• Manchester City -0.5 — min odds 1.93
• Over 3.25 goals (Man City vs Liverpool) — min odds 1.95

Aston Villa vs Bournemouth

Tip: Bournemouth +0.25 (min odds 1.85)

Rationale: Bournemouth travel to Villa Park as the underdog, but the numbers and recent form suggest value on the +0.25 Asian handicap. Bournemouth’s only defeats this season came against Manchester City and Liverpool, and their loss to Liverpool was arguably unlucky. They have shown resilience away from home and can frustrate teams that do not create many high-quality chances.

Aston Villa have improved in spells but still look vulnerable. Their expected goals (xG) numbers are low compared with other teams, and recent defensive performances have been leaky — underlying metrics suggest Villa have conceded more chances than their results indicate. With Bournemouth able to grind out results and the Cup of margins in play, the +0.25 handicap offers protection: half the stake returned on a one-goal loss, and a full win if Bournemouth draw or win outright.

Manchester City vs Liverpool

Tip 1: Manchester City -0.5 (min odds 1.93)

Tip 2: Over 3.25 goals (min odds 1.95)

Rationale: This fixture typically produces open, high-intensity football. City need to keep pressure on title rivals and will push to control the game, while Liverpool remain a potent attacking threat even if some defensive questions persist. City looked very sharp in their recent league outing and are strong at home; backing City -0.5 reflects confidence they can win by a clear margin.

The expectation of an open game also supports an over market. Both sides have attacking quality and are capable of producing multiple goals in a single match. Over 3.25 gives a buffer compared with standard over/under lines: it requires at least four goals for a full win, with a half win if there are exactly four. Given the likely intensity and attacking intent on both sides, the market for goals looks attractive.
