These matches are scheduled as midweek fixtures held over Tuesday 28th and Wednesday 29th January 2014. The highlight could be Man City’s visit to White Hart Lane.  Although City have been not-so-good on their travels, Tottenham Hotspur have been vulnerable at home.

Plus, there is the other massive match – the Merseyside derby at Anfield where Liverpool will be needing to be at their electrifying best to see off Everton who are having an impressive debut season under Roberto Martinez.

Time for this round – EPL Week 20 predictions as the battle for tipster supremacy rolls on.  The new year action begins with Swansea taking on Man City – will City be vulnerable away from home again in the early kickoff, we wonder.  Stoke host Everton who are looking like possible top 4 contenders but the Potters will test them well.  Southampton and Chelsea looks like another great match up, with Liverpool looking to extract sweet revenge on Hull for the hiding they received in the reverse fixture.  The Gunners will be looking to continue their good home record, this time up against Cardiff City who will need to be at their best.  The Black Cats need a win and Aston Villa won’t be walkovers by any stretch of the imagination.  Crystal Palace host Norwich in what looks to be an pretty evenly matched affair on paper, while Fulham have their East London rivals looking to grab points at the Cottage.  The Baggies host the Geordies and boy are these games hard to predict this season.  In the late game, Spurs travel to the red side of Manchester hoping to avoid another big score against them this time.

Following the international break it’s EPL Week 12 predictions time – and here are your predictions and guide to betting.

EPL Week 12 Predictions: Everton v Liverpool betting preview

Who could have predicted at the end of last season how these two teams would be doing so well – and that makes this one huge.  Particularly for Everton, whose squad is not as deep and they need to get the points at home here against the rampant Reds.  Liverpool, with their forward firepower, start slight bookie favourites at 2.50 and the Toffees at 2.90.  Probably the more likely result could be a draw, and that’s where the best odds of 3.25 can be had.

Best Bookie Betting Odds:  Everton win | Draw | Liverpool win

EPL Week 12 Predictions: Arsenal v  Southampton betting preview

What an interesting test this will be for Mauricio Pochettino’s Saints after they have impressed the pants off everyone so far with an away win at Liverpool and drawing with Manchester United at Old Trafford.  This away game will be an even sterner examination against the league leaders though, who are surely not going to get mugged like the others have.  Arsenal are overwhelming favourites at 1.66 and very good returns can be made if you back Southampton to leave the Emirates with any points at all.

EPL Week 12 Predictions: Fulham v Swansea  betting preview

Anyone’s guess how Fulham will decide to play this week but you’s have to fancy the Swans here, who are the bookmakers’ favourite going into this one. Fulham need to pull their finger out or it’s relegation looming.

Best Bookie Betting Odds: Fulham win | Draw | Swansea win

EPL Week 12 Predictions: Hull v Crystal Palace betting preview

Hull are a pretty solid outfit and shold easily see off the at times woeful Palace at home.  Odds for a Palace win at 4.50 might be tempting for those thinking a surprise turnaround in form could be on the cards.  Could the Eagles dare?

Best Bookie Betting Odds:  Hull win | Draw | Crystal Palace win

EPL Week 12 Predictions: Newcastle v Norwich betting preview

Newcastle have put in some better performances of late and the win at Spurs was unexpected in most quarters.  Norwich have had their struggles and you’d expect them to continue at St James’ Park although Chris Hughton would surely ‘love it’ if his team could prove a point for his managerial skills.  Big odds for a Norwich win at 4.50 – but the smart money is on the Magpies.

Best Bookie Betting Odds: Newcastle win | Draw | Norwich win

EPL Week 12 Predictions: Stoke City v Sunderland betting preview

Stoke get to test out the reinvigorated Black Cats this week and bookies expect them to get over the line at 2.15.  Get 3.60 for a Sunderland win.  Big odds of 26.00 for Sunderland at half time then Stoke win – or 41.00 for the the reverse (Stoke lead at half time then Sunderland win).

Best Bookie Betting Odds: Stoke City win | Draw | Sunderland win

EPL Week 12 Predictions: West Ham v Chelsea betting preview

The Hammers should be hapless at home as Chelsea look to continue their march up the table, or so think the bookmakers.  5.00 for a home win.  Here’s a bet to make it interesting:  Half time score 1-0, full time 1-3 at 126.00.

Best Bookie Betting Odds: West Ham | Draw | Chelsea win

EPL Week 12 Predictions: Man City v Tottenham betting preview

Tough one for Spurs here as Man City have dominated at home this season and this will surely continue against a Spurs team that are big on possession but short on goals.  That said, Spurs have been good away from the Lane but their lack of firepower will surely be the weakness.  5.50 for a Tottenham win.

Best Bookie Betting Odds:  Manchester City win | Draw | Tottenham win

EPL Week 12 Predictions: Cardiff  v Man Utd betting preview

5.50 here for a Cardiff win, and if they could repeat their heroics like with Man City it would bring the crowd to life.  United are hitting form though and will probably edge this one.

EPL Week 12 Predictions: West Brom v Aston Villa betting preview

Monday night’s TV game sees the Baggies go at it with local rivals Villa.   West Brom start home favourites but if Benteke can get back on form for the visitors it will be a tight match. Anyone’s guess this – probably a draw looks safest.

EPL Week 11 Predictions: Aston Villa v Cardiff City betting preview

Villa host Cardiff who are on the up again after winning the first Welsh Premier League derby.  This week the Bluebirds who play in red are at fairly long odds of 4.00 to take all 3 points.  Villa at1.95 with 3.40 for the draw.  Benteke is back but the goals have dried up so this really could go either way.

EPL Week 11 Predictions: Chelsea v  West Brom betting preview

Chelsea will be looking to bounce back after the defeat to Newcastle, tipped correctly by Betmeister last week. At home and buoyed by their midweek Champions’ League win, you can see why you can get odds of 11.00 for a Baggies win – it is very unlikely.  However, 5.00 for a draw might be tempting as this Blues team is not infallible.

EPL Week 11 Predictions: Crystal Palace v Everton  betting preview

Interesting one, this. Palace playing on home turf are so unfancied you can get odds of 6.50 on the for the win.  This could be turn out to be great value if they put in a good performance.  Everton are a solid unit and should prevail, though.

EPL Week 11 Predictions: Liverpool v Fulham betting preview

Two losers from last weekend meet at Anfield.  It would be one of the mega-shocks of the season if Fulham get any points here and Martin Jol will be sweating now.  Fulham surely won’t win as they don’t travel well and bookies have them at 13.00 to win, whereas a draw is 5.50 which could be remotely possible if very doubtful.  Reds to win easily.

Best Bookie Betting Odds:  Liverpool win | Draw | Fulham win

EPL Week 11 Predictions: Southampton v Hull City betting preview

The Saints at home up against a Hull City side coming off another win, this time over Sunderland. Bookies fully expect Southampton to take the points at home and you’d be brave to bet against that wisdom.

Best Bookie Betting Odds: Southampton win | Draw | Hull City win

EPL Week 11 Predictions: Norwich City v West Ham betting preview

Two more teams really struggling this season meet at Carrow Road. Take your pick, these two are evenly matched with Norwich very slight favourites.  Best odds are for the draw (3.25) which would not be unreasonable to back.

Best Bookie Betting Odds: Norwich City win | Draw | West Ham win

EPL Week 11 Predictions: Tottenham Hotspur v Newcastle United betting preview

Spurs have been iffy at home so far so it will be interesting to see if they can fire against a Magpies side that are flying high after shooting down title contenders Chelsea. Should they reproduce that form again and manage to get even a goal against the miserly Tottenham defence it could be another 3 points for the Magpies who are out to 6.50 to win at the Lane.  Catch it on Sky Sports.

Best Bookie Betting Odds: Tottenham win | Draw | Newcastle United win

EPL Week 11 Predictions: Sunderland v Man City betting preview

The Black Cats face another big team this week, one who are finding top gear again in Man City. A home win is currently at 8.00 for Sunderland and don’t they need the points.  Difficult to imagine City letting this one slip but they have already dropped several points from their road trips this season so maybe this is worth considering.

Best Bookie Betting Odds:  Sunderland win | Draw | Manchester City win

EPL Week 11 Predictions: Man Utd v Arsenal betting preview

Match of the week, this one.  Despite being way ahead at the top of the league, Arsenal do not start favourites at Old Trafford which may surprise some.  An Arsenal win gets odds of 3.30 with United at 2.25 and a draw at 3.30.  Should be a cracker.

Best Bookie Betting Odds:  Man Utd win | Draw | Arsenal win

EPL Week 11 Predictions: Swansea City v Stoke City betting preview

The Swans will need to get back to their best if Stoke continue their good form here. But you’d expect Swansea to bounce back after the derby disappointment and backing a Stoke win gets you 4.33 odds.

EPL Week 10 Predictions: Newcastle v Chelsea betting preview

Newcastle and Chelsea meet at St James’ Park with the respective teams having very different runs of form.  The Magpies, having been beaten by local rivals Sunderland despite playing pretty well are rank outsiders at 6.00 in this early (12:45) Saturday kick off game.  These odds look pretty good and a draw is at 3.75.  Fernando Torres is looking sharp again and having a great season, with Chelsea deservedly starting favourites but Newcastle at home will be desperate for points.

EPL Week 10 Predictions: Fulham v  Manchester United betting preview

Fulham host Manchester United at Craven Cottage and this is a game that will see one of the managers under a lot of scrutiny if either loses.  United managed to stage a last gasp comeback at home against Stoke last weekend, sparing David Moyes’ blushes.  Fulham have been up and down in a real Jekyll and Hyde season, and were comprehensively outplayed by Southampton.  The Saints are a fine team but Fulham were awful, and Martin Jol should be nervous.  United are favourites to win at 1.60 with the Cottagers quoted at 5.50 for a home victory.  A draw looks good value for punters at 4.0.

EPL Week 10 Predictions: Hull City v Sunderland betting preview

What a difference a week makes.  Before beating Newcastle, it was hard to see much hope for Sunderland in any fixture.  And with Hull getting beaten by Tottenham Hotspur twice in the space of a few days (league and Capital One Cup) albeit narrowly the Tigers are on a downer.  Bookies have Hull City as home favourites at 2.25 and Sunderland are at 3.30 for a rare away win.  If the Black Cats do play with the fire they had against the Magpies you could see them nicking this but Hull are well organised and hard to break down.

Best Bookie Betting Odds:  Hull City win | Draw | Sunderland win

EPL Week 10 Predictions: Manchester City v Norwich City betting preview

On the face of it, Manchester City v Norwich City looks like a pretty straightforward prediction.  But the big talking point from the last week is England goalkeeper Joe Hart being dropped for Costel Pantilimon. Without Vincent Kompany and with Hart’s howler City were again beaten away from home last week.  However, at home Manchester City have won every game and Norwich manager Chris Hughton must be dreading this as Man City look to bounce back.  You can help yourself to a massive 15.00 odds for a Norwich win with 6.50 for the draw.  The home team are unbackable at 1.20.

Best Bookie Betting Odds: Manchester City win | Draw | Norwich City win

EPL Week 10 Predictions: Stoke City v Southampton betting preview

Battle of the red and white stripes.  The Saints look to be the better of the two, even though this is at the Brittania. Stoke played well at Old Trafford and were a bit unlucky not to come away with points.  Potters manager Mark Hughes will need to get his players well organised to score against this Southampton team that have conceded the least number of goals in the league. Saints start favourites but you get the feeling that this could easily go the way of Stoke who are at 3.00 for a home win.

Best Bookie Betting Odds: Stoke City win | Draw | Southampton win

EPL Week 10 Predictions: West Brom v Crystal Palace betting preview

West Brom up against the hapless Palace.  Odds on an Eagles win at The Hawthorns are at 6.00 which could be good value.  The way in which West Brom were taken apart by some simply sizzling Liverpool goals would have undone any team and you’d expect the Baggies to bounce back at home against a struggling team.

Best Bookie Betting Odds: West Brom win | Draw | Crystal Palace win

EPL Week 10 Predictions: West Ham United v Aston Villa betting preview

West Ham and Villa.  I always found it hard to tell these two teams apart as a kid, and it’ll be hard to predict which one will come away on top here.  The Hammers are up and down but at home are slight favourites against Villa at 2.25 for the win.  A draw or Villa win at 3.30.

Best Bookie Betting Odds: West Ham win | Draw | Aston Villa win

EPL Week 10 Predictions: Arsenal v Liverpool betting preview

The most eagerly anticipated fixture of the round. Arsenal are home favourites at 2.29 but have suffered injury blows and Liverpool are a force to be reckoned with again.  Super Suarez and Sturridge were on fire last week and a repeat of that kind of performance would see them win for sure at the Emirates.  This is going to be hard to predict but Liverpool win at 3.25 looks to be pretty good value.

Best Bookie Betting Odds:  Arsenal win | Draw | Liverpool win

EPL Week 10 Predictions: Everton v Tottenham Hotspur betting preview

Everton coming up against Tottenham is another game where two teams are going to be extremely evenly matched and at Goodison the Toffees may have the advantage. On 18 and 19 points respectively, Spurs were fortunate with a penalty decision to get a home win over Hull last week.  However, as AVB keeps pointing out, despite one loss over leaders Arsenal Tottenham have won every other away match. Everton start as favourites at 2.50, Spurs are at 2.90 and a draw could be the sensible option at 3.25.

Best Bookie Betting Odds:  Everton win | Draw | Tottenham win

EPL Week 10 Predictions: Cardiff City v Swansea City betting preview

The Swans are on the road after two home games but it’s only a short trip to their Welsh neighbours for the first ever Premier League Welsh derby between these two. The visitors start as away favourites with bookies at 2.29 and better odds can in fact be had on a draw (3.30) than a home win (3.20).  With derbies anything can happen and the form book sometimes gets thrown out of the window so a Cardiff home win will fans at full voice could be a good tip.

EPL Week 9 Predictions: Crystal Palace v Arsenal betting preview

Live on BT Sport 1. Palace were thrashed at home on Monday by Fulham and now face the table-topping Gunners who will be looking to bounce back after that home Champions League loss.  You don’t often see a home team quoted at 9.00 for a win and 4.75 for a draw but that is the state of Crystal Palace at the moment.  Smart money is on Arsenal but the ‘new manager’ effect (if Palace have one by then) could play a part.  Palace surely would take a draw.

EPL Week 9 Predictions: Liverpool v West Brom betting preview

The Reds are having their best start in many years and it should resume at Anfield on Saturday against West Brom after dropping 2 points against 10-man Newcastle.  You have to remember West Brom’s win at Old Trafford a few weeks back though and wonder if the Baggies can’t rise to the challenge again.  Great odds of around 8.00 for a WBA win can be had.

Best Bookie Betting Odds:  Liverpool win | Draw | West Brom win

EPL Week 9 Predictions: Manchester United v Stoke City betting preview

How times change quickly from one season to the next.  Most teams are now arriving at Old Trafford thinking that they are in with a good chance of grabbing points, which was unthinkable earlier this year.  However, this is Stoke City who really are not in United’s class and struggling to score goals.  Odds of 5.00 for a draw and 10.00 for a Stoke win tells the story.

Best Bookie Betting Odds: Manchester United win | Draw | Stoke City win

EPL Week 9 Predictions: Norwich City v Cardiff City betting preview

Cardiff City manager Malky Mackay needs more from his Cardiff team that showed such early season promise. Whilst the long West to East trip to Norwich is going to give him a lot of thinking time to come up with a plan to beat the Canaries, but Norwich should win.  They are in need of points and odds for a home victory are shortest.

Best Bookie Betting Odds: Norwich City win | Draw | Cardiff City win

EPL Week 9 Predictions: Southampton v Fulham betting preview

To round out Saturday’s fixtures, the Saints host Fulham in a match live on Sky Sports 1.  Everyone has been impressed with Southampton since they have been back in the Prem, and with Fulham’s (normally) dodgy away form you would be brave to back the Cottagers who are quoted at around 5.5 for an away win.  A draw at 4.00 is pretty tempting, and if Fulham can keep the confidence of Monday’s trip to Palace going, who knows?

EPL Week 9 Predictions: Sunderland v Newcastle betting preview

The Tyne and Wear derby, live on Sky Sports 1, is always full of passion and Sunderland are really going to have to show it to get pull themselves out of the Premier League gutter.  These games are always tough to predict but even though this is at the Stadium of Light, Newcastle are slight favourites to win. 3.25 for a draw seems a good bet.

Best Bookie Betting Odds: Sunderland win | Draw | Newcastle win

EPL Week 9 Predictions: Chelsea v Manchester City betting preview

It’s battle of the oil money funded teams and both are looking strong.  Usually these games are tight low scoring affairs and Chelsea being at home are bookie favourites.  Points will be dropped here which will suit Arsenal and Liverpool, and the chances of a City win probably depends whether or not Vincent Kompany is fit in time.

Best Bookie Betting Odds:  Chelsea win | Draw | Manchester City win

EPL Week 9 Predictions: Swansea City v  West Ham United betting preview

The Swans got a first home league win of the season last week and should make it 2 in a row here against the Irons.  Although West Ham shocked every pundit with their first win at Tottenham this century a couple of weeks ago, but they go into this match without any fit recognised strikers.  If West Ham do manage to score, Swansea are capable of scoring more and are the big home favourites.

Best Bookie Betting Odds: Swansea City win | Draw | West Ham win

EPL Week 9 Predictions: Tottenham Hotspur v Hull City betting preview

Tottenham had a shock home defeat to West Ham last time they played at White Hart Lane and have actually enjoyed more success on the road.  Hull are doing very well and will prove a stern test for Spurs.  Most bookmakers have the Tigers at big odds for a win, perhaps ominously the same as you could’ve had for a West Ham win 2 weeks ago (7.5)?

Chelsea’s return to winning ways saw them lead the table on Saturday night, prompting Jose to ask ‘What crisis?’.  Tottenham then got away from Cardiff with a last minute winner on Sunday and leap-frogged the blues into second place.  This should be a real test of character for AVB’s men who must win against the top teams if they are to remain in the elusive top 4.  Mourinho may play Willian to rub Tottenham’s nose in the fact that he poached the player and AVB will have his own points to prove.  Chelsea are the current bookies favourites to win at White Hart Lane with the biggest odds on a draw.  The previous meeting this year at Stamford Bridge finished 2-2, incidentally.

Aston Villa v Manchester City betting preview

Villa face a red hot City and it is hard to see them coming away from this one with points.  You can get big odds on a home AVFC win (as big as 6.00 at time of writing), as City are firm favourites after their demolition of the reigning champions and bitter rivals on the red side of Manchester.

Best Bookie Betting Odds:  Aston Villa win  | Draw | Manchester City win

Fulham v Cardiff betting preview

Fulham are due a home win and that’s the way the bookmakers currently see it.  Perhaps good value on a draw which is not much less of a return than a Cardiff away win.  Could be a low scoring affair.

Best Bookie Betting Odds:  Fulham win | Draw |  Cardiff win

Hull v West Ham betting preview

Hull City Tigers begin as slight home favourites as this evenly contested Premier League season continues to unfold.  West Ham will give stern resistance and this could easily go either way.  Best odds currently are on a drawn game.

Best Bookie Betting Odds: Hull City Tigers win | Draw | West Ham United win

Manchester United  v West Bromwich Albion betting preview

With United smarting from their thrashing at Man City, West Brom must be shuddering with fear.  To win at United is a long shot for the Baggies (or any team) at any time but David Moyes will accept nothing less than a comfortable victory.  The bookmakers expect a romp and very decent odds can be had on a draw.  A United win is surely a banker.

Best Bookie Betting Odds: Manchester United win | Draw | West Bromwich Albion win

Southampton v Crystal Palace betting preview

The Saints are having a great season and start at red hot favourites for Palace’s visit to St Mary’s. You can get tidy odds on a draw in this fixture and great odds for a Crystal Palace win.

Best Bookie Betting Odds: Southampton win | Draw | Crystal Palace win

Swansea v Arsenal betting preview

Arsenal are on fire at the moment and deservedly top the table after that first game wake-up call.  Swansea at home is going to be a real test and surely the Gunners will drop points at some stage again.  Arsenal start as slight bookmakers favourites but if Swansea can continue their recent form they can get a result.

Best Bookie Betting Odds: Swansea City win | Draw | Arsenal win

Stoke v Norwich betting preview

Sunday’s lunch time kick-off sees Stoke as the favourites at the Britannia.   Like all teams, Norwich will find it hard going there but especially as their form has been poor of late.  Can Chris Hughton conjure something here and get back to winning ways?

Best Bookie Betting Odds:  Stoke City win | Draw | Norwich City win

Sunderland v Liverpool betting preview

Whilst Liverpool lost for the first time this season against Southampton, Sunderland are in a bad way, have sacked Di Canio and you’d expect an away win for the Reds.  Liverpool will be desperate to bounce back and with Suarez possibly returning they are the big favourites.  The Black Cats will need something very special to happen to win here.

Best Bookie Betting Odds: Sunderland win | Draw | Liverpool win

Everton v Newcastle United betting preview

The Toffees had a stirring away victory last time out and look really sharp and settled as a team under Roberto Martinez.  Newcastle were stung by the home loss to Hull and will find it even tougher going at Goodison Park though.  Big odds available for a Magpies win.

Best Bookie Betting Odds: Everton win | Draw | Newcastle United win

EPL Week 4 predictions saw BM pick up 5 correct results including exact scores on Sunderland 1-3 Arsenal and Spurs 2-0 Norwich. LS picked up 4 correct results.

Norwich v Aston Villa betting preview

Two teams in need of points, Norwich and Villa will both fancy their chances here. We are divided both ways but Norwich at home should be strong and Villa have struggled since the season opener.

Betting predictions:  3-2 (BM), 0-2 (LS).  Click on prediction to go to site with the best odds.

Liverpool v Southampton betting preview

Top dogs Liverpool are due a loss at some point but we agree that at Anfield they should come out on top with the Kop behind them. Southampton are decent and would be worth a few quid on getting something out of this match though.

Betting predictions:  2-0 (BM), 3-0 (LS). Click on prediction to go to site with the best odds.

Newcastle v Hull betting preview

Newcastle can continue their good start to the season here and make things hard for Hull.  Sorry, Hull City Tigers.  They would do well to hold the Magpies away which is what LS thinks will happen in a goalless affair.

Betting predictions: 1-0 (BM), 0-0 (LS). Click on prediction to go to site with the best odds.

West Brom v Sunderland betting preview

The Baggies and Black Cats are propping up the table with the poorest of records and still winless after 4 games.  LS reckons they’ll both remain winless while BM says West Brom will grab all 3 points at The Hawthorns.

Betting predictions: 2-0 (BM), 2-2 (LS). Click on prediction to go to site with the best odds.

West Ham v Everton betting preview

Evertonians will be over the moon with the defeat of Chelsea but when they play away it is often a less intense display and West Ham will be tough.  BM says a draw – LS reckons the Hammers to lose on home soil.

Betting predictions: 2-2 (BM), 1-2 (LS). Click on prediction to go to site with the best odds.

Chelsea v Fulham betting preview

A really poor week by Chelsea’s normally high standards.  2 losses in a week. Fulham are not up to getting near them at home though.  Even the most optimistic Fulham fan would admit that.  Great odds for a Fulham result of any sort though.

Betting predictions: 2-0 (BM), 2-1 (LS). Click on prediction to go to site with the best odds.

Arsenal v Stoke betting preview

The Gunners are flying high and you would expect them to continue on their great run with a comfortable victory over Stoke at The Emirates Stadium.  Stoke have quality but their game plan will be to stifle Arsenal’s rhythm.  It probably won’t work.

Betting predictions: 3-1 (BM), 2-0 (LS). Click on prediction to go to site with the best odds.

Crystal Palace v Swansea betting preview

Palace are not looking too sharp but LS reckons they are winners here against a potentially tired Swansea after their Europa League Thursday night outing.  BM says that the Swans will still have a goal too much for Crystal Palace.

Betting predictions:  1-2 (BM), 2-1 (LS). Click on prediction to go to site with the best odds.

Cardiff v Tottenham betting preview

This is an interesting one.  Christian Eriksen showed us last week what he is capable of and appears to be one of the bargains of the season. However, if Cardiff can recreate that incredible atmosphere at home again such as with the win over Man City then anything is possible.  I say Spurs will have the quality to get over the line – BM reckons a draw.  Either way, we expect a tight contest.

Betting predictions: 1-2 (BM), 1-1 (LS). Click on prediction to go to site with the best odds.

Man City v Man Utd betting preview

The big one of the weekend.  Both teams have identical records and the noise is going to be intense – which way it goes nobody knows.  We’re split on the result but it has to be said that United were purring in their Champions League midweeker.  City had weaker opposition in theirs but this is anyone’s guess.

Here are your EPL Week 4 Predictions. The tipsters Betmeister (BM) and Little Sidekick (LS) are neck and neck as we continue to go head to head with football predictions throughout the 2013-14 English Premier League football season. Currently, the wily Lawro is ahead of the pack.

EPL Week 3 predictions saw Arsenal thwart Tottenham’s bid to lead the table and Liverpool overcome Manchester United, both by  virtue of 1-0 home wins.  Manchester City returned to winning ways as expected and that was one of the very few results BM got right!

Manchester United v Crystal Palace betting preview

David Moyes has brought in a quality midfield recruit in Marouane Fellaini and will be expecting to see him part of a team that should dominate Saturday’s opposition.  However, Crystal Palace have shown that they are no easy-beats and will be relishing the challenge of Old Trafford. Having done good business on transfer deadline day, Palace should be stronger but it is hard to see them get much better than a share of the points here.

Betting predictions:  3-1 (BM), 4-0 (LS).  Click on prediction to go to site with the best odds.

Stoke v Manchester City betting preview

Stoke are exceeding the expectations of many pundits already and are back where they perform best – The Britannia.  Man City surely cannot harbour realistic title hopes if they drop more points in this game and Manuel Pellegrini may suddenly find himself in the running for the chop if they do.

Betting predictions:  2-2 (BM), 0-2 (LS). Click on prediction to go to site with the best odds.

Aston Villa v Newcastle betting preview

Villa need to get their season back on track after their stunning first match of the season against Arsenal. And Newcastle look to be just the team that they will want to play to do that.  The Magpies have scored just one in three and the Geordie natives are getting restless.  Belgian striker Benteke  will look to capitalise on Saturday and only a solid performance from Newcastle will do if they are to get out of this with anything.

Betting predictions: 2-1 (BM), 2-0 (LS). Click on prediction to go to site with the best odds.

Fulham v West Brom betting preview

Form would suggest a Cottagers win given their love of playing at home.  West Brom have start this season in the starkest contrast to the last and have yet to score a goal, yet Fulham couldn’t get near scoring against Newcastle.  This one is ripe for a change of fortune and it could well come in the form of star striker Dimitar Berbatov.  He is a class act and should lead the team to a win here.

Betting predictions: 1-0 (BM), 3-1 (LS). Click on prediction to go to site with the best odds.

Hull v Cardiff betting preview

A difficult to predict outcome is this clash of the promoted clubs.  Cardiff were stunning against Manchester City but that was at home and Hull managed to grind out a result playing with 10 men against Norwich.  LS thinks Cardiff will have too much for Hull at the KC whilst BM can’t separate the teams.

Betting predictions: 2-2 (BM), 1-2 (LS). Click on prediction to go to site with the best odds.

Sunderland v Arsenal betting preview

The arrival of Mesut Ozil is the big focus of this match, as the Gunners look to have profited from Gareth Bale going to Real Madrid in a roundabout way.  This guy is worth every penny and Arsenal will be looking to run riot over a currently shambolic Sunderland.  The Black Cats are still without a win and this could get ugly for Paolo Di Canio unless he can inspire his team to a much improved performance.

Betting predictions: 1-3 (BM), 0-2 (LS). Click on prediction to go to site with the best odds.

Tottenham v Norwich betting preview

If Spurs are going to show that they have what it takes to get into the top four this season, this is a match they simply must win.  Norwich have enjoyed success at White Hart Lane in recent times and Saturday will reveal a lot about Tottenham’s progress. With an expensively assembled new set of players, Spurs do look strong on paper and need to score their first goal from open play. With all the expectation on the home team, things could play into the Canaries’ hands again.

Betting predictions: 2-0 (BM), 3-0 (LS). Click on prediction to go to site with the best odds.

Everton v Chelsea betting preview

Chelsea visit Everton and having started striker-less against Man United, it will be interesting to see how Chelsea go into this match against the Toffees. Mourinho seems to still set up his team ‘not to lose’, but now he has Samuel Eto’o in his team, the Cameroonian will surely get the nod start ahead of Torres and Ba.  Opening his account with a goal would be no surprise for a man of his star quality.

Everton are arguably stronger than before the transfer window despite the sale of Fellaini but they needed to be. Jelavic will be left to be the main source of goals but he has hardly been prolific of late.

Betting predictions:  1-1 (BM), 0-2 (LS). Click on prediction to go to site with the best odds.

Southampton v West Ham betting preview

Both of these teams have identical records so far but the Hammers are looking weak in attack at the moment.  The Saints on the other hand have England striker Rickie Lambert and have added record signing Pablo Osvaldo to the team.  They look good and should push for a win at home.

Betting predictions: 2-1 (BM), 1-1 (LS). Click on prediction to go to site with the best odds.

Swansea v Liverpool betting preview

Swansea host top-of-the-league Liverpool and will look to test whether they are in a ‘false position’.  Surely another win for the Reds would have them as realistic title contenders given that Luis Suarez is still to come back?  It is hard to see a way past the Liverpool defence but the Swans will be pushing for a home win.

Betmeister picked up 9 points in week 1, aided by a perfect prediction of Man City’s 4-0 victory. Little Sidekick picked up just the 2 points but as it is often said, the season is a marathon – not a sprint. Although, LS really should have more faith in his beloved Fulham!
