BRIGHTON v BRENTFORD – Click here to bet
Brighton are currently 8th on the log, but with only 1 win in their last 8 matches. They went down 3-2 at Chelsea last time out
Brentford are 3 points behind them in 11th spot after a 3-1 home win over Luton on the weekend. That broke a run of 2 successive defeats admittedly against Arsenal and Liverpool.
An amazing stat in Brighton matches is that both teams have scored in their last 14 League games and you can get 6/10 that trend continues. That price is a bit short for me though and I am going to go for 4 goals or more in the game and hope for another 6 goal thriller like we got in this fixture last season.
Suggested Bet: Over 3.5 goals at 15/10
CRYSTAL PALACE v BOURNEMOUTH – Click here to bet
Palace are currently 12th on the log and they are without a win in their last 3 games. Last time out they drew 1-1 at West Ham and their last home game was a 3-2 defeat against Everton.
Bournemouth are 16th on the log with just 1 loss in their last 5 matches and they are undefeated in their last 3. They drew 2-2 at home to Villa last time out and their last away game was a 3-1 win over Sheffield United.
1 of the last 5 Bournemouth games have delivered profits for over 2.5 goal backers and 3 of the last Palace games have also reached the 3 goal mark.
Suggested Bet: Over 2.5 goals at 19/20

FULHAM v NOTTINGHAM – Click here to bet
Fulham are 14th on the log, 2 points and 1 position ahead of Nottingham. They have only won 1 of their last 6 matches and went down 4-3 away to Liverpool in a thriller on the weekend. Their last home game was a 3-2 win over Wolves and their last 3 games have all had 4 goals or more in them.
Nottingham have won 1 and lost 4 of their last 5 matches and they are on a 3 match losing streak including going down 1-0 at home to Everton on the weekend.
Fulham are 21/20 for the win, but I am going to stick to the goals markets here and look for 3 or more as Fulham’s last 3 games have each had at least 4 goals in them and 2 of Nottingham’s last 3 matches have had 5 goals in them.
Suggested Bet: Over 2.5 goals at 1/1
SHEFFIELD UNITED v LIVERPOOL – Click here to bet
Sheffield United are bottom of the table with only 1 win in 14 matches. They were hammered 5-0 at Burnley last time out and their last home game was a 3-1 defeat to Bournemouth.
Liverpool are 2nd on the log and undefeated in their last 8 League games. They beat Fulham 4-3 at home in their last start and their last away game was a 1-1 draw with Manchester City and Liverpool have drawn their last 3 away matches.
Sheffield United are 11/1 for the win, but I can’t look past a comfortable Liverpool victory and will back the visitors to win 3-0.
Suggested Bet: Correct Score, 0-3 at 7/1
ASTON VILLA v MANCHESTER CITY – Click here to bet
Aston Villa are 4th on the log with just 1 defeat in their last 10 matches. They drew 2-2 away at Bournemouth last time out and their last home game was a 3-1 win over Fulham.
Manchester City are 1 position above them in 3rd spot and while undefeated in their last 6 they have drawn their last 3 matches including a thriller 3-3 at home to Tottenham on the weekend. Their last home game was a 4-4 draw against Chelsea.
This fixture finished 1-1 last season and I am going to back an in-form Aston Villa to get something out of this one.
Suggested Bet: Handicap, Aston Villa +0.5 goals at 23/20
MANCHESTER UNITED v CHELSEA – Click here to bet
Manchester United are currently 7th on the log and saw a 3 match winning streak ended when they lost 1-0 at Newcastle on the weekend. 3 out of the last 4 Manchester United games would have delivered profits for under 2.5 goal backers.
Chelsea are 10th on the log after a 3-2 home win over Brighton on Sunday. That was the 4th consecutive Chelsea game to have 5 goals or more in it and 6 of their last 7 matches have delivered at least 4 goals in total.
United won this fixture 4-1 last season and I think the 16/10 we get 4 goals or more in this game is a cracking price.
Suggested Bet: Over 3.5 goals at 16/10
