Arsenal vs Nottingham Forest

Premier Odds: Arsenal -2.5 +130 vs Nottingham Forest +2.5 -166

Emirates Stadium, London, England

Arsenal is on fire. In their last 3, the Gunners have beaten Barcelona 5-3, AS Monaco via penalty kicks for the Emirates Cup title and Man City via penalty kicks for the FA Community Shield.

For sure, Arsenal is gearing up to challenge the Sky Blues for the Premier title this season. The first match happens on the Gunners’ pitch. So a blowout win should happen.

AFC Bournemouth vs West Ham United

Premier Odds: Bournemouth +169 vs West Ham United +158
Saturday, August 12 at 10:00 am ET | Matchweek 1
Vitality Stadium, Bournemouth, England

West Ham didn’t play well in their final club friendly before the season, falling to Leverkusen 4-0. But we shouldn’t hold that against the slight favorite in this.

Before the 0-4 loss to Leverkusen, West Ham had won 3 straight, including beating Tottenham 3-2 in a friendly.

Bournemouth won their last friendly but this match counts. West Ham gets the nod.

Sheffield United vs Crystal Palace

Premier Odds: Sheffield United +202 vs Crystal Palace +141
Saturday, August 12 at 12:30 pm ET | Matchweek 1
Bramall Lane, Sheffield, England

Last season, Sheffield United played well enough in the English League Championship to grab the promotion to the Premier. On Saturday, though, Sheffield and their fans will see the difference between ELC competition and EPL competition.

Crystal Palace heads into this off a club friendly victory over quality French Ligue 1 team Lyon. CP is a solid franchise. Palace gets the win.

Newcastle United vs Aston Villa

Premier Odds: Newcastle United -129 vs Aston Villa +340
Saturday, August 12 at 12:30 pm ET | Matchweek 1
St. James’ Park, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, England

Both these teams will challenge squads like Tottenham and Man United for fourth on the standings this season. Aston shows 3 wins and 2 draws in their last 5.

Newcastle is in better form with 3 straight wins over Brighton, Fiorentina, and Villarreal. The win against Villarreal, 4-0, speaks to Newcastle’s quality. The home team prevails.

Brentford vs Tottenham Hotspur

Premier Odds: Brentford +176 vs Tottenham +145
Sunday, August 13 at 9:00 am ET | Matchweek 1
Gtech Community Stadium, Brentford, England

It’s difficult to know where Tottenham stands. The Hotspur had a terrible season but should be better because the franchise is more stable heading into the new season.
Still, Brentford is a tough team to beat. The home underdog in this drew against Lille in their last. Taking a shot on the home dog makes sense.

Chelsea vs Liverpool

Premier Odds: Chelsea +182 vs Liverpool +138
Sunday, August 13 at 11:30 am ET | Matchweek 1
Stamford Bridge, London, England

The weekend’s top UEFA League match pits the Blues against the Reds. On paper, Liverpool gets the win because they have more talent.

But this happens at Stamford Bridge. Also, Chelsea appears to have solved their issues from last season. We should expect a more focused Blues side. Chelsea takes the victory.
