Premier League Predictions…

Here are our Premier League predictions, along with Chris Sutton’s from the BBC:

Stat Attack: potential for crazy score-lines…

The final day of the season has a history of producing wacky results and wild score-lines…

On this week’s Predictor grid, I’ve got 7 of the 10 games going Over 2.5 Goals. And my colleague Shaun has got 7 going Over 2.5, too. The BBC’s Chris Sutton is more pessimistic, with just 3 of his predictions forecasting 3+ Total Goals…

Here are the final-day goals figures from the last 10 Premier League seasons. Food for thought if you fancy playing the Over 2.5 Goals or Correct Score markets on Sunday…

Premier League final-day stats – last 10 years:

• Overall: 63/100 games Over 2.5 Goals = 63%
• Total Goals: 333 (33.3 Goals per final round) = 3.3 goals per game

With the standout high score-lines highlighted in bold below:

2021/22:
9/10 Over 2.5 Goals (5-1, 4-1, 0-5) – 39 goals

2020/21
6/10 Over 2.5 Goals (2-4, 5-0) – 31 goals

2019/20
6/10 Over 2.5 Goals (5-0) – 33 goals

2018/19
6/10 Over 2.5 Goals (1-4, 5-3, 0-4, 1-4) – 36 goals

2017/18
6/10 Over 2.5 Goals (4-0, 5-4) – 31 goals

2016/17
7/10 Over 2.5 Goals (5-1, 1-7, 0-5) – 37 goals

2015/16
7/10 Over 2.5 Goals (4-0, 5-1, 4-1) – 35 goals

2014/15
4/10 Over 2.5 Goals (4-1, 5-1, 6-1) – 29 goals

2013/14
6/10 Over 2.5 Goals – 28 goals

2012/13
6/10 Over 2.5 Goals (5-5, 4-2) – 36 goals

Happy hunting…
