Newcastle 10/11 Draw 29/10 Villa 27/10

 

Newcastle are on a high after winning their last 2 league games 4-0 and reaching the EFL Cup semi finals. Villa have won 3 of their last 4 although some recent away results have been disappointing. I expect goals here, Anthony Gordon is the pick to set up one of them.

 

Bets: Player Assists, Anthony Gordon,1 or more at 26/10 with Betway

 

Southampton 23/10 Draw 26/10 West Ham 23/20

 

Ivan Juric officially takes over at Southampton and he saw his side pick up a rare clean sheet and point at Fulham last week. I didn't think much of West Ham's performance in the home draw with Brighton but Kudus is my man to provide an assist for the visitors.

 

Bets: Player Assists, Mohammed Kudus,1 or more at 7/2 with Betway

 

 

Wolves 28/10 Draw 28/10 Manchester United 9/10

 

Wolves got a welcome 3-0 win at Leicester in Vitor Pereira's first game in charge whilst United were thumped by the same scoreline at home to Bournemouth. United have been up and down since Ruben Amorim took charge, if there was a bright spot on Saturday it was the way Bruno Fernandes and Amad Diallo linked up to provide pretty much their only threat, the duo can be involved in goal action here and Fernandes gets the assist vote

 

Bets: Player Assists, Bruno Fernandes, 1 or more at 22/10 with Betway

 

Liverpool 1 / 10 Draw 10/1 Leicester 22/1

 

Liverpool are 4 points clear of Chelsea at the top of the log after dishing out a 6-3 hiding to Spurs whilst Leicester have conceded 7 and failed to register a goal in their last 2. It looks like a mismatch and after coming through for us last weekend Szoboszlai is the pick to provide an assist for any number of goalscoring candidates.

 

Bets: Player to provide an assist Szoboszlai at 7/2 with Betway
