Stats Picks…
There’s a good week of football ahead…
With Premier League games across tonight, Wednesday & Thursday. The Scottish Premiership returning from its Winter Break tomorrow. And Football League and European fixtures to target at the weekend.
For our midweek Stats Picks, we’re focusing on the Premier League schedule, which kicks off at 7.30pm this evening…
PREMIER LEAGUE
Sheff Utd v Man City – Under 3.5 Cards
TONIGHT 7.30pm – BT Sport
This game ticks the stats boxes for ‘low cards’…
Each of Sheffield United’s last 5 Premier League games have gone Under 3.5 Cards and Under 40 Booking Points.
At home, 5 of the Blades’ last 6 have paid out in those ‘Under’ categories.
On the road, 6 of Man City’s last 7 have seen Total Cards scores of 3.0 or less.
That includes a 3-2 defeat at Wolves, where a straight Red Card for Man City goalkeeper Ederson (counts as 2 Cards, or 25 Booking Points), and one Yellow Card for defender Nicolas Otamendi (1 Card, 10 pts) brought up a total of 3.0 Cards, or 35 pts.
These two sides met just over three weeks ago in the reverse league fixture. Picking up one card apiece in a 2-0 win for City, for a Total Cards score of 2.0 (20 pts).
With the league table not putting too much pressure on either side here, another Under 3.5 Cards/ Under 40 Booking Points tally beckons.
- Under 40 Booking Points @ 8/11 (1.73) with Skybet
Or:
- Under 3.5 Cards @ 4/6 (1.67) with Betway, 3/5 (1.60) 888 Sport, Unibet, 4/7 (1.57) Bet365
Cards/ Booking Points markets also available with William Hill, Boylesports, NetBet & 10Bet.
Everton v Newcastle – Under 2.5 Goals
TONIGHT 7.30pm
The Head-to-Head on our website pinpoints tonight’s game at Goodison Park as an Under 2.5 Goals contender.
Our Last 5 Games Home/ Away comparison makes this an 80% v 80% match-up – that’s 4 of Everton’s last 5 home games going Under 2.5 Goals, and 4 out of 5 away for Newcastle.
Overall, these two sides are ranked joint-3rd in the Premier League for this ‘low goals’ bet.
Since Carlo Ancelotti took over at Everton, their two home games have produced 1-0 wins over both Burnley and Brighton.
The Toffees’ top scorer Richarlison is out injured.
Newcastle haven’t scored more than one goal in a single game in any of their last 7 outings. Scoring exactly one in their last two, a last-gasp 1-0 win over Chelsea, and before that a 1-1 draw at Wolves.
- Under 2.5 Goals @ 5/6 (1.83) with NetBet, 10Bet, BetVictor, Marathonbet, 4/5 (1.80) in general
Crystal Palace v Southampton – Both Teams to Score
TONIGHT 7.30pm
The Last 5 Games Home v Away is 80% v 80% for Both Teams to Score. And taking a wider look at the recent for, the runs are even stronger…
Palace have seen goals at both ends in 5 consecutive games – including 4 draws in a row: 2-2, 1-1, 1-1, 1-1.
Southampton have found the net in each of their last 10 away games. Scoring 2+ goals in 4 of their last 5 on the road.
