Norwich vs. Aston Villa |
 |
Aston Villa in the head-to-head at 2.25 (bet365)
Aston Villa have lifted notably under new manager Steven Gerrard. They’ve suffered narrow defeats to Liverpool and Man City, but those aren’t the games that Gerrard will be judged by. Their other three fixtures under him resulted in victories over Brighton, Crystal Palace and Leicester City – all sides that are far stronger than Norwich. Norwich have lost their last three Premier League fixtures against Aston Villa and they have a 0-1-4 record as the underdog against Villa.
 |
Wolves vs. Brighton |
 |
Under 0.5 first half goals (0:0 score) at 2.37 (bet365)
Brighton have failed to score a first half goal in their last four fixtures while Wolverhampton have seen their last six fixtures go into halftime at 0-0 all.
Draw at 3.20 (Sportsbet)
Brighton have drawn eight of their last ten games and four of their last five fixtures against Wolverhampton resulted in a draw.

Arsenal vs. West Ham |
 |
Arsenal in the head-to-head at 2.15 (Sportsbet)
Arsenal boast a 9-0-1 home record against West Ham over the last ten years. They boast a 11-4-1 record as the home favourite over the last 12 months.
 |
Chelsea vs. Everton |
 |
Chelsea to win to nil at 1.80 (bet365)
This is primarily a bet against Everton. They limp into this fixture in 1-1-7 form and were really poor against Crystal Palace over the weekend. The Toffees’ five previous visits to Stamford Bridge resulted in four defeats and one 0:0 draw. Chelsea outscored Everton 13 goals to nil in those five games. Eight of Chelsea’s eleven home wins over the last 12 months were to nil while five of Everton’s seven away defeats were to nil.
 |
Liverpool vs. Newcastle |
 |
Liverpool to win to nil at 1.80 (bet365)
Seven of Liverpool’s eight home wins over the last 12 months were to nil while nine of Newcastle’s twelve away defeats were to nil.
