PREMIER LEAGUE: The Premier League is back on Saturday after the international break. We preview all of Saturday’s games with recommended BETDAQ bets starting with the Merseyside derby at 12.30pm.
LIVERPOOL V EVERTON
12.30pm The Premier League is finally back after the International break and what a way to kick off this Saturday with the Merseyside Derby. Everton haven’t won at Anfield since 1999 and with only two wins in their last 12 away from home in the league, we don’t expect that run to change here. Everton do arrive in good goal scoring form though, having netted 17 times in their last six games – so over 2.5 goals is definitely of interest at 1.8. Liverpool have scored nine goals in their last five, and these games included Manchester City, Arsenal, Spurs and a revitalised Leicester side – so they are obviously in good form and with Everton’s lack of winning on the road, Liverpool do look big at 1.75. It’s a hard decision between over 2.5 goals at 1.8 and the Liverpool win at 1.75 but Everton’s away form just shade’s it towards the Liverpool win for us.
BETDAQ BEST BET:
Liverpool to beat Everton at 1.75.

BURNLEY V TOTTENHAM
3pm Since drawing 1-1 at home to league leaders Chelsea, the wheels have fallen off Burnley. They are without a win in their five games since, and these have included losses to Lincoln, Swansea and Liverpool, while they could only draw with Hull and Sunderland too. They have obviously been much better at home than away, and their last four have come away – so maybe we can’t read too much into recent form. They will have been glad of the International break after that run of four away games, and back at home, we expect a much improved Burnley side. They’ve won five of their last six here in the league, and while Spurs are having a good season again, their away form is a cause for concern in the run-in. They’ve only won twice in their last ten – and with Harry Kane out through injury, we’re happy to take a chance here and lay Spurs at 1.73 based in the sides respective home and away form this season.
BETDAQ BEST BET:
Lay Tottenham at 1.73.

CHELSEA V CRYSTAL PALACE
3pm It took a while but Big Sam has finally turned things around at Crystal Palace. They’ve won their last three on the bounce, and kept three clean sheets in the process – the International break probably came at a bad time for them to stop their momentum and they face the incredibly difficult task of getting a result against Chelsea now. It’s very hard to make a case to take on Chelsea at the moment, they’ve won 19 of their last 22. And they’ve an even more impressive record at home – they’ve won 12 of 13 matches, including the last ten in a row. We feel Chelsea will win here, but at 1.31 we’re going to shop around for something a bit bigger. Palace have been decent at the back while keeping those three clean sheets in a row, and Sakho has made the impact. We feel it’s worth having a small bet on under 2.5 goals at 2.1 – and it’s also worth checking the prices of 1-0 and 2-0 Chelsea wins in the correct score market closer to kick off.
BETDAQ BEST BET:
Under 2.5 goals at 2.1.

HULL V WEST HAM
3pm Hull Got a huge boost in their hopes of survival when beating Swansea 2-1, only to then go to Everton and get thrashed 4-0. That has probably summed up their season, just can’t get a run of results going – however they remain three points from safety sitting in 18th, and are still hopeful of staying up. To do that though, they simply have to collect points in games like this. West Ham arrive having lost their last three, and without a win in their last five. They’ve conceded 11 goals in those five games – shipping three goals in each of their last two. Hull aren’t superb going forward, but with the gaps West Ham leave, they have to take advantage. Hull are tempting at 2.54, however given the goals both these sides have seen this season – the value is almost certainly over 2.5 goals at 1.9 which looks very big.
BETDAQ BEST BET:
Over 2.5 goals at 1.9.

LEICESTER V STOKE
3pm Stoke have put up two decent performances in their last two games, only losing 2-1 to Chelsea and holding Manchester City to a 0-0 draw. However, they have lost four of their last six away, and with Leicester in red-hot form since the players outed Claudio Ranieri it’s hard to see anything but a home win here. Since Ranieri left, Leicester have won all four of their games, the highlights being a 3-1 win over Liverpool and a 2-0 win over Sevilla. Even when they weren’t playing that well, they have always been reasonably solid at home this season, and the 2.1 on them looks massive here.
BETDAQ BEST BET:
Leicester to beat Stoke at 2.1.

MANCHESTER UNITED V WEST BROM
3pm Jose Mourinho has been complaining about how many players he is missing in the lead up to this one, and United look a bit short at 1.38. They have struggled to break down well drilled sides this season at home, and without Zlatan and Herrera we could see something similar here. West Brom are bound to be well drilled at the back under Tony Pulis, but we don’t see his side winning here. United are unbeaten in their last 18 Premier League matches, an impressive stat although held back by draws. Instead we prefer to back under 2.5 goals at 2.04 in what could be quite a dull affair. We expect it to take a while before United can break down this West Brom side, and the price on unders looks huge with the players United have missing.
BETDAQ BEST BET:
Under 2.5 goals at 2.04.

WATFORD V SUNDERLAND
3pm We noted above that if Hull wanted to stay up, they had to collect points against out of form sides like West Ham. Well, similar applies to Sunderland here. Watford are without a win in their last four, and represent a good chance for Sunderland to get some points away from home. Watford have also only won once in their last six at home, and while Sunderland aren’t the most reliable of sides and have a poor recent record too – we just feel that this one will be a lot closer than the odds of 1.89 on Watford suggest, so we’re happy to lay Watford at those odds.
BETDAQ BEST BET:
Lay Watford at 1.89.

SOUTHAMPTON V BOURNEMOUTH
5.30pm Bournemouth have turned around a poor run in recent weeks, after drawing against Manchester United they went on to beat West Ham and Swansea, and they will see this game as another chance to pick up some points. Southampton have lost five of their last seven in all competitions, and you’ll have to keep an eye on the team sheet here to see if Gabbiadini makes it. With Austin out, Southampton have been struggling – they’ve lost seven of their last ten in the Premier League. We feel that similar to Watford v Sunderland, that this one will be closer than the odds of 1.67 on Southampton suggest and that price just looks way too short here. We’re happy to take a chance and lay Southampton at those odds.
BETDAQ BEST BET:
Lay Southampton at 1.67.
