Premiership Betting tips: Everton v Liverpool- It’s the Merseyside derby and both teams go into this game with injury problems and poor form.  This Premiership game has seen 17 red cards, a record number for any Premiership game.  So that’s why we’ll concentrate on betting on the ‘Shown a card’ market instead of predicting a winner.  Lets back repeat offender Mascherano to pick up a yellow, you can get odds of 2.94 on Betfair.  Also back the two Lucas players playing on both sides (Lucas Neil and Liverpool Lucas -what’s his other name???) at odds of 2.0 and 3.6.

Both teams won’t want to lose this game and both teams will surely settle for a draw if the chance should occur, you can back these at odds of 3.45(12/5) on Betfair.   But the main betting tip of the day should be to back Drogba to score at anytime, he’s been in good form lately and will be a handful for an untried United defensive pairing.

Fulham have shown that they are a tough team to beat and Liverpool may find this a tricky fixture (only scoring in the last minute last season to win 1-0).  Backing the draw is tempting, but lets take a risk and go for a Fulham win, lay Liverpool if you don’t like the risk factor (so you win if Liverpool draw or lose).

Frank Lampard is supposed to be in a ‘goal drought’ for his club Chelsea, not scoring since August, but looking at his England form he’s been scoring goals.  So back him on Betfaiir to score at odds of 4.5 (7/2). 

Premiership Betting tip- In derby games you are never sure what’s going to happen as form goes out the window, although saying that both team’s form has been pretty good (United 1 defeat,City undefeated in the Premiership).  One thing that we can almost guarantee is that there will be passion and passion usually means fouls and yellow cards! Lets look at players who are likely to play and pick up yellows, Scholes is suspended for this game so lets back Fletcher & Evra for United and Nigel de Jong for City, back them all on Betfair (prices no available at present).  Lets all hope for some tasty challenges!

Premiership Betting tip- West Ham have found it hard to score goals this season and looking at last season’s result they only managed to beat Wigan 1-0 away from home.   Ignoring these stats, PremiershipBettingBanter.com is going to predict goals, if Wigan can get in the goal scoring mood like they did on the opening day of the season and if they continue to let in the goals (just like the 5 against Man Utd), then over 2.5 goals is a possibility.  Back over 2.5 goals at odds of 2.44 on Betfair.

Premiership Betting tip- Aston Villa will be dissapointed about Thursday night’s exit from Europe, but they will have confidence in the league after beating Liverpool at Anfield. on Monday night  They also have the advantage over Fulham of playing their European tie at home, whereas Fulham had to take trip to Russia.  Back VIlla to win on Betfair, you can get odds of 1.81 (4/5).

Premiership Betting tip-  Lampard was on the scoresheet mid-week with a penalty.  Back him to score anytime against Chelsea’s London rivals with Betfair, you can get odds of 2.92.
