Top of the Props: Kramaric to fight off Faroes, Kimmich’s attacking freedom & McTominyay for Scots

Andrej Kramaric 2+ shots on target for Croatia vs Faroe Islands – 19/20 – Ladbrokes

Victory on Friday evening will secure Croatia’s pathway to North America next summer and having beaten Faroe Islands away and won all three of their home qualifiers, they’ll be confident of doing so in style. 

If they’re to do so, striker Andrej Kramaric will likely play a central role having netted six goals in this campaign.

The Hoffenheim forward has averaged 2.27 shots on target per 90 in qualifying, landing this bet in four of six appearances, including the reverse fixture where he scored the winner with one of three efforts on goal. 

The Faroes have had an excellent qualification campaign of their own and can still make it to next summer’s showpiece event. However, their concession of 4.67 shots on target per game on the road will likely play a part in them falling short. 

In the previous meeting with Croatia, their goalkeeper was worked on eight occasions and whilst their efforts have been valiant, a trip to Rijeka will likely be a bridge too far with the hosts superior quality set to show. 

Joshua Kimmich 1+ shots on target for Germany vs Luxembourg – 11/10 – Ladbrokes

Another nation with a tough task ahead of them is Luxembourg who entertain group leaders Germany without a point to their name. 

The hosts were comfortably seen off 4-0 in the reverse fixture in October and having shipped eight efforts on target in that game, we can expect the Germans to rack up a scoreline once more.

In the aforementioned meeting, right back Joshua Kimmich was afforded the freedom to get forward at will and fired off five shots, finding the target with four of them and the back of the net twice.

The Bayern Munich utility player has now had an effort on goal in five of his last eight games for his country and is also on penalties as an added bonus for this bet. 

With Germany likely to be dominant once more and Kimmich in good shooting form for his country, this looks a generous price for him to trouble the goalkeeper once more. 

Scott McTominay 2+ total shots for Scotland vs Greece – 10/11 – Ladbrokes

Having already guaranteed themselves at least a play-off spot, Scotland will be looking for three points against Greece to set-up a winner-takes-all clash with Denmark in the final group game. 

The Greeks cannot qualify and so the visitors should be looking to attack at will to get a result, which makes talisman Scott McTominay’s price for two shots an appealing one. 

The Napoli midfielder, who is trying to land back-to-back Scudetto’s as well as help take Scotland to the World Cup, had landed this bet in seven consecutive games before his blank in the reverse fixture. 

However, his nine shots against Greece across their Nations League play-offs in March suggest he’s more than capable of pulling the trigger against them.

Greece will be disappointed to have missed out on a place in North America, however, their concession of 11.5 shots per game in qualifying where they’ve shipped 10 goals in four games emphasises how their problems lie in defence. 

Denmark opened them up with ease when they came to visit and managed 15 shots and whilst Scotland only managed eight efforts against them in Glasgow. 

They’ve got a lot more freedom to attack in this game which should help McTominay’s shots.
