Nottingham Forest v Middlesbrough: Saturday 12.30 – Christian Stuani to score first @ 5/1

The former Espanyol forward has taken to life in England extremely well, smashing seven goals i nninegames for Boro already this season.

The Uruguayan has netted first in two of his last four games and will lead the line as the Smoggies look to go top of the table. A chance to potentially get odds of 10/1 on this guy to net first should not be passed up.

Chelsea v Arsenal: Saturday at 12.45 – Theo Walcott to score first @ 6/1

Walcott is something of a forgotten man at Arsenal at times, but if the England man played almost anywhere else he’d be deemed one of the league’s biggest goal threats.

The England man has netted four goals in his last three games for club and country and will look to stick the boot in as Arsenal head to Stamford Bridge to inflict further domestic pain on their City rivals.

Three of the four clubs Walcott has been most prolific against are based in London and with five career goals against Chelsea he clearly likes leaving the Blues, well, blue!

Tottenham v Crystal Palace: Sunday 13:30 – Son Heung-Min to score first @ 6/1

With Harry Kane struggling to hit the heights of last year Tottenham have been in desperate need for some firepower in attack. Step forward Son Heung-Min.

The South Korean netted a brace in the Europa League on Thursday to open his Spurs’ account and suddenly the signs are positive for the man who netted 14 Bundesliga goals last season.
