Premier League Cheat Sheet: Football tips, stats and offers

Welcome to BettingOdds.com’s weekly ‘cheat sheet’, where we’ll be bringing you our top football betting tips for the upcoming Premier League action. Below, you’ll find my plays for Gameweek 31, alongside justification for each selection.

Top three BTTS plays this weekend according to the stats

First, we’re looking at the both teams to score market to try and find you some Goals (or not so) Galore value. 

My three BTTS tips for this week are as follows:

Man City v Leeds - No @ 11/10

• City have only conceded one goal in their last 5 games in all competitions, while Leeds have only got on the scoresheet in one of their last three away games in the PL.

Liverpool v Aston Villa - Yes @ 8/13

• The reverse tie ended in a bizarre 7-2 win for the visitors, and while a repeat is almost certainly off the cards this weekend, I expect Villa to score at least once against a Liverpool team who shipped three goals against Real Madrid in midweek.
• The Villans have not kept a clean sheet in their last three outings so Liverpool should definitely notch at least once here.

Burnley v Newcastle - No @ 5/6

• Newcastle have only scored one goal in their last four away games in the Premier League, while under 2.5 goals has landed in each of Burnley's previous six home games.

Treble pays: 5/1 with BetVictor

This weekend's anytime goalscorer treble

Raheem Sterling v Leeds @ 13/10

• Rested in midweek against Dortmund so should start this clash and will be eager to impress. Scored in the reverse tie back in October.

Harry Kane v Man Utd @ 7/5

• Scored a magnificent brace last weekend to rescue a point for an otherwise shambolic Spurs side, has a good record vs United with 3 goals in his last 5 league outings against the Red Devils.

Jesse Lingard v Leicester @ 14/5

• Backed him last week to do the business and he delivered yet again at 4/1, scoring a brilliant individual goal against Wolves. Brimming with confidence at the moment, I fancy the England hopeful to get on the scoresheet again this weekend and add to his impressive six-goal haul for the Hammers.

Treble pays: 20/1 with Unibet

Fulham v Wolves, Jon Moss - Under 3 match cards

• Jon Moss is only averaging 2.58 cards p/g this season (no reds) so this game should be a fairly well-tempered affair with few cards.
• Under 3 cards has landed in Wolves' last three away matches.

Man City v Leeds, Andre Marriner - Under 3 match cards

• Marriner has the lowest yellow card p/g average of any ref taking charge of a game this weekend (2.40).
• City have picked up the joint-least cards of any side in the top-flight this term (33Y 0R).

West Ham v Leicester, Mike Dean - Over 2 match cards

• Mike Dean is averaging 3.50 yellow cards p/g this season and has dished out 7 red cards.
• Leicester have picked up the fourth-most yellows in 20-21 (52).

Longshot bet of the weekend

Another weekend, another longshot! This week it comes in the form of a 18/1 treble with Betfred.

West Ham to draw with Leicester @ 12/5

• Two really good sides here with little to separate them, Leicester's away form in the league this season has been excellent (just one defeat), while West Ham have lost just once in their previous nine at the London Stadium. A draw seems like a probable result here.

Man Utd to beat Tottenham @ 29/20

• Spurs were woeful against Newcastle last weekend and were lucky to get a point had it not been for the brilliance of Harry Kane. Mourinho's side have won just one of their last four in all comps and are low on confidence. United, on the other hand, have won three of their last four and look a much stronger side than their north London counterparts.

Brighton to beat Everton @ 13/10

• Brighton were unlucky not to get something from their clash with Man Utd last weekend and have shown signs of steady improvement in recent weeks, with two wins from two before that 2-1 loss on Sunday. Everton are looking shaky with three defeats and a draw from their last four outings - I think the Seagulls will edge this one.
