Wigan v West Ham- Wigan had a dream start to the season with the win against Top 4 chasing Aston Villa.  But they’ve not produced a win since that game.  West Ham on the other hand have picked up 4 points so far this season and are in 11th position in the table.

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.

Aston Villa v Fulham-Out of 8 Premiership games, Fulham have never beaten Aston Villa at Villa Park.  Villa have won 5 and the rest have been draws.  The Cottagers will have to look back to 1973 to the last time they beat Villa in the league. 

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).

Aston Villa v Chelsea- This game sees Hiddink take charge of his first Premiership game and what a game to start off with!!  A win for Villa will see them extend their lead over the Blues and surely will mean Chelsea are out of the title race.  It’s interesting to see that Chelsea have scored 44 times this season, 4 goals more than Aston Villa.

Premiership Betting tip- Chelsea are favourites to win this match at odds of 2.34 despite not beating Villa at Villa Park in 10 visits.  Chelsea may well have to play a patched up back four due to suspensions and injuries.  I’m going to tip Aston Villa to beat Chelsea, at odds of 3.6 the odds look pretty decent to back an in form home team.

It’s been all ‘crazy’ talk this week in the world of Premiership football.  Although it’s obvious Liverpool manager Benitez is showing no signs of this crazyness. 

Aston Villa v Wigan-Villa will be looking to win their 5th consecutive game against Steve Bruce’s wigan.  This will be an interesting game as these clubs have played each other 7 times and the home team has only come out as the winner once.  Lately Wigan’s away form has meant they have lost to Manchester United and Manchester City.

Betting tip- Last years corresponding fixture say Wigan beat Aston Villa 2-0, but Villa have already beaten Wigan once this season.  Looking on Betfair ‘Over 2.5 goals’ looks to be a tempting bet at odds of 2.1 (11/10).  With players like Zaki and Agbonlahor, there should be goals in this match. 

Also go for a small bet for ex-wigan player Heskey to continue scoring for Aston Villa at odds of 2.8 (to score at anytime).
