It’s time to lock in your Premier League predictions for Gameweek 27. England’s top-flight soccer division resumes on Saturday, March 11th and I have found a handful of tasty EPL betting picks to set you up for the weekend’s action.
Bournemouth vs. Liverpool Picks
Best Bet: Liverpool -1 (+115)
Having thrashed Manchester United 7-0 at Anfield last weekend, Liverpool will be confident of securing another high-scoring victory over Bournemouth. After all, the Cherries find themselves rock bottom of the Premier League table with the worst defensive record in the division.
Liverpool is priced at -225 to beat Bournemouth, so I recommended throwing the -1 handicap into the mix to boost the odds. The Cherries have conceded seven goals across their past two games and look destined to suffer another heavy defeat on Saturday.
Tottenham Hotspur vs. Nottingham Forest Picks
Best Bet: Tottenham Hotspur to Win to Nil (+130)
Nottingham Forest has the worst away record in the Premier League this season, as Steve Cooper’s men have recorded one win, three draws and eight losses on their travels. To make matters worse, they have scored a measly three goals in 12 away matches this term.
Since the Tricky Trees have failed to score in nine of their 12 away league outings this season, Tottenham Hotspur looks set to claim a clean-sheet victory on Saturday. Spurs are priced at -250 to beat Forest, so it makes sense to back the hosts to win to nil.
Crystal Palace vs. Manchester City Picks
Best Bet: Erling Haaland Anytime Goalscorer (+180)
To say that Erling Haaland is enjoying an impressive debut season at Manchester City would be an understatement. Indeed, the lethal striker has scored 33 goals in 34 games this term, including 27 goals in 25 Premier League appearances.
When Crystal Palace visited the Etihad Stadium back in August, Haaland netted a hat trick in a 4-2 victory for his side. Pep Guardiola’s men face Palace at Selhurst Park this weekend, and I expect Haaland to punish the Eagles once again.
Fulham vs. Arsenal Picks
Best Bet: Over 2.5 Goals (-125)
17 of Fulham’s 26 Premier League games have produced over 2.5 goals this season (65%), while 16 of Arsenal’s 26 league outings have dished up over 2.5 goals (62%). For that reason, I can see Fulham and Arsenal playing out a high-scoring clash on Sunday.
The Gunners came from 2-0 down to beat Bournemouth 3-2 last weekend, while the Cottagers suffered a 3-2 defeat to Brentford. If those scorelines are anything to go by, we should be treated to an eventful encounter at Craven Cottage.
Newcastle United vs. Wolverhampton Picks
Best Bet: Newcastle United to Win (-154)
In my eyes, this clash provides Newcastle United with the ideal opportunity to return to winning ways. The Magpies remain sixth in the table having lost just three of their 24 league matches this term, while Wolverhampton Wanderers sit 13th – 14 points behind Newcastle.
Eddie Howe’s men have lost each of their last three games in all competitions, but they have suffered a solitary defeat across 16 home games in 2022-23. Given Wolves’ relegation struggles, I’m confident that Newcastle will claim all three points on Sunday.
