Big Splash: Liverpool and Man Utd clash primed for BTTS refund

Ladbrokes’ latest Big Splash money back special will see all losing first goalscorer, correct score and scorecast bets refunded if both teams score when Liverpool host Manchester United in the Premier League.

Four of the past five Anfield clashes between these football giants have seen each trouble the scoreboard operator,  so you can delve head first into a tasty side bet in the knowledge that a returned stake, at worst, is likely.

Here are a few bets we fancy in those markets:

First goal

Visiting striker Wayne Rooney is too good to ignore at 6/1 for an opener, after the United and England captain bagged the last in the 3-0 win at home to Spurs last time out, and his side’s effort in the 2-1 FA Cup loss against Arsenal at Old Trafford.

He also scored the opener in front of the faithful when United won 3-0 earlier this term.

For the hosts, Jordan Henderson has three goals in his past four matches, all of them openers. He looks a colossal price at 14/1 for another deadlock breaker.

Correct score

Brendan Rodgers’ side have scored exactly twice in five of their past 11 Anfield fixtures and have won three of their past 11 matches all told by two goals to one.

Louis van Gaal’s men have lost two of their past five all-competition fixtures, both of them 2-1, and five of their seven reverses under the Dutchman have been by a single goal.

With that in mind, a tight 2-1 to Liverpool gets the nod on Merseyside at 15/2.

Scorecast

Jordan Henderson to score first, Liverpool to win 2-1 at 75/1.
