There are 3 English Premier League matches taking place on Sunday and we suggest a bet in each.
SHEFFIELD UNITED v TOTTENHAM – Click here to bet
Sheffield United are bottom of the table, but got a much needed victory in their last start when they beat Newcastle 1-0 at home. That was their first win of the season in 18 matches. They have lost 7 of 9 home matches this season and only 2 of their 9 home games would have delivered had you been on over 2.5 goals.
Tottenham are 6th on the table after dropping 2 points at home to Fulham in midweek. They have now only won once in their last 6 League games although away from home their record is good with 4 wins and 3 draws in 8 matches. 3 of Tottenham’s 8 away games have had 3 goals or more in them.
BETTING
Sheffield United 19/4
Draw 28/10
Tottenham 13/20
Suggested Bet: Correct score 0-2 at 11/2
I think Tottenham will beat Sheffield United, but they won’t have things all their own way and on current form will just be happy to escape with the 3 points.
LIVERPOOL v MANCHESTER UNITED – Click here to bet
This is the clash of the weekend by a country mile and sees defending Champions, second placed Liverpool take on Manchester United who hit the top of the table and lead them by 3 points after 17 matches.
Liverpool are coming off a 1-0 loss away to Southampton and they have only taken 2 points from the last 9 they have played for which included a home draw against West Brom, their first points dropped at home this season.
United are in cracking form and have won 8 and drawn 2 of their last 10 EPL fixtures, most recently beating Burnley 1-0 on the road. They have won 7 and drawn 1 of their 8 away matches and Manchester United away games have averaged 4.1 goals with over 2.5 goal backers collecting in 7 of 8 matches.
Under 2.5 goals has arrived in the last 3 head-to-head’s between the sides and Liverpool has won this fixture by 2 goals the last 2 years.
BETTING
Liverpool 1/1
Draw 28/10
Manchester United 53/20
Suggested Bet: Liverpool win at 1/1
Liverpool have been off the boil of late, but in recent times when they have been asked to lift their game against the big guns they usually succeed and prior to the West Brom draw they had some excellent form at home.
MANCHESTER CITY v CRYSTAL PALACE - Click here to bet
Manchester City are 3rd on the log 4 points behind United, but with a game in hand. They are in excellent form having won their last 4 games and are undefeated in their last 8. City have only lost once at home this season although their home games have been surprisingly low scoring with just 2 of the 8 delivering profits had you backed over 2.5 goals.
Crystal Palace are 13th on the log after breaking a 5 match streak without a win when they beat Sheffield United 2-0 at home last time out. Their recent away form has been poor though with just 1 win in their last 5 and Palace away games have averaged 3.1 goals each with 5 of the 8 delivering for over 2.5 goal backers.
BETTING
Manchester City 2/11
Draw 13/2
Crystal Palace 15/1
Suggested Bet: Goals Home Team 3 or more at 8/10
I was quite surprised to see Palace have a good recent record away at City, drawing last season and winning the season before but I feel that City are getting into their business at the right time and this bet would have arrived in 4 of the last City home matches against Palace in the League.
