There are 3 English Premier League matches taking place on Sunday including the massive Manchester United v Liverpool clash and we look at each of the matches from a betting angle.
BRENTFORD v LEICESTER
Brentford have made a great start to life in the English Premier League and they currently sit 9th on the log with just 2 defeats in their opening 8 games. One of those defeats came last time out 1-0 at home to Chelsea and in previous home games have drawn to Liverpool, lost to Brighton and beaten Arsenal.
Leicester are 11th on the table and are unbeaten in their last 3 starts with 2 draws and a victory, that victory came last weekend against Manchester United where they won 4-2. 6 of the 8 Leicester games have delivered profits for over 2.5 goal backers and their last 3 matches have all had 4 goals or more in them.

Brentford 33/20
Draw 49/20
Leicester 17/10
Suggested Bet: Over 2.5 goals at 17/20
The way Leicester are playing we are bound to get chances at both ends and I am betting on 3 goals or more in total.
WEST HAM v TOTTENHAM
The Hammers are 7th on the table, 1 point behind Tottenham who sit in 5th. They are coming off an impressive 1-0 away victory over Everton, but their last home game was a 2-1 loss to Brentford and they have only won 1 of their 4 home matches this season. 6 of the 8 West Ham games has seen both teams find the back of the net.
Tottenham are coming off back-to-back victories, 3-2 away at Newcastle and 2-1 at home to Aston Villa. They have had 2 victories and 2 losses in their 4 away matches this season and over 2.5 goal backers would have collected profits in their last 5 matches.
West Ham won this fixture 2-1 last season and the reverse fixture was drawn 3-3.

West Ham 29/20
Draw 49/20
Tottenham 39/20
Suggested Bet: Over 2.5 goals at 15/20
I am once again turning to the goals market rather than a match result and all signs point to a high scoring encounter.
MANCHESTER UNITED v LIVERPOOL
The clash of the weekend without a doubt sees 6th place Manchester United take on 2nd place Liverpool.
United’s recent form has been poor and they lost 4-2 to Leicester away last time out and prior to that drew 1-1 at home to Everton and lost 1-0 at home to Aston Villa. They were 2-0 down to Atalanta in the Champions League in midweek before storming back to win 3-2, a result that may have given them some confidence.
Liverpool also played in a thrilling Champions League match, beating Atletico Madrid 3-2 on the road. Their last League game was a 5-0 thumping of Watford and prior to that they had drawn 2-2 at home to Manchester City and 3-3 on the road to Brentford. Over 2.5 goal backers would have collected profits in Liverpool’s last 5 matches.
This fixture finished 4-2 to Liverpool last season with the reverse at Anfield finishing goalless.

Manchester United 2/1
Draw 53/20
Liverpool 13/10
Suggested Bet: Liverpool win at 13/10
I was once again looking to the goals markets here, but over 2.5 goals is a bit short for me at 11/20, I keep coming back to the fact that Liverpool are playing some great football and that come from behind win in midweek for Manchester United may just have covered over the cracks a bit, so Liverpool win for me at a current price of 13/10.
