Premier League Betting Tips: Cherries and Hornets set for goals?
Published:
From Brighton’s crucial trip to Wolves, to West Ham’s seventh-place battle with Leicester City and a potential goal-fest on the South Coast, it’s a busy Saturday afternoon in the Premier League.
There’s also the small matter of a rematch between Manchester City and Spurs, a fixture we’ve previewed here. For the rest of the day’s matches, get stuck right in with our Premier League Tips.
AFC Bournemouth v Fulham
Fulhampicked up their first win since January last weekend. We’d be surprised if theyfollowed that up with another on the South Coast. Put simply, the Cottagershave the worst away record in the Premier League.
EvenHuddersfield have taken more points on the road. That makes a Bournemouth sidewho won 5-0 last weekend an interestingproposition at 4/6, while it’s 13/5about a Cherries Win and Over 3.5 Goals.
Callum Wilson offers the main goal threat and is 4/1to Score 2 or More.
Huddersfield Town v Watford
The onlysides Huddersfield have beaten this season are Wolves and Fulham. That doesn’tbode well for the visit of Watford. The Hornets are free-scoring, especiallyaway from home, and are 5/6to win outright.
Troy Deeney’s absence should allow Gerard Deulofeu back in. He’s been deadly when given the chance, with six goals in his last eight matches. We go 9/5 about him Anytime, while it’s 9/4 for Watford to Win to Nil.
West Ham v Leicester City
Is thereanything more exciting than the battle for seventh? Probably. But this onestill looks like an Easter cracker at the London Stadium. The sides are incontrasting form but fairly matched in terms of quality.
That couldlend itself to a third draw in four meetings betweenthe teams at 5/2. Jamie Vardyis the obvious goalscorer pick at Evens,although the impressive YouriTielemans is in decent nick and is a 7/2 chance.
Two excitingattacking outfits could also reward BothTeams to Score backers at 4/7.
Wolves v Brighton & Hove Albion
It’sdifficult to assess this one. On paper you’d say Wolves should win at 3/4, but there’s a sense the Old Goldmight not yet be over their FA Cup heartbreak. Could that let in Brighton at 17/4, or the Drawat 23/10?
All we knowis these two don’t tend to produce goals. Each of the last eight meetings haveseen Under 2.5 Goals (4/7), whilethe last five have all returned BothTeams to Score – No at 4/6.
Newcastle v Southampton
Southampton’sgood recent run has probably secured their safety. And it’s a good job too. TheSaints have only won once up at Newcastle since Matt Le Tissier struck in a 1-0success all the way back in 1997.
The Magpies are 7/5 for all three points here, with Ayoze Perez a 5/2 chance to follow up his goal at Leicester with his ninth of the season. Nathan Redmond netted twice last weekend is 7/2 to bag once again.
