Our high tipster Lewis Jones, aka Jones Is aware of, offers his evaluation and betting perception throughout the weekend Premier League motion.
Ipswich vs Liverpool, Friday 8pm, stay on Sky Sports activities
Ipswich City vs Liverpool LIVE!
Liverpool might turn out to be the primary membership in historical past to have three £100m+ gamers on the pitch on the similar time. That horrifying statistic is enjoying a component on why they’re as quick as 1/2 with Sky Guess to interrupt a run of six video games and not using a win throughout the 2 seasons.
It is a packed squad, filled with expertise, however one that appears uncomfortable attempting to implement Andoni Iraola’s type. Nottingham Forest created 2.3 value of anticipated objectives at Anfield final weekend – the third-highest whole a staff has amassed within the final 77 Premier League house video games. It makes them uneasy favourites on Friday evening.
For a betting angle, eyes needs to be drawn to Leif Davis, who’s 4/1 with Sky Guess to attain or help.
Leif Davis is 4/1 with Sky Guess to attain or help
The flying full-back is enjoying nearly because the left winger on this system, scoring at Manchester United so as to add to his two objectives in pre-season. His help capabilities are additionally very noteworthy – possessing a wand of a left foot, Davis has registered 21 assists within the final two Championship campaigns.
SCORE PREDICTION: 2-2 | JONES KNOWS’ BEST BET: Leif Davis to attain or help (4/1 with Sky Guess)

Newcastle vs Bournemouth, Saturday 12.30pm
This could possibly be a really enjoyable recreation involving two managers who wish to play quick, vertical soccer. Anthony Elanga seems to be a special participant underneath Matthias Jaissle enjoying this type. His confidence is sky excessive and when he is in full move he’s such a weapon for a staff that wish to play direct balls – as seen by his objectives in opposition to Liverpool and Spurs.
He is not at all times dependable in entrance of purpose however is able to all these goalscoring streaks, so the 100/30 with Sky Guess on him to attain once more has potential.
SCORE PREDICTION: 2-2
Brentford vs Sunderland, Saturday 3pm
Brentford have been arguably essentially the most spectacular Premier League staff after two video games.
The extent of efficiency they put up within the win over Tottenham and draw at Leeds offers us some proof to conclude that their course of has improved since final season. This was on present within the first 60 minutes in opposition to Leeds the place they have been excellent.
They created essentially the most photographs (15) and touches within the opposition field (31) any away staff at Elland Street has produced within the opening 60 minutes for the reason that begin of final season.
Sunderland are tough to make a case for, particularly enjoying away from house the place they’ve amassed an anticipated objectives distinction per 90 of -0.8 for the reason that begin of final season. Relegated West Ham and Wolves had higher numbers than that.
To spice up the Brentford win value, they’ve scored six objectives of their three video games in all competitions this season, being in entrance on the break in all three of them. I am comfortable to again a repeat for Brentford to be profitable at half-time and full-time at 6/4 with Sky Guess.
SCORE PREDICTION: 3-0 | JONES KNOWS’ BEST BET: Brentford/Brentford at half-time/full-time (6/4 with Sky Guess)
Brighton vs Leeds, Saturday 3pm
Yankuba Minteh, Jack Hinshelwood, Kaoru Mitoma, Georginio Rutter and Mats Wieffer all could possibly be lacking for Brighton. It is why they have been weak within the betting within the build-up to this one.
Since Daniel Farke switched to a again three in December, Leeds have been very comfy defending away from house and taking a really conservative strategy to first halves.
Not many objectives are being scored to the extent that 5 of their final six away video games have been 0-0 at half time. The 7/4 with Sky Guess for one more 0-0 on the break is a runner.
SCORE PREDICTION: 1-1
Fulham vs Crystal Palace, Saturday 3pm
There’s plenty of volatility from a prediction standpoint for this encounter which has turn out to be a giant match for each managers as they give the impression of being to get their campaigns transferring in the proper course.
Palace have misplaced the defensive identification that made them so profitable underneath Oliver Glasner, whereas the attacking enhancements haven’t but materialised constantly. Fulham followers are already pissed off with Alvaro Arbeola after their timid exhibiting at Sunderland. A low-scoring draw it’s.
SCORE PREDICTION: 1-1
Manchester Metropolis vs Coventry, Saturday 3pm
Manchester Metropolis have been like clockwork in all these spots underneath Pep Guardiola. Usually victories over newly-promoted groups are achieved with minimal fuss, which means these wanting so as to add a Metropolis win to their weekend accumulators should not have too many sweaty moments.
Rayan Cherki at 5/6 with Sky Guess for one more help might be standard. The French maestro is averaging 0.45 assists per 90 for the reason that begin of final season – a ratio hotter than Bruno Fernandes. In a recreation the place Metropolis are anticipated to attain three objectives, backing Cherki is the way in which smarter strategy to again a pro-Metropolis angle.
SCORE PREDICTION: 3-0
Nottingham Forest vs Tottenham, Saturday 3pm
It should be so irritating being a Spurs fan. Severely, how can they be this unhealthy nonetheless after spending a lot this summer season?
They have been extra aggressive final weekend within the defeat to Newcastle however they have been really easy to attain in opposition to and there’s nonetheless a sense that the gamers are weighed down by previous failures.
Tottenham have tried an infinite tactical and personnel reset while Forest do have extra continuity and have proven indicators of implementing Glasner’s type. They have been extra like a Glasner staff at Anfield, safe and organised with out the ball but in addition so harmful to cease after they determined to press ahead nearly as a entrance 5 with the full-backs pushing on.
There’s an expectation that Morgan Gibbs-White’s output goes to develop underneath this supervisor and he bought off the mark at Anfield. He is had at the very least a shot on the right track in his final 4 begins in opposition to Tottenham and averages 1.05 per recreation for the reason that begin of final season. Combining him to have a shot on the right track and Forest to keep away from defeat charges as an honest wager at 10/11 with Sky Guess.
SCORE PREDICTION: 2-1
Hull vs Aston Villa, Saturday 5.30pm, stay on Sky Sports activities
Hull have received their opening two video games and are but to concede a purpose. After all, they’ve carried out it with the backdrop of dropping the anticipated objectives battle in each matches. Some issues by no means change.
Nevertheless, as somebody who lives and dies by the information from an analytical standpoint there stays a powerful risk that the Tigers will hit a wall when it comes to their kind. It ought to begin right here.
I am anticipating Unai Emery to get Aston Villa going once more fairly sharpish.
September is his favorite month. His file in September within the Premier League is only one defeat from 18 matches, profitable 11.
Emery has additionally by no means misplaced a recreation with Villa in opposition to a promoted aspect, profitable 15 of the 21 matches and of their final 9 video games away from house in opposition to a newly promoted aspect they’ve scored 23 objectives. The 17/20 on provide for the away win with Sky Guess is among the finest bets of the weekend.
SCORE PREDICTION: 0-2 | JONES KNOWS’ BEST BET: Aston Villa to win (17/20 with Sky Guess)
Everton vs Manchester United, Sunday 2pm, stay on Sky Sports activities
Everton endured a Deadline Day to overlook. Nevertheless, though they’ve a weaker squad, their beginning XI may very well be stronger than what the market assumes.
And enjoying Manchester United at house could possibly be precisely what they want proper now. A correct siege mentality recreation is traditional David Moyes the place the followers might be on board with the pragmatic strategy to get a outcome. Bear in mind, it is the hierarchy who they’ve turned on – not the gamers or Moyes.
Ipswich competed properly with United up till Harry Maguire’s controversial purpose which then allowed Michael Carrick’s staff to move and reap the benefits of plenty of area.
Everton are nearly the alternative opponent to Ipswich. They are going to make this very tough.
SCORE PREDICTION: 1-1
Arsenal vs Chelsea, Sunday 4.30pm, stay on Sky Sports activities
Are the market giving sufficient respect to Arsenal right here?
The house win at 4/6 with Sky Guess goes to tempt a whole lot of punters in.
Arsenal will make this a usually Arsenal recreation the place they give the impression of being to regulate transitions, defend with extremely organisation and take benefit when their moments come. They’re going to be assured of stopping the Chelsea entrance three, who’ve been electrical however it’s too early to be calling them a severe staff.
Only one clear sheet of their final 18 Premier League video games identifies that.
In that very same 18-game run Arsenal have stored 10 clear sheets. Ranges.
That is additionally a defence which has stored 11 clear sheets of their final 14 house video games, conceding simply three objectives of their final 13 house video games in all competitions.
We needn’t overcomplicate issues right here. Arsenal to win and underneath 3.5 objectives has landed in 10 of the final 14 video games at The Emirates. It is Evens to go in once more.
SCORE PREDICTION: 2-0
