Norwich vs. Southampton |
 |
Southampton in the head-to-head at 2.00 (WinnersBet)
Norwich snapped their winless streak prior to the international break with an away win over the out-of-sorts Brentford. There was an element of good fortune in that win, with Norwich conceding 19 shots and 7 shot on target. Brentford’s expected goals were 2.79 but they could only manage the one goal. Since then Norwich sacked manager Daniel Farke, a decision the owners had reached prior to the game, and replaced him with Dean Smith. Southampton bring 3-1-0 form into this clash and they kept a clean sheet in three of those four games. In Norwich’s previous 2019/20 EPL campaign Southampton completed the double over them.
0-1 correct score at 8.50 (bet365)
Southampton’s last three wins were all by 1-0 scorelines.

Aston Villa vs. Brighton |
 |
Back the Draw at 3.25 (Sportsbet)
Brighton have become draw specialists of late. An incredible five of their last six fixtures have resulted in a stalemate. Had you wagered $1 on the draw for every Brighton fixture over the last 12 months you would be up $16.75 in profit. Over one third of Brighton’s away games over the last 12 months resulted in a draw. Since Aston Villa were promoted back into the Premier League, two of their four fixtures against Brighton ended in a stalemate.

Wolves vs. West Ham |
 |
West Ham in the head-to-head at 2.40 (Sportsbet
West Ham +0.5 (double chance) at 1.40 (bet365)
Wolverhampton are doing well but West Ham are absolutely flying. The Hammers have won four on the trot and they have gone 9-3-1 as the away favourite over the last 12 months. West Ham completed the double over Wolves last season.
 |
Burnley vs. Crystal Palace |
 |
Crystal Palace +0.5 (double chance) at 1.43 (bet365)
Burnley have won just one of their last ten, while Crystal Palace have only lost one of their last ten. The Eagles bring a six-game unbeaten streak into this clash and they won their previous two games, both against top-ten sides.
 |
Liverpool vs. Arsenal |
 |
Liverpool in the head-to-head at 1.44 (BlueBet)
Liverpool have won five straight at home against Arsenal and all five wins were by 2+ goals. Arsenal’s games against Chelsea and Man City this season resulted in 2-0 and 5-0 defeats.
Over 2.5 goals at 1.50 (bet365)
Liverpool’s last eight EPL fixtures went over 2.5 goals and their last eight home games against Arsenal went over this total.
 |
Man City vs. Everton |
 |
Man City -1.5 at 1.48 (bet365)
Everton have been largely toothless without forward Dominic Calvert-Lewin. They limp into this fixture in 0-2-3 form. Man City have won seven on the trot against Everton and six of those wins were by 2+ goals. Three of Everton’s last four away defeats over the last 12 months were by 2+ goals while 12 of Man City’s 15 home wins were by 2+ goals.
