Premier League Predictions - 672/1 for Lawro's full house...

Friday 5th March 2021

In Across the Leagues EXTRA today:

• Premier League Predictions…
• Low goals or no goals…
• Weekend Accas…

The crammed-in 2020/21 schedule is taking its toll on the Premier League.

Just look at these goal-shy score-lines from the last two evenings…

Liverpool 0 Chelsea 1
Fulham 0 Tottenham 1
West Brom 0 Everton 1
Crystal Palace 0 Man Utd 0
Burnley 1 Leicester 1
Sheff Utd 1 Aston Villa 0

Those half a dozen Under 2.5 Goals results contribute to this overall tally in the past week:

• Since last Saturday, 17 Premier League games have been played, and 13 of them have gone Under 2.5 Goals

The fixtures aren’t slowing down. There’s another full Premier League programme this weekend. And low goals is the overriding theme in our Predictions table (see below)…

I’ve gone for 7 out of 10 games to go Under 2.5 Goals. My colleague Shaun has named 8.

And Mark Lawrenson at the BBC is going for the full house – with all 10 of his score predictions featuring 2 or less goals…

If you agree with Lawro, an acca on all 10 games to go Under 2.5 Goals pays 672/1 with BetVictor. That would certainly make the bore-draws a bit more exciting.

Manchester derby…

Man City v Man Utd is the big game on Sunday afternoon (4.30pm, Sky Sports).

City have won 21 games in a row in all competitions. United have just played out three consecutive 0-0 draws.

• The last 4 Manchester derbies in all comps have gone Under 2.5 Goals

Of course, there’s always the danger than runaway league leaders Man City can turn on the style and score a hatful. Since the start of February, Pep’s men have won 4-1 at Liverpool, and 4-1 v Wolves, beaten Tottenham 3-0, and won 3-1 at Everton. I’ve gone for 4-1 City…

Premier League Predictions…

Here are our predictions for this weekend, along with Mark Lawrenson at the BBC:

Weekend Accas…

Match Results:

When our Match Result predictions match up, my colleague Shaun & I roll these picks into an accumulator.

This weekend we have the same opinion on 3 of the 10 games:

• Man City
• Chelsea
• West Ham 

The treble pays 4/1 with Marathonbet.

Total Goals:

In the midweek games, my, Shaun (and Lawro’s) predictions all matched up for 4 games to go Under 2.5 Goals, paying out at 11/1.

In the Under/ Over 2.5 Total Goals department this weekend, there are 5 matches where we’re all saying low goals:

• Sheff Utd v Southampton – UNDER 2.5
• West Brom v Newcastle – UNDER 2.5
• Liverpool v Fulham – UNDER 2.5
• Tottenham v Crystal Palace – UNDER 2.5
• Chelsea v Everton – UNDER 2.5

The 5-fold acca pays 24/1 with Marathonbet.

Correct Scores…

On the Correct Scores, Shaun & I have a matching prediction for Chelsea v Everton.

Since Thomas Tuchel took over, Under 2.5 Goals bets have paid out in 9 of 10 Chelsea games in all comps, with 4 x 1-0 wins…

• Chelsea 1-0 is 6/1 with Bet365

We’ll be back next week with more stats and predictions.

Enjoy the football…

Best wishes,

Oliver Upstone
