The stats don’t lie.
History often repeats itself and sport – football in particular – is a prime example of this axiom. From derbies producing red cards to Haaland bulging the back of the net and seeing his name in lights, some things just seem inevitable. A certainty, if you like.
Of course, there is no such thing as a certainty in betting, but by scouring their records and using their incredible database of match facts and stats the guys at Opta can use their AI-driven predictive analysis to determine what could be the best bets from a selection of Premier League games this weekend.
Science, don’t you just love it?!
EVERTON v MAN CITY
Idrissa Gueye
Idrissa Gueye has been booked in four of his last eight Premier League appearances – including each of his last two – and only Amadou Onana (43) has committed more fouls than him for Everton this season (38).
Erling Haaland
Erling Haaland had six shots against Leeds in Man City’s last Premier League game, the ninth time this season he’s had 5+ shots in a game, the most of any Premier League player.
ARSENAL vs. BRIGHTON
Martin Ødegaard
Martin Ødegaard has scored five goals in his last five Premier League appearances, scoring Arsenal’s opening goal against Newcastle last time out, and no Gunners player has more league goals this season than he does (15). He’s also scored in each of his last two appearances against Brighton.
Alexis Mac Allister
Alexis Mac Allister has had at least one shot on target in 14 of his last 18 Premier League appearances and has had two shots on target in each of his last two games, scoring in both against Man Utd and Everton.
