There are 4 English Premier League matches taking place on Saturday and we take a look at the games from a betting angle.
TOTTENHAM v LEEDS – Click here to bet
Tottenham are falling down the table and currently sit 7th on the log and without a win in their last 4 matches. Last time out they drew 1-1 away at Wolves and at home they have won 3 and drawn 2 of their 7 matches. Their most recent home match was a 2-0 loss to Leicester.
Leeds are 11th on the table and they have recovered from a wobbly run to win their last 2 games, 5-0 away at West Brom and 1-0 at home to Burnley. Leeds games have averaged 3.8 goals a match this season, the highest in the League.
BETTING
Tottenham 8/10
Draw 16/5
Leeds 61/20
Suggested Bet: Over 3.5 goals at 1/1
I am not sure I have ever seen over 3.5 goals priced so short, but given the nature of Leeds matches it is not surprising.
CRYSTAL PALACE v SHEFFIELD UNITED – Click here to bet
Palace are 15th on the log, but without a win in their last 5 matches. Last time out they drew 1-1 at home with Leicester and they have drawn 2 and lost 2 of their last 4 home matches.
Sheffield United are rock bottom of the table and are without a win in their opening 16 games. They are coming off back-to-back 1-0 defeats away at Burnley and at home to Everton and they have drawn 1 and lost 7 of their 8 away matches.
BETTING
Crystal Palace 21/20
Draw 47/20
Sheffield United 3/1
Suggested Bet: Correct Score, 1-0 at 5/1
Sheffield United won both fixtures 1-0 last season and I am backing Crystal Palace to get a narrow victory here.
BRIGHTON v WOLVES - Click here to bet
Brighton are 17th on the log and are now without a win in their last 7 matches with 4 draws and 3 losses. They are yet to win at home this season, drawing 4 and losing 4 and their last home match was a 1-0 defeat to Arsenal.
Wolves are 12th on the table and they have won 1 of their last 5 matches. They were beaten 1-0 by Manchester United on the road last time out and they have won 3 and lost 5 of their 8 away matches this season.
BETTING
Brighton 33/20
Draw 43/20
Wolves 19/10
Suggested Bet: The draw at 43/20
Both these sides are battling to find form at the moment and a low scoring draw is on the cards here.
WEST BROM v ARSENAL – Click here to bet
West Brom are 19th on the table with just 1 win in 16 games. Their last 2 home games have seen them lose 5-0 to Leeds and 3-0 to Aston Villa yet on the road they have managed draws against Liverpool and Manchester City.
Arsenal are 13th on the table and appear to have turned the corner with successive victories over Brighton and Chelsea. West Brom home games have averaged 3.1 goals each this season with 5 of the 8 games delivering for over 2.5 goal backers and Arsenal away games have been low scoring averaging just 1.9 goals each with 3 of the 8 having 3 goals or more in them.
BETTING
West Brom 9/2
Draw 31/10
Arsenal 13/20
Suggested Bet: Under 2.5 goals at 19/20
I am expecting West Brom to play a fairly conservative style for a team that is at home and I think goals could be a rare commodity in this match.
