Time to dive into another hectic Saturday that sees footballing action from up and down England and further afoot.
And today’s longshot is available at 110/1 with BetUK.
- Leicester to beat Bournemouth to nil
- Man City (-2) v Southampton
- Spurs to beat Brighton
- Norwich to beat Preston to nil
- Barnsley to beat Exeter
Leicester to beat Bournemouth to nil
Leicester shook off their early-season slump with an excellent 4-0 win over Nottingham Forest and I think that will kickstart a decent spell of form for the Foxes.
And with Bournemouth failing to score in each of their last three at home, I fancy a comfortable away victory.
Man City (-2) v Southampton
City are absolutely flying at present, winning each of their last five games, and Pep Guardiola’s men have scored 14 in their last three outings.
Southampton, on the other hand, have lost their last three and are unlikely to offer much resistance in the face of intense City pressure.
Spurs to beat Brighton
This one is certainly a bit of a banana skin, but odds of 17/10 make Spurs a great value bet this weekend.
Brighton are in decent nick but have conceded plenty in recent weeks, so if we see Tottenham’s best from a defensive point of view, their forward line should have enough to do the rest.
Norwich to beat Preston to nil
Norwich are nicely nestled in the top two of the Championship, and their undefeated run in the division now stands at nine games.
They next face a Preston side that has won just two of its last ten, and quite remarkably, despite sitting in the top half, have scored just four goals in 12 league games.
Barnsley to beat Exeter
The Yorkshiremen look set for a tilt at the League One play-offs and head into this weekend on a run of four consecutive victories.
Exeter come to town next, but the Grecians have won just one of their last 15 League One away games and will also have to make do without manager Matt Taylor, who departed for Championship side Rotherham during the week.
