BettingDiaryThere are 5 English Premier League matches taking place on Saturday and we take a look at each of them from a betting angle.

 

 

 

 

WOLVES v WEST BROM – Click here to bet

Wolves are currently 14th on the log and without a win in their last 5 matches. Their last home game was a 2-1 defeat to Everton and both teams have scored in 5 of the last 6 Wolves matches.

West Brom are 19th on the log and they haven't won in their last 7 EPL matches, most recently getting hammered at home 4-0 by Arsenal and 5-0 by Leeds. Their last away game will give some hope, it was a 1-1 draw at Liverpool.

BETTING

Wolves 13/20

Draw 11/4

West Brom 21/4

Suggested Bet: Both teams to score, YES, at 5/4.

For me West Brom are the sort of side who might do better on the road when there is less pressure on them to attack and I can see them grabbing a goal and the trend of both teams scoring in Wolves matches looks worth following at the price.

 

 

LEEDS v BRIGHTON – Click here to bet

Leeds are 12th on the table and they are coming off a 3-0 away defeat at Tottenham. At home this season they have won 3 and drawn 2 of their 8 matches and they have won their last 2 home games against Burnley and Newcastle. Leeds have played in some high scoring games and 8 of their 17 matches this season have had 4 goals or more in them.

Brighton are 17th on the table and are coming off a 1-0 defeat away at Manchester City in midweek, that took their run without a Premier League victory to 9 matches and they have only taken 2 points from the last 12 they have played for on the road.

 

BETTING

Leeds 11/10

Draw 53/20

Brighton 12/5

                                                                                                                                                    

Suggested Bet: Over 3.5 goals at 14/10

Goals tend to flow in Leeds games and while I am tempted by the 11/10 that they win the match I think the value lies in another high scoring encounter here.

WEST HAM v BURNLEY - Click here to bet

West Ham are 10th on the table and they are coming off a 1-0 away win over Everton. At home they have won 3 and drawn 3 from their 8 games this season, but they haven't won in their 3 last home games.

Burnley are 16th on the log and have moved up the table winning 2 of their last 4 matches. 6 of their last 7 games have delivered for under 2.5 goal backers.

 

BETTING

West Ham 8/10

Draw 26/10

Burnley 37/10

Suggested Bet: Handicap, West Ham United (-1), the draw at 53/20

For this bet to arrive we need West Ham to win by 1 goal exactly and I am backing them to reverse the outcome of this fixture last season when Burnley won 1-0.

 

FULHAM v CHELSEA – Click here to bet

Fulham are 18th on the log and have drawn their last 5 matches and are without a win in their last 6. They were a late substitute for Aston Villa in midweek and managed to hold Tottenham to a 1-1 draw on the road. Fulham have only won once at home in 8 starts this season.

Chelsea are 9th on the table and are on a disappointing run that has seen them win only 1 of their last 6 games. Their recent away form is particularly poor and they have lost 3 on the trot.

BETTING

Fulham 21/4

Draw 34/10

Chelsea 11/20

Suggested Bet: The draw at 34/10

Chelsea are priced up as good things here, but I am not sure that is the case given their recent record on the road and Fulham’s improved showing against Tottenham last time out.

LEICESTER v SOUTHAMPTON – Click here to bet

Leicester are 4th on the log and they have only lost once in their last 7 EPL matches. Last time out they beat Newcastle 2-1 on the road and their last home game was a 2-2 draw with Manchester United. Their home form has let them down and they have lost 50% of their home games.

Southampton are 7th on the table and won for the first time in 4 starts when they beat Liverpool 1-0 at home last time out. They have only lost once on the road this season winning 3 and drawing 4 of their 8 games.

 

BETTING

Leicester 15/20

Draw 57/20

Southampton 73/20

Suggested Bet: Southampton win at 73/20

I am going for the outsider here on the basis of their excellent form on the road and also the fact that they have won this fixture the last two times they have been to Leicester.
