Manchester United (Draw no bet) -110
⁃ United created a plethora of chances against Fulham although they only won 1-0, I expect them to get a result here and will be happy with a push if this ends in a draw. United have a stronger squad and hoping they can carry their momentum forward and sneak away with a 1-0 or 2-1 win
West Ham Crystal Palace Draw +260
⁃ I expect this to be a very open game that can go either way. Some of West Hams new signings should get minutes in this game which should help slow down Palace. West Ham have a better team in my opinion but playing Palace away can be difficult, I like a draw in this spot.
Fulham ML -125
⁃ Fulham played very well on their opener regardless of losing the game 1-0. I expect them to bounce back and get their first win of the season against a newly promoted Leicester City team.
Tottenham -1.5 +115
⁃ Tottenham will not be happy with blowing a 1-0 lead and about a billion chances in game week 1. I’m expecting a big bounce back and a convincing win here.
Nottingham Forrest PK -105
⁃ Southampton lost 1-0 after playing up a man for 75% of the game. I’ll take Forrest in this spot to win with the draw being a push.
Arsenal ML -120
⁃ Favorites on the road against a top 4 team last season who improved? Very weird line & Villa ruined Arsenals title hopes last year which lead to Arsenal finishing 2nd, I expect Arsenal to come back for revenge and win a close one here.
Chelsea vs Wolves under 3 -115
⁃ Chelsea have signed more players than I can count and Wolves lost two of their best players over the past two seasons. Chelsea lack chemistry in the final third but are a much better team. I’ll take under 3 goals in this
Newcastle ML +120
⁃ Newcastle have a much better team and Bournemouth lost their best player two weeks ago after Solanke left for Tottenham. I’ll take Newcastle here all day even though it is a bit of an odd line.
