An exciting weekend ahead…
Chelsea may be steamrollering everyone at the top of the Premier League, but the race for the Top Four and Champions League qualification spots is going to be a real battle…
Liverpool take on Tottenham this weekend (see below). While Arsenal are at home to a Hull side who have just beaten Liverpool and drawn with Man Utd. Both games are live on TV on Saturday.
The Top Four race looks sets to be one of the stories of the season from now on. And talking of the Champions League – that returns next week and we’ll be looking at the first round of Knockout games, starting from Tuesday.
Liverpool & Tottenham to draw again?
The Head-2-Head comparison on our site shows that Liverpool have drawn 2 of their last 5 home games, and Tottenham have drawn their last 2 away.
Spurs are the form team in the Premier League with 11 points from their last 15. But Liverpool are unbeaten in 7 games against current Top Six sides this season – including 1-1 draws with both Chelsea and Man Utd in their 2 most recent Top Six encounters.
Add to that the fact that the last 3 league meetings between Liverpool and Tottenham have all been draws (1-1, 1-1 and 0-0) and the case for another draw this weekend grows stronger.
NEW! Your ATL Extra weekend email…
We’ve added a new feature to your Across the Leagues service this week…
As well as your usual Picks & Analysis email from me every Friday lunchtime and midweek match-day, I’ll also now be sending you a free, additional update every weekend – called, appropriately, ATL Extra…
This new email will be with you by 5pm every Friday, with a look at some of the eye-catching prices and stats for the weekend’s big TV games – along with my own ‘Premier League Score Predictions.’ This all adds a little extra excitement to the weekend football, and should help us scout out a few nice payouts along the way.
Long-time readers will know the kind of thing I mean – under its previous guise, our free Friday email Football Betting Stats has picked out winning 16/1 and 3/1 Scorer bets since the turn of the year.
Stats form a huge part of everything we do, of course.
And in the new ATL Extra sectionof our website, you’ll find a new Top 10 Tables page – gathering some of the stats from inside our OPTA-powered members-only section. To give you an at-a-glance guide to the top-performing teams in the Match Result form, Under 2.5 Goals, Over 2.5 Goals and Both Teams to Score categories, on recent form…
For example, Swansea are currently the top team across the entire Premier League and Football League for Over 2.5 Goals, while Carlisle are on an unrivalled winning streak in the whole country for Both Teams to Score…
Check out your new Top 10 Tables here >>
I’ll be back in your inbox (twice!), on Friday…
Best wishes,
