Favourable Bets result for Gameweek 5 : 4/7
The Hard Tackle aggregate : 20/33 , 1 half-return
1. Manchester United vs Leicester City
A match that is significant for both the clubs. While United have stuttered, after a good start under Mourinho with questions being asked of the Portuguese’s pedigree for success, Leicester have failed to get any hint of form going in this campaign.
Both the teams are a potent threat going forward and The Hard Tackle can see both of them troubling the score-keepers.
Favourable Bets :
1. Both Teams to Score @ 1.80
2. Man Utd sw @ 1.66
Underdog Bets :
1. Paul Pogba to score anytime @ 2.87
2. Correct Score 2-1 @ 9.00
3. Both Teams to Score – YES and Result – Man Utd @ 3.50
2. Liverpool FC vs Hull City
It seems Liverpool have taken the gauntlet to provide entertainment and goals this season as their fixtures have produced a barrage of goals most of the time. Hull City have started the season remarkably but their recent form could be a sign of things to come as the Tigers have managed only 1 point from the last three league games.
Although they did beat Stoke in the EFL Cup in the mid-week, which could give them some confidence ahead of their match at Anfield, Liverpool’s attack seems unstoppable and it would be hard for Hull to contain the Reds’ attack on Saturday.
However, they have shown in earlier matches that they have the attacking strength to respond to their opposition’s attacks and the same could be a case, which would only be strengthened by the defensive woes of Klopp and his men.
Favourable Bets :
1. Over 2.5 Goals @ 1.53
2. Liverpool Clean Sheet – No @ 2.00
3. Mane to score anytime @ 2.10
Underdog Bets :
1. Both Teams to Score in 1st Half @ 5.50
2. Draw Or Hull @ 4.33
3. Middlesbrough vs Tottenham FC
The absence of Harry Kane did not trouble Spurs in the EFL Cup but Boro are expected to give them a tougher ride this coming weekend. Janssen, though seems to have hit his stride and could be the difference maker against Boro.
Favourable Bets :
1. Tottenham SW @ 2.00
2. Vincent Janssen to score anytime @ 2.50
3. Over 10.5 Corners @ 1.72
Underdog Bets :
1. Over 3.5 Goals @ 3.75
2. Over 13 Corners @ 3.40
4. Arsenal vs Chelsea
The match of the weekend for sure, this could just be Wenger’s best chance of breaking the chain of a series of poor results against the London rivals.
Both the teams have been on fire attacking wise and The Hard Tackle can see both of them score while corners seem to be flowing a plenty in each of their games.
Favourable Bets :
1. Both Teams To Score YES @ 1.61
2. Over 11.5 Corners @ 2.00
3. Diego Costa to score anytime @ 2.30
Underdog Bets :
1. Red Card – YES @ 3.40
2. Draw @ 3.50
3. Both Teams to Score in 1st Half @ 4.00
5. Swansea City vs Manchester City
One has already seen a preview of the matchup in the EFL Cup tie wherein Swansea struggled to match up to a City team mainly made up of second string players and youngsters.
Guidolin is under heavy pressure and is tipped to be replaced by Former Manchester United player Ryan Giggs, and this match could just prove to be the undoing of the Swans manager.
Favourable Bets :
1. Man City Asian Handicap -1.0,1.5 @ 1.85
2. 1st half Man City Asian Handicap -0.5 @ 1.825
3. Over 9.5 Corners @ 1.66
Underdog Bets :
1. Borja Baston to score anytime @ 4.00
2. Correct Score 0-0 @17.00
3. Correct Score 1-4 @ 21.00
