*All odds are subject to change
Arsenal vs Leeds: Player will score and his team will win – Viktor Gyokeres @ 2.32
Gyokeres endured a tough start to the Premier League season, but the international break should have done him the world of good. The striker scored in all four of Sweden’s Nations League matches, a handy return to form with Kai Havertz expected to miss out vs Leeds with an injury picked up on Germany duty. Gyokeres scored twice in Arsenal’s 5-0 home win over Leeds last season, and the Whites lost each of the last seven top-flight games vs the Gunners. So the pre-match stats/facts suggest this goalscorer and result combo is well worth backing.
Chelsea vs Bournemouth: Player to score or assist – Cole Palmer @ 1.78
Palmer missed the international break with injury, but is all set to return for Chelsea’s home match against Bournemouth on Saturday. The languid playmaker failed to properly shine in the 3-0 defeat at Brentford, though he was arguably still his side’s best player on the night. And Palmer loves playing at Stamford Bridge, recording a goal against Brighton and an assist vs Hull in the two previous home games. Against a Bournemouth side without a win or clean sheet in Premier League action this season, Palmer can fill his boots in West London once again. Oh and before we forget, the Englishman also scored in his last two appearances against Bournemouth at Stamford Bridge! Over to you, Cole.
Sunderland vs Brighton: Player to score or assist – Pascal Gross @ 2.90
What a start to the season it has been from Brighton’s evergreen midfielder. After five games played, Gross has tallied seven goal contributions, five of them recorded on the road. The German maestro scored and assisted in the 3-0 victory over Arsenal before the break, and now has Sunderland’s Daniel Ballard-less back-line firmly in his crosshairs. The Black Cats shipped five goals in their most recent game vs Manchester City, while Brighton struck 19 times in the previous six matches overall. A goal from the visitors at the Stadium of Light feels inevitable, and backing the league’s most in-form operator to play a decisive role is priced very handsomely indeed, a lovely surprise!
Manchester United vs Tottenham: Both teams to score – Yes @ 1.48
Saturday evening sees a battle between two struggling giants at Old Trafford. Manchester United won just one of their opening five matches, while Tottenham are yet to record a victory in the top flight. So this really is a massive game, a must-win for both sides in truth. But while that fact is far from ideal for supporters, from a neutral perspective it should pave the way for an entertaining contest. BTTS landed in four of Man Utd’s previous six games across all competitions, while Spurs at least found the scoring touch against Aston Villa last time out, ultimately losing 3-2 on home soil.
Liverpool to beat Manchester City @ 2.52
To say the atmosphere at Anfield on Sunday will be raucous is perhaps something of an understatement. Manchester City arrive at Liverpool’s ground for their first match since being found guilty of 115 charges related to financial misconduct. What are the chances, eh? Enzo Maresca’s men have won every single match so far this term, though a trip to Liverpool under current circumstances could not be a more difficult task. As such, it could be worth taking a small gamble on the Reds here, especially after the confidence-boosting wins over Tottenham (3-1) and Bournemouth (0-1) before the international break.
