West Ham vs. Brighton |
 |
Back West Ham in the head-to-head at 1.90 (bet365)
West Ham tend to follow the form guide at home. Over the last 12 months they have gone 7-2-1 as the home favourite compared to 1-1-6 as the home underdog. After a poor start to the season they’ve only lost 1 of their last 5 games, which was a 2-3 home defeat to Tottenham. Swansea and Huddersfield were the other two visitors to the Olympic Stadium over the last six weeks and both lost without scoring a goal. Brighton have made a decent start to their EPL campaign, but 7 of their 8 points have come at home. Brighton have gone 0-1-3 away from home since promotion and have only scored one away goal during that stretch.
Back under 2.5 goals at 1.74 (Betfair)
With Andy Carroll absent, Brighton looking short of goals away from home and both sides showing good defensive form, this looks destined to be a low scoring affair.

Stoke City vs. Bournemouth |
 |
Back Stoke City in the head-to-head at 2.219 (Pinnacle)
Stoke City have gone 6-1-1 as the home favourite over the last 12 months while Bournemouth have gone 2-4-10 as the away underdog and 3-4-12 in all away games. Bournemouth have yet to pick up a single point away from home this season. They’ve only scored 1 goal in their 4 away fixtures thus far.

Back Man Utd in the head-to-head at 1.377 (Pinnacle)

Back Man Utd to win to nil at 1.83 (Sportsbet)
Back Both Teams To Score: No at 1.65 (Unibet)
Huddersfield sit 12th on the table with a 2-3-3 record, but their two wins came in the opening two weeks. They’ve only managed to score one goal in their six subsequent games. In terms of fixtures Huddersfield have had a soft schedule thus far. The only top contender they’ve faced is Tottenham, who inflicted a 4-0 home defeat on them. Man Utd have started the campaign with a 6-2-0 record. They’ve kept 7 clean sheets in those 8 games. United boast a 10-3-0 record as the away favourite over the last 12 months. Of their 6 wins this campaign, 5 were by more than 1 goal and 4 were by 4-0 scorelines.

Tottenham vs. Liverpool |

Back the Draw at 3.60 (Sportsbet)
Liverpool have drawn 6 of their last 18 away games and have already been involved in 4 draws in their 8 EPL games this season, including 3 of their last 4. EPL fixtures between Liverpool and Tottenham have resulted in a stalemate in 3 of their last 4 meetings. A 0-0 or 1-1 draw is worth a look for those who enjoy Correct Score wagering.
