Premier League Bets
Sunderland (5/1) v Man United (4/6) Draw (11/4)
Prediction – Hard to see United not winning this one, with both RVP and Rooney back from impressive international duties after they both managed to get on the score sheet for their respective countries. I’d be tempted to back United at 4/6 but I also like Robin van Persie 1st goal scorer at 4/1 with Coral. During his time in England, Van Persie has scored eight goals in ten appearances against the Black Cats in all competitions, and six times in eight games in the Premier League.
Arsenal (1/4) v Reading (10/1) Draw (5/1)
Prediction – I won’t be backing the Gunners at 1/4, I’ve paid the price for that too many times over the last two years, but I’m interested in the 10/11 about both teams to score with Coral. Arsenal will get the job done, but they rarely make it easy. Reading, although second-from the bottom of the table, have averaged more than one goal a game this season, beating six other teams in their goals to games ratios.
Everton (4/6) v Stoke (9/2) Draw (14/5)
Prediction – I can see this being a close one, and will be backing the draw with Stan James at 14/5. I think Everton are a bit short at 4/6 and I can’t see Stoke getting the better of the Toffee’s away from home. This one won’t have many goals, so I see both teams sharing the spoils.
Today’s big bets –
– RVP First Goal Scorer @ 4/1 (Coral)
– Arsenal + Reading both to score @ 10/11 (Coral)
– Everton/Stoke Draw @ 14/5 (Stan James)
