Saturday-Monday: A 4/1 first scorer bet (Coral) and an 11/4 treble (Stan James) are two of our four Premier League picks this week.
Unbeaten Premier League leaders Chelsea have won all but one of their seven matches and their solitary stalemate was a respectable one away to the champions so it’s perhaps not surprising to see Jose Mourinho’s side rated at just 2/5 by William Hill to overcome Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.
However, the hosts have looked pretty solid of late and can definitely make the table-toppers work for the points so they could be worth an interest at 8/11 in Skybet’s handicaps, where they enjoy a two-goal start. Alternatively, Ladbrokes offer 13/5 about the visitors shading it by a solitary goal.
Liverpool’s start hasn’t been the best but they have a trio of winnable fixtures before hosting Chelsea and will be confident of getting back amongst the top four contenders sooner rather than later. A televised trip to QPR is first on the agenda and the probable return of Daniel Sturridge – an eye-catching 4/1 (Coral) to break the deadlock – can inspire the Reds to a Loftus Road triumph, an outcome Ladbrokes price at 8/13.
At the Emirates Stadium, Arsenal (2/5, Stan James) should be too strong for Hull, William Hill make Manchester United 3/4 to make it three wins on the spin as they visit West Brom and Paddy Power chalk 4/7 against faltering Everton getting back to winning ways against Aston Villa. A treble incorporating all three of those teams could pay at 11/4 (Stan James).
Elsewhere, BetVictor post 8/13 against Southampton, who entertain Sunderland, bet365 rate Leicester at 5/2 to snare a point at Newcastle and it’s 9/4 at Skybet to be inconclusive as Stoke face Swansea. Burnley finally, are 12/5 courtesy of Stan James to grab a share of the spoils at home to West Ham.
Recommended Bets:
Chelsea to beat Crystal Palace by one – 13/5 (Ladbrokes)
Daniel Sturridge to score first – 4/1 (Coral)
Arsenal, Man Utd and Everton treble – 11/4 (Stan James)
Newcastle and Leicester to draw – 5/2 (bet365)
