Premier League Gameweek 17 Preview

12/19/2025

0 Comments

 
It’s the final round of Premier League fixtures before Christmas with permutations aplenty at both the top & the bottom..
Saturday lunchtime sees Carabao Cup semi-final pair Newcastle & Chelsea go head-to-head at St James’ Park.

The Magpies overcame Fulham on Wednesday night to book their spot in the League Cup final-4 while the Blues were 3-1 winners over Cardiff on Tuesday.

8 of Newcastle’s last 9 games saw both teams find the back of the net & that trend looks set to continue here.

BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE @ 4/7
Picture
At 5:30 on Saturday, Tottenham welcome Liverpool to North London.

Thomas Frank’s side were thumped 3-0 by Nottingham Forest last weekend & the pressure is beginning to mount on the Danish head coach.

Recent meetings between the sides have been goal-laden & 8 of Spurs’ last 9 competitive games saw 3 or more goals so backing another high-scoring affair is probably the sensible play..

OVER 2.5 GOALS @ 4/6

Finally at 8pm on Saturday night, Everton face Arsenal at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.

Injuries plus players heading away for AFCON continuing to limit David Moyes’ squad selection.

The Tofees were uninspiring in their 2-0 defeat to Chelsea last week while Arsenal were made to work against basement-boys Wolves.

Both matches between these sides ended in a draw last year & that could be the case once again.

DRAW @ 31/10
​
Sunday’s sole offering sees the red hot Aston Villa host the porous Manchester United.

Unai Emery’s side extended their winning sequence to 9 with victory over West Ham last weekend & the Red Devils’ frailties were on display for all to see in their 4-4 with Bournemouth on Monday night.

Only Man City (46pts) have earned more Premier League points at home in the calendar year than Aston Villa (40pts).

ASTON VILLA @ 23/20​
Picture
On Monday evening, Fulham take on Nottingham Forest at Craven Cottage.

Welsh winger Harry Wilson has 3 goals & 4 assists in his last 4 Premier League appearances and looks good value for another goal involvement.

HARRY WILSON to SCORE or ASSIST @ 8/5​

Picture
The Premier League title race took a turn last week with Arsenal seeing their lead at the top reduced and the fixtures continue to come thick & fast…

We start at the Bridge when an out-of-sorts Chelsea take on Everton.

The Blues are winless in 4 following a disappointing defeat to Atalanta in the Champions League in midweek & Enzo Maresca will no doubt be looking for a response from his side on Saturday.

The Toffees, on the other hand, recorded back-to-back successes when outclassing Nottingham Forest last weekend. Thierno Barry was on target that day & will be looking to add to his tally today.

THIERNO BARRY (Anytime Goalscorer) @ 10/3​

Also kicking off at 3 o’clock on Saturday is Liverpool versus Brighton.

Arne Slot’s side recorded a welcome win away to Inter Milan in the Champions League during the week & the Reds have lost just one of the last 11 meetings with the Seagulls at Anfield (W7, D3, L1).

7 of Brighton’s last 11 games saw both teams find the back of the net.

BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE @ 8/15

Saturday evening’s entertainment comes from the Emirates where Arteta’s Arsenal take on woeful Wolves.

Monday night’s defeat to Manchester Utd was Rob Edwards’ 4th loss from his first 4 games in charge of the Midlands club & the outlook is certainly bleak to say the least.

 ARSENAL (HT-FT) @ 1/2​
Undoubtedly the pick of the action on Sunday afternoon is the Tyne-Wear derby as Sunderland welcome neighbours Newcastle to the Stadium of Light.

Eddie Howe’s side triumphed 3-0 over their North-East rivals in the FA Cup earlier this year & the Magpies extended their recent run of good form to 4 games without defeat with leaving Leverkusen with a point in the Champions League.

NEWCASTLE @ 13/10​
Picture
Finally, on Monday night Manchester United take on a struggling Bournemouth.

The Cherries are winless in 6 (D2 L4) & Iraola looks set to be without star defender Marco Senesi who was forced off through injury against Chelsea last week. 

The Red Devils put 4 beyond Wolves last Monday night & Ruben Amorim’s side seem to be find their attacking edge of late with 10 of their 15 Premier League outings featuring O2.5 goals..

OVER 2.5 GOALS @ 8/13

Following an exhilarating midweek round of action which saw no less than 33 goals scored, the Premier League gallops on this weekend..
Kicking things off at 12.30 on Saturday is Aston Villa v Arsenal with Unai Emery set to take on his former employers.

The Villains extended their winning sequence to 6 when edging out Brighton in a 4-3 thriller on Wednesday but a lower scoring fixture looks likely here.

9 of the Gunners’ 14 Premier League fixtures this season have featured less than 3-goals.

UNDER 2.5 GOALS @ 8/11
Picture
At 3 o’clock on Saturday, Man City entertain Sunderland at the Etihad.

Pep Guardiola’s side looked imperious for the most part before surviving a late scare against Fulham during the week.

Phil Foden was on target twice on Tuesday with the 25-year old England international notching 4 goals in his last 2 appearances.

PHIL FODEN (Anytime Goalscorer) @ 13/8

The Saturday evening slot sees Leeds United host Liverpool.

Daniel Farke’s side turned the formbook on its head when overcoming Chelsea in midweek and the Whites will need to be somewhere near their best again.

Arne Slot’s side were lethargic in their 1-1 draw with Sunderland but the Reds haven’t lost at Elland Road since November 2000.

LIVERPOOL @ 5/6
The pick of Sunday sees Brighton welcome West Ham to the South-Coast.

The Hammers remain engulfed in the dreaded relegation zone despite rescuing a point at Old Trafford on Thursday & are unlikely to trouble their hosts who have a decent home record this season (P7 W4 D2 L1). 

BRIGHTON @ 11/20
Picture
Finally, on Monday woeful Wolves take on Manchester United as they attempt to add to their 2-point tally.

Defeat to Forest last Wednesday was Rob Edwards’ side's 7th defeat in succession.

The Red Devils have failed to keep a clean sheet in any of their last 12 away league games, conceding 24 goals in that time.

BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE & OVER 2.5 GOALS @ 1/1

Unlucky for some. 13. This weekend sees Premier League sides in action for the 13th time this season.

We kick off the weekend with Manchester City taking on Leeds United at 3pm on Saturday. The Cityzen’s side suffered shock back-to-back defeats following reversals against Newcastle & Bayer Leverkusen respectively over the past week.

City have won the last 4 meetings with Leeds, scoring an average of 4 goals p/g. 

MAN CITY & OVER 3.5 GOALS @ 8/5
Picture
The tea-time kick off (17:30) on Saturday sees Everton welcome Newcastle to the Hill Dickinson. 

The Toffees were resolute in overcoming Man Utd on Monday having played with 10-men for the majority of the match.

​Eddie Howe’s visiting Magpies continue to struggle away from home.

EVERTON @ 7/4
Saturday’s action concludes with a London derby between Spurs & Fulham.

Thomas Frank’s men have shipped 9 goals in their last 2 outings, failing to record a clean sheet in any of their last 3 Premier League matches.

BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE @ 3/4

Sunday’s bumper day of Premier League action gets underway with Crystal Palace hosting Manchester United.

The Red Devils have failed to win in any of their last 5 visits to Selhurst Park.

CRYSTAL PALACE (DRAW NO BET) @ 8/13
Picture
Finally, the standout tie of the week is undoubtedly meeting of the Premier League’s in-form sides in Chelsea & Arsenal.

Both sides were successful in their respective Champions League ties during the week & in truth there is very little to separate the two.

DRAW @ 9/4

Following yet another International break, the Premier League returns this weekend with a feast of fixtures for football lovers to enjoy.

The action gets underway at lunchtime on Saturday with Burnley taking on Chelsea (12:30 KO).

The Blues have won on each of their last 6 Premier League visits to Turf Moor while 8 of Chelsea’s last 9 away games this season have featured over 2.5 goals. 

CHELSEA & OVER 2.5 GOALS @ 5/4

There’s 5 fixtures at 3pm on Saturday inc. Liverpool v Nottingham Forest..

Anfield remains a fortress for the reigning champions amidst their recent dip in form with Arne Slot’s side suffering just 1 defeat in their last 22 home league outings (W17, D4).

LIVERPOOL to WIN @ 2/5
Picture
The Saturday action concludes at St. James’ Park as Newcastle host Man City.

The Magpies record Summer signing Nick Woltemade was on target 3 times for Germany over the international break and has scored in 3 of his 4 league games at St James’ Park.

NICK WOLTEMADE (Anytime Goalscorer) @ 15/8

Sunday’s offering sees Leeds & Aston Villa go head-to-head before a mouthwatering North London Derby between Arsenal & Tottenham.

The Gunners are unbeaten in their last 6 H2H meetings with Spurs (W5, D1, L0) & Mikel Arteta’s side boast a perfect record across all competitions this season when scoring the first goal.

ARSENAL (HT/FT) @ 11/10
Picture
The weekend's action concludes on Monday night with Man Utd versus Everton.

The Toffees haven’t fared well at Old Trafford in recent years with just a solitary win in their last 32 top-flight trips to Old Trafford way back in 2013/14. 

The Red Devils were 4-0 winners of this fixture last season & look good value to record another comfortable success.


MAN UNITED to NIL @ 9/4

Arsenal v Tottenham Preview (26/9/2021)

9/24/2021

This Sunday sees the 204th renewal of the North London Derby between Arsenal & Tottenham.
The 2 sides go into Sunday’s clash in contrasting form with the Gunners buoyed by back-to-back wins in the Premier League while Spurs on the other hand are still licking their wounds following successive 3-0 defeats.

Nuno Espirito Santo was named “Manager of the Month” for August but the newly installed Tottenham boss has endured something of a hangover in September. 
Harry Kane was starved of any clear cut chances against Chelsea last Sunday but the England captain was on target in Wednesday's Carabao Cup win over Wolves & the 28-year old is the leading goalscorer in North London Derby history with 11 goals.
Arsenal midfielder Granit Xhaka is available for selection having served a 3-game ban following a straight red against Man City in Gameweek 3.

The Swiss international has featured in 11 North London derbies against Tottenham during his time at Arsenal and has been cautioned no fewer than 6 times inc. receiving a yellow in each of last season’s fixtures.

Back Granit Xhaka (1st Player Booked) at 15/2 with Bet365.

Tottenham v Chelsea Preview (19/9/2021)

9/16/2021

Sunday 19th September 2021    Premier League    16:30 K.O.     Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
Tottenham’s unbeaten start to the Premier League season came crashing down last weekend and Nuno’s men face the daunting prospect of coming up against early pacesetters Chelsea at home this Sunday.
The Blues are unbeaten in their opening 4 fixtures this season (W3 D1), scoring 9 times and conceding just once from the penalty spot against Liverpool in gameweek 3.

Tuchel’s men were narrow 1-0 winners in the Champions League during the week whilst Spurs were held to a 2-2 draw by Rennes in the lesser coveted Europa Conference League on Thursday.

Romelu Lukaku’s goal was the difference against Zenit on Tuesday night and the Chelsea no.9 has 3 goals in 3 appearances in the Premier League this season.
Add Romelu Lukaku (First Goalscorer) straight to your betslip at 3/1 with bet365.
You have to go back to 2018 to find the last time Spurs beat Chelsea in a Premier League game when Dele Alli, Son Heung-Min & Harry Kane were all on the score sheet in a 3-1 victory at Wembley.

New boss Nuno Espirito Santo does, however, boast more recent winning form over the Blues having guided his former side Wolves to victory over a then Frank Lampard managed Chelsea side in December of last season. 

Eduoard Mendy has recorded 3 shutouts in his 4 Premier League appearances this season & Senegal stopper can continue his run for Golden Glove with another clean sheet this Sunday.​
Back Chelsea to win to nil at 7/4 with bet365.

Liverpool v. AC Milan Preview (15/9/2021)

9/14/2021

16-years on from the “Miracle in Istanbul” Liverpool & AC Milan go head-to-head in the Champions League once again.

The Reds pulled off one of the most miraculous comebacks of all time in 2005, however, the Italians did get their revenge in 2007. 
Liverpool midfielder Harvey Elliott was just 2-years old when Jerzy Dudek was denying the likes of Pirlo & Shevchenko from the penalty spot.

​The talented teen looks set for a spell on the sidelines after sustaining a nasty injury at the weekend.

The 2 sides have met twice in friendlies since the 2007 Champions League final with the Merseyside club winning 2-0 on both occasions.
Add Liverpool 2-0 (Correct Score) to your bet-slip at 13/2 with bet365.

Mohamed Salah notched his 100th Premier League goal over the weekend as Jurgen Klopp’s men eased to a 3-0 win over Leeds.

​The Egyptian winger has an equally as impressive strike-rate in  Champions League, scoring 28 times in 24 appearances.

Salah was on target 6 times in last season’s competition when the Reds crashed out in the quarter-finals to Real Madrid.
Back Mohamed Salah at 20/1 for Champions League Top Goalscorer with Bet365.

Leeds v Liverpool Preview (12/9/2021)

9/9/2021

2 Comments

 
This Super Sunday sees Leeds United hosting Liverpool at Elland Road with both sides set to be without key players.
Alisson, Fabinho & Roberto Firmino were all prevented by Liverpool from representing Brazil during the International break whilst winger Raphinha was also barred by the Leeds hierarchy from making what would have been his debut for the Selecao.
Leeds completed the £25million signing of Daniel James from Manchester United on Deadline Day and the Welshman could be the beneficiary of Raphinha’s enforced absence on Sunday.
James was hardly prolific during his 2-year spell in Manchester but the 23-year old has bundles of pace and could cause Andy Robertson problems as the Scot continues to get up to speed following an injury hit start to the campaign.

​
Robertson played 86mins for the Reds prior to the International break and featured in all 3 World Cup Qualifiers for Scotland to varying degrees of success.
Embed from Getty Images
The Tartan Army were well beaten by Denmark last Wednesday before important victories over Moldova and Austria to keep them in the hunt for an automatic spot in Qatar next November. 

Craig Pawson will be the man in the middle on Sunday and the Yorkshireman dished out no fewer than 8 cards during his 2 Premier League fixtures so far this season.
Back Andy Robertson to be booked at 6/1 with Bet365.

Hungary v England Betting Preview (02/9/2021)

9/1/2021

2 Comments

 
England are back in action for the first time since EURO 2020 final heartache as Gareth Southgate’s Three Lions travel to Budapest to face Hungary in their latest World Cup qualifier.
Embed from Getty Images
The Hungarians were one of the surprise packages of EURO 2020 despite failing to make it out of Group F, securing shock draws with both France & Germany.

Marco Rossi’s men currently sit 37th in the FIFA rankings, 33 places below Gareth Southgate’s Three Lions who occupy 4th spot- and the Magyars are unbeaten in World Cup qualifying so far.
The bookmakers are predicting a straightforward success for England with bet365 pricing up the away win at 2/5 while a victory for the hosts is available to back at 15/2 with the draw 10/3.
With Danny Ings, Marcus Rashford, Ollie Watkins & Dominic Calvert-Lewin all ruled out, Patrick Bamford has earned his first call up to the England squad.

​The Leeds striker scored 17-times for the Yorkshire club last season and the 27-year old was off the mark for this campaign when scoring a late equaliser against Burnley last weekend.
Embed from Getty Images
Bamford is 8/5 with Bet365 to score anytime.
