SATURDAY

ARSENAL v LEICESTER CITY

Arsenal got their campaign off to a perfect start with a 2-0 away win over Crystal Palace on Friday last week. They took the lead after 20 minutes before wrapping the game up with 5 minutes to go thanks to an own goal by Palace.

Leicester started 9/10 favourites at home to Brentford in their opener, but could only draw 2-2 despite leading 2-0 just after half-time.

Arsenal have won their last 3 against Leicester in the EPL including this fixture last season where they won 2-0.

Arsenal 8/15

Draw 7/2

Leicester City 5/1

Suggested Bet: Handicap, Arsenal -1 goal at 13/10

Arsenal’s last 3 victories over Leicester have all been by more than a goal and given the way they started the season I think they can win this one by two goals or more.

 

BRENTFORD v MANCHESTER UNITED

Brentford opened their campaign with a 2-2 draw away at Leicester showing great grit to come from 2 goals down to grab a point. They face a Manchester United side that started 8/10 favourites at home to Brighton, but went 2 goals down before pulling 1 back to lose 2-1.

Brentford made their debut in the Premier League last season and they lost 3-0 at Old Trafford and 3-1 at home to United.

Brentford 11/4

Draw 26/10

Manchester United 1/1

Suggested Bet: Brentford win at 11/4

United looked really poor against Brighton and it is hard to see that they can turn the corner in such a short period of time. The bookies have priced this one on reputation more than current form and I think Brentford are great value to grab all 3 points.

 

SUNDAY

CHELSEA v TOTTENHAM

Chelsea got a workmanlike 1-0 win at Everton in their opening fixture and they were a warm order with the bookies priced at 6/10. They face a Tottenham side that sits top of the table on goal difference thanks to their 4-1 home win over Southampton last week, a game where they started 7/20 favourites.

Chelsea have won their last 3 fixtures in a row against Tottenham including winning this fixture 2-0 last season and the reverse 3-0 on the road. They have not conceded a goal to Tottenham in their last 4 League matches.

Chelsea 13/10

Draw 12/5

Tottenham 85/40

Suggested Bet: Chelsea win at 13/10

There was lots to like about Tottenham’s win over Southampton, but Chelsea at home will be a different proposition and given the history between these sides would suggest that the home win is some good value at current prices.
