Football – England – Premier League Betting Tips

Crystal Palace were handed an expected defeat away at Arsenal on New Years Day in a 2-0 loss at The Emirates, but to be fair, Palace have had a rough set of fixtures approaching the busy Christmas and New Year schedule.

Palace have had to play Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal in their last five matches (which they’ve suffered defeat in each), but they have managed points against the teams they’ve played otherwise in 3-3 and 1-1 draws with Hull City and Watford respectively – which were both away from home by the way.

In addition, four of their last five home matches have been against four of the top six teams in the shape of Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea, but they’ve managed a 3-0 win over Southampton in-between times.

If things were bad at Crystal Palace, then visitors Swansea City’s season has been disastrous by comparison as The Swans now find themselves bottom of the Premier League following four straight defeats at the hands of West Brom and Middlesbrough (away from home), along with home defeats to West Ham and Bournemouth.

With all due respect, these defeats were against the less illustrious teams in the English top flight, and a trip to the nation’s capital to face Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park doesn’t look any easier for a Swansea City outfit who have manged just one away win all season.

Swansea’s away record stands at a poor  1-1-7  7/21 and along with keeping just one clean sheet on the road, they’ve also shipped 2 goals or more on six occasions from their nine away matches to date.
