    Football betting tips: Pulisic to net again, Man Utd vs Arsenal plus Bamford on target – Premier League predictions

    THE fixtures are coming thick and fast as the Premier League continues this weekend.
    We have betting tips for you from three top-flight matches, starting in Lancashire where Chelsea are looking to end a run of two Premier League draws and get back to winning ways.

    Burnley vs Chelsea, Saturday 3pm (Sky Sports Box Office)

    The goals have dried up for the Blues – but this is the perfect opportunity to get back on track.
    Frank Lampard’s new-look side are coming into this one on the back of a 0-0 stalemate at Manchester United, where Chelsea mustered just ONE shot on target.
    Not ideal following their huge summer outlay on attacking talent.
    Burnley meanwhile continued their horror start to the new campaign with a 1-0 home defeat to Tottenham on Monday Night Football.

    It was a fairly horrible game at Turf Moor and worryingly for Sean Dyche, the type of match they usually get something out of.
    That loss leaves the home side winless in their opening five games and marooned in the early bottom three.
    There’s probably no better time to play this Chelsea side, though.
    Coming into this one off the back of another midweek Champions League slog, the Blues squad is creaking with this frantic schedule and there’s no way we’re taking the 8/15 on them beating Burnley this Saturday.

    They’re not to be trusted on the win market – just take the 3-3 against Southampton as an example – and as such you should look elsewhere.
    Before the goalless draw with United, Chelsea had netted six on the road in just two outings.
    It’s just at the other end where the problems seem to lie.

    Edouard Mendy looks a solid addition but the jury is rightly still out, while Kepa looks bound for a move away.
    Burnley are yet to score in any of their opening Premier League home games, drawing blanks against Southampton, Man City and Tottenham.
    That’s a tough trio – but we’re backing them to break that duck on Saturday.
    The Clarets have netted in five of the last six meetings between the sides here at Turf Moor, and Dyche will not fear this Chelsea backline.
    That’s a strong price at 8/11, while we’ve not got as many worries about the visitors at the other end.
    Lampard’s side will find their goalscoring touch again – particularly after banging in four on their Champions League trip to Russia – and Chelsea to score in BOTH halves is a very generous 5/4.
    Christian Pulisic is back fit and looks to be getting back up to speed with a new attacking unit behind him.
    He was the star man for Chelsea when football returned in Project Restart, bagging five goals from wide positions.
    If Lampard opts to start him – and wait for the teamsheet on this one – he’s the value pick in the field to score at anytime at 7/5 after netting in midweek.

    Man Utd vs Arsenal, Sunday 4.30pm (Sky Sports Main Event)
    15th vs 11th at Old Trafford – how times change, eh?
    This heavyweight fixture of the Premier League era has lost its shine in recent years, although the Gunners have won on just one of their last seventeen visits to Old Trafford.
    Mikel Arteta’s side were beaten by Leicester last time out and lacked a certain sharpness, perhaps feeling the pinch of Europa League action on the previous Thursday.
    Either way, that’s the rigours of the modern game and the Gunners can’t afford to fall to a third-straight league defeat here.
    Man Utd meanwhile continue to lurch from delirious highs one week to vicious lows the next.
    From beating PSG in their own backyard less than a fortnight ago, the doom merchants were back out in force as they drew a blank with Chelsea last weekend.
    So much so that #OleOut was trending UK wide.
    And after smashing five past Leipzig in midweek, will it be another case of crashing back down to Earth?

    It’s very much early days in the new season but it does feel like the Norwegian needs a first Premier League home victory of the campaign to settle the natives down.
    Do we think they’ll get it? Well we’re not going to be putting our hard-earned on it, that’s for sure.
    Rely on the goals market to win you the cash and let these two wildly-inconsistent sides throw a dice for the result.
    Both teams have scored in the last SEVEN head-to-head’s at Old Trafford, while four out of five United games in the Premier League this term have featured three or more goals.
    The combined over 2.5 goals and BTTS is a tempting even money and our big fancy for the weekend.
    United have a negative goal difference after that thrashing they received off Spurs and have shown themselves to start slowly this season.
    That was in evidence when Spurs scored twice within seven minutes, and up in Newcastle when Toon led after 120 seconds.
    As such, back Arsenal to start fast at the Theatre of Dreams with the Gunners a terrific 13/10 to net in the first half. Huge.
    Willian is set to return on Thursday against Dundalk and in the early stages of the season looked a real live wire.
    The Brazilian is a massive 4/1 to net anytime on Sunday – that’s a biggie and we’d recommend a small play on that one with him likely on set piece duty.
    SunSport’s best bets
    Over 2.5 goals and both teams to score: evens (BET HERE)
    Arsenal to net in first-half: 13/10 (BET HERE)
    Willian to score at anytime: 4/1 (BET HERE)

    Leeds vs Leicester, Monday 8pm (Sky Sports Main Event)
    The promotion bounce just keeps on coming for Leeds and Marcelo Bielsa.
    It was another superb night for the Premier League newboys as they demolished previously unbeaten Aston Villa 3-0 on the road, cementing a place in the top six in the process.
    While they’re unlikely to be scaling those dizzying heights all season, their incredible work ethic and tireless running has been a breath of fresh air this season.
    Stats showed that as a team combined, Leeds ran more than NINE kilometres further than their Villa counterparts that night. Hard work pays off.
    Leicester meanwhile are back in the groove following an excellent 1-0 win over Arsenal at the Emirates.
    That ended a long, barren spell for the Foxes in North London and this behind-closed-doors start to the season seems to have lessened the impact of home advantage.
    Jamie Vardy returned from injury to net the winner off the bench and he will relish trying to get in behind this Leeds backline.
    The Whites are great fun to watch and regardless of the opposition, Bielsa is going for three points.

    Vardy is the PL’s most-lethal finisher against Big Six opponents
    Promoted sides usually get a wake-up call following a strong start and we reckon the Foxes will be confident of getting something under the lights at Elland Road.
    They’ve won all three of their away matches to start the new campaign, with a goal difference of 7+.
    You can get 4/9 on Leicester double chance and that’s a cracking price to top up your weekend accas.
    For those of you looking for something more substantial though, the Foxes to win but with both teams to score in a far more attractive 17/5.
    We do reckon Leeds find the net, despite drawing a blank last time they were here against Wolves.
    Patrick Bamford is their man of the moment and the much-derided striker is flourishing after being backed to the hilt by his boss.
    He sits above Mo Salah and Harry Kane in the Premier League Golden Boot race and in current form should be close to odds-on to net anytime.
    Instead Leeds’ No9 is priced at 7/4 to score anytime and that’s a belter.
    SunSport’s best bets
    Leicester double chance (draw or win): 4/9 (BET HERE)
    Foxes to win with both teams scoring: 17/5 (BET HERE)
    Patrick Bamford to net again: 7/4 (BET HERE)

    Burnley vs Tottenham betting tips: Bale to net and Spurs goals in both halves – Premier League predictions

    THE Premier League is back in action tonight as Tottenham round off the weekend with a trip to Burnley.
    Jose Mourinho’s men will be keen to get back to winning ways after a 3-3 draw with West Ham last weekend and we have all the best tips.

    Gareth Bale should be involved tonight
    Burnley vs Tottenham, Monday 8pm (Sky Sports)

    Oh to be a fly on the wall of the Spurs dressing room last week.
    Tottenham let a three-goal lead slip in the final eight minutes against West Ham, capitulating in stunning fashion to Jose Mourinho’s horror.
    That didn’t however stop them being made third-favourites for the Premier League title this season, regardless of the freak comeback.
    In Harry Kane and Son Heung-min, they currently have the most dangerous double-act in the division.

    And Gareth Bale could be added to the fray for this Monday Night clash under the lights. Tasty.
    Burnley started last season slowly and eventually picked up some form, but Sean Dyche will still be concerned by their start this time around.
    One point from a possible 12 and no victories from games against West Brom, Southampton, Newcastle and Leicester is not ideal.
    Concerning for the Clarets too is their paltry three goals so far, two of which came on opening day.

    They need to find their shooting boots – and fast.

    Harry Kane is now joint-seventh in the list of players with the most hat-tricks

    Tottenham are the league’s top scorers and if Burnley are to get anything out of this, we reckon they’ll need to score at least twice.
    When meeting on this ground back in March, the teams played out a tepid 1-1 draw with Spurs playing no recognised striker.
    It’s all change this time round and with their form going forward, they’re the ones to back on the goals market.
    For a start, Tottenham are a great price of 8/13 to win the game and we think they will have learnt from the embarrassing Hammers debacle.
    Spurs to win and over 2.5 goals is a terrific 6/4 and our biggest fancy for this one.
    And to play it safer with another excellent price, take Tottenham to score in BOTH halves at a massive 31/20.
    Plenty is expected of Bale since his return from Real Madrid and all eyes were on the Welsh superstar as he played against LASK on Thursday night.
    He looked sharp and provided the assist for the second goal, showing that old magic is still there.
    Kane is evens to net at Burnley and that’s a great price, but we prefer a fairytale punt on Bale marking his return to the Premier League with a goal at a huge 9/5.
    SunSport’s best bets
    Tottenham to win and over 2.5 goals: 6/4 (BET HERE)
    Spurs to score in both halves: 31/20 (BET HERE)
    Gareth Bale to net first goal since return: 9/5 (BET HERE)

    Arsenal vs Leicester betting tips: Aubameyang first goal, both teams to net at Emirates – Premier League predictions

    ARSENAL take on Leicester as a packed weekend of Premier League games draws to a close.
    And we’ve also got all the big tips for Tottenham’s match at Burnley tomorrow night.

    Aubameyang is yet to fully fire so far this season – but we think it’s just a matter of timeCredit: PA:Press Association
    Arsenal vs Leicester, Sunday 7.15pm (Sky Sports Box Office)

    It’s back to fortress Emirates as Arsenal look to return to winning ways after defeat to Man City.
    Mikel Arteta’s men kick-off this Sunday night clash level on points with the visitors and without a Premier League defeat at home in 2020.
    They’re proving solid, if unspectacular, this campaign and have got the job done in North London against West Ham and Sheffield United.
    Leicester meanwhile continue to be wildly unpredictable.

    Their poor form after the lockdown period saw them throw away a Champions League berth for this season – but they’d looked to have turned a corner after three wins from three to start the new term.
    That included the 5-2 thrashing of Man City at the Etihad, but ever since then the wheels have fallen off slightly.
    They’re trying to avoid a third-straight defeat here after going down meekly to the Hammers and then Aston Villa last week.
    The Foxes scored 12 in their opening three games, but have drawn a blank since.

    Luckily for them, we reckon that run ends at the Emirates.

    Despite Arsenal’s good form here, they are leaky at the back and haven’t kept a home clean sheet since hosting Norwich back in July.
    Speaking of which, that month was when Leicester visited last and then picked up a point in a 1-1 draw.
    We see a very similar game for Sunday, with Brendan Rodgers’ men determined to put an end to this losing run.
    History isn’t on their side though and Leicester have lost on 12 of their last 15 visits to North London.
    They’ve scored on six of the last seven H2H’s here though and we reckon they do again, with both teams to score our banker of the weekend at 8/13.
    The Foxes needed the international break to regroup and we reckon they give the Gunners a real game here – take the 17/20 on them getting either a draw or a victory on the double chance market.
    Jamie Vardy has five Premier League goals already this season and will be a popular choice for those of you punting on the goalscorer market. The latest updates suggest he should return from injury for this game.
    But Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang got the Gunners goal in this matchup back in July and is currently on a four-game dry spell in the league.
    He went through a similar run twice last season – and bagged in the Europa League the other night.
    We reckon he’s the man to be on for the opener at 14/5, or 19/20 anytime if you’re playing things safe.

    Burnley vs Tottenham, Monday 8pm (Sky Sports)
    Oh to be a fly on the wall of the Spurs dressing room last week.
    Tottenham let a three-goal lead slip in the final eight minutes against West Ham, capitulating in stunning fashion to Jose Mourinho’s horror.
    That didn’t however stop them being made third-favourites for the Premier League title this season, regardless of the freak comeback.
    In Harry Kane and Son Heung-min, they currently have the most dangerous double-act in the division.
    And Gareth Bale could be added to the fray for this Monday Night clash under the lights. Tasty.
    Burnley started last season slowly and eventually picked up some form, but Sean Dyche will still be concerned by their start this time around.
    One point from a possible 12 and no victories from games against West Brom, Southampton, Newcastle and Leicester is not ideal.
    Concerning for the Clarets too is their paltry three goals so far, two of which came on opening day.
    They need to find their shooting boots – and fast.

    Harry Kane is now joint-seventh in the list of players with the most hat-tricks

    Tottenham are the league’s top scorers and if Burnley are to get anything out of this, we reckon they’ll need to score at least twice.
    When meeting on this ground back in March, the teams played out a tepid 1-1 draw with Spurs playing no recognised striker.
    It’s all change this time round and with their form going forward, they’re the ones to back on the goals market.
    For a start, Tottenham are a great price of 8/13 to win the game and we think they will have learnt from the embarrassing Hammers debacle.
    Spurs to win and over 2.5 goals is a terrific 6/4 and our biggest fancy for this one.
    And to play it safer with another excellent price, take Tottenham to score in BOTH halves at a massive 31/20.
    Plenty is expected of Bale since his return from Real Madrid and all eyes were on the Welsh superstar as he played against LASK on Thursday night.
    He looked sharp and provided the assist for the second goal, showing that old magic is still there.
    Kane is evens to net at Burnley and that’s a great price, but we prefer a fairytale punt on Bale marking his return to the Premier League with a goal at a huge 9/5.

    Football betting tips: Man Utd face Chelsea, goals galore at Emirates plus Bale on target – Premier League predictions

    ANOTHER week, another packed Premier League schedule to get our teeth into.
    We’ve got betting tips for you from three top-flight matches, starting at Old Trafford where Manchester United welcome Frank Lampard’s inconsistent Chelsea.

    Man Utd host Chelsea in a crunch game on Saturday eveningCredit: The Mega Agency
    Man Utd vs Chelsea – Saturday, 5.30 (Sky Sports)

    It’s hardly dull following either of these teams at the moment.

    Manchester United and Chelsea both seem to be in a period of transition, lurching from grinding lows one week to unreal highs the next.
    Look no further than the Red Devils’ awful defeat to Spurs, a horrid afternoon for Ole’s men which could have haunted them for the winter to come.
    Two weeks on and they’re celebrating a Champions League win in PSG’s backyard. Football, eh?
    Chelsea are similarly unpredictable and despite a huge summer outlay on attacking talent were unable to break down a stubborn Sevilla in midweek.

    Frank Lampard’s side had no problem finding the net against Southampton the other weekend.
    It was at the other end where the real issues were.
    Edouard Mendy returned in midweek and kept a clean sheet, with veteran Petr Cech seemingly now preferred over calamitous Kepa.
    Despite Mendy’s solid performance in Europe, we’re backing another Prem goal fest here.

    Neither team is good value on the win market and you’re really risking your cash plumping either way with these sides involved.
    United’s games this season are averaging a whopping 5.3 goals per match. Yep.

    And Chelsea’s own stats aren’t far behind, with games involving the Blues featuring 4.4 per game.
    With five of the last eight H2H’s featuring three or more goals, that’s the basic play here at Old Trafford.
    PSG wasted a number of chances in midweek and we’re not quite sure how Phil Jones – as much-maligned as he is – can’t even make it into United’s 25-man Premier League squad.
    They are so short in defence and it shows – back Chelsea to score over 1.5 goals at 11/10 which they’ve done in both their away matches this campaign.
    Edinson Cavani is expected to play after being forced to sit out the victory in Paris.
    It remains to be seen if he’s at peak condition after playing just 20 games for club and country last season.
    But if United do get him fit, he knows where the goal is.
    Cavani netted in his first home starts for Paris Saint-Germain back in August 2013 and Napoli in 2010 – back him at 13/8 anytime to repeat the trick.
