Enner Valencia and Kai Havertz lead today's goalscorer projections on Saturday, June 20.

World Cup betting rolls on Saturday, June 20th, with four Group E and Group F showdowns on the slate,  and the goalscorer props market is wide open. Germany, the tournament's highest-scoring team after their stunning 7-goal opening match barrage, are back in action against Ivory Coast. So is Ecuador who will face the Curaçao side that conceded those seven goals in a single game. It's a dream setup for targeting individual scorers, and we're using Dimers Pro data to do exactly that.

We're using the Dimers Pro data to look at three different ways to bet on the day's top goalscorer targets in those matches, each as a different World Cup parlay.

The three ways to bet on today's top scorers are: an anytime goalscorer parlay, a first goalscorer parlay, and a 2+ goals parlay.

These goalscorer picks come from the same Dimers models that cashed this superstar goalscorer parlay in the first batch of group stage matches. By pairing Dimers' World Cup predictions with our World Cup player projections, we can make use of every datapoint available. As always, please gamble responsibly.


Three ways to parlay today's top World Cup goalscorers

Enner Valencia & Kai Havertz anytime goalscorer parlay (+302)

The simplest of the three plays: back both Enner Valencia of Ecuador and Kai Havertz of Germany to score at any point in their respective matches.

Valencia is the highest-projected scorer on today's slate at 47.3% against a Curaçao defense that just gave up seven. Valencia is the team captain and all-time leading scorer, one shy of 50 international goals.

Havertz checks in at 36.8% in a Germany side that projects to dominate Ivory Coast again offensively in a game with a high 3.5-goal total.

Valencia & Havertz first goalscorer parlay (+2104)

Let's move to the higher risk, higher reward plays.

Valencia's 19.7% first-goalscorer projection and Havertz's 14.4% probability also make them the two most likely players to open the scoring in their respective match.

Though Valencia took just 1 shot in Ecuador's opener, he'll likely have more opportunities against the vulnerable Curacao defense, and his high probability points to a greater chance of success.

Make it a round robin: By adding a top first-goalscorer projection from the Tunisia vs. Japan midnight game, you can give yourself the chance to cash in if just two players score first.

Valencia & Havertz  2+ goals parlay (+2975)

For bettors who want to target multi-goal performances, Valencia's 13.5% two-or-more goals projection stands out against a Curaçao side that is clearly struggling to keep the ball out of their net and is the highest of the day for all players.

On the Germany side of things, Havertz gets a 7.9% probability to score multiple goals as he did in the opener, and three of our five most likely correct scores see Germany net at least 2 goals.

Make it a round robin: As with the first-goalscorer play, you can bring in a brace projection from Tunisia vs. Japan to build a Round Robin, protecting yourself with a payout on any two legs rather than needing a perfect sweep. Tunisia allowed 5 goals in their opener vs. Sweden, setting up Japan's top options for a multi-goal chance.


Today's World Cup goalscorer parlay options - June 20

To round up the data above, here are the three different ways to parlay today's top two goalscorer options:

⚽ Havertz (GER) & Valencia (ECU) anytime goal: +302

⚽ Havertz (GER) & Valencia (ECU) score first goal: +2104

⚽ Havertz (GER) & Valencia (ECU) score 2+ goals: +2975
