Chelsea v Tottenham

Match resultTottenham

7/2

Our view is that Spurs at 7/2 is a fair price or a touch better. Chelsea have scored 14 in their last six but conceded 11 and allowed 5.8 shots on target a game. Spurs have lost only two of their last six and give up 3.0 shots on target a game. The sharp market makes Spurs about a 22% chance and our model about 27%, so the price is on our side.

Liverpool v Brighton

Match resultBrighton

12/5

Our pick is Brighton at 12/5. They've won four of their last five, scoring 15 and conceding none in those wins, and average 6.0 shots on target a game. Liverpool have been solid but not free-scoring: 7 goals in their last six. The market makes Brighton about a 30% chance; we make it higher.

Arsenal v Everton

Match resultDraw

18/5

Our view is the draw at 18/5. Everton have drawn four of their last six and lost only one. Arsenal win a lot but by small margins: 8 goals in six games, all five wins by one or two goals. The sharp market puts the draw at about 22%; at 18/5 the price is a little better than that.

Coventry v Fulham

Match resultDraw

11/4

Our pick is the draw at 11/4. Coventry have scored 6 in their last six and Fulham 5. Our model has this as close to a coin flip between the sides, and a draw at about 27%. The sharp market agrees at about 27%, and 11/4 is the best UK price we found.
