Crystal Palace vs Aston Villa match preview
Palace have scored in 7 of their last 8 league games, scoring an average of 1 goal per game in those 8 games. Palace have conceded in 5 of their last 6 league games and they conceded an average of 2 goals per game in those 6 games. Villa have scored in 6 of their last 7 league games and they scored an average of 1.42 goals per game in those 7 games. Villa have conceded in 8 of their last 9 league games and they conceded an average of 1.44 goals per game in those 9 games.
Goals don’t look a bad bet here. Palace are consistent at scoring, without being a massively impressive goal scoring team. Villa have been pretty consistent infront of goal all season and neither of these sides convince defensively and both have struggled to keep clean sheets. Over 1.5 goals looks a good bet with both teams to score also having a good chance.
Villa average 7.75 corners per game in their last 4 league games. Palace have been inconsistent with corners all season and in their last 5 league games their corner total has been 0, 2, 2, 11, 8. Total match corners would be the bet here as if Palace have a low day their is a good chance Villa could do allot of the work to cover a bet. So 8/9+match corners looks the best angle for corners.
Palace average 1.60 yellow cards per game in their last 5 league games and Villa average 1 yellow card per game in their last 5 league games. Neither side are at the high end of the cards stats and with this game not having anything overly important riding on it, we feel cards is an angle to be careful with.
The best bets in this game are
Over 1.5 goals
Both teams to score
8/9+ match corners
A goal in each half and 3+ corners in each half

Spurs vs Wolves match preview
Spurs have scored in all of their last 12 league games and they scored an average of 2.08 goals per game in those 12 games. Spurs have conceded in 5 of their last 6 league games and they conceded an average of 1.83 goals per game in those games. Wolves have scored in 5 of their last 6 league games, scoring an average of 1.16 goals per game in those 6 games. Wolves have conceded in 7 of their last 10 league games and they conceded an average of 1.50 goals per game in those 10 games. Goals look likely as Wolves seem to have rediscovered some attacking form and neither of these sides has been keeping many clean sheets lately. It’s likely there is a couple of goals at least with both teams to score also having a good chance.
Wolves average 6.20 corners per game in their last 5 league games. Spurs average 5.40 corners per game in their last 5 league games. It’s likely both teams take at least 3/4 corners and the game could be pushing towards double figures.
Spurs have been given at least 1 card in all of their last 10 league games and they average 1.60 yellow cards per game in those games. 19 of the last 22 Spurs league games had 30+ booking points. Wolves average 1 yellow card per game in their last 7 league games, so whilst they haven’t exactly been racking up massive booking points, they have been given at least 1 card in 80% of their games this season. 5 of the last 7 Wolves league games had 30+ match booking points. So its likely both teams pick up at least 1 card and the game has 30+ match booking points.
The best bets in this game are
Over 1.5 goals
Both teams to score
3/4+ corners each team
9+ match corners
A goal in each half and 3+ corners in each half
10+ booking points each team
30+ match booking points

West Brom vs Liverpool match preview
West Brom have scored in 5 of their last 6 league games and they scored an average of 2 goals per game in those games. West Brom have conceded an average of 2.25 goals per game in their last 4 league games. Liverpool have scored an average of 2 goals per game in their last 7 league games and they have conceded in 4 of their last 5 league games.
Goals look a good bet here. Liverpool need a win and West Brom have no reason to sit back and Park the bus. Over 1.5 goals and over 2.5 goals Both look very good bets, but there is also a good chance that both teams will score. West Brom have proven they do carry an attacking threat and with the way that the Liverpool wing backs Robertson and Alexander-Arnold both push forward, West Brom should get opportunities to counter. There is also a good chance that Liverpool win this game with both teams scoring.
Liverpool average 6.60 corners per game in their last 5 league games. West Brom average 4.60 corners per game in their last 5 league games. There is a good chance both teams take at least 3 corners here, with it also likely that the game will be pushing towards double figures with Liverpool likely to lead the way.
West Brom have been given 2 yellow cards in each of their last 4 league games. Liverpool have been given no cards in their last 2 league games. Any card bet is likely to depend heavily on West Brom and as they are the side who have nothing to play for here, we think it may be a good idea to leave cards in this game.
The best bets in this game are
Over 1.5 goals
Over 2.5 goals
Both teams to score
Liverpool to win and both teams to score
3+ corners each team
9+ match corners
A goal in each half and 3+ corners in each half

Everton vs Sheffield United match preview
Sheffield United have failed to score in 9 of their last 12 league games and they have conceded an average of 2.37 goals per game in their last 8 league games. Everton have only scored an average of 0.80 goals per game in their last 10 league games and they have kept 4 clean sheets in their last 6 league games.
Total goals is not an appealing market here, the only bet we would look to take is Everton to win a low scoring game. We feel there is a very good chance that Everton win this game 1-0, 2-0 or 2-1.
Everton only average 3.57 corners per game in their last 7 league games and Sheffield United average 3.6 corners per game in their last 5 league games. It would be no surprise to see both sides, particularly Everton, take more corners here as they will have more possession and territory than they would against other teams in the league, but corners is still not an overly appealing market here.
The booking stats are not bad but they are not impressive enough for us to want to get involved here. We feel this is a game that Everton could control and they look to play at a slow pace as there is no doubt they have the edge in terms of quality.
The best bet in this game is Everton to win a low scoring game 1-0, 2-0 or 2-1.
