PREMIER LEAGUE ROUND 36: BETTING TIPS
LIVERPOOL VS TOTTENHAM
PREMIER LEAGUE FORM: W – W – W – D – W VS W – D – L – W – W
This upcoming contest at Anfield promises to be a blockbuster game as both teams need a win in order to reach their respective objectives. Liverpool will be aiming to keep pace with Manchester City, as they know that if they drop points in the coming games, they will most likely lose out in the title race. On the other hand, Tottenham need to get themselves back into the top-four fight by avoiding defeat, especially with an upcoming North London derby against rivals Arsenal looming in the distance.
The reverse fixture in London finished all square at 2-2, with many talking points, and we are expecting more of the same this weekend. A midweek Champions League game against Villarreal might play into Tottenham’s hands as the would-be title-chasers will line up with only a few days of rest.
Antonio Conte will need to conjure something special to get one over Jurgen Klopp, knowing that Liverpool are yet to be beaten at home in the Premier League this season.
Liverpool are priced at 11/12 (1.92) to win and over 2.5 goals to be scored in the match, whilst a Tottenham 1-0 win is at 11/1 (10.00).
We are pricing Harry Kane to score anytime during the match at 11/5 (3.20), whilst Diogo Jota is at 6/5 (2.20) to score during the game.
A halftime draw and a Liverpool win in the second half is priced at 7/2 (4.50), whilst Tottenham to score first is valued at 39/20 (2.95)
INJURIES OR SUSPENSIONS:
Liverpool – Roberto Firmino
Tottenham – Tanganga, Doherty, Reguilon and Skipp
PREVIOUS GAME LINE-UP:
Liverpool – Alisson, Robertson, Van Dijk, Matip, Gomez, Keita, Henderson, Milner, Mane, Jota and Diaz
Tottenham – Lloris, Romero, Dier, Davies, Emerson, Bentancur, Hojbjerg, Sessegnon, Lucas, Kane and Son
MATCH ODDS: Liverpool, who lines up as the favourites, are at 4/9 (1.45) to win, whilst Tottenham are at 11/2 (6.50), and a draw at 4/1 (5.00)
LEICESTER VS EVERTON
PREMIER LEAGUE FORM: L – D – D – L – W VS W – L – D – W – L
After a brilliant performance from Everton against Chelsea to claim a vital three points, the Toffees now visit the King Power Stadium to play one of their latest must win matches. Leicester, on the other hand, fell to a defeat at the hands of Tottenham Hotspur at the weekend and will be looking to exact their revenge this weekend.
Leicester City have the Europa Conference League semi-final in the balance when they face Roma in the second leg this Thursday. With not much to play for in the Premier League, Brendan Rodgers may be tempted to rest players ahead of his side’s semi-final fixture, as the club find itself in a great position to win their first European trophy. Conversely, Everton have it all to play for, as they find themselves in 18th place with two points less than Burnley and Leeds.
If you’re anticipating a cagey affair with pressure being mostly on Everton to create, we’ve got 2.5 goals to be scored priced at 6/7 (1.85).
An Everton win with a correct score of 2-1 is priced at 10/1 (11.00)
Jamie Vardy is priced at 7/5 (2.40) to mark his comeback to the side with a goal anytime during the match.
INJURIES OR SUSPENSIONS:
Leicester – Ryan Bertrand, Ndidi
Everton – Nathan Patterson, Donny Van De Beek, Andre Gomes, Ben Godfrey, Andros Townsend
PREVIOUS GAME LINE-UP:
Leicester – Schmeichel, Soyuncu, Amartey, Castagne, Albrighton, Soumare, Mendy, Perez, Thomas, Iheanacho and Daka
Everton – Pickford, Iwobi, Coleman, Mina, Holgate, Mykolenko, Gordon, Doucoure, Delph, Gray and Richarlison
MATCH ODDS: Leicester are valued at 7/5 (2.40) to win, whilst Everton are at 41/20 (3.05), and a draw at 12/5 (3.40)
BURNLEY VS ASTON VILLA
PREMIER LEAGUE FORM: W – W – W – D – L VS W – D – L – L – L
Burnley look like a changed team. Following the dismissal of Sean Dyche, they’ve racked up three wins and a draw, clawing themselves out of the relegation zone. In their latest victory over Watford, the Clarets dug deep after going a goal behind, turning the game around in the last 10 minutes. Aston Villa registered their first win in six games, correcting a slump that saw Gerrard’s side slide down to 14th place.
Belief is surging into the Clarets’ veins with impressive performances and great football rekindling their support. And, although they’re not out of the danger zone just yet, a win and three points against Aston Villa could light a bigger fire under Everton and other teams fighting their way out of relegation. This weekend will be the first time this season that these teams play against each other, with the reverse fixture being played in two weeks following postponement.
The focus will surely be on the home side and Mike Jackson as they continue to fight for survival.
Burnley are priced at 8/1 (9.00) to win with a correct score of 1-0, whilst an Aston Villa win and over 2.5 goals to be scored in the match at 53/20 (3.65).
Philippe Coutinho is priced at 31/10 (4.10) to get his name on the scoresheet at any time, whilst Weghorst is at 23/10 (3.30).
INJURIES OR SUSPENSIONS:
Burnley – Ben Mee, Erik Pieters, Maxwell Cornet, Gudmundsson, Westwood and Jay Rodriguez
Aston Villa – Leon Bailey, Morgan Sanson and Kortney Hause
PREVIOUS GAME LINE-UP:
Burnley – N. Pope, Taylor, Tarkowski, Collins, Roberts, McNeil, Cork, Brownhill, Lennon, Weghorst and Vydra
Aston Villa – Martinez, Cash, Chambers, Mings, Digne, Iroegbunam, Bailey, McGinn, Ramsey, Coutinho and Watkins.
MATCH ODDS: Burnley are priced at 41/20 (3.05) to win, whilst Aston Villa are at 27/20 (2.35), and a draw at 12/5 (3.40).
