💎 Gem Bet: Sammie Szmodics 2+ Shots @ 1.61 (bet365)

Sammie Szmodics is a really capable player at this level and showed glimpses of that quality after making the move from Ipswich halfway through the campaign.

He went on to score three goals across his 13 appearances for Derby in the Championship, notably taking 44 shots across his 21 starts across both clubs (2.21 per 90).

Szmodics has started this season well too having scored against Lincoln in the EFL Cup last week, managing 2+ shots in that contest - both of which found the target. 

Szmodics scored 27 goals in the Championship back in the 23/24 campaign, showing his quality in front of goal at this level. He took 145 shots in that campaign, working out to an average of 3.34 shots per 90. 

Derby are facing a Charlton side who are expected to be in a relegation battle this season and will sit deep for large periods of the contest, which aids our chances of seeing Szmodics have a few effects as he isn’t afraid to take aim from distance.

Derby managed 15+ shots in both head to head meetings against Charlton last season, and another healthy shot count is likely to be on the cards for the away side who can look to Szmodics to be a key player this term.

There’s decent value with this angle when backing on Bet365, the exact same selection is priced as low as 1.17 with other leading bookmakers.
