8/30/2019

It’s the 199th meeting between North London rivals Arsenal and Tottenham this Sunday afternoon.

Both sides come into the game on the back of their first Premier League defeats of the 2019/20 season. The Gunners lost out 3-1 to Liverpool last Saturday while Spurs were stunned 1-0 at home to Newcastle on Sunday.

Arsenal are 13/10 favourites with bet365 to claim all 3-points this Sunday while the visitors are 9/5 and the draw is 13/5.

Record £72-million signing Nicolas Pepe caught the eye with his direct running style against Liverpool last week and he was unfortunate not to score.

Pepe to score first and Arsenal to win is 12/1 with bet365.

Liverpool and Arsenal have both made perfect starts to the 2019/20 Premier League season and the two sides go head-to-head on Saturday evening (17:30 K.O).

The Reds were successful on the opening weekend beating Norwich 4-1 at Anfield before a workmanlike 2-1 win away at St Mary’s last week.

The Gunners, meanwhile, were 1-0 winners at Newcastle in their first game and never looked troubled when beating Burnley 2-1 in the lunchtime kick-off last Saturday.

Both sides boasting such potent attacking forces goals look almost guaranteed- there has been just 1 goalless draws between Liverpool and Arsenal in the last 20 years!

Over 2.5 Goals is 4/9 while Both Teams to Score is 4/7 with bet365.

The Premier League returns this Friday evening as newly promoted Norwich head to Anfield to take on the runners-up from last season Liverpool.

The Reds amassed no fewer than 97pts in the Premier League last campaign only to be pipped to the title by Guardiola’s Manchester City. Opponents Norwich, meanwhile- were crowned champions of the Championship with an impressive 94pts (27W 13D 6L).

The Canaries have been relatively quiet in the transfer window with defender Sam Byram the only substantial signing arriving in East Anglia this Summer- joining for £750,000 from West Ham. Whilst Patrick Roberts and stopper Ralf Fahrmann have both arrived on season long loan deals.

Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool side were defeated on penalties in the Community Shield at Wembley last Sunday with Joel Matip scoring the only goal in regulation time.

The Cameroonian defender is 28/1 with Bet365 to score the first goal of the 2019-20 Premier League season.

Liverpool won their opening game 4-0 against West Ham last season and 4-0 (Correct Score) this Friday is 17/2 with Bet365.

2019-20 Football League Season Preview

8/1/2019

0 Comments

The 2019/20 Football League season gets underway this Friday night with the opening round of fixtures in the Championship, League 1 & League 2.

We take a look at some of the outright winner ante-post markets and make our predictions for the upcoming season.

In the Championship, the 3 sides relegated from the Premier League last season were Fulham, Cardiff and Huddersfield. Of that trio, Fulham make the most appeal to make an immediate return to the top flight but under inexperienced boss Scott Parker they can be taken on at a general 7/1.

Instead, we fancy LEEDS to make amends for last season’s disappointment. Marcelo Bielsa has stayed on as head coach and the addition of Helder Costa as well as Jack Clarke & Jack Harrison returning on loan.

The Whites are 9/2 with Bet365 for the title and 7/4 to be promoted.

In League 1, Sunderland were strong favourites to bounce back to England’s second tier last season before being beaten in the play-off final. The Black Cats are a similar price once again this season at 7/2 with Bet365

PORTSMOUTH were edged out by Sunderland in the play-offs last season but Kenny Jackett’s side look the better value- 6/1 for the title and 9/4 for promotion with Bet365.

Sean Raggett has joined from Norwich to replace the Premier League bound Matt Clarke while Ellis Harrison is an eye-catching signing up-front having scored 20 goals at this level in the past when playing for Bristol Rovers.

And last but by no means least, League 2 looks wide open and a case can be made for half a dozen of the sides having claims for promotion this season. Last year’s relegated sides from League 1 Bradford, Plymouth & Scunthorpe are all firmly in contention with newly promoted, big-spending Salford City looking a fascinating proposition having their first foray in the Football League.

The side we fancy, however, is MANSFIELD at 8/1 with bet365 for the League 2 crown. The Stags missed out on automatic promotion by the finest of margins last term and have added Nicky Maynard, who scored 20+ for Bury last season- to their attacking ranks over the Summer.
