WEST HAM v CRYSTAL PALACE – Click here to bet
West Ham are currently 9th on the log and they are coming off back-to-back victories 2-1 away at Burnley and 3-2 at home to Nottingham. All of West Ham’s last 6 matches have had 4 goals or more in them. Over 2.5 goal backers would have collected profits in 5 of those 6 games.
Crystal Palace are 13th on the log with 1 win and 4 defeats in their last 5 starts. They were close to 1/1 favourites last time away at Luton, but lost 2-1, but they have won 3 of their 7 away matches this season. Goals have also been flowing in Crystal Palace matches with 4 of the last 5 games reaching the 3 goal mark.
Crystal Palace did the double over West Ham last season winning 4-3 at home and 2-1 on the road.
Given West Ham’s recent run of high scoring games and the fact that 7 of the last 8 League meetings between the sides would have delivered profits for over 2.5 goal backers I am happy to bet that we get 3 goals or more in this one.
Suggested Bet: Over 2.5 goals at 19/20

BOURNEMOUTH v ASTON VILLA – Click here to bet
Bournemouth are currently 16th on the log with 3 wins and 2 defeats in their last 5 starts. They are coming off back-to-back away wins, away at Sheffield United and at home to Newcastle and although they have only won 2 of 7 home matches this season those have come in their last 2 starts.
Aston Villa are flying high and are 4th on the log with 4 wins and 1 loss in their last 5 matches. They beat Tottenham 2-1 away last time out and they have taken 10 points from a possible 21 on the road this season.
Bournemouth have beaten Aston Villa the last two meetings they have hosted in the EPL, but on current form I have to take 1/1 on offer that Villa bags the 3 points.
Suggested Bet: Aston Villa win at 1/1
MANCHESTER CITY v TOTTENHAM – Click here to bet
Manchester City are 2nd on the log, 1 point behind Arsenal with both teams having played 13 matches. They are undefeated in their last 5 matches, but are coming off back-to-back draws 1-1 at home to Liverpool and 4-4 away at Chelsea.
Tottenham were leading the EPL not long ago, but they have slumped to 3 successive defeats, most recently going down 2-1 at home to Aston Villa. Their last away game was a 2-1 defeat to Wolves, but they do have the best away record in the League with 4 wins and 2 draws from their 7 matches.
Manchester City won this fixture 4-2 last season and Tottenham won the reverse fixture 1-0.
City are the 3/10 favourites with the draw on offer at 11/2 and Tottenham, the rank outsiders, at 8/1.
Tottenham have leaked 8 goals in their last 3 matches and City have scored 11 goals in their last 3 games. I am going to back Manchester City to get 3 goals or more in this one.
Suggested Bet: Manchester City over 2.5 goals at 17/20
