EPL Week 5 Predictions
—
Wolves vs Liverpool – Molineux
Wolves ($7.50)
Liverpool ($1.46)
Draw ($5.25)
Wolves will be looking to pick up their first home win of the season, as they take on a Liverpool side that have enjoyed an excellent start to the new term. Gary O’Neill has come in at Molineux and had an impact, but results aren’t necessarily what he would have wanted at this early stage. Liverpool meanwhile are looking in imperious form this season, winning three of their opening 4 games and Jurgen Klopp has his side dreaming of another title charge. This will be a good opener to the weekend, which Liverpool should win well.
Betting tip: Liverpool to win the match ($1.46)
Liverpool to win 3-1
Tottenham vs Sheffield United – Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
Tottenham ($1.32)
Sheffield United ($11)
Draw ($6.30)
Tottenham take on Sheffield United, as they look to continue their unbeaten start to the season. Spurs have been eye-catching under new manager Ange Postecoglou, and they will be keen to keep the momentum going for as long as possible. For Sheffield United meanwhile, this is a tall order, for a side that has yet to win in the league this term and they will need to be at their best defensively here. This will be a good watch, with Spurs surely getting over the line.
Betting tip: Tottenham to win the match ($1.32)
Tottenham to win 3-0
Fulham vs Luton Town – Craven Cottage
Fulham ($1.70)
Luton Town ($5.50)
Draw ($4.10)
Fulham will be eager to get back to winning ways, as they take on Luton Town. The Cottagers have lost some key men through the summer and Marco Silva looks to be in the midst of a rebuilding job in West London. Luton meanwhile are still awaiting their first points of the season and whilst they have pushed teams close, they haven’t really managed to sustain a proper challenge for 90 minutes against anyone. This will be closer than the odds suggest but Fulham should get the job done at home.
Betting tip: Fulham to win the match ($1.70)
Fulham to win 2-1
Manchester United vs Brighton – Old Trafford
Manchester United ($2.23)
Brighton ($3.25)
Draw ($3.95)
Two sides chasing European football next season face off as Manchester United host Brighton. Two defeats from their opening 4 games is a worry for United, who have spent big again during the summer but still can’t seem to find the momentum required. Brighton meanwhile beat Newcastle well last time out to affirm their status as one of the most exciting sides in the division currently. This should be a very good one, with a draw potentially on the cards.
Betting tip: The match to finish as a draw ($3.95)
2-2 Draw
West Ham United vs Manchester City – London Olympic Stadium
West Ham United ($7)
Manchester City ($1.50)
Draw ($4.80)
Champions Manchester City travel to West Ham, in what should be a fantastic game in East London. The Hammers have started the season well and will fancy their chances of upsetting City in this one, with David Moyes’s side flying high in the table currently. City meanwhile will be looking to get back into their flow after the international break and Pep Guardiola is sure to tinker his side once more. This will be a really close one and West Ham’s current momentum could grab them a point.
Betting tip: The match to finish as a draw ($4.80)
1-1 Draw
Aston Villa vs Crystal Palace – Villa Park
Aston Villa ($1.95)
Crystal Palace ($4.25)
Draw ($3.82)
Aston Villa will be looking to continue their strong home form as they take on Crystal Palace. The Villains had no answer to Liverpool last time out and need to respond in games such as these. Roy Hodgson meanwhile has been continuing to have an impact at Crystal Palace, with the Eagles firmly settling into their mid-table status once more. This should be a good one with home advantage enough to see Villa over the line.
Betting tip: Aston Villa to win the match ($1.95)
Aston Villa to win 2-1
Newcastle United vs Brentford – St James’s Park
Newcastle United ($1.56)
Brentford ($6.40)
Draw ($4.50)
Newcastle United will be eager to bounce back from three consecutive losses, as they take on Brentford. The Toon have been poor this term and with a Champions League campaign starting next week too, they know they have their work to do in this one. Brentford meanwhile continue to pluck away in the Premier League, and they will revel in the role of party poopers in this fixture. This will be a tight one, but St James’s Park should be rocking for Toon, who should get the job done.
Betting tip: Newcastle United to win the match ($1.56)
Newcastle United to win 2-1
Bournemouth vs Chelsea – Vitality Stadium
Bournemouth ($4.90)
Chelsea ($1.76)
Draw ($4.30)
Bournemouth welcome Chelsea, in what should be a hugely entertaining encounter on the south coast. The Cherries have enjoyed moments of promise this season, without necessarily picking up the points and they will want to put that right here. Chelsea meanwhile have only won one game this season and they are already a team under pressure. This will be a very good watch and whilst Bournemouth will have a go, Chelsea should prevail here.
Betting tip: Chelsea to win the match ($1.76)
Chelsea to win 2-1
Everton vs Arsenal – Goodison Park
Everton ($6)
Arsenal ($1.57)
Draw ($4.50)
Everton are chasing their first win of the season, as they take on an Arsenal side, they managed to beat at home last season. Sean Dyche does strike a worried figure at Goodison Park, and things will have to change dramatically if they are to avoid a relegation scrap. Arsenal meanwhile, are flying high with 3 wins from their opening 4 games and they will be confident of mounting a title challenge again this term. This should be a good game and whilst Everton will have a go, Arsenal should prevail here.
Betting tip: Arsenal to win the match ($1.57)
Arsenal to win 2-0
Nottingham Forest vs Burnley – City Ground
Nottingham Forest ($2.10)
Burnley ($3.90)
Draw ($3.65)
Nottingham Forest take on Burnley in what has the makings of an early season bottom of the table clash. Forest managed a win at Chelsea last time out and are starting to feel at home in the Premier League under Steve Cooper. Burnley meanwhile have struggled in their opening 3 Premier League fixtures, conceding too many goals and they will feel like they need to see a change in results sooner rather than later. This will be a good game, with Forest likely to come out top.
Betting tip: Nottingham Forest to win the match ($2.10)
Nottingham Forest to win 2-1
