PREMIER LEAGUE: We preview Saturday’s Premier League games with a recommended BETDAQ bet.
BOURNEMOUTH V EVERTON
3pm Everton continued their unbeaten run on Boxing Day when drawing away to West Brom, and Bournemouth will have to play well to beat them here. Having really improved at the back, it’s now eight games in all competitions and they’ve played the likes of Liverpool and Chelsea in that run too. They’ve only conceded two goals in their last six, and Bournemouth look a very good lay here to start the days action. Bournemouth have had a tough run of fixtures, however they are without a win in their last six games – conceding 16 goals. We’re happy to lay Bournemouth at 2.44 given the form that Everton are in and we strongly feel that this one will be closer than those odds suggest.
BETDAQ BEST BET:
Lay Bournemouth at 2.44.

CHELSEA V STOKE
3pm Stoke have steadied the ship with four points from their last two games just when they were in danger of dropping into the bottom three. It’s still difficult to see them getting a result from this game though, as Chelsea have won their last six home Premier League games. It must be noted too that Stoke have a very poor record away from home this season, losing six of their ten games and only winning once. Given the goals that Chelsea have been able to score this season and Stoke’s away record, we feel Chelsea can cover the handicap here. They’re currently trading 1.88 -2 goals on the Asian Handicap (Stakes void if they win by exactly two) and that looks good value to us.
BETDAQ BEST BET:
Chelsea -2 goals Asian Handicap to beat Stoke at 1.88.

HUDDERSFIELD V BURNLEY
3pm Burnley picked up yet another scalp on Boxing Day as they held Man United to 0-0 at Old Trafford. Only Spurs have beaten them now in their last six games, and they have been really grinding out decent results this season. Huddersfield have been a lot stronger at home compared to away this season, however with the form that Burnley are in and the results that they have got this season, Huddersfield look desperately short here at 2.42. Indeed, we can’t look any further for our best bet – the Huddersfield lay looks the best bet of the weekend.
BETDAQ BEST BET:
Lay Huddersfield at 2.42.

LIVERPOOL V LEICESTER
3pm Leicester backers and fans would have been bitterly disappointed with their loss against Watford on Boxing Day. Watford had been in poor form going into that game, and perhaps that highlights how different Leicester are playing away compared to at home. With Liverpool scoring 12 goals in their last three games and the club boosted by the big money signing of Virgil Van Dijk during the week, it’s hard to see Leicester getting anything from this game. And with Liverpool finding their scoring touch recently too, we like the look of the 1.88 on the home side to cover the handicap.
BETDAQ BEST BET:
Liverpool -1.5 goals to beat Leicester at 1.88.

NEWCASTLE V BRIGHTON
3pm This is an interesting game from a betting point of view. Newcastle are trading 2.18 at the time of writing, however they have lost nine of their last 11 games and also lost their last five at home. Bar a surprise recent win against West Ham, who haven’t been great either this season, they have been very poor, and it’s hard to know what to expect from them here. They played OK here the other night to “only” lose 1-0 against Man City, however they never troubled City – as you would expect. It’s tempting to lay Newcastle at 2.18 given their recent poor form, those odds definitely aren’t a ‘back,’ however relying on Brighton doesn’t seem a good play. They have lost their last three away games all by the same 2-0 scoreline, and only managed to score twice in their last eight. We expect this to be a very tight affair, possibly nervy given the sides form, and under 2.5 goals looks the best option at 1.64.
BETDAQ BEST BET:
Under 2.5 goals at 1.64.

WATFORD V SWANSEA
3pm Watford finally got back to winning ways here on Boxing Day with a 2-1 win over Leicester. That ended a run of four straight defeats and they have every chance of following that up with another three points here against the struggling Swansea. Swansea were very poor last time out when losing 5-0 at Anfield, and while Watford don’t have the class that Liverpool’s attacking line have, Swansea looked terrible. If you go back to the start of last season, they’ve lost 20 of their 29 away games and with stats like that it’s hard not to back Watford here. The home side are currently 1.75 and that looks too big against a side playing like Swansea are at the moment.
BETDAQ BEST BET:
Watford to beat Swansea at 1.75.

MANCHESTER UNITED V SOUTHAMPTON
5.30pm Southampton were hammered by an in-form Harry Kane last time out when losing 5-2 to Spurs, however they will fancy their chances of an upset here given the way United have been playing lately. United are without a win in their last three, and have conceded six goals in those three games. Prior to that, they are just barely recorded wins against West Brom and Bournemouth while playing poorly. United look pretty short here at 1.37, however Southampton haven’t exactly been banging in goals for fun this season so maybe they aren’t the best team to take advantage of United’s poor form. We feel that this will be a tight and scrappy game, and with under 2.5 goals trading 2.24 that looks good value.
BETDAQ BEST BET:
Under 2.5 goals at 2.24.
