Relight His Fire
Remarkably, Mitrovic has had the most shots of any player in the Premier League, including 8 on Boxing Day. He's not doing much wrong and one moment could spark another goal glut for the Serbian.
Aleksandar Mitrovic is having a frustrating time of things at the moment but he’s still got time to make it a great personal campaign having netted 13 times in 24 appearances for club and country since August.
The good news is that he’s still getting himself in dangerous positions, and then some. On Boxing Day he had 8 attempts on goal against a defensively stubborn Wolves; he just needs a bit of luck then the floodgates can open again.
I’m confident enough that this is the case to boldly advise backing him to score 2 goals or more at home to Huddersfield on Saturday at best odds of 9/1 with Bet365.
The 24-year-old has already bagged four braces for Fulham and Serbia in 2018-19 and the two for his club came in fixtures with similar profiles to this one. Both were at Craven Cottage, and the opponents were Burnley and Southampton.
Huddersfield are in that category and just as desperate for a victory. That means they won’t sit back and Mitro can get back on track in style.
