belgian forward endured his first drought in English football in the latter part of 2013 but he’s bounced back in January. The 23-year-old now has three goals in his last three outings having netted against Arsenal, Liverpool and West Brom.
Villa generally will be on a high after their thrilling 4-3 victory over their west Midlands rivals on Wednesday night and Benteke is back at the heart of everything. He’ll also have fond memories of this fixture having bagged a brace here last season.
