Top EPL Games to Bet and Watch this Week From Sep. 25th to 27th
Aston Villa +1 ½ (-142) vs Manchester United -1 ½ (+107)
- When: Saturday, Sep. 25
Man United has won 3-of-4. The lone loss happened versus the Young Boys in their first Champions League match. United beat Villa 3-1 on May 9 before they acquired Sancho and Ronaldo. Man U should cover this handicap.
Soccer Pick: Manchester United
Manchester City +160 vs Chelsea +160
- When: Saturday, Sep. 25
The match of the weekend pits two favorites to win the Champions League and the English Premier against each other. Chelsea, no doubt, has the edge because this takes place at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea has won the last 3 head-to-head. The Blues should be offering much lower odds than what they show. That makes the home squad an overlay play.
Soccer Pick: Chelsea
West Ham United +137 vs Leeds United +165
- When: Saturday, Sep. 25
Both teams are in decent enough form to warrant a look. Of the two, West Ham looks better. The road squad won the last head-to-head. But the slight difference in odds makes Leeds the more optimal bet because this happens on their pitch. We’re going with Leeds.
Soccer Pick: Leeds United
Burnley +480 vs Leicester City -188
- When: Saturday, Sep. 25
Burnley won their last but that was versus Rochdale at the Carabao Cup. These two drew in the last head-to-head. But Leicester requires a win. They’ve drawn and lost 3 times in their last 5. The lone victory happened versus Norwich City.
Soccer Pick: Leicester City
Norwich City +440 vs Everton -175
- When: Saturday, Sep. 25
Although Everton has lost 2 straight, one of the losses happened via penalty kicks at the Carabao Cup. Norwich is on a 4-match losing streak. Since this takes place at Everton, the chalk should prevail.
Soccer Pick: Everton
Newcastle +200 vs Watford +132
- When: Saturday, Sep. 25
Newcastle has drawn 3 and lost twice in their last 5. Watford has lost 3-of-4. The home team’s victory happened against Stoke City in the English Carabao Cup. Newcastle should offer lower odds because these two are on the same level. We’ll grab the +200.
Soccer Pick: Newcastle
Liverpool -1 ½ (+127) vs Brentford +1 ½ (-169)
- When: Saturday, Sep. 25
Liverpool has 13 points, which puts them in a tie with Chelsea and Man United atop the EPL Standings. Brentford is a decent club. The home team has won 2 straight, including beating Wolverhampton 2-0 on Sep. 18. Pool should have a tough time winning by more than a goal, but they offer better handicap odds. Taking a shot on the Reds makes sense.
Soccer Pick: Liverpool
Wolverhampton +180 vs Southampton +148
- When: Sunday, Sep. 26
Wolverhampton won the last head-to-head. So even though this happens on Southampton’s pitch, the odds make the Wanderers a decent play. The road team gets the call.
Soccer Pick: Wolverhampton
Tottenham +205 vs Arsenal +129
- When: Sunday, Sep. 26
Arsenal has won 3-of-5. Tottenham has lost 2-of-3 with a draw. But although the Gunners look like the better play, the victories were against overmatched squads. Man City blasted Arsenal 5-0 and Chelsea dusted the home team 2-0. The Hotspur could surprise.
Soccer Pick: Tottenham
Brighton & Hove +149 vs Crystal Palace +185
- When: Monday, Sep. 27
Brighton & Hove has won 4-of-5, including beating Leicester on Sep. 19. Crystal has a single victory in their last 5. But Palace gets home pitch advantage. Also, Brighton is due for a letdown after the victory against LC.
Soccer Pick: Crystal Palace
