The English Premier League concludes on Sunday and we suggest a bet in all 10 games.
Most of the season long markets have been decided, but there are still 3 teams trying to avoid relegation and two of them will go down.
Click here for the latest relegation betting and you can click here for the latest Outright Betting for the 2023/2024 season where Manchester City are trading as 13/20 favourites
Arsenal v Wolves – Click here to bet
Arsenal are certain to finish 2nd, but the end of their season has been disappointing and they lost away to Nottingham and at home to Brighton in their last two starts.
Wolves are 13th on the log and are coming off a 1-1 home draw against Everton. Their away form is poor though and they have only taken 1 point in their last 5 matches on the road and I am expecting Arsenal to sign off in some style here.
Suggested Bet: Handicap, Arsenal -1.5 at 19/20
Aston Villa v Brighton – Click here to bet
Aston Villa are 7th on the log, 4 points behind Brighton who sit 6th. Villa’s home form has been excellent and they have won their last 5 in a row with Brighton losing 3 of their last 5 on the road.
Anything above even money about Aston Villa is good enough for me.
Suggested Bet: Aston Villa win at 11/10
Brentford v Manchester City – Click here to bet
Brentford are 9th on the log with 4 wins out of their last 5 starts, most recently beating Tottenham 3-1 on the road.
Manchester City finally dropped their guard and drew 1-1 at Brighton last time out and prior to that they had reeled off 12 successive English Premier League wins.
City will have one eye on their big European Championship Final and I think Brentford can take advantage of this and cause an upset.
Suggested Bet: Brentford win at 29/10

Chelsea v Newcastle – Click here to bet
Chelsea are 12th on the log without a win in their last 3 games. On Thursday night they were beaten 4-1 on the road by Manchester United and they have only taken 2 points from the last 15 they have played for at home.
Newcastle are 4th on the log, 2 points behind United in 3rd. Their last match was a goalless draw at home to Leicester. Newcastle have an impressive away record losing just 3 times in 18 matches this season.
The last 7 times these teams have met only one of the teams has found the back of the net and I think we could be in for a scrappy, low scoring encounter here.
Suggested Bet: Both teams to score, NO, at 27/20
Crystal Palace v Nottingham – Click here to bet
Crystal Palace are 11th on the log at the time of writing and last time out drew 2-2 away at Fulham. They are unbeaten in their last 4 home starts winning 3 and drawing 1.
They face Nottingham who have climbed to 16th on the table after looking virtual certs for relegation at one point. It has been their home form that has carried them though and they have only won once on the road this season and with that in mind I make Crystal Palace to win one of my better bets of the weekend.
Suggested Bet: Crystal Palace win at 15/20
Everton v Bournemouth – Click here to bet
Everton are 17th on the log and currently sitting safe from relegation, but a loss here and a victory for either Leicester or Leeds and they could go down. They have only won 1 of their last 10 matches and that came away at Brighton and Everton have lost their last 3 home matches in a row.
Bournemouth are 15th on the log and assured another season of EPL action, that may explain why their recent form has been so poor and they have lost 3 in a row including an away defeat to Crystal Palace. That did break a run of 3 successive away victories, but I think Everton favours themselves here and I am backing them to win this one by more than a goal.
Suggested Bet: Handicap, Everton -1.5 at 12/10
Leeds v Tottenham – Click here to bet
Leeds are 19th on the log and need a victory to have any chance of avoiding relegation. They haven’t won in their last 8 matches during which time they have only taken 2 points and they face a Tottenham side that is sitting 8th and also not in great form having lost 3 of their last 4 and only won 1 of their last 7.
The bookies are struggling to separate these sides and I think the safer bet here is that we get goals and I am betting that we get 4 at least in this game.
Suggested Bet: Over 3.5 goals at 5/4
Leicester v West Ham – Click here to bet
Leicester need to win this match and hope Everton don’t win their game in order to avoid relegation. They have only won 1 of their last 10 matches and have only taken 3 points from the last 15 they have played for.
West Ham are 14th on the log and have won 2 of their last 3 games, but they have really struggled on the road of late, losing 3 in a row.
I think that Leicester can get the 3 points they are looking for although whether that will be enough is questionable.
Suggested Bet: Leicester win at 1/1
Manchester United v Fulham – Click here to bet
Manchester United have moved to 3rd on the log and have insured they will have Champions League football next season when they beat Chelsea 4-1 at home on Thursday night. That was their third successive victory and they have won their last 5 home matches.
Fulham are 10th on the log and have taken 7 points from the last 9 they have played for, most recently drawing 2-2 at home to Crystal Palace.
I think Manchester United will sign off with a victory to secure 3rd spot, but I think this could be a high scoring game.
Suggested Bet: Over 3.5 goals at 12/10
Southampton v Liverpool – Click here to bet
Southampton are bottom of the table and that is how it is going to finish. They have only taken 2 points from the last 30 they have played for and they have lost 5 in a row.
Liverpool are 5th on the log and that is where they are going to finish. They are undefeated in their last 10 League matches, but saw a 7 match winning streak ended when they drew 1-1 at home to Villa last time out.
This strikes me as a game that both sides would prefer not to play and I am not sure that we are going to get the goals that the bookies are forecasting. I am betting we get 3 goals or less in this one.
Suggested Bet: Under 3.5 goals at 17/20
