LIVERPOOL V SWANSEA
3rd vs 20th, one team is chasing Chelsea for the top spot and the other is trying to secure their place in the Premier League for next season. The Reds are unbeaten in their last 7 league games, whilst The Swans have lost their last 5/6.
Coutinho is back and it's clear Liverpool have missed him, and I can definitely see him contributing to goals this weekend. Swansea have been conceding goals left right and centre, and in those last 5/6 games they have lost - in every single one they've conceded at least 3 goals. Netting 3 shouldn't be a problem for Liverpool.
Advert
Suggested bet: Over 2.5 Liverpool goals 4/5 with BetVictor
BOURNEMOUTH V WATFORD
These teams are in similar positions in the league, however Watford's away form is absolutely shocking. They've lost their last 5 away games and have only scored two goals in those fixtures.
Bournemouth's form is very up and down, they've won against Liverpool one week then lost to Burnley the next. This fixture is most likely going to be tight, and Bournemouth have scored in 9/10 of their home games so far this season. Considering Watford lost 1-0 to Sunderland away from home a few weeks ago, Bournemouth should be able to grab a slim victory.
Advert
Suggested bet: Bournemouth to win and under 3.5 match goals 6/4 with BetVictor
CRYSTAL PALACE V EVERTON
I am surprised at the fact Everton are over evens to beat Palace, considering the fact that they've won their last 3/4 league games and most noticeably last week's 4-0 triumph over Manchester City. The Toffees are chasing a top 6 place and will see this as points they need if they want that to happen.
Crystal Palace have lost their last 5/6 Premier League games, and have only won one league game since 24th September. Considering recent form and Sam Allardyce not having made the impacted he'd have hoped to, Everton will surely take the three points from this fixture.
Advert
Suggested bet: Everton to win 11/8 with BetVictor
MIDDLESBROUGH V WEST HAM
Another tight game this weekend, with West Ham sitting five points above Middlesbrough. On the whole, Middlesbrough's results haven't been high scoring, especially against teams of a similar position. Their last two fixtures have finished 0-0, and there is a fair chance this game will have a similar result.
Advert
These teams played in October and the result was 1-1, a likely result for the reverse fixture. West Ham will most likely be without Payet for this game so will need to adjust to not having him as an option.
Suggested bet: Either draw 0-0 or 1-1 (combination correct score) 27/10 with BetVictor
STOKE V MANCHESTER UNITED
Stoke had a terrible start to the season, not winning a game until their 8th Premier League fixture and losing five of those eight. However they not sit 9th in the table and have only lost one of their last eight at home. Crouch and Arnautovic are getting on the score sheet and I highly expect Stoke to score in this fixture.
Advert
Manchester United are unbeaten in their last 12 Premier League games and are trying to break into the top four. However, they have conceded in 8 of those 12 and some of those were against teams less likely to score than Stoke. This should be a good game to watch.
Suggested bet: Both teams to score 17/20 with BetVictor
WEST BROM V SUNDERLAND
West Brom are in a great position, they sit in 8th and if they had a better away form - they would be even higher. The Baggies have lost only three home games, but have won just three away. They will be confident going into this game and should be.
Sunderland sit in 19th and have only won one away game this season, losing their last four in a row. The Black Cats are one of the favourites for relegation so will be pushing for points, but with West Brom netting 13 in the last four home games they've won - it may be hard to take three points away from this fixture.
Suggested bet: West Brom win 7/10 with BetVictor
MANCHESTER CITY V TOTTENHAM
2nd vs 5th and this should be an outstanding game of football to watch. Man City have secured points against a lot of teams, but have struggled against tougher opponents. Pep Guardiola is feeling the pressure and there is big doubts about their title chances, now that their 10 points behind Chelsea.
Tottenham on the other hand are flying, and both Harry Kane and Dele Alli are in great form. When they beat Chelsea 2-0 a few weeks ago, it showed they are strong title contenders. Considering last week Everton came away victorious against City 4-0, Tottenham will be confident they can walk away with some points in this fixture.
Suggested bet: Tottenham to lead anytime 21/20 with BetVictor
SOUTHAMPTON V LEICESTER CITY
Both of these teams are not having the campaign they wished for, especially Leicester. The champions haven't won a single away fixture this season and are sitting just three places above relegation. This should be a match of similar standard team's.
Southampton have fluctuations in their form, beating Everton at home but then losing 3-0 away. Against teams of a similar standard, The Saints have fairly low scoring results. A low scoring draw is a likely result in this fixture but one team could grab a 1-0 win. However I think it'll be difficult for both teams to break each other down.
Suggested bet: Under 2.5 match goals 13/20 with BetVictor
ARSENAL V BURNLEY
Arsenal are currently in their favourite position in the table, 4th - and will be looking to get three points on the board which could potentially put them 2nd. They come up against a Burnley side who sit in 10th but have a terrible away form.
There is no doubt Arsenal should win this fixture, but Burnley have only been involved in three games this season that have had five goals and all three of those they won. They will put up a good fight against Arsenal and will hopefully not concede too many.
Suggested bet: Arsenal to win and under 4.5 match goals 3/5 with BetVictor
CHELSEA V HULL
On a weekend Tottenham and Man City are facing each other, Chelsea come up against a Hull side who have only scored one goal in their last six away games - all of which they have lost.
Chelsea will want to extend the gap they have over their opposition, and due to the goal difference being so close they will also not want to concede. Sunderland, Middlesbrough, and West Ham are just a few of the teams who have kept a clean sheet against Hull at home.
Suggested bet: Chelsea to win to nil 8/11 with BetVictor
