TUESDAY

LEICESTER v LIVERPOOL

Leicester are currently 10^th on the table having lost 2 of their last 3 matches, the last a 6-3 away defeat to Manchester City. Their last home game was a 4-0 victory over Newcastle and overall at home they have won 4 and drawn 1 of their 8 matches. Leicester’s home games have averaged 3.4 goals each and 3 of their last 5 matches would have delivered profits had you been backing over 3.5 goals.

Liverpool are 2^nd on the table and are coming off a 2-2 away draw at Tottenham last time out as their match against Leeds was postponed due to COVID cases. They have won 6, drawn 2 and lost 1 of their 9 away games and Liverpool away games have been the highest scoring in the Division averaging 4.1 goals each with 8 of the 9 matches delivering profits had you backed over 2.5 goals and 6 of the 9 had you backed over 3.5 goals.

Leicester won this fixture 3-1 last season but the season before, Liverpool beat them 4-0.

Leicester 13/2

Draw 19/4

Liverpool 7/20

Suggested Bet: Over 3.5 goals at 17/20

I must admit I was hoping for a bigger price but the bookmakers, much like myself, are expecting goals in this one and I don’t think we will be disappointed as Leicester in particular are playing some high risk football at the moment.

WEDNESDAY

CHELSEA v BRIGHTON

Chelsea got back on the winning trail with their 3-1 away win over Aston Villa last time out and they are currently 3^rd on the log, level on points with Liverpool, but having played a game more. They have played 9 home matches winning 5, drawing 3 and losing 1, but they have drawn 3 of their last 4 home games. Having a closer look at Chelsea’s goal stats at Stamford Bridge their matches have averaged 3.2 goals each with 5 of the 9 games reaching the 3 goal mark.

Brighton are currently 9^th on the table after a much needed 2-0 home win over Brentford, that was their first victory in their last 10 matches. Brighton have won 2 and drawn 5 of their 8 away games and Brighton road trips have been amongst the lowest in the Division averaging just 2 goals apiece with only 2 of the 8 matches seeing you get returns had you backed 2.5 goals.

Brighton have failed to score in their last 4 League visits to Chelsea, but they did hold them to a goalless draw last season.

Chelsea 9/20

Draw 7/2

Brighton 13/2

Suggested Bet: Handicap, Chelsea (-1) at 12/10

Chelsea are a little short of their best at the moment, but they shouldn’t have any problems seeing off a Brighton team that struggles on the road and that will likely battle to penetrate the Chelsea defence.

THURSDAY

EVERTON v NEWCASTLE

Everton are currently 15^th on the log with only 1 win in their last 8 matches. They drew 1-1 away at Chelsea last time out and their last home game was a 2-1 win over Arsenal. Both teams have found the back of the net in Everton’s last 4 matches and they haven’t been in action since mid-December due to COVID.

Newcastle are 2^nd from bottom of the log and they have only taken 1 point from the last 12 they have played for. Last time out they drew 1-1 at home to Manchester United and their last 2 away games were a 3-1 defeat to Liverpool and a 4-0 defeat to Leicester and they have yet to win on the road this season.

Everton 8/10

Draw 11/4

Newcastle 73/20

Suggested Bet: Newcastle win at 73/20

I am going to stick my neck out here and go for an upset as I am expecting Newcastle to click into gear at some point.
