I think Brighton’s clash with Manchester United in the Premier League on Sunday could be one of the more entertaining end-of-season fixtures this weekend. The Seagulls will be pushing hard for victory as they look to secure a European spot, and that should lend itself to an open contest.
Moreover, there has been no shortage of goalmouth action in Brighton’s recent home matches, with 4 of their last 5 outings at the Amex producing over 2.5 goals. While Fabian Hurzeler’s side were narrowly beaten 1-0 away at Leeds last weekend, in the two away matches prior to that they suffered a 3-1 defeat at Newcastle and played out an action-packed 2-2 draw at Tottenham.
As for Manchester United, they rank among the Premier League’s highest teams this season when it comes to games featuring over 2.5 goals, with 23 of their 37 matches producing at least 3 match strikes. It is also worth noting that the Red Devils ran out 4-2 winners in the reverse fixture, while they also lost 2-1 at home to Brighton in the FA Cup – further strengthening the case for siding with over 2.5 goals on Sunday.
I’m keen to back both teams to score when Fulham face Newcastle at Craven Cottage in the Premier League on Sunday. While it is unlikely, both sides could still finish in European positions depending on results elsewhere, so it is not quite a dead rubber.
What’s more, Fulham’s home games have been relatively entertaining, particularly during the second half of the season, with BTTS paying out in 6 of the hosts’ last 9 top-flight outings at their West London base. That was also the case last weekend, when Marco Silva’s side were held to a 1-1 draw by already-relegated Wolves.
As for Newcastle, they have been one of the Premier League’s most reliable sides for BTTS this season, with this selection proving profitable in 25 of their 37 league matches, including 12 of the previous 14. The reverse fixture ended 2-1 in Newcastle’s favour, and a similar scoreline either way at Craven Cottage on Sunday would come as no surprise.
Bournemouth will bring the curtain down on what has been a brilliant Premier League campaign when they travel to the City Ground to face Nottingham Forest on Sunday. The Cherries are still chasing a top-six finish and could still potentially secure a place in next season’s Champions League, meaning they arrive with plenty of incentive to take all three points.
Impressively, Andoni Iraola’s side extended their unbeaten Premier League run to 17 matches by holding Manchester City to a 1-1 draw at home on Tuesday night. Even more eye-catching is the fact Bournemouth have taken maximum points from 4 of their last 6 Premier League away matches, including each of their last 3 on the road.
With that in mind, I’m keen to back the high-flying visitors in the Draw No Bet market on Sunday against a Nottingham Forest side with little left to play for beyond pride. Despite Forest’s upturn in form since the appointment of Vítor Pereira, home wins have been few and far between, with their only City Ground success in their last 8 league matches coming against Burnley.
Sunderland and Chelsea will square off in a crucial clash in the race for European qualification in the Premier League on Sunday at the Stadium of Light. The Black Cats have exceeded all expectations on their return to the top-flight and could cap it off by securing continental football next season. As for Chelsea, they have also boosted their European hopes following a 2-1 win over Tottenham on Tuesday night.
The Blues are firm favourites here, but this should be closer than the odds suggest, so I’m backing Sunderland with a +1 handicap. Regis Le Bris’ side have been a tough nut to crack throughout the campaign, particularly at home, where they have avoided defeat in 14 of their 18 matches.
Notably, each of the 4 teams currently occupying the top four positions in the Premier League have failed to come away from this venue with a victory this season, which makes it difficult to have faith in Chelsea to get the job done here. While the Blues did beat Spurs on Tuesday, that was only their first Premier League win in 8 matches, and they have managed just 7 victories from 18 road trips in the top-flight this term.
Accumulators Betting Guide
What is a Premier League accumulator?
This is an accumulator that includes bets on the Premier League. The returns on the accumulator are much higher than they would be if a bet were placed on each of the folds as singles.
It is an enjoyable bet to cheer on, when you gamble responsibly, with higher returns from a small stake. But it is harder to win, because all of the folds within an accumulator need to land to receive any return on the bet.
