We take a look at the 2 English Premier League Matches taking place on Tuesday night and suggest a bet in each.

MANCHESTER UNITED v LEICESTER

First up we have Manchester United v Leicester and United can pretty much secure 2nd spot on the log with a victory here. They are in good form and last time out beat Aston Villa 3-1 on the road and their last 10 League matches has seen them win 7 and draw 3.

Looking at their home form their last home game was a 3-1 win over Burnley and they have won their last 4 matches at Old Trafford. Manchester United home games have averaged 3.4 goals each this season and over 2.5 goal backers would have collected profits in 10 of the 16 matches.

Leicester are 4^th on the log, but they have hit a wobbly patch and are coming off a 4-2 home loss to Newcastle, having drawn 1-1 away at Southampton prior to that. Their away form has been excellent this season with 10 wins and 5 draws in 17 matches, but they have dropped points in 3 of their last 4 away games.

Leicester’s away matches have averaged 2.8 goals each with a fairly even split between over and under 2.5 goals.

These sides drew 2-2 at Leicester in the reverse fixture.

Manchester United 16/10

Draw 22/10

Leicester 39/20

Suggested Bet: Over 2.5 goals at 19/20

Leicester’s recent games have all had goals in them, but 4 of the last 5 would have seen this bet collect and the same can be said for Manchester United last 5 EPL matches.

SOUTHAMPTON v CRYSTAL PALACE

Southampton are currently 16^th on the log and not quite mathematically certain of any EPL football next season. They are coming off a 2-0 away loss at Liverpool and have only taken 1 point from the last 12 they have played for in the League.

Looking at their home form they have won 4 and drawn 6 of 16 League matches, but have only won 1 of their last 5 matches at home.

Crystal Palace are 13^th on the table, 4 points above Southampton with both teams having 4 matches left to play. Palace’s away form has been reasonable, winning 2 of their last 5 and their away games have been amongst the highest scoring of the Division with 10 of the 17 reaching the 3 goal mark at an average of 2.9 goals a game.

Palace won the reverse fixture 1-0 and that was the 5^th consecutive match between these sides which has failed to reach the 3 goal mark.

Southampton 11/10

Draw 26/10

Crystal Palace 49/20

Suggested Bet: Under 2.5 goals at 8/10

I can see this being quite a cagey affair and recent history between the sides suggests it could be low scoring.
