Premier League Predictions > Apr 25th - 27th

[StevieDay1983]

Check out the odds for the midweek games taking place in the Premier League. It's all getting rather tense at both ends of the table so keen to hear what bets you're all slamming down. Can we pool our thoughts and take the fight to the bookies?

You'd be poor if you'd backed Forest too often this season, but I've got to take some 11/2 at home against Brighton. A game we simply have to win if we're going to stay up, Brighton played extra time on Sunday and suffered a demoralising defeat on penalties.  Forest should have gained some confidence from the Liverpool game and the atmosphere the City Ground will be rocking under the floodlights.

To be fair, I backed your boys to get something at home against Manchester United the other week and they let me down... but it was a big risk from me... and, on another day, Harry Maguire would've either been sent off, given away a pen, or both!

Leeds United vs Leicester City

Leeds United will be hoping to return to winning ways here following the 2-1 Premier League loss in their previous game against Fulham. The third defeat in a row brought the hosts dangerously close to the red zone, and they are only a point ahead of their next opponent and Everton. It has been a rare occasion in recent games where Leeds United has managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes. It will be a concern for them that Leeds United has failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 6 of their previous six matches, leaking 20 goals during that time. There aren't many personnel worries, with just a single fitness concern for the Leeds United boss Javi Gracia to contend with from an otherwise complete set of players. Stuart Dallas (Femoral Fracture) misses out.

Leicester City heads into the clash after a 2-1 Premier League win over Wolverhampton Wanderers in their most recent game. That victory dragged the Foxes out of the relegation zone, but they are leveled with Everton, who is first below the red line. Leicester City has been a threat going forward of late, scoring six times in their last six matches. Having said that, Leicester City has had its issues at the back, also conceding in 6 of those same clashes. Let's see if that trend can be sustained in this game. Leicester City boss Dean Smith has to contend with a number of unavailable players. Ryan Bertrand (Knee Surgery), Jonny Evans (Calf Injury), and James Justin (Achilles tendon rupture) will miss out on this game.

Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

It is going to be a close game, and we anticipate much excitement on Tuesday evening. Neither team has enjoyed good form recently, and we won't be surprised if they split points at Elland Road.

Goals Market Prediction

Both sides have had issues in the backline lately, which resulted in many conceded goals. We expect quite the same this time, and they shouldn’t keep a clean sheet in this encounter.

Draw @ 3.65

BTTS Yes @ 1.65

Correct score 2:2 @ 13.00

[harry_rag]

Villa v Fulham: 365 offering tempting prices about the 2 main strikers, 7/5 for Watkins and (at the other end of the spectrum, for a striker) 13/2 for James. Played both as singles and small bet builder double on them both obliging at 18/1.

Also done the BB of Watkins to score/Villa to win/>1 goal at 5/2

[harry_rag]

Leeds v Leicester: Had a look at this one for the 25% boost 365 BB offer. Played >2 goals, btts and Iheanacho to score at 4/1 for that.

Matched on Sinisterra to score at 7 (scored in 6 of his 14 starts) and part matched on Rodrigo at 3.8. Aiming for 3.7 Iheanacho but may have missed out on better than that by being a bit greedy!

Manchester City vs Arsenal

Manchester City will be looking for a repeat result of the 3-0 FA Cup triumph over Sheffield United. Although the Citizens are five points behind their upcoming rivals, they also have two games in hand. Manchester City has been on a persistent run of goalscoring form, netting every time they've gone out to play in their last six matches. They've hit an aggregate of 18 during that period while seeing the number of goals scored against them stand at 4. Even so, time will tell if that pattern shall be replicated in this next game or not. The Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has zero fitness concerns whatsoever before this game, owing to a completely healthy group to pick from.

In their last fixture, Arsenal drew 3-3 in the Premier League match with Southampton. It was a huge hiccup for the Gunners, who are now not the top favorite to win the title. In as many as 5 out of the previous six games featuring Arsenal, a minimum of three goals have gone in. The overall average number of goals per match during that time is 4.33, with the average number of goals for Arsenal working out to 2.67. They need to put on a great display at Etihad Stadium on Wednesday evening to keep a safe distance from their rivals.

Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

It is going to be an exciting game, and we must say the momentum is on the home team's side. Therefore, we think Manchester City will win this encounter and take over control in the title race.

Goals Market Prediction

Both teams have been pretty productive recently, and we are going to see a great fight between these two sides. Therefore, the crowd should expect to see goals in both nets in this encounter.

Manchester City to Win @ 1.57

BTTS Yes @ 1.70

Correct score 3:1 @ 12.00

West Ham vs Liverpool

West Ham United is hoping to win again following a 4-0 Premier League success vs Bournemouth. It was their third win in the last five rounds, which dragged them away from the danger zone. Matches featuring West Ham United have often been exciting affairs lately, with high scoring anticipated. Over their past six clashes alone, a total of 22 goals have flown in for both sides combined (at an average of 3.67 goals per game), with 13 of them coming from West Ham United. The West Ham United boss David Moyes doesn't have any fitness concerns whatsoever coming into this game owing to a completely injury-free group available to select from.

Liverpool goes into this clash after a 3-2 Premier League win in the defeat of Nottingham Forest in their last match. Although they struggled a lot in that game, the Reds kept a glimmer of hope to squeeze into the top four. Showing their appetite for fruitful matches, we've seen goals 22 times in the last six games in which Liverpool has taken to the pitch, yielding a mean average of 3.67 goals each clash. Opposing teams have hit ten from this total. Let's see whether or not that trend can be sustained here. Coming into this meeting, Liverpool is undefeated in their previous two league matches away from home. Liverpool boss Jürgen Klopp has a number of players out of action. Calvin Ramsay (Knee Surgery) and Stefan Bajcetic (Tear in the abductor muscle) will miss out on this game.

Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

Although Liverpool celebrated twice in a row, a tough task is ahead of them in London. West Ham has been in good form lately, and we believe the hosts can stay undefeated in this encounter.

Goals Market Prediction

Both teams have improved their finishing in the previous several weeks, and we expect them to continue in the same fashion. That's why we believe the crowd will see each side scoring at least once in this match.

West Ham AH +0.5 @ 2.02

BTTS Yes @ 1.65

Everton vs Newcastle United

Everton heads into this match following on from a goalless Premier League draw against Crystal Palace. Just one win on the last nine occasions isn't enough to keep the Toffees out of the relegation zone. In their prior six fixtures, Sean Dyche's Everton has netted a combined total of 5 times which gives them an average number of goals scored per match of 0.83. Heading into this fixture, Everton has not won at home in their last two league matches. They need to improve that record to stay up at the end of the campaign. Regarding the selection issues, Andros Townsend (Cruciate Ligament Injury), Amadou Onana (Leg Injury), and Andy Lonergan (Knee Problems) won't be playing for Everton manager Sean Dyche.

Newcastle United goes into this clash following on from a 6-1 Premier League win with the eclipse of Tottenham Hotspur in their most recent game. The Magpies have established themselves in the top-four zone and intend to stay there. Demonstrating their bias toward high-scoring encounters, goals have been celebrated 24 times in the prior six matches in which Newcastle United has taken to the field, yielding an average of 4 goals per clash. Opposition teams have got 7 of those goals. Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe has multiple availability issues to deal with. Matty Longstaff (Knee Injury) and Allan Saint-Maximin (Hamstring Injury) will miss out on this game.

Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

Newcastle United has been much more confident than their rivals lately, and we expect the visitors to continue in the same fashion. Therefore, the Magpies should return home with all three points in their pockets.

Goals Market Prediction

On the other hand, Newcastle's defense hasn't been as tight as in the first part of the season, and they managed to keep a clean sheet only once on the previous 13 occasions. Since Everton needs to go for a win, we expect both teams to find the back of the opponent's net.

Newcastle United to Win @ 1.78

BTTS Yes @ 1.98

Correct score 1:2 @ 8.60

Tottenham Hotspur vs Manchester United

Tottenham Hotspur will be looking to improve on their last outing here after the 6-1 Premier League losing effort in their previous game against Newcastle United. That was a huge blow for the Spurs and their second straight defeat. Matches with Tottenham Hotspur have usually been absorbing encounters recently, with high scoring being a common characteristic. Over their past six clashes alone, the sum total of 27 goals has been scored for both teams combined (at an average of 4.5 goals per game), with 12 of those accredited to Tottenham Hotspur. Going into this encounter, Tottenham Hotspur have left without a victory over Manchester United in their last four matches in the league. Yves Bissouma (Ankle Fracture) and Rodrigo Bentancur (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) will not be able to play for Tottenham Hotspur manager Ryan Mason.

In their previous game, Manchester United drew 0-0 in the FA Cup match with Brighton & Hove Albion. However, the Red Devils scheduled the FA Cup finals against their city rivals after being better in a penalty shootout. A tendency of at least one side getting a clean sheet in games involving Manchester United has been fairly consistent in recent matches. Examining their last six meetings reveals that this has occurred five times. In those clashes, opposing sides have hit a goal total of 5, and Manchester United have scored 7. We shall soon find out if that trend will be continued into this next match. Ahead of this meeting, Manchester United hasn't been beaten by Tottenham Hotspur when having played them away from home in the previous four league games. Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has some current player fitness concerns. Tom Heaton (Ankle Injury), Alejandro Garnacho (Ankle Injury), Scott McTominay (Unknown Injury), Raphaël Varane (Foot Injury), Lisandro Martínez (Metatarsal Fracture), and Donny van de Beek (Knee Injury) are not able to play.

Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

The hosts have been in crisis lately, and their rivals could take advantage of that. Although Man Utd hasn't been impressive as well, they could clinch a massive win in London.

Goals Market Prediction

It is going to be an exciting clash of the two teams fighting for the top-four finish. The BTTS Yes bet was successful in the Spurs’ last six games, and we expect that streak to continue.

Manchester United to Win @ 2.50

BTTS Yes @ 1.60

Correct score 2:3 @ 21.00

Very rare for me to make any money on Forest 🤣 but that was very nice. Relegation fight is looking very tight now.

[yossa6133]

Don't know if it's an error but Betfair have Leeds at 5/2 to go down (odds on most places), their run in looks tough.

 

Changed to evens now! It let me bet at 5/2, don't know if they will cancel it?
