FRIDAY

Nottingham v Newcastle – Click here to bet

Nottingham are currently 14th on the log and without a win in their last 5 starts.  They went down 3-1 to Tottenham on the road last time out and their last home game was a 2-2 draw with Everton.

Newcastle are 5th on the log and got their first win in 5 starts last time out beating Wolves 2-1 at home.  Newcastle have won 1 and drawn 3 of their last 4 away games and their last away match was a 2-0 defeat to Manchester City.

Forest look like a side which is starting to struggle and with Newcastle returning to form I am going for an away win here.

Suggested Bet:  Newcastle win at 7/10

SATURDAY

Aston Villa v Bournemouth – Click here to bet

Their Aston Villa are 11th on the log and have taken 7 points from the last 9 they have played for.  They drew 1-1 at West Ham last time out and their last home game was a 1-0 victory over Palace.

Bournemouth are currently sitting 18th on the log in the final relegation spot, but they are coming off a 1-0 home win over Liverpool.  They have only won twice in 13 road trips this season.

Bournemouth beat Aston Villa 2-0 on the road in the reverse fixture and I am backing them to take a point out of this game.

Suggested Bet:  The draw at 29/10

 

Brentford v Leicester – Click here to bet

Brentford got back to winning ways with a 2-0 away win over Southampton last time out, a result that sees them sitting in 8th on the table and they have only lost once at home this season.

Leicester are 16th on the log, but have suffered 4 successive defeats including going down 3-1 to Chelsea at home last time out.  Their last away game was a 1-0 defeat to bottom of the table Southampton.

Leicester look to be a side in deep trouble and I am more than happy to take the even offer on money about a Brentford win.

Suggested Bet:  Brentford win at 1/1

 

Southampton v Tottenham – Click here to bet

Southampton are bottom of the table, but they have had 2 wins in their last 5 games.  They are coming off a 2-0 home defeat to Brentford and have only managed 2 home wins all season.

Tottenham are 4th on the log with 3 wins in their last 4 starts.  They beat Nottingham 3-1 at home last time out.  Their recent form on the road has been shaky though and they have lost their last 2 away games.

This is a fixture which has delivered goals over the years and in the last 7 head-to-head’s between the sides both teams have found the back of the net and I am looking for that trend to continue.

Suggested Bet:  Both teams to score, YES, at 10/11

 

Wolves v Leeds – Click here to bet

Wolves are currently 13th on the log with just 1 win in their last 5 starts.  Their last match was a 2-1 defeat at Newcastle and prior to that they beat Tottenham 1-0 at home.

Leeds are currently 19th and very much in the relegation battle.  They have only won 1 of their last 10 matches and have only won once in 13 attempts on the road all season.

Neither of these teams is in the greatest of form and it looks a bit of a dangerous game for punters.

Wolves beat Leeds 1-0 at home in the EFL Cup earlier this season and I am going to go for a repeat of that result.

Suggested Bet:  Correct Score 1-0 at 5-1

 

Chelsea v Everton – Click here to bet

Chelsea are currently 10th on the log and they are coming off a back-to-back victories away at Leicester and at home to Leeds.

They face an Everton side that has won 2 of its last 5 fixtures including beating Brentford 1-0 at home last time out, a game where they started marginal favourites.  Everton have battled on the road this season winning just once in 13 attempts.

Chelsea beat Everton 1-0 away in the reverse fixture and under 2.5 goal backers would have collected profits in the last 5 head-to-head fixtures in the League.

My money is on this game being another low scoring fixture.

Suggested Bet:  Under 2.5 goals at 8/10

 

SUNDAY

Arsenal v Crystal Palace – Click here to bet

Arsenal are currently top of the table 5 points clear of Manchester City with both sides having 11 games left to play.  They won their last 5 League games in a row including beating Fulham 3-0 on the road last time out.

Crystal Palace are 12th on the log without a win in their last 10 matches.  They are coming off 3 successive defeats, most recently 1-0 on the road at Brighton.

Palace haven’t scored a goal in 5 matches and I can’t look past a comfortable Arsenal win here.

Suggested Bet:  Handicap, Arsenal -1.5 goals at 8/10
