Argentina v Switzerland Tip: Goalscoring Xherdanty
Averages 5.3 shots per game, making him more trigger happy than Lionel Messi but also has quality to boot.
Lionel Messi is the star attraction in the Argentina v Switzerland game but at 8/11 (Bet365) he is short enough in the anytime goalscorer market. Instead the value is found backing the Swiss equivalent.
Xherdan Shaqiri has three goals in this World Cup, one less than Messi but he has actually out shot his illustrious opponent.
The 22-year-old is averaging 5.3 shots per game, making him the fourth most frequent shooter in the tournament.
It’s not like he is taking pot-shots either. Of his 16 shots, six have come from inside the box and seven have been on target.
The Bayern Munich forward averages 0.46 goals per 90 minutes for his national side and is a big price at 4/1 (Betfred) to find the net anytime.
