BettingDiaryThere are 4 English Premier League matches taking place on Sunday and we suggest a bet in each.

 

 

 

 

ASTON VILLA v SOUTHAMPTON – Click here to bet

Aston Villa are 3rd on the table after their 1st loss of the season 3-0 at home to Leeds last time out. They had previously won their opening 4 fixtures including a 7-2 home win over Liverpool.

Southampton are 7th on the table and they have won 3 and drawn 1 of their last 4 matches and were too strong for Everton winning 2-0 at home last time out.

BETTING

Aston Villa 29/20

Draw 53/20

Southampton 18/10

Suggested Bet: The draw at 53/20

This looks like a very even match to me and I think the draw will be a big runner.

NEWCASTLE v EVERTON – Click here to bet

Newcastle are 14th on the log with just 2 wins in their opening 6 matches. Last time out they drew 1-1 away at Wolves and both teams have scored in the last 4 Newcastle matches.

Everton are top of the table with 13 points from their 6 games, but they have lost and drawn their last 2, most recently going down 2-0 away at Southampton. Both teams have found the back of the net in 4 of Everton’s last 5 matches.

Everton won this fixture 2-1 last season.

BETTING

Newcastle 51/20

Draw 26/10

Everton 11/10

Suggested Bet: Handicap, Newcastle (+1) at 8/10

I fear Everton’s season may have turned the corner and Newcastle can capitalise and get something from this game.

MANCHESTER UNITED v ARSENAL – Click here to bet

Manchester United are down in 15th position in the League with 2 wins, 2 losses and a draw in their 5 matches. Their most recent game was a goalless draw at home to Chelsea and the previous 4 games before that have all had a minimum of 4 goals in them. They have made a great start in Europe beating Leipzig 5-0 at home in midweek and last week beating PSG on the road.

Arsenal’s promising start to the season has faltered and they currently sit in 11th position with 3 losses and a win in their last 4 matches. Last time out they were beaten 1-0 at home by Leicester and their last away game was a 1-0 defeat to Manchester City. Their first 4 League matches all delivered for over 4.5 goal backers.

Arsenal have drawn 3 of their last 4 away matches at Manchester United.

 

BETTING

Manchester United 21/20

Draw 27/10

Arsenal 51/20

 

Suggested Bet: Manchester United win at 21/20

With a strong start in Europe behind them, Manchester United can concentrate on the League and I think they will beat Arsenal for 3 valuable points.

TOTTENHAM v BRIGHTON – Click here to bet

Tottenham are 5th on the table with 3 wins and 2 draws in their last 5 starts. Most recently they beat Burnley 1-0 on the road and their last home game was a 3-3 draw with West Ham where they unfortunately allowed the Hammers back into the game having led 3-0. Surprisingly Tottenham are still looking for their first home win of the season.

Brighton are 16th on the table with just 1 win in their opening 6 starts and they have drawn their last 2 fixtures 1-1 at home to West Brom and away at Crystal Palace. Both teams have managed to find the net in 5 out of 6 Brighton games.

Tottenham won this fixture 2-1 last season.

 

BETTING

Tottenham 13/20

Draw 16/5

Brighton 4/1

Suggested Bet: Handicap, Tottenham (-1) at 31/20

Tottenham have yet to hit their straps at home but I think this can change against Brighton and on Sunday and I am looking for a comfortable Tottenham win.
