The Hard Tackle presents to you the one-stop shop to scour all the best betting markets for the thirty-eighth gameweek of the English Premier League
The 2017-18 Premier League campaign winds down to it’s last gameweek, with all of the fixtures to be played out simultaneously. The champions are already announced and two of the three teams to be relegated are confirmed. The fight will be between Liverpool and Chelsea for the last spot in the top four while Swansea will need more than miracles to ensure safety.
Tottenham’s match against Leicester does provide something to watch. The Foxes can still manage eighth place with a win on Sunday, provided Everton do not register a victory in their match against West Ham, who themselves are still in with a chance to finish in the top half of the Premier League table.
Before we move ahead, let us first take a look at the result of the last gameweek.
Favourable Bets result: 4/10
Underdog Bets result: 0/4
THT Favourable Bets Overall Result: 237/449
Huddersfield vs Arsenal
Huddersfield have already ensured safety but the Terriers would still be looking to improve on their current position on the table, along with ending the season on a high. Talking about ending the season on a high, Arsenal would look to do just that in what is Arsene Wenger’s final campaign as the Arsenal manager. Expect another entertaining match, with Arsenal likely to take the spoils.
Favourable Bets
1. Arsenal to win @ 1.57
2. Both Teams to Score – YES @ 1.57
Underdog Bets
1. Laurent Depoitre to score anytime @ 3.25
Liverpool vs Brighton
The Reds need just a point on Sunday to ensure a top four finish and return to the Champions League for the upcoming season, regardless of the result of their Champions League final against Real Madrid. Brighton on the other hand, can still finish as high as 10th and as low as 15th depending on other results and their own on Sunday.
The visitors will come out fighting just like they did against Manchester City. But, Liverpool should have the quality in their ranks to overcome their threat and finish in the top four. Expect Liverpool to score from a set-piece on Sunday.
Favourable Bets
1. Liverpool Asian Handicap -1.5 @ 1.525
2. Both Teams to Score – YES @ 1.95
Underdog Bets
1. Virgil van Dijk to score anytime @ 6.50
Manchester United vs Watford
For the hosts, this is nothing but a ceremonial match and we should see Jose Mourinho field some of the youngsters much to the excitement of the fans. But, Watford will be looking towards ensuring a finish in the top half of the Premier League table. While Watford do have the edge, with Manchester United likely to field youngsters, their match against West Ham last season showed that one can never discount the talent and potential of the Carrington academy graduates.
Expect United to end their league campaign with a win.
Favourable Bets
1. Manchester United Asian Handicap – 1.0 @ 1.600
2. Both Teams to Score – NO @ 2.00
Underdog Bets
1. Michael Carrick to score anytime @ 4.33
2. Manchester United to score a penalty @ 5.00
Newcastle United vs Chelsea
Chelsea must win in order to have any slim hopes of still pipping Liverpool in the race for a top four place. Newcastle United on the other hand, will be looking to end the season on a positive note, along with ending the torrid 4-game losing streak they currently are on. Expect goals in this match.
Favourable Bets
1. Both Teams to Score – YES @ 1.75
2. Chelsea to win @ 1.66
3. Under 10.5 Match Corners @ 1.66
Underdog Bets
1. Ayoze Perez to score anytime @ 4.00
Miscellaneous Bets
Southampton have all to play for and will make it tough for City to reach the 100-point mark for the season. Stoke have nothing left to play for, which could see Swansea eke out an win on Sunday. Incidentally, Crystal Palace and West Bromwich Albion will be a fixture with two teams in the best of forms currently and we should see them play out an entertaining draw.
Tottenham have looked unconvincing of late and we should expect them to produce another laboured performance against Leicester.
Favourable Bets
1. Southampton Asian Handicap +1.5 @ 1.725
2. Crystal Palace vs West Brom – Both Teams to Score – YES @ 1.70
3. Swansea to beat Stoke @ 1.90
