Burnley vs. Brighton |
 |
Back Under 2.5 goals at 1.57 (Unibet)
Back Under 1.5 goals at 2.75 (Unibet)
Burnley are the lowest scorers in the league with 13 goals but they also have the 12th best defensive record, which combines to create low scoring games. Eleven of Burnley’s last 16 home games went under 2.5 goals and seven of their last eight fixtures went under this total. Burnley failed to record a shot on target in each of the last two games, so it’s not as if they’re creating numerous chances without scoring. Brighton are notoriously bad at taking their opportunities and have scored just three goals in their last five games. The Seagulls have kept four consecutive clean sheets, however, which is why they’ve won 3 of their last 4. Brighton’s last five fixtures all went under 1.5 goals while five of Burnley’s last eight games went under 1.5.

Fulham vs. West Ham |
 |
Back West Ham +0.5 at 1.32 (bet365)
Back West Ham in the head-to-head at 2.10 (bet365, BlueBet)
Fulham have failed to win in 11 games while West Ham have won 5 of their last 6, including their last 3 away games.

Wolves vs. Leicester City |
 |
Back Leicester City in the head-to-head at 2.25 (bet365, Unibet)
Wolves defeated Arsenal midweek to end an eight-game losing streak but the Gunners were well in control in that match until they went down to 10, then 9 men. Leicester City have won 4 of their last 6 and they are expected to get Wilfred Ndidi and Jamie Vardy back for this clash.
Back Leicester City +0.5 at 1.35 (bet365)
Leicester City have only lost 1 of their last 9 while Wolverhampton have only won 1 of their last 9, and there were some caveats to that win as discussed above.

Leeds vs. Crystal Palace |
 |
Back Leeds in the head-to-head at 1.80 (bet365)
This tip centres around the fact that Crystal Palace talisman Wilfried Zaha is out with a hamstring injury that he picked up midweek. Palace have won just 2 of their last 18 games when Zaha has been absent. This season they have gone 0-0-3 without scoring in his absence. Palace are now heavily impacted by injuries. Wayne Hennessey, Nathan Ferguson and Connor Wickham have been out for most of the season. Mamadou Sakho, James Tomkins and Jeffrey Schlupp are injured with medium-term injuries while Joel Ward, James McArthur and James McCarthy all picked up injuries in recent weeks.
