As the dust settles on another crazy transfer window the action returns to the football pitch today.
West Ham went top of the table with a win at Luton last night and today its Spurs’ and Man City’s chance to reach the summit.
Tottenham make the trip to Burnley and after making a raft of changes for their EFL Cup defeat in midweek Ange Postecoglou will revert to his strongest line-up in a bid to extend their unbeaten start to the league campaign.
The Clarets like to play possession based football, while Postecoglou , not too dissimilar in philosophy, loves to press, so it’ll be an interesting match-up and one that should yield goals.
A Spurs win and Over 2.5 goals appeals at 8/5.
Man City host Fulham and it should be a routine win for the champions. They’re 20 unbeaten against the Cottagers and have won the last 14 meetings between the sides.
Value is always hard to find in these City matches but it’s a game they should score at least a couple in. They’ve hit 2, 4, 2, 4, 2, 3, 5 & 2 in their last eight at the Etihad against Fulham. Three or more City goals pays just 4/6 so how about a 5/1 goalscorer bet?
With DeBruyne injured and Gundogan gone, Rodri has stepped up to the plate on the goalscoring front. He’s already scored as many Premier League goals as he managed last season and is well priced at 5s to continue his Midas touch in front of goal this afternoon.
A flurry of new arrivals at both Chelsea and Nottingham Forest means its anyone’s guess who’ll line up at Stamford Bridge. Forest look to have recruited well and if they can gel quickly could catch out the Blues who still look in a bit of disarray.
But we should be in for a good match in the Amex for the early evening match where Brighton and Newcastle meet. Both suffered home defeats last week but have been among the teams that have caught the eye early in the season.
It’s another game where both sides will look to attack but the bookies are having a laugh with Over 2.5 Goals at just 1/2.
Brighton lead the way with the most shots (68) and shots on target (30) after three games so the 10/11 on Over 5.5 Shots on Target is attractive in this one.
In to the Championship and it makes sense to keep siding with Leicester who’s 100% record remains intact. At 1/2 they should be on you acca, or risk them leading at half-time and full-time against Hull City for a 13/10 shot.
In Scotland there’s little standing out in the Premiership but Dundee Utd should prove too strong for Airdrie in the Championship. Louis Moult is starting to look too good for this level and he can help the Arabs to all three points at Tannadice.
Queen’s Park might be top of the table but six of their have come against Arbroath. They face a tough test at Raith Rovers who look in good shape on and off the park at the moment and could be a good bet at 11/10.
All is now well at Inverness at the moment and Dunfermline could take advantage at 21/10. The Pars were unfortunate not to take all three points at Tannadice a few weeks ago and if they can turn in a similar performance in the Highlands they could edge Billy Dodds closer to the exit door at struggling Caley.
Stirling v Hamilton is match of the day in League One. The access are the only team in Scotland with a 100% record but Stirling have been impressive this season and this will be a stern test for John Rankin’s side. The Binos are tempting at 13/5.
Down in League Two money has come from Forfar who were 19/10 to win at hapless Clyde but they’ve been backed in to 6/5. Still backable but the value is disappearing fast. Likewise Stranraer, who are always tough to beat at Stair Park. Peterhead make the long trip to Ayrshire today but it’s likely to be fruitless one and the hosts can land the spoils at 11/10.
