Premier League

Manchester City vs Southampton I am betting Southampton +2.75 here today which feels like a very brave bet considering what Man City done last weekend against Manchester United, it is a difficult one to reason out but i'll give it a go, Southampton are a lower half competitive team, I think it is an ask even for the likes of City to blow them out of the water and win by 4 goals for this bet to lose in its entirety. Two results which would give me hope for the Saints today was their games against Palace and Villa, 2…

Everton v Boreham Wood I am betting under 3.25 goals here in this FA cup match, Boreham Wood play in level 5 of the English league but they are a very well organised side. In their league matches 30 of their 27 matches have contained 2 goals or fewer while only 5 games have contained 4 or more goals. They have conceded 5 goals fewer than anybody else in their league this season and 10 goals fewer than the 3rd best defensive side in the national league. Everton are sure to make changes for the game, they have a massive…

Brentford v Manchester United I am betting Brentford here in a game where neither side are overly impressing of late but Brentford have beaten Arsenal, drawn with Liverpool and only lost 1-0 to Manchester City at home so I think they can give this United team a game of it who have put in some awful performances this season. United should have a stronger team out tonight than they diod at Villa at the weekend but Brentford +0.75 feels too big at home given some of their performances there, they were a fair bit 2nd best away to Liverpool on…

Liverpool vs Brentford I am betting Liverpool -1.5 goals; they are without some key players in Salah and Mane but they should have too much for Brentford at home and I believe the loss of both those players as well midfielder Thiago is factored into the odds. Brentford for me of late are starting to look like a side that have overachieved in the first half of the season, they were very fortunate to beat Villa at home and then they were destroyed by Southampton midweek and if you are getting beaten 4-1 by the Saints then you are going…

Newcastle Utd vs Watford I am betting Newcastle today v Watford and over 2.5 goals to be scored, they signed well during the week bringing in new players in Chris Wood from Burnley and Kieran Trippier from Atletico Madrid, Watford go into this match without key man Ismaila Sarr who is out while their other key player Emmanuel Dennis is a doubt although he should play. Newcastle suffered a disappointing loss in the cup last weekend at home to Cambridge United of League one so they will be eager to bounce back but it is not like they are taking…

West Ham v Norwich City I am going to bet Norwich, it's a bit of risk betting Norwich but they have recently got a lot of players back from injury and covid, at the weekend Tim Krul, Grant Hanley, Milot Rashica and Teemu Pukki all returned and as well as that West Ham coach David Moyes was very coy in regard to the question if they had new covid cases in their squad. Given Norwich's record this season it is a leap of faith to bet them away to West Ham but West ham were only just ok in a…

Manchester United vs Wolverhampton Wanderers I am betting Wolves +1 and Under 2.5 goals scored here this evening, Wolves are a side that showed they are very capable of defending against the best teams, they were holding Manchester City well with only 10 men when a controversial penalty was given against them, they even had a chance at the end to level the game though Saiss, they also held Liverpool until the last kick of the game in a another narrow 1-0 defeat. I am also starting to think that maybe United faced a Burnley team who are much worse…

Brentford vs Aston Villa I am betting Brentford here, they are dealing with a lot of injuries at present but they played an excellent game at home to Manchester City in their last match and should welcome back centre half Ajer and midfielder Norgaard which are certainly positives. On the other hand, Villa looked poor in their match v Chelsea and they too are missing players with captain Tyrone Mings being suspended today and Leon Bailey still out injured. Aston Villa have won 3 of their last 9 away from home and I do believe they will struggle as favourites…

Manchester United vs Burnley I am betting Burnley here today, it is always tricky betting a team when you know they have some potentially new covid cases but the market has drifted quite a bit and it did sound from Sean Dyche that Burnley had not a lot of cases and as well some of those PCR tests that they are waiting to get the results from may come back negative. In addition, there was a video released that showed Burnley training and most of their key players were training in it which is a positive. United have been dreadful…

Chelsea v Brighton I am betting Chelsea -1.25 tonight at home to Brighton, They seemed to have turned a corner after their Villa win and it was a convincing win too, it saw Lukaku come back into the team in the 2nd half and he was impressive. He is a striker most teams struggle to handle to be fair and I can see Brighton having issues tonight trying to marshal and Brighton have a doubt over one of their key men Leandro Trossard. Brighton for me are not playing well in games, last season they were the king of the…
