They&#8217;re averaging 4.8 goals per game on the road. Nope, not a typo. Yes, almost five goals per game.<\/p>\n<p>The markets are fully aligned for goals in this one though, which naturally pushes us toward the anytime goalscorer angle.<\/p>\n<p>And who better to target than Kaoru Mitoma? The Japanese winger is starting to look like his old sparky, nightmare-for-defenders self. His movement, bursts in behind and instinct for goal are all back in evidence &#8211; as shown by his goal vs Manchester City.<\/p>\n<p>History gives us even more confidence. Mitoma has scored five goals in his last six games against Bournemouth &#8211; that bit of a psychological edge over the opposition isn&#8217;t factored into the prices at 5\/2 with Sky Bet.<\/p>\n<p>SCORE PREDICTION: 3-2 | JONES KNOWS&#8217; BET BET: Karou Mitoma to score (5\/2 with Sky Bet)<br \/>\n  Jones Knows&#8217; Profit &amp; Loss record 25\/26<\/p>\n<p>            Best Bet singles (1 unit)<br \/>\n            Best Bet multiples<br \/>\n            Total P+L<\/p>\n<p>            Matchday One<br \/>\n            0<br \/>\n            -1<br \/>\n            -1<\/p>\n<p>            Matchday Two<br \/>\n            0<br \/>\n            -1<br \/>\n            -2<\/p>\n<p>            Matchday Three<br \/>\n            0<br \/>\n            -1<br \/>\n            -3<\/p>\n<p>            Matchday Four<br \/>\n            0<br \/>\n            -1<br \/>\n            -4<\/p>\n<p>            Matchday Five<br \/>\n            +2.75<br \/>\n            -1<br \/>\n            -2.75<\/p>\n<p>            Matchday Six<br \/>\n            -1<br \/>\n            -1<br \/>\n            -4.75<\/p>\n<p>            Matchday Seven<br \/>\n            -1<br \/>\n            0<br \/>\n            -5.75<\/p>\n<p>            Matchday Eight<br \/>\n            -3<br \/>\n            0<br \/>\n            -8.75<\/p>\n<p>            Matchday Nine<br \/>\n            0<br \/>\n            -1<br \/>\n            -9.75<\/p>\n<p>            Matchday 10<br \/>\n            -1<br \/>\n            -1<br \/>\n            -11.75<\/p>\n<p>            Matchday 11<br \/>\n            -1<br \/>\n            0<br \/>\n            -12.75<\/p>\n<p>            Matchday 12<br \/>\n            -1<br \/>\n            -1<br \/>\n            -14.75<\/p>\n<p>            Matchday 13<br \/>\n            -2<br \/>\n            0<br \/>\n            -16.75<\/p>\n<p>            Matchday 14<br \/>\n            -1<br \/>\n            -2<br \/>\n            -19.75<\/p>\n<p>            Matchday 15<br \/>\n            0<br \/>\n            -1<br \/>\n            -20.75<\/p>\n<p>            Matchday 16<br \/>\n            0<br \/>\n            -1<br \/>\n            -21.75<\/p>\n<p>            Matchday 17<br \/>\n            0<br \/>\n            -1<br \/>\n            -22.75<\/p>\n<p>            Matchday 18<br \/>\n            0<br \/>\n            -1<br \/>\n            -23.75<\/p>\n<p>            Matchday 19<br \/>\n            0<br \/>\n            -1<br \/>\n            -24.75<\/p>\n<p>            Matchday 20<br \/>\n            -1<br \/>\n            &#8211;<br \/>\n            -25.75<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Our football betting expert Jones Knows provides his insight across the Premier League weekend.
