Despite playing in a more defensive role at right back for much of this season, Tomoki Iwata is still getting his fair share of shots in with an average of 1.51 shots per 90. The Japanese utility player has needed no encouragement to pull the trigger in recent weeks, landing this bet in six of his last seven starts, across which he’s fired in 16 efforts at goal. 

Despite an excellent run of four wins from their last five away games, Derby are conceding 13.3 shots per game on their travels. The Rams had a comfortable win at Sheffield Wednesday in their last away game but prior to that, they gave up 21 shots at Middlesbrough and with Birmingham desperate to get back on track, they and Iwata should be looking to shoot on sight.

A big part of Derby’s excellent form has been the performances of Bobby Clark who has upped his attacking productivity in recent weeks with 12 shots in his last four appearances. The Liverpool loanee is averaging 1.41 shots per 90 across the season as a whole and is clearly hunting his first league goal for the Rams having cashed this bet in eight of his last 10 league games. 

Having not won in their last four, confidence has been dented at St Andrews and Birmingham’s concession of 20 shots last time out at Sheffield United demonstrated fragility at the back. Six of those shots came from Blades central midfielders and with Clark happy to shoot from range, he looks one of the most likely beneficiaries of Blues’ recent woes.

This is by far the longest odds fold of the acca. You can take it out and back the four-fold at around 4/1 if you'd prefer.

Swansea left back Josh Tymon has clearly been instructed to get involved in the final third more regularly under Vitor Matos and his record of eight shots in his last four starts is strong evidence to support this theory. The majority of those shots have come from outside the box, demonstrating that Tymon only needs a sight of goal to try his luck and given that Swans will likely be restricted to efforts from range here, he feels generously priced. 

League leaders Coventry have wobbled in recent weeks and despite their six-point lead at the top of the Championship standings, they’ve been far from solid defensively. They conceded 15 shots in their last home game, a 1-0 win over Bristol City.

Oxford have long been major threats from set pieces under Gary Rowett and in Ciaran Brown, they have an aerially dominant target from restarts. The centre back has been consistently getting on the end of U’s set play routines, with an average of 0.93 shots per 90 and 10 efforts at goal across his last six starts. 

Saints are starting to march under Tonda Eckert but have allowed their opponents to take 13.29 shots per game on their travels this season, with each of their last six hosting sides hitting double figures. They’re giving up 4.27 shots from set pieces per game with opposition centre backs allowed 12 attempts at goal in their last five matches and with Brown in such good shooting form, he can take advantage of their flimsy dead ball defending.

Newcastle midfielder Bruno Guimaraes is another player who has been prolific in terms of shooting, taking 1.49 per 90 in the Premier League this season. The Brazilian has been particularly consistent in away games with eight shots in his last five starts and having found the back of the net with one of three shots the last time these sides met, he’ll be looking forward to facing them again. 

Man Utd continue to frustrate under Ruben Amorim and with only one clean sheet in their last 10 league games, their defensive issues are obvious. Guimaraes has landed this bet in seven of his eight games against Man Utd.
