West Brom v Hull-Hull will be looking to win four games on the bounce after beating three London teams in a row. West Brom will be looking to bounce back after the thrashing handed out by Manchester United. Both of these teams have conceded 11 goals so far in the Premiership, but it’s Hull who are in the higher position in the league.
Betting tip (losing)- Hull have shocked alot of people with their form, only losing 5-0 to Wigan this season. But this has also overshadowed West Brom’s good start, their best in the Premiership. I’m going to bet against Hull in this game, there’s no doubt they deserve to be where they are in the league, but they’ve had that bit of luck on their side to get those good results. Back West Brom to win at odds of 2.34.
Wigan v Aston Villa-This will be Martin O’Neill’s 100th game as manager of Aston Villa. Villa may find this fixture difficult, only winning 1 out of the 6 games they have played against Wigan. Steve Bruce’s men played well against Liverpool last week and were unlucky not to to come away from Anfield with at least one point. Last season Aston Villa took the three points in this fixture, winning 2-1.
Betting Tip (winner)- If I was to bet on who was going to win this match then I would be leaning towards Wigan. But I’m more interested in the the ‘Over 2.5′goals market for this fixture. With Villa only keeping 1 clean sheet in 16 away matches and with both teams capable of scoring goals, I’ll be going for over 2.5 goals, priced at 2.04 on Betfair.
Chelsea v Liverpool- Liverpool have shown the character that’s needed to win the Premiership in the last two games, they’ve managed to win both matches despite trailing. Chelsea on the other hand have been in great form despite missing key players, the game last week against Boro showed exactly why they are favourites for the Championship crown. Liverpool will be missing Torres again due to injury and Robbie Keane may also miss the match.
Betting tip (losing)- Liverpool have dropped the most league points to Chelsea compared to any other team they have played. Both of these teams have been in great form, with 20 points each. The blues are a force when playing at home with 86 games without defeat, although Liverpool were the last team before Arsenal to beat Chelsea at home. This is a difficult one to call, but I find it hard to think that Chelsea will lose this game. I’m predicting a draw, maybe 1-1, back the draw at odds of 3.3.
UPDATE- Last weekend produced a few shocks in my eyes and that’s not including Tottenham winning a game!! I was wrong to think Hull would be able to keep up their good form of late and even more wrong to think Chelsea would not be beaten at home! Liverpool have again shown that they are challengers to the title, but can they keep this good run going? In the end it was only one correct tip out of three, Wigan v Villa produced over 2.5 goals as predicted.
