Premier League Betting Tips: Manchester City, Brentford and Chelsea to win

The footballing action is coming thick and fast and with clubs balancing European and domestic duties, this weekend's Premier League slate is an intriguing one. 

Luton vs Spurs

Kick-off: 12:30 Saturday, TNT Sports 1 

Ange Postecoglou has charmed the country with his free-flowing football and charisma. His side's latest victory was a controversial one though. 

Under his tutelage, the North Londoners have scored 18 goals this season. Spurs were bound to out score their xG totals with two cheats of the metric in their side, James Maddison and Hueng-Min Son. 

Tottenham do rely on their attacking clout, they have only kept two clean sheets this campaign. 

Luton have found the net in each of their Premier League fixtures, barring trips to Craven Cottage and Stamford Bridge. Domestically, the Hatters have bagged in each of their last three and all of their games at the Kenny. 

Prediction: Both teams to score at 1.76

Manchester United vs Brentford

Kick-off: 15:00 Saturday

Manchester United were 10/1 to lift the Premier League trophy before a ball was kicked, they are now 100/1, which tells you everything you need to know about their start to the campaign. 

The Red Devils have only won 40% of their games this campaign, Erik ten Hag’s side's last two defeats have been particularly damning. They came within four days of one another, each at Old Trafford and the hosts didn’t go off longer than 1.58. 

It simultaneously toppled the imperious home form and moved Ten Hag into second favourite for the sack. Man Utd cannot be considered at the odds, there is some juice Brentford double chance. 

Prediction: Brentford double chance at 2.12

Burnley vs Chelsea 

Kick-off: 15:00 Saturday

The 2-0 victory at Craven Cottage on Monday could be the turning point of Chelsea’s season. The Blues were riddled with tension and you could see that melt away as they eased past their West London rivals. 

The underlying data suggested Mauricio Pochettino’s side have been unfortunate, misfiring at both ends. Now the shackles are off they should put Burnley to the sword. 

Vincent Kompany’s side have played five games against sides that finished in the top eight last season; they remain winless having conceded 14 goals. 

Prediction: Chelsea to win at 1.79

Wolves vs Aston Villa

Kick-off: 14:00 Sunday

It took Ollie Watkins five games to break his domestic duck but the England international is now well and truly back amongst the goals. 

He hit a hattrick against Brighton, his second of the season, and scored the only goal of the game at Stamford Bridge taking him to seven goals in 12 appearances. 

In the top flight, Watkins bagged 15 goals last season giving him a goals per 90 average of 0.43. He should relish the opportunity of facing a Wolves side that have only kept two clean sheets all season, vs Blackpool and Everton. 

Prediction: Ollie Watkins to score anytime at 2.6

Arsenal vs Manchester City

Kick-off: 16:30 Sunday, Sky Sports

A game fit for the Super Sunday title. Manchester City head to the Emirates as last season's title winners meet the runners up. 

It’s a fixture laced with narrative and sub plots, Oleksandr Zinchenko and Gabriel Jesus face their former club and it is master vs apprentice in the dugouts. 

Pep Guardiola has Mikel Arteta’s number, Arteta has only overseen one victory in 90 minutes, that’s 10 games and eight wins for Pep. 

City won the domestic meetings last campaign by an aggregate score of 7-2 and it is hard to see anything different here. 

Prediction: Manchester City win
