Arsenal v Newcastle
Arsenal looked transformed until they were thrashed by Liverpool last weekend. Tentative signs of recovery for Newcastle under new manager Eddie Howe with a 3-3 home draw against Brentford. Newcastle still haven’t won in the Premiership (even Norwich have now won twice!). Arsenal are big favourites having won four in a row before facing Liverpool.
Howe is attacking and Newcastle have threat going forward but they are like statues at the back. Arsenal get blown away by big sides but are efficient now against poor teams.
Home win: 1.52
Draw: 5.00
Away: 7
BetGold Premier League prediction: home
BetGold Premier League tip: Both to find the back of the net at Premier League odds of 1.83 – Arsenal is ’s defence isn’t great either.
Crystal Palace v Aston Villa
We are really liking Palace under Patrick Viera: in an undefeated run of seven games they have looked great going forward (13 scored) and have lately tightened at the back, too, letting in just nine.
Villa had lost 5 in a row before the arrival of the messiah (OK, Steven Gerrard). But the new manager delivered an immediate victory over normally solid Brighton.
Home win: 2.26
Draw: 3.45
Away: 3.5
BetGold Premier League prediction: Home
BetGold Premier League Prediction: Palace goals over 1.5 at Premier League odds of 2.23. Over 2.5 goals at 2.05
Liverpool v Southampton
Liverpool score goals the way Jack Nicholson used to score with actresses: 48 scored in 15 game (before the CL match with Porto). So we look with interest at over 2.5 goals for Liverpool at Premier League odds of 1.93. Do, though, remember Southampton have a mean defence and have let in just 14, but lots of teams have good defences before coming up against Salah and co.
Home win: 1.33
Draw: 6.25
Away: 11
BetGold Premier League prediction: Home
BetGold tip: Overgoals for Liverpool. Or Liverpool -1 handicap at Premier League odds of 1.84 as the Saints are about as potent as Joe Biden.
Brentford v Everton
It was all looking so good for Everton under Rafa Benitez with a great transfer window and a brilliant start. Now they haven’t won in 6. New boys Brentford have not won in five themselves, though are still playing well. With Toney at al they also score goals.
Home win: 2.3
Draw: 3.35
Away: 3.55
BetGold Premier League prediction: We can’t see Everton getting three points, both other results are possible.
BetGold Premier League tip: Both to find the back of the net at Premiership odds of 1.92. Or draw no bet Brentford: Premier League odds of 1.64.
Leicester v Watford
We disagree with the bookies here. They have Leicester as really hot favourites, but hold on: Leicester haven’t won in five, have one of the worst defences in the league (21 conceded) and only got back from a Europa League match in Vienna in the early hours of Friday morning. Plus Watford have just stuffed Manchester United 4-1 and got their manager sacked. Watford will be full of confidence. Watford have two away victories to their credit.
Home win: 1.67
Draw: 4.2
Away: 5.8
BetGold Premier League prediction: Draw – possibly! See below
BetGold Premier League tip: Draw no bet Watford is available at great Premiership odds of 4.2. Over 2.5 goals at Premier League odds of 1.68
Chelsea v Manchester United
Don’t over-complicate: play the betting equivalent of the simple pass and bet Chelsea to win at nice odds. Chelsea are hard to fault and have goals all over the pitch, while United look like letting in goals from all over the pitch. They are managerless, and clueless.
Chelsea have so many goals in them while United have conceded 21 Premier League goals – literally, indefensible.
Home win: 1.63
Draw: 4.1
Away: 6.00
BetGold Premier League prediction: Home
BetGold tip: Home win is such a cracking bet. Also Chelsea goals at Premiership odds of 1.73. Both to score if you think Ronaldo will score (he has been scoring in fairness)
