Premiership - 20th October 2012


Tottenham (6/4) v Chelsea (7/4)

Chelsea haven’t won in 6 visits to White Hart Lane but they come here as the most impressive team in the Premiership bar none so far and have already beaten Arsenal 2-1 on their travels, so look well worth supporting to stamp their title credentials once again. The new look midfield triangle of Mata, Silva and Oscar is not only a huge asset with the ball but a massive threat on the counter which makes them arguably the most dangerous team in the League. Andrea Villas Boas’s side have done well after a shaky start, but this is a test that’s going to be as tough as even Manchester United for them and Chelsea can stay unbeaten at the least.

Advice: 3 pts Chelsea draw no bet (21/20 Coral)

Fulham (5/6) v Aston Villa (7/2)

Is it wasn’t for the fact that Fulham won none of the last six Premier League meetings with Aston Villa, they would be one of the cornerstones of the coupon this weekend. Villa are still finding their feet under Paul Lambert’s new playing style so need time, and while they’ve been making plenty of opportunities, they’ve been worryingly open at the back. Over 2.5 goals looks the call.

Advice: 3 pts over 2.5 goals (5/6 Bet Victor)

Liverpool (2/5) v Reading (9)

Liverpool’s woes were significantly worsened when their one out and out striker in Fabio Borini was ruled out for six months, and they can’t be trusted in their current run of form at Anfield. Reading may be right at the basement of the league, but with the Reds misfiring on all levels, they may be able to avoid embarrassment at the least.

Advice: 1 pt Reading +1.5 on Asian H’Cap (17/20 Bet Victor)

Manchester United (3/10) v Stoke (11)

Manchester United’s win at Newcastle was their most impressive performance of the season so far and they should have more than enough to come through a home tie against Stoke, who have been resolute but failed to score in visits to Anfield and Stamford Bridge so far this year.

Advice: 1 pt Manchester United to win to nil (11/10 general)

Swansea (23/20) v Wigan (13/5)

Swansea’s flying start to the campaign has been taken down by poor defending and they look dodgy odds on favourites to beat a Wigan side more than capable of outperforming their odds in this kind of game. Roberto Martinez’s side have played much better than results suggest so far this season and can get a point at least out of their trip to Wales.

Advice: 1 pt Wigan +0.5 on Asian H’Cap (5/6 Bet Victor)

West Brom (17/4) v Man City (8/11)

Manchester City looked to have the form of last season back when beating Sunderland 3-0 but that game may have deceived, with the Mackems have offered little to nothing in terms of attack. West Brom have won all 4 of their home games in the League this season and are arguably the toughest trip City have made all season. With both teams having scored in all but one of City’s games this season, the 4/5 on that happening again makes appeal although over 2.5 goals also makes appeal.

Advice: 1 pt Over 2.5 goals (4/5 Coral)

West Ham (10/11) v Southampton (7/2)

Southampton have let in 20 goals this season and are winless on the road, while West Ham Fulham, QPR and Aston Villa so far this season, two of them at Upton Park. The Saints have the firepower to be competitive at this level but their defence has let them down on many occasions and they may be overpowered by the Hammers, who put up a strong fight at Arsenal before being outclassed.

Advice: 2 pts West Ham (10/11 general)
