Last matchday weekend saw plenty of value punts hit home yet again and proved to be a boon for acca and bet builder lovers alike. More of the same again this weekend?
With so much at stake, the OPTA guys have returned with their best bets for the weekend, delving deep into their records to determine their best picks. Will they net a winner or two—again—this time round?
MANCHESTER CITY vs LIVERPOOL
In each of Manchester City’s last four Premier League games against Liverpool at the Etihad, both sides have scored at least once. Indeed, the Citizens have both scored and conceded in eight of their last 11 league games home and away overall, while the Reds have done so in 10 of their last 13.
BOURNEMOUTH vs WOLVES
Of players with 1,500+ minutes played in the Premier League this season, Antoine Semenyo is averaging the most shots per 90 (3.9), while he has had 4+ shots in all but two of his 12 Premier League appearances at the Vitality Stadium this season.
ISPWICH vs TOTTENHAM
Tottenham have won eight of their last nine Premier League away games against newly promoted opponents (D1). Meanwhile, Spurs have won both of their last two league games overall, and are looking to win three in a row for the first time since December 2023. On the other hand, Ipswich are on a three-game losing run at Portman Road in the Premier League.
ARSENAL vs WEST HAM
Only four players have received more yellow cards in the Premier League this season than Tomás Soucek (8), who has been booked in four of his last seven league games.
OPTA FOURFOLD
