FULHAM v ARSENAL – Click here to bet

Fulham were promoted from the Championship last season and they face a stern opening test against Arsenal who finished 8^th on the log and will be looking for major improvement.

These sides last met in the 2018/2019 season when Fulham were relegated and Arsenal won 4-1 at home and 5-1 on the road.

Betting

Fulham 19/4

Draw 33/10

Arsenal 11/20

Suggested Bet: Over 2.5 goals at 7/10

Arsenal were quite strong towards the end of last season and I think we could well get goals at both ends.

CRYSTAL PALACE v SOUTHAMPTON – Click here to bet

Crystal Palace really limped into the end of last season, but they did manage to finish in 14^th place despite only taking 1 point from the last 15 they played for.

Southampton finished in 11^th spot and were undefeated in their last 5 matches, winning their last 2 games of the season.

Southampton won their last 3 away matches at Crystal Palace.

Betting

Crystal Palace 43/20

Draw 22/10

Southampton 14/10

Suggested Bet: Southampton win at 14/10

If these sides start anything like they finished last season then this is a cracking price.

LIVERPOOL v LEEDS UNITED – Click here to bet

Liverpool were Champions last season winning by 18 points and they face newly promoted Leeds United who make their return to the top flight for the first time since being relegated in 2004, meaning there is no recent head-to-head stats to go on here.

Betting

Liverpool 7/20

Draw 19/4

Leeds 8/1

Suggested Bet: Handicap, Liverpool (-1) at 8/10

I expect Leeds will give a good account of themselves, but Liverpool should be too strong in the end and I back them to win by more than a goal.

WEST HAM v NEWCASTLE UNITED – Click here to bet

West Ham narrowly avoided relegation last season and they did so thanks to a strong finish with 2 draws and 2 wins in their last 4 matches.

Newcastle went on a good run just after the COVID-19 break, but they ended the season with 4 defeats and a draw in their last 5, but still managed to finish 13^th.

Newcastle won 3-2 at West Ham last season and there were a total of 9 goals in the two matches between the sides.

Betting

West Ham 23/20

Draw 5/2

Newcastle 49/20

Suggested Bet: Over 2.5 goals at 19/20

The head-to-head stats suggest that we could have some goal bounce action in this one.
