class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The Toffees are in prolific form so far this season, and Al Hain-Cole expects them to serve up another free-scoring clash against Potter's men

Everton will be looking to maintain their winning start to the Premier League campaign when they welcome Brighton to Goodison Park on Saturday.

The Toffees boast an 100 per cent record after three matches so far, sitting third on goal difference with nine points from nine.

Everton vs Brighton Latest Odds

Having also won three out of three in the Carabao Cup, they are available at 7/10 (1.70) with bet365 to extend their streak to seven consecutive victories here.

Graham Potter’s team fell foul to a VAR-awarded penalty after the final whistle in an unfortunate 3-2 defeat against Manchester United last weekend but can be backed at 4/1 (5.00) to bounce back with a win in this one.

Just one of the six previous Premier League encounters between this pair have resulted in draws, but you can get odds of 13/5 (3.60) on them cancelling each other out on this occasion.

Everton vs Brighton Team News

Mason Holgate, Jarrad Branthwaite, Jean-Philippe Gbamin and Cenk Tosun are all ruled out through injury for Everton.

Tariq Lamptey will face a late fitness test after picking up a knock, while Christian Walton and Florin Andone are injured.

Everton vs Brighton Preview

Although Carlo Ancelotti’s men face a tricky task against a side that is unbeaten in nine league matches on the road, they will be confident of imposing themselves with the creativity of new signing James Rodriguez and the prolific form of Dominic Calvert-Lewin.

However, having kept just one clean sheet in nine league fixtures on home soil, they may struggle against a Seagulls side that has averaged two goals a game in the league so far this campaign.

Everton vs Brighton Tips and Predictions

All in all, odds of 4/5 (1.80) are not to be missed on both sides getting on target for Everton’s ninth home league game in 10 and a fourth league match in five for Brighton.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The hosts have been shipping goals this season so far and we think another high scoring game is on the cards in this London derby on Saturday

Chelsea play their second home match of the Premier League season on Saturday when they welcome Crystal Palace to Stamford Bridge.

Frank Lampard’s men have been far from convincing in their opening games of the new campaign, and they face a Palace side who have made a better start than many expected.

Roy Hodgson’s team have picked up two wins from their three games and their last away match saw them claim an impressive 3-1 win at Old Trafford.

Chelsea vs Crystal Palace Latest Odds

Last term the Blues won this fixture 2-0, and bet365 offer them at 2/5 (1.40) to pick up another victory.

The Eagles’ last success at Stamford Bridge came in 2017 when they won 2-1 and they can be backed at 7/1 (8.00), with the draw at 15/4 (4.75).

Chelsea vs Crystal Palace Team News

New signing Hakim Ziyech has been struggling with a knee problem and it remains to be seen whether he will be involved on Saturday, whilst Christian Pulisic could also feature at the weekend. Billy Gilmour remains a long-term absentee.

The visitors have a host of injury problems with Gary Cahill, Scott Dann, Michy Batshuayi, Patrick Van Aanholt, Connor Wickham, James Tomkins and Nathan Ferguson all ruled out. 

Chelsea vs Crystal Palace Preview

Despite their serious injury list, Palace have managed to make a positive start to the season by scoring in all three of their Premier League games.

The signing of Thiago Silva is yet to dispel Chelsea’s vulnerability at the back, which was an issue last season as they ended the campaign with the ninth-worst defensive record despite qualifying for the Champions League.

That being said, the vast majority of the Blues’ goals were conceded on the road with their total of 19 goals against at home actually the joint-best in the division. 

There should be some interest in backing goals at both ends, with the visitors finding the net regularly and the hosts yet to keep a clean sheet this term.

Chelsea vs Crystal Palace Tips and Predictions

Both teams to score is available at 4/5 (1.80) and looks like a solid option while combining this selection with over 2.5 goals sees the odds rise to a healthy 11/10 (2.10).

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>These sides have had contrasting results to start the season but our tipster is backing the trend of goals to continue when they meet at Elland Road

Two of the top managerial minds in the Premier League face off on Saturday evening when Leeds United host Manchester City.

Marcelo Bielsa guided the Whites back to the Premier League after 16 years away and they certainly have not struggled to acclimatise, winning two of their three games so far and scoring eight goals in the process.

It has not been such smooth sailing for Pep Guardiola, whose side were stunned 5-2 by Leicester City at home after giving away three penalties and the manager will no doubt be looking for a strong response at Elland Road.

Leeds United vs Manchester City Latest Odds

Man City won 11 of their 19 away games in the Premier League last season and bet365 make them 4/11 (1.36) to bounce back from their defeat against the Foxes with victory in West Yorkshire.

Leeds won their first home top-flight game back by beating Fulham 4-3 but are 13/2 (7.50) outsiders to stun Guardiola’s men.

Only three of City’s Premier League games ended in a draw and the bookmaker offers 17/4 (5.25) that this fixture ends level.

Leeds United vs Manchester City Team News

Bielsa is not one to rotate but Jack Harrison is ineligible to feature against his parent club, meaning there could be a start for Rodrigo or Ian Poveda against his former employers.

The visitors are still without Gabriel Jesus and Sergio Aguero, so Raheem Sterling or Riyad Mahrez could start upfront. John Stones, Joao Cancelo, Ilkay Gundogan and Oleksandr Zinchenko are also all out.

Leeds United vs Manchester City Preview

Exciting things were expected of Leeds upon their return to the Premier League and they have not disappointed so far, with two of their games ending 4-3 and the other a 1-0 win which saw them have nine shots on target.

In fact, only Liverpool and Leicester have scored more goals than the eight the Whites have plundered this season, and they will be confident of adding to that total against a City side that has shipped six in two games.

It should be a high-scoring game at Elland Road considering City have led the league in goals scored for each of the last three seasons, while Leeds currently have the third-worst defence in the league with seven conceded.

Leeds United vs Manchester City Tips and Predictions

Goals are unlikely to be in short supply in West Yorkshire and backing both teams to score in the second half at 13/8 (2.63) with bet365 looks the best bet for punters, having paid out in two of Leeds’ three Premier League games this season as well as in both of City’s.

Also worth considering is both teams to score in both halves at 17/2 (9.50) which would also have landed in two of three fixtures featuring Bielsa’s side and also in Man City’s recent 5-2 loss to Leicester.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>This fixture tends to produce plenty of goals and we are backing another high scoring game when the Liga champions visit Valencia this weekend

Click Here: sea eagles jerseys

Real Madrid travel to the Estadio Ciudad de Valencia on Sunday afternoon to face a Levante side who have made life tough for them in recent encounters.

Zinedine Zidane’s men have won just two of their last six meetings with Los Granotas and last season Levante won this fixture by a 1-0 score-line. 

Levante vs Real Madrid Latest Odds

Madrid have picked up two wins and a draw from their three matches in La Liga this season and bet365 offer them at 8/15 (1.53) to claim all three points this weekend.

The hosts, for their part, have three points from a possible nine and can be backed at 19/4 (5.75) with the draw priced at 9/2 (5.50).

Levante vs Real Madrid Team News

Eden Hazard is out for Madrid as he attempts to recover from a muscle injury which looks set to keep him sidelined for a month, while Toni Kroos is also out for the visitors.

Levante are without midfielder Cheick Doukoure, while winger Hernani is a doubt after missing Thursday night’s defeat at Sevilla.

Levante vs Real Madrid Preview

Levante are a side that can generally be relied upon to be involved in high-scoring games thanks to a fluid attack and a shaky defence.

Their games averaged 2.62 goals last season, the sixth-highest total in the division, and Paco Lopez’s team have only failed to score in four of their last 25 home matches.

Madrid may boast La Liga’s best defensive record from last term, but this season we have already seen the team give up plenty of decent scoring positions to opponents.

The brilliance of Thibaut Courtois has largely kept the opposition at bay and given Levante have scored in each of their last seven meetings with Real Madrid, there should be some interest in backing them do so once more on Sunday.

Levante vs Real Madrid Tips And Predictions

Both teams to score and over 2.5 goals is priced at 9/10 (1.90) and has paid out in five of the last seven meetings between these two sides.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The Blaugrana may be in strong form at the start of the campaign but we are backing Julen Lopetegui's men to make life tough for them this weekend

Barcelona are looking to continue their strong start to the Liga season under Ronald Koeman on Sunday evening when Sevilla visit the Camp Nou.

The Blaugrana followed up their 4-0 win against Villarreal last weekend with a 3-0 success at Celta Vigo on Thursday evening and after a turbulent summer, there are finally some positive signs at the club.

Sevilla also have two wins from their two La Liga games so far this term, yet the Europa League holders have a poor record at Camp Nou where they have not won for 18 years.

Barcelona vs Sevilla Latest Odds

The Catalans have suffered just one defeat in their last 32 league clashes and bet365 offer them at 61/100 (1.61) to claim three points.

Sevilla can be backed at 4/1 (5.00) to record a win in this fixture for the first time since December 2002, while the draw is available at 10/3 (4.33).

Barcelona vs Sevilla Team News

Clement Lenglet is suspended after his red card in Vigo on Thursday, while Marc-Andre Ter Stegen and Samuel Umtiti remain injured.

Sevilla only have fringe players Sebastian Corchia and Carlos Fernandez likely to be missing.

Barcelona vs Sevilla Preview

Julen Lopetegui’s side may have a poor record at the Camp Nou but they come into this game on a long unbeaten run which will surely give them confidence.

Sevilla have not lost a game in 90 minutes since February and that 25-match streak has included some extremely impressive performances.

The visitors will surely be more competitive than Barca’s last opponents at the Camp Nou, a Villarreal side who were woefully inadequate in every aspect of their performance, and Sunday’s clash should be an intriguing spectacle.

During their 25-game run without defeat, the side from Andalusia have kept 12 clean sheets – including against Barca back in June – and Lopetegui has made Sevilla an extremely difficult side to break down.

Barcelona vs Sevilla Tips and Predictions

An appealing way to get the visitors onside is backing them at 113/100 (2.13) with a +0.25 Asian handicap in the first half, which pays out in full if the visitors are ahead at half time, and gives us a half win if they are drawing.

Sevilla have not been behind at the break in any of their last 10 matches including against the likes of Bayern Munich, Inter Milan, Manchester United and Barcelona themselves.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With the hosts looking watertight at the back under Arteta, Al Hain-Cole can't see the goal-shy Blades getting any joy in attack at the Emirates

Arsenal will be hoping to bounce back from defeat when they welcome Sheffield United to the Emirates Stadium in Sunday’s Premier League clash.

The Gunners saw their winning start to the season ended by a 3-1 defeat at Liverpool last time out, although did exact some revenge with a penalty shootout Carabao Cup victory over the same opposition in midweek.

Arsenal vs Sheffield United Latest Odds

Having won eight and lost none of their last 10 league matches on home turf, Arsenal are 4/7 (1.57) favourites with bet365 to return to form with another victory.

Chris Wilder’s men are yet to collect a single point from their three opening league matches but can be backed at 5/1 (6.00) to get off the mark with a shock win here.

The last meeting between this pair at this ground resulted in a 1-1 draw, and you can get odds of 3/1 (4.00) on them cancelling each other out once again.

Arsenal vs Sheffield United Team News

Shkrodan Mustafi, Pablo Mari, Calum Chambers and Emile Smith-Rowe are all injured for the hosts, while Sokratis failed a late fitness test.

Jack O’Connell and Lys Mousset are both sidelined through injury, although John Egan is available once again following suspension.

Arsenal XI: Leno; Bellerin, Gabriel, David Luiz, Tierney; Ceballos, Elneny; Saka, Willian, Nketiah; Aubameyang

Sheffield United XI: Ramsdale; Basham, Egan, Robinson; Baldock, Lundstram, Berge, Osborn, Stevens; McGoldrick, Burke

Arsenal vs Sheffield United Preview

Although both sides fielded much changed lineups, Thursday’s 0-0 Carabao Cup draw with Liverpool offered a good example of the defensive transformation Mikel Arteta has brought to the team.

Having kept three clean sheets in their last five matches in all competitions, they will back themselves to keep quiet a Blades side that is yet to find the net in the league this campaign.

In fact, Sheffield United’s lacklustre scoring run extends back into last season and translates to a return of just one goal in six league matches.

Arsenal vs Sheffield United Tips and Predictions

With this in mind, odds of 6/4 (2.50) seem generous on Arsenal extending their strong home record by coming out on top without conceding a goal.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Both the Red Devils and Spurs have been amongst the goals this season and our tipster is backing yet more action when they meet at Old Trafford

Manchester United are looking for their first home win of the season when they welcome Tottenham to Old Trafford on Sunday.

It has not been the most convincing of starts by the Red Devils after they lost at home to Crystal Palace and were lucky to escape Brighton with three points last week, and this fixture has the makings for another tough test.

Although Spurs have picked up only four points from three games, one of those was a 5-2 drubbing at Southampton and they were incredibly unfortunate to only draw with Newcastle last weekend after a contentious penalty saved the Magpies.

Manchester United vs Tottenham Latest Odds

Man United won 10 of their 19 league games at Old Trafford last season and bet365 make them 17/20 (1.85) to pick up their first home victory of the campaign on Sunday.

Spurs mustered just four wins away from home last season and they are priced at 3/1 (4.0) to hand United a second straight home league defeat, whilst the draw is available at 14/5 (3.80).

Manchester United vs Tottenham Team News

Axel Tuanzebe and Phil Jones are long-term absentees for United, but otherwise Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has a full team to choose from.

Jose Mourinho will be without Gareth Bale for his return to Old Trafford, but Son Heung-min is fit and Sergio Reguilon makes his Premier League debut.

Manchester United XI: De Gea; Wan-Bissaka, Bailly, Maguire, Shaw; Matic, Pogba; Greenwood, Fernandes, Rashford; Martial

Tottenham XI: Lloris; Aurier, Dier, Sanchez, Reguilon; Hojbjerg, Sissoko, Ndombele; Lamela, Son, Kane

Manchester United vs Tottenham Preview

With so much of the season left to play it would certainly not be a disaster for either team to lose this game, but given the ordinary fashion in which both have sides have started, a win would of course be very welcome.

United’s home record against top-six sides last season was exceptional with four wins and a draw, whilst the only point Spurs picked up against the top six was at Manchester City.

However, the positive for Mourinho is that his side did score in all five of those games and are in good stead to do so in this match after recording 12 shots on target against Newcastle last week and netting five times against Southampton the week prior.

Manchester United vs Tottenham Tips and Predictions

With Spurs having scored six goals in their last two games and United with four in their most recent pair, bet365’s 4/5 (1.80) on over 2.5 goals looks the best bet for this Premier League clash on Sunday.

Odds correct at the time of writing. Please gamble responsibly.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>In strong form over the last few matches, Al Hain-Cole is backing Smith's men to make life difficult for the Reds in Sunday's clash at Villa Park

At least one 100 per cent record will come to an end when Aston Villa welcome Liverpool to Villa Park for Sunday’s Premier League clash.

Both sides have enjoyed winning starts to the season, although Dean Smith’s men have played just two matches to their opponents’ three.

Aston Villa vs Liverpool Latest Odds

Having also gone unbeaten in their final four league matches of last season, Villa are available at 9/1 (10.00) with bet365 to extend their run by pulling off a big shock win here.

The Reds were knocked out of the Carabao Cup on penalties against Arsenal in midweek but are clear 3/10 (1.30) favourites to bounce back by coming out on top in this one.

Just one of the last 12 meetings between this pair has resulted in a draw, but you can get odds of 9/2 (5.50) on them playing out a stalemate on this occasion.

Aston Villa vs Liverpool Team News

Tom Heaton, Bjorn Engels and Wesley remain long-term absentees for the hosts, although new loan signing Ross Barkley makes his debut.

Jordan Henderson is out following an assessment, while Joel Matip, Kostas Tsimikas, and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are injured and Thiago is in quarantine due to COVID-19.

Aston Villa XI: Martinez; Cash, Konsa, Mings, Targett; McGinn, Douglas Luiz, Barkley; Trezeguet, Watkins, Grealish

Liverpool XI: Adrian; Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson; Fabinho, Wijnaldum, Keita; Jota, Salah, Firmino

Aston Villa vs Liverpool Preview

After saving themselves from relegation with a stirring end to last season, the Villans seem determined to consolidate their place in the top-flight this campaign.

Having run the champions pretty close in both encounters last season – losing out 2-1 at home to two injury time goals before going down 2-0 at Anfield – they will feel confident of giving a strong account of themselves once again.

In fact, Villa have only lost two of their last 12 Premier League matches by more than a single goal, while Jurgen Klopp’s team has won just three of eight away league matches by a two-goal margin.

Aston Villa vs Liverpool Tips and Predictions

All things considered, odds of 5/6 (1.83) seem generous on Liverpool failing to win by more than a single goal margin at Villa Park.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The two Iberian rivals meet for a friendly at Jose Alvalade Stadium and we are backing the hosts to continue their superb recent scoring record

Spain make the short trip to the Estadio Jose Alvalade in Lisbon on Wednesday evening to face neighbours Portugal in a friendly.

Luis Enrique’s men enjoyed a 4-0 win over Ukraine and a 1-1 drew in Germany in the UEFA Nations League last month, while Portugal recorded victories over Sweden and Croatia.

The win against the Croatians was particularly impressive and it extended Fernando Santos’ side’s unbeaten home record in competitive fixtures to six years.

Portugal vs Spain Latest Odds

The last two meetings between these two sides have been at major tournaments, with a 3-3 group stage draw at the World Cup in 2018 being preceded by a 0-0 semi-final encounter during Euro 2012.

bet365 cannot split the sides, with both offered at 8/5 (2.60) and the draw at 12/5 (3.40).

Portugal vs Spain Team News

The hosts have no major injury concerns and the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Joao Felix, Bernardo Silva and Bruno Fernandes are all included, whilst there are recalls for Rafa Silva, Daniel Podence, Ruben Semedo and William Carvalho.

Spain have left out Thiago Alcantara, who is quarantining after a positive Coronavirus test, and Dani Carvajal has dropped out of the squad with a knee injury.

Portugal vs Spain Preview

Much excitement has been generated in Portugal after their two victories last month and against their neighbours, Cristiano Ronaldo and Co. will be keen to show that they are real contenders to defend their European crown next year.

The Euro 2016 winners have serious strength in depth up front and the six goals they netted last month were scored by five different players, so there could be some interest in backing Portugal to get among the goals once more, especially given that Spain are not as solid as they once were.

Indeed, there are serious question marks over David de Gea and Kepa Arrizabalaga while an heir to Gerard Pique in the heart of defence is still to be found, meaning Sergio Ramos remains without a consistent partner.

La Roja have regularly struggled for solidity against the top sides they have faced in recent years, and since 2018, they have conceded three times against each of Portugal, England and Croatia.

Portugal vs Spain Tips and Predictions 

The hosts are offered at 5/4 (2.25) to score over 1.5 goals and this looks like an strong option given how strong Portugal have been in front of goal.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Having seen off Croatia in impressive form last time out, Al Hain-Cole is backing Les Bleus to ease past Shevchenko's men at the Stade de France

France will be hoping to give the home support something to celebrate when they welcome Ukraine to Paris for Wednesday’s international friendly match.

Les Bleus will be welcoming a small number of supporters back into the ground after playing their last match behind closed doors, with 1,000 fans set to take their place at the Stade de France.

France vs Ukraine Latest Odds

Having won eight and lost none of their last nine fixtures in all competitions, they are 2/5 (1.40) favourites with bet365 to reward the crowd with a victory in the capital.

Andriy Shevchenko’s men were thrashed 4-0 by Spain in their last match but can be backed at 7/1 (8.00) to bounce back with a shock win here.

Just one of the last seven meetings between this duo has resulted in a draw, but you can get odds of 7/2 (4.50) on this one finishing up all square.

France vs Ukraine Team News

Houssem Aouar has been handed a second chance to make his senior debut, having been forced to withdraw from the squad last time due to testing positive for COVID-19.

Andriy Pyatov and Taras Stepanenko have withdrawn, while Yevhen Konoplyanka and Oleksandr Zinchenko are injured for Ukraine.

France vs Ukraine Preview

Having been forced to play their impressive 4-2 Nations League win over Croatia without supporters, Didier Deschamps’ team will be confident of serving up a similar display for the fans this time out.

On current form, they should prove far too strong for a Yellow and Blue side whose only wins in their last eight away matches have come against Lithuania and Luxembourg.

The return of Kylian Mbappe and Paul Pogba should only add credence to that as well, considering they were absent for the victory over Croatia but are back in the squad this time around.
