Premier League Matchday 21: Best Betting Football Tips
Arsenal vs. Manchester United: EPL Betting Tip
Rivals Arsenal and Man Utd do battle at the Emirates Stadium in Premier League action on Saturday evening. The in-form Gunners will fancy their chances on home soil, but can the Red Devils respond from their shock midweek loss to bottom club Sheffield United?
Arsenal’s form has improved drastically over the past month or so. With the pressure on, Mikel Arteta has managed to turn things around in north London, guiding the Gunners to five wins and a draw from their previous six in the Premier League.
Before Wednesday’s shock home defeat to the bottom Blades, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side had not lost in the Premier League since Arsenal won at Old Trafford way back on November 1st. United, who sit second to rivals Manchester City, will be desperate to bounce back with a win on Saturday.
A Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang penalty gave Arsenal a 1-0 win at Old Trafford in the reverse game a few months back, and we fancy the London side to edge this one on home turf. Take a punt on the hosts to win by one goal at 15/4.
Arsenal 15/8
Draw 5/2

Chelsea vs. Burnley: Best Premier League Betting Predictions
First up on another action-packed Sunday in the Premier League, Tuchel’s Chelsea entertain Dyche’s Burnley at Stamford Bridge. After starting with a 0-0 home draw with Wolverhampton Wanderers in midweek, Tuchel will be looking for his first win as Blues boss at the weekend.
Chelsea made a strong start to their season under Frank Lampard, but Lampard was relieved of his duties after the Blues had lost five of eight in the Premier League. The London club acted fast to bring former Borussia Dortmund & Paris Saint-Germain manager Tuchel to Stamford Bridge.
Burnley are in terrific form, winning three league and cup games in a row. The Clarets have won at the Emirates Stadium and Anfield this season – can Dyche’s troops shock Chelsea at Stamford Bridge this weekend?
After Wednesday’s 0-0 home draw with Wolves, Chelsea will be hoping to hit back with all three points in Tuchel’s second game in charge. Burnley will no doubt give the home side a good game, so back the Chelsea win and both teams to score at 12/5.

West Ham United vs. Liverpool: EPL Betting Odds & Predictions
In-form West Ham host Liverpool at the London Stadium on Sunday. David Moyes’ Hammers will be looking for a seventh successive league and cup victory. However, Jurgen Klopp’s Reds will be buoyed after Thursday’s excellent 3-1 win over Tottenham in London.
West Ham have enjoyed an outstanding season so far. The Irons are sitting pretty in fifth spot at present, collecting 35 points from 20 games. The London side have won half of their league fixtures, scoring 30 goals along the way.
After going five Premier League matches without a win (drawing three, losing two), the 3-1 victory at Spurs in midweek was just what the doctor ordered for the champions. Liverpool leapfrogged West Ham into fourth, but the Merseyside are four points behind leaders Man City having played a game more.
West Ham would love to extend their unbeaten run to nine in all competitions, but we fancy Liverpool to follow up Thursday’s victory at Tottenham with another win in the capital this weekend. The visitors are priced at 3/4 to leave with all three points.
West Ham United 18/5
Draw 16/5
Liverpool 3/4

Brighton & Hove Albion vs. Tottenham Hotspur: Best Premier League Betting Tips on Matchday 21
The final Premier League fixture of the round sees Graham Potter’s Brighton and Jose Mourinho’s Tottenham do battle at the Amex Stadium on Sunday night. Spurs will want to bounce back from defeat to Liverpool last time out.
Brighton have had a tough season so far, winning just three of 20 Premier League matches. However, the Seagulls are five points above the drop zone in 17th. In their last two, Albion have beaten Leeds United and drawn with Fulham.
Tottenham were on an eight-game unbeaten run across all competitions before Thursday’s loss to Liverpool. Mourinho’s men have been solid on the road this season, winning five, drawing three and losing only one of nine away matches in the Premier League.
Spurs had a miserable time at the Amex last season, losing 3-0. However, they have beaten Brighton 2-1 on two occasions since then. The 2-1 Tottenham win on Sunday could be worth having a punt on at the tempting betting odds of 9/1.
Brighton & Hove Albion 41/20
