Watkins' Form Boosts Betting Value for England Squad

Aston Villa's recent victory over Liverpool, which secured their Champions League spot, has spotlighted Ollie Watkins as the most in-form English striker. Scoring two goals in this match, Watkins has netted 12 Premier League goals this season, with nine of those coming since being omitted from the England squad in March. This resurgence in form not only raises his profile for national selection but also impacts his betting value significantly for those wagering on player performance and squad inclusions.

Watkins' scoring streak positions him ahead of other contenders, including Harry Kane, who has ten goals in the same timeframe. With his total of 19 goals in all competitions, bettors should note that he is currently five goals ahead of both Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Danny Welbeck, making him a standout choice for those looking to bet on player performance metrics. As the World Cup approaches, his impressive form could influence betting markets related to player selections and potential contributions during the tournament.
