The Accumulator - five-fold @ 22!

Chelsea to beat Middlesbrough @ 1.54

By Robin Bairner:

The Blues may be in turmoil, but on the field, they are considerably more reliable than either Man United or Tottenham (who Boro have already knocked out) and have a good deal more strength in depth than both.

Over 2.5 goals in Aston Villa vs Arsenal @ 1.86

By Greg Lea:

Steven Gerrard’s men lost to West Ham United last time out, but they won three in a row before that. They have also scored 10 goals in their last four outings and will pose problems for Arsenal’s backline. This could be an entertaining, goal-laden affair at Villa Park.

Will Harry Kane be among the goals when Spurs play West Ham on Sunday?

Wolves to beat Leeds @ 2.22

By Greg Lea:

Leeds still have the worst defensive record in the division, and are without a clean sheet since November. Wolves can take advantage of their enduring frailty at the back.

Both teams to score and over 2.5 goals in Spurs vs West Ham @ 2.06

By Greg Lea:

The Hammers and Spurs are involved in the top-four battle and West Ham have the attacking quality to find the net against a shaky Tottenham backline. We should see goals at both ends in this one.

Crystal Palace to beat Everton @ 2.16

By Greg Lea:

Selhurst Park will be bouncing for the visit of Everton, who have already lost at this ground in the Premier League this season. Palace are in a good place right now and they should get the job done in front of their passionate home fans.
