Stat of the Week…

The Premier League have scrapped their Pay-Per-View model for now. That means we’ve got a great run of top-flight games coming up, with every single one available to view across the various platforms – Sky Sports, BT Sport, Amazon Prime Video, and the BBC.

You can view this weekend’s official Premier League ‘TV Guide’ here. That includes Fulham v Everton free-to-air on the BBC on Sunday lunchtime.

With every game between now and January set to be televised, I guess our ‘TV’ Stat of the Week should now just be called the Premier League Stat of the Week…

Newcastle v Chelsea kicks off this weekend’s action (Sat 12.30pm, BT Sport). And the stats say to expect goals:

• Chelsea are joint-1st in the Premier League for Over 2.5 Goals payouts this season, with a 75% strike-rate (6 out of 8 games)

• Newcastle are 100% at home for Over 2.5 Goals, with 3+ goals in all 4 games at St James’ Park so far

Chelsea have only failed to score on two occasions, against Liverpool and Man Utd. In each of their other six league games, Frank Lampard’s side have scored an eye-catching 3+ goals.

As you can see from our Predictions table below, we’ve gone for score-lines that burst the Over 2.5 line, 2-2 and 1-2.

Premier League Predictions…

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

The Weekend Acca…

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

This week we have the same opinions on just 3 of the 10 games…

Premier League Acca:

• Aston Villa
• Man Utd
• Everton 

The treble pays around 9/2 (5.5) with Boylesports, William Hill and Betway, and 4/1+ (5.0+) in general.

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

Enjoy the football…

Best wishes,

Oliver Upstone
