2010 WORLD CUP ENGLAND VS USA GOALSCORER BETTING ODDS AND SELECTIONS

Wayne Rooney is the biggest favourite to score in the England vs USA match on Saturday with popular bookmaker Blue Square pricing Rooney at a 1.73 price tag to score anytime. Wayne Rooney is 4.5 to score two goals or more while he is priced at 17.0 to score a hat-trick.

You can back a score/win double with Wayne Rooney to score and England to win at a 2.37 price. Rooney is 4.5 to score the first goal as well.
Interestingly enough, the first goal is favoured to be a shot from inside the penalty box at 1.73 while a header trades at 4.33. A shot from outside the penalty box is priced at 5.5 while a penalty to be the first goal is listed at 12.0. A direct free-kick or corner pays 19.0 while the odds on an own goal being the first one in England vs USA is priced at 23.0.
England’s second favourite goalscorer is Peter Crouch, who is listed at a 7.0 price to score the first goal. He is 2.37 to score at anytime and it seems as though the bookmakers expect Crouch to start up front alongside Wayne Rooney. Crouchy used to be at the same price as Jermain Defoe, but Defoe’s odds have crept up overnight. You’ll find Jermaine Defoe at a 2.5 price to score anytime and odds of 7.5 to score first.
Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard are both well-priced with Lampard the preferred goalscorer as he’s expected to play a more attacking role. You’ll find him at 2.87 anytime while Steven Gerrard is sitting at 3.25.
Aaron Lennon is one to keep your eyes on at 5.0 while Joe Cole looks like he’s coming back into form and is available at 4.5. Ledley King is a very solid 12.0 to score at anytime but I like him at 41.0 to score first or last.
The Americans will be looking to Landon Donovan at a 3.75 price anytime while Jozy Altidore and Clint Dempsey can both be backed at 4.0. Robbie Finley and Edson Buddle are at 4.5. Landon Donovan to score two goals or more pays 26.0 and he’s at 81.0 to hit a hat trick against England.
I think Rooney will get the job done in front of goal and I also think that Peter Crouch could produce some heroics. I do like Ledley King to score as well and I think a small bet on him could pay some very big dividends.
