We take a closer look at the 3 English Premier League matches taking place on Sunday and suggest a bet in each.

BURNLEY v FULHAM – Click here to bet

Burnley are 16^th on the table, 5 points ahead of 18^th placed Fulham with both sides having played 15 matches. 3 of Burnley’s 4 victories this season have come in their last 5 matches and 2 of those were at home including a 1-0 win over Sheffield United in their last start. Burnley home games have been the lowest scoring in the division with just 12 goals in their 7 home matches.

Fulham are coming off 4 successive draws most recently a goalless match at home against Southampton. Fulham away matches have averaged 2.6 goals each, but only 2 of the 7 would have seen over 2.5 goal backers collect.

BETTING

Burnley 12/10

Draw 47/20

Fulham 49/20

Suggested Bet: Burnley win at 12/10

Burnley have put together some workmanlike victories at home and I expect another one here.

NEWCASTLE v LEICESTER – Click here to bet

Newcastle are 14^th on the table and although they haven't won in their last 4 they will have taken heart from a goalless draw at home to Liverpool last time out. Newcastle home games have averaged 2.8 goals this season with 5 of the 8 matches delivering 3 goals or more.

Leicester are 3^rd on the table, 4 points behind Liverpool and they are coming off successive draws away at Palace and at home to Manchester United. Their away form has been excellent with 6 wins and a draw in 8 starts and Leicester away matches average 3.3 goals each with 5 of those games delivering for over 2.5 goal backers.

BETTING

Newcastle 17/4

Draw 3/1

Leicester 13/20

Suggested Bet: Total Goals Aggregated 2-3 at 19/20

This has been a very popular outcome in Leicester matches and would have arrived in 7 of their last 8 games.

CHELSEA v MANCHESTER CITY - Click here to bet

Chelsea are 6^th on the table, 2 positions above Manchester City although they are level on points and Manchester City have 2 games in hand. Chelsea have only won 1 of their last 5 games and last time out drew 1-1 at home to Aston Villa. They have lost only once at home this season and Chelsea home games have averaged 3.3 goals each.

Manchester are undefeated in their last 6 with 4 wins and 2 draws. They beat Newcastle 2-0 at home in their last start and their last away game was a 1-0 win over Southampton. City’s last 5 matches have all delivered for under 2.5 goal backers.

BETTING

Chelsea 2/1

Draw 27/10

Manchester City 13/10

Suggested Bet: Manchester City win at 13/10.

I just get the feeling that Manchester City are starting to move into top gear and with Chelsea struggling they could be ripe for the taking.
