Watford vs Liverpool: Predictions, tips & betting odds

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The hosts are yet to keep a clean sheet this season and could be in for a long afternoon against the top scoring outfit in the Premier League

Watford welcome Liverpool to Vicarage Road on Saturday with new Hornets boss Claudio Ranieri hoping to get off to a winning start in the Premier League.

The Italian replaced Xisco Munoz just before the international break with the side having picked up seven points from a possible 21, but Ranieri will know his new team face a real challenge this week against an in-form Liverpool outfit.

Watford vs Liverpool latest odds

Liverpool’s last defeat in any competition came in the Champions League against Real Madrid in April and the visitors are clear favourites to triumph on Saturday priced at 1/3 (1.33) with bet365.

Watford, meanwhile, have won two of their seven games in the English top flight this term and are offered at 15/2 (8.50) with the draw at 9/2 (5.50).

Watford vs Liverpool first goalscorer

Mohamed Salah is unsurprisingly the shortest-priced player to open the scoring with the Egyptian in scintillating form so far this campaign.

Salah has scored in each of his five league appearances and is offered at 3/1 (4.00) to break the deadlock, ahead of strike partners Diogo Jota and Sadio Mane who are both available at 9/2 (5.50).

The Hornets’ top scorer this term is Ismail Sarr with four league strikes and the Senegalese forward is priced at 14/1 (15.00) to net the game’s opening goal.

Watford vs Liverpool preview

17 Premier League matches have passed since Watford kept a clean sheet with their last shutout coincidentally coming against Liverpool in their famous 3-0 home win back in February 2020.

The hosts will have plenty of work to do if they are to repeat that defensive performance against a rampant Reds side who have been scoring freely this term, particularly on the road.

Jurgen Klopps’s team have scored three goals in each of their last four away matches in the league and, while they might have one eye on Tuesday’s Champions League clash away to Atletico Madrid, there is little doubt that the visitors will fancy their chances of continuing their impressive scoring run. 

Watford vs Liverpool tips & predictions

An away win and over 2.5 goals in the game looks like a solid selection and is offered at the healthy-looking price of 10/11 (1.91).

Manchester City vs Burnley: Predictions, odds & betting tips

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Boasting an extremely dominant recent record against the Clarets, Al Hain-Cole expects Guardiola's men to enjoy a big win at the Etihad Stadium

The Etihad Stadium will be in an expectant mood when Manchester City take on Burnley in Saturday’s Premier League clash.

City boast an imposing record over this opposition, having won 12 and lost none of the last 13 meetings.

Manchester City vs Burnley latest odds

Indeed, Man City are clear 1/9 (1.11) favourites with bet365 to extend that dominant streak by making it nine wins in succession against the visitors.

Sean Dyche’s side have gone 10 league matches without a victory but Burnley can be backed at 16/1 (17.00) to pull off a major upset by coming out on top here.

Two of the hosts’ last three league matches have resulted in draws, and there are odds of 8/1 (9.00) on them being forced to settle for a single point once again.

Manchester City vs Burnley first goalscorer

With Ferran Torres out injured, Gabriel Jesus, Phil Foden, Raheem Sterling and Kevin De Bruyne are all at 5/1 (6.00) to open the scoring, with the Brazilian hitting the net four times in eight appearances against this opposition.

Chris Wood is a lengthy 16/1 (17.0) first goalscorer shot for the visitors as he struggles on just one goal from the seven opening league games, while Ashley Barnes is priced at 20/1 (21.00) after failing to score since February.

Manchester City vs Burnley preview

Having faced away trips to Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain and Liverpool in the space of a just over week prior to the international break, Pep Guardiola’s men will be grateful to return to action with a less ominous-looking game on home turf.

Indeed, the Clarets have proved very welcome visitors to this ground in recent seasons, taking no points from their last seven visits and losing each of the last four by the same 5-0 scoreline.

It is hard to see them improving on that record considering they have taken just three points from the last available 30, losing seven out of 10 matches and winning none.

Manchester City vs Burnley tips & predictions

Having scored at least five goals in five of their last six matches at the Etihad Stadium, odds of 20/21 (1.95) seem generous on City beating Burnley by three goals or more for their seventh home encounter in a row.

Leicester vs Manchester United: Predictions, odds & betting tips

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With Rodgers' men missing some key players at the back, Al Hain-Cole is backing the Red Devils to extend their excellent away record with another win

Leicester will be aiming to kick-start their Premier League season when they welcome Manchester United to the King Power Stadium on Saturday.

Brendan Rodgers’ side have made a disappointing start to the campaign, claiming just eight points from their seven opening matches and failing to win any of their last four.

Leicester City vs Manchester United latest odds

However, having come out on top in each of their last two games against this opposition, Leicester are available at 5/2 (3.50) with bet365 to earn a much-needed morale boost by coming out on top once again.

Man Utd are also in low spirits after taking just one point from the last available six but are 21/20 (2.05) favourites to get back on track with a victory here.

Just one of the last seven meetings between this duo has resulted in a draw, but you can get odds of 13/5 (3.60) on them cancelling each other out on this occasion.

Leicester City vs Manchester United first goalscorer

With six goals to his name in seven league games so far, Jamie Vardy is his side’s 13/2 (7.50) favourite to open the scoring, while Kelechi Iheanacho can be backed at 15/2 (8.50) after scoring twice in last season’s 3-1 FA Cup win over this opponent here.

Cristiano Ronaldo started on the bench in the 1-1 draw with Everton prior to the international break but is the 3/1 (4.00) front runner to break the deadlock, with Bruno Fernandes a 7/1 (8.00) shot at a ground where he has scored in two of his three previous visits.

Leicester City vs Manchester United preview

After taking just one point from their last two home games against Aston Villa and Everton, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men might be feeling relieved to go back on the road again for this clash.

Indeed, they have looked far more assured away from home than at Old Trafford recently, currently enjoying a club record 29-match unbeaten streak in the league on their travels.

Leicester City vs Manchester United tips & predictions

With the Foxes in poor form and missing a number of key defensive players, 21/20 (2.05) seem generous on United bouncing back with a victory at a ground where they remained unbeaten in each of their last six visits.

Brentford vs Chelsea: Predictions, tips & betting odds

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Thomas Frank's men have impressed against both Arsenal and Liverpool and should be able to score against the current European champions this weekend

Saturday’s late kick-off in the Premier League is a first ever top-flight west London derby between Brentford and Chelsea as Thomas Tuchel’s men make the short trip to the Brentford Community Stadium.

The Blues went into the weekend top of the table following five wins from their opening seven games, yet the Bees are only four points behind them having made an impressive start in their debut Premier League campaign.

Brentford vs Chelsea latest odds

The Bees were victorious in their last London derby at home, beating Arsenal 2-0, while their most recent match in front of their own fans saw them play out a thrilling 3-3 draw with Liverpool.

Brentford can be backed at 11/2 (6.50) with bet365 to claim a historic win over their most illustrious neighbours, while Chelsea are priced at 4/7 (1.57) and the draw at 14/5 (3.80).

Brentford vs Chelsea first goalscorer

Romelu Lukaku is the clear favourite to break the deadlock on Saturday evening with the Belgian forward priced at 3/1 (4.00) to score first, something he has already done twice in the Premier League this term, although whether he is fit enough to feature remains to be seen.

Brentford’s top scorer last season Ivan Toney has two league strikes to his name this season and is priced at 6/1 (7.00) to open the scoring, with Kai Havertz and Timo Werner offered at the same odds. 

Brentford vs Chelsea preview

Newly-promoted sides often struggle for goals in their aim to survive in the top flight, yet so far Brentford have had few problems in the final third.

Their total of 10 goals in seven games is the seventh highest in the division, with Thomas Frank seeing seven of his players find the back of the net this term.

Having scored three goals last time out against a previously barely penetrated Liverpool defence, Brentford will believe they can score once more despite Chelsea’s strong defensive record.

The Blues have conceded just three times this season (the same number of goals that Liverpool had let in before their visit to the Bees) but could be without both Thiago Silva and Antonio Rudiger, and opposing the visitors to keep a clean sheet should appeal.

Brentford vs Chelsea tips & predictions

Both teams to score is offered at evens (2.00) which looks like an attractive price for what should be an open derby.

Newcastle vs Tottenham: Predictions, odds & betting tips

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Recent encounters between Bruce's men and Spurs have produced plenty of goalmouth action at St James' Park, and Al Hain-Cole expects more of the same

Newcastle United will be hoping to celebrate the start of a new era with a victory when they welcome Tottenham to St James’ Park for Sunday’s Premier League clash.

The Magpies are now arguably the world’s richest football club following their takeover by a Saudi investment fund during the international break, bringing an end to the unpopular Mike Ashley ownership.

Newcastle vs Tottenham latest odds

With the fans in high spirits, Newcastle can be backed at 9/4 (3.25) with bet365 to keep the party going by securing a first victory of the season at the ninth attempt.

Nuno Espirito Santo’s men halted a run of three successive league defeats by beating Aston Villa last time out and Spurs are 23/20 (2.15) favourites to make it two wins in a row here.

The last two matches at this ground have both resulted in draws, and you can get odds of 5/2 (3.50) on this one also finishing up all square.

Newcastle vs Tottenham first goalscorer

Fit again after four matches out with injury, Callum Wilson is his side’s 9/2 (5.50) favourite to open the scoring for his third league appearance in four this season. 

Allan Saint-Maximin has found the net in the last two home games and is priced at 10/1 (11.0) to break the deadlock in this one.

With four goals to his name in his last two visits to this ground, Harry Kane is available at 3/1 (4.0) to finally open his account for the league campaign with the first goal here.

Son Heung-min has scored in three of his seven league games so far and is on offer at 13/2 (7.50) to grab the opener.

Newcastle vs Tottenham preview

While Steve Bruce’s team have won just three of their last 16 league matches on home turf, those matches have rarely been short on entertainment.

Indeed, 21 of their previous 26 home league games have seen both teams on target, with their three matches this season averaging four goals per fixture.

Another high-scoring clash seems likely considering Spurs have produced over 2.5 goals in each of their last seven away games, with five of those producing goals at both ends.

Newcastle vs Tottenham tips & predictions

All in all, odds of 20/21 (1.95) look like solid value on both teams getting on the scoresheet and over 2.5 goals being scored for the fourth consecutive meeting between Newcastle and Tottenham at this ground.

Barcelona vs Valencia: Predictions, tips & betting odds

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Jose Bordalas's side have an excellent scoring recording against the Catalans and our La Liga expert Phil Kitromilides is backing the visitors to net

Barcelona welcome Valencia to Camp Nou on Sunday evening in La Liga with Ronald Koeman’s side facing a crucial week even at this early stage of the season.

The visit of Los Che is followed by a must-win Champions League clash with Dynamo Kyiv before the first Clasico of the campaign next weekend against Real Madrid.

Anything other than three wins would increase the pressure on Koeman who will be aiming for three points against his former side on Sunday.

Barcelona vs Valencia latest odds

Barcelona have won just one of their last six matches in all competitions, yet they are clear favourites this weekend priced at 1/2 (1.50) with bet365.

Valencia are winless in their last four games after a flying start to La Liga and are offered at 11/2 (6.50) with the draw available at 10/3 (4.33) .

Barcelona vs Valencia first goalscorer 

The game should see a Barcelona debut for Sergio Aguero who is likely to come off the bench at some point for his first minutes in a Barca shirt.

The Argentine is the shortest-priced player to open the scoring at 7/2 (4.50) the same odds offered for Memphis Depay.

Luuk de Jong is priced at 9/2 (5.50) with Ansu Fati at 5/1 (6.00) , while the favourite to open the scoring for the visitors is Maxi Gomez at 17/2 (9.50) .

Barcelona vs Valencia preview

The Catalans have kept just two clean sheets in nine competitive matches and their defensive problems could be exacerbated this weekend by the absence of the injured Ronald Araujo, arguably their best centre-back this season.

Valencia are the third top scorers in La Liga and have scored in all but one of their matches this term, showing plenty of attacking threat, with Goncalo Guedes recapturing his best form and Maxi Gomez maintaining his goalscoring touch.

Backing the visitors to find the back of the net on Sunday evening makes plenty of sense and Los Che have scored in each of their last 12 league clashes with Barcelona. 

Barcelona vs Valencia tips & predictions

The visitors are offered at 8/15 (1.53) to score, but backing them to net over 1.5 goals at 11/4 (3.75) looks highly appealing, with this selection paying out in each of the last six meetings in all competitions.

Atletico Madrid vs Liverpool: Predictions, tips & betting odds

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Last year these two side played out a tight game in the Spanish capital and there should be plenty of interest in opposing a high-scoring game again

Atletico Madrid welcome Liverpool to the Wanda Metropolitano on Tuesday evening in matchday three of the Champions League as Jurgen Klopp’s side aim to continue their strong start in Group B.

The Reds have won both of their matches in the competition so far and another victory in the Spanish capital would all but secure their spot in the last 16.

Atletico, meanwhile, were held to a goalless draw by Porto in their first home clash and will aim to make home advantage count in their noisy and atmospheric stadium

Atletico Madrid vs Liverpool latest odds

Liverpool are on a stunning run of form away from home, winning eight and drawing one of their last nine matches away from Anfield in all competitions.

The Premier League side are favourites to claim three points, offered at 6/5 (2.20) with bet365, with Atletico at 21/10 (3.10) and the draw at 23/10 (3.30).

Atletico Madrid vs Liverpool first goalscorer

Mohamed Salah has been in spectacular form this season with the Egyptian scoring some superb goals in recent weeks.

Salah has scored in eight consecutive games for his club and is the shortest-priced player to break the deadlock in Madrid at 4/1 (5.00).

Team-mates Diogo Jota and Sadio Mane are priced at 13/2 (7.50) to open the scoring while Luis Suarez is available at 11/2 (6.50) to score first against his former team. 

Atletico Madrid vs Liverpool preview

Liverpool’s exceptional run on the road has been accompanied by a prolific scoring record, with the Reds netting 33 times in their last nine away games.

Tuesday, however, sees them face the best defensive side in La Liga and Diego Simeone’s team are generally well organised and extremely difficult to break down.

Indeed, at home in the Champions League, Atletico have kept eight clean sheets in their last 12 matches, with Liverpool themselves among the sides to have failed to score in that run, losing 1-0 in February last year.

The side from the Spanish capital have kept clean sheets in their last three matches at home in all competitions and should be able to make life difficult in the final third for the visitors. 

Atletico Madrid vs Liverpool tips & predictions 

Under 2.5 goals is priced at 4/5 (1.80) and looks like an appealing option, while both teams to score ‘no’ is offered at a healthy looking 19/20 (1.95).

Shakhtar Donetsk vs Real Madrid: Predictions, tips & betting odds

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Carlo Ancelotti's men have not been prolific on the road in Europe recently and they could struggle against a side who caused them problems last year

Real Madrid travel to Ukraine on Tuesday evening to face Shakhtar Donetsk in Group D of the Champions League with Carlo Ancelotti’s men aiming to get back to winning ways.

Los Blancos suffered a humiliating home defeat to Moldovan champions Sheriff Tiraspol on matchday two, before suffering their first La Liga defeat of the season against Espanyol five days later. 

Shakhtar Donetsk vs Real Madrid latest odds

Shakhtar have one point from their opening two matches having drawn with Inter following a defeat to Sheriff on matchday one.

The hosts can be backed at 5/1 (6.00) with bet365 to claim a win and beat Real Madrid both home and away in the group stage of last year’s tournament.

The 13-time European champions for their part are offered at 8/15 (1.53) while the draw is available at 3/1 (4.00).

Shakhtar Donetsk vs Real Madrid first goalscorer

Karim Benzema is on a prolific run of scoring form having already netted 10 times for Real Madrid in all competitions and the Frenchman is offered at 11/4 (3.75) to score first on Tuesday.

The only other Madrid player to have netted in Europe this term is Rodrygo who is priced at 13/2 (7.50) with his Brazilian compatriot Vinicius Junior available at 5/1 (6.00).

Shakhtar are yet to score in the competition, but their top scorer domestically is Lassina Traore who can be backed at 15/2 (8.50) to break the deadlock. 

Shakhtar Donetsk vs Real Madrid preview

After a promising start to the season the goals have seemingly dried up for Real Madrid with Los Blancos scoring just once from open play in their last three matches.

In the Champions League, they have failed to score more than once in any of their last five games and there could be some interest in opposing a high-scoring game against a Shakhtar team who have kept three clean sheets in their last four home Champions League group-stage clashes.

Madrid’s recent away record in Europe is underwhelming, scoring just two goals in their last five games on the road and another tight game in Kyiv looks on the cards

Shakhtar Donetsk vs Real Madrid tips & predictions

Under 2.5 goals has paid out in eight of Real Madrid’s last 11 Champions League matches and a repeat is priced at a healthy looking 13/10 (2.30).

Barcelona vs Dynamo Kyiv: Predictions, tips & betting tips

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The hosts have been in poor defensive form this season and with a couple of important defenders missing there is value in opposing a Barca clean sheet

Barcelona welcome Dynamo Kyiv to Camp Nou on Wednesday evening on matchday three of the Champions League with Ronald Koeman’s side already facing a crucial game at this early stage of the competition.

Two defeats from their opening two matches have left Barca bottom of Group E and another loss to the side from Ukraine would put the Catalans in real danger of missing out of the knockout stages.

Barcelona vs Dynamo Kyiv latest odds

These two sides met at this stage of the competition last season with Barca recording a nervy 2-1 home win despite being from their best win.

Barcelona remain clear favourites to claim another success at 1/4 (1.25) with bet365 while Kyiv can be backed at 9/1 (10.00) to secure their first win in the tournament this term, with the draw offered at 11/2 (6.50).

Barcelona vs Dynamo Kyiv first goalscorer

The Liga side are yet to score in the Champions League this season but will be confident of ending that barren run on Wednesday evening.

Sergio Aguero made his Barcelona debut in the weekend win over Valencia and is the shortest-priced player along with Memphis Depay to break the deadlock at 3/1 (4.00).

Ansu Fati has been in excellent scoring form since returning from injury and is priced at 9/2 (5.50) while for the visitors Victor Tsyganov is available at 11/1 (12.00).

Barcelona vs Dynamo Kyiv preview

There is plenty of pressure on the Catalans coming into the game with the hosts knowing they have little margin for error given their back-to-back 3-0 defeats against Bayern Munich and Benfica respectively.

In theory Dynamo Kyiv are the weakest side in the group yet the Ukrainians caused Barca plenty of problems last season and will be hoping to capitalise on their opponents missing both Eric Garcia and Ronald Araujo in defence.

Barca have kept just two clean sheets in 10 matches so far this term and opposing them to keep the visitors at bay on what could be a nervy night at Camp Nou should appeal. 

Barcelona vs Dynamo Kyiv tips and predictions

Both teams to score is offered at the healthy-looking price of evens (2.00) with this selection allowing punters to double their initial investment should both sides fail to keep a clean sheet.

Chelsea vs Malmo: Predictions, odds & betting tips

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With Tomasson's men looking out of their depth in the Champions League group stage, Al Hain-Cole expects the Blues to ease to a simple victory

Chelsea will be determined to bounce back from defeat when they welcome Malmo to Stamford Bridge for Wednesday’s Champions League clash.

The Blues were beaten for just the second time in 15 matches in this competition last time out, going down 1-0 away to Juventus.

Chelsea vs Malmo latest odds

However, Chelsea are clear 1/10 (1.10) favourites with bet365 to put that behind them by coming out on top against their Swedish visitors.

Jon Dahl Tomasson’s Malmo are bottom of Group H without a point to their name but can be backed at 20/1 (21.0) to pull off a massive upset by defeating the reigning champions, or 10/1 (11.0) to earn even a point.

Chelsea vs Malmo first goalscorer

Romelu Lukaku is priced at just 21/10 (3.10) to open the scoring with his first goal in seven games, while Timo Werner can be backed at 9/2 (5.50) after scoring four times in his last seven for club and country.

Antonio-Mirko Colak is the visitors’ 20/1 (21.0) favourite to break the deadlock with a 20th goal in all competitions this season, with Veljko Birmancevic a 28/1 (29.0) shot to add to the four goals he scored in seven qualification matches en route to the group stage.

Chelsea vs Malmo preview

After coming through an arduous qualification campaign that started way back in July to reach the group stage for the first time in six years, Malmo have looked rather out of their depth at this level for far.

Click Here: AFL Football Guernsey

Having lost 3-0 at home to Juventus and 4-0 away to Zenit, they will surely struggle to cause problems for a team that conquered Europe in impressive fashion just five months ago.

Thomas Tuchel’s men have only conceded five times in their last 15 matches in the Champions League, keeping a clean sheet in five of their last seven games on home turf.

Chelsea vs Malmo tips & predictions

Unlikely to be troubled at the back, and with a host of star attacking players to call upon, Chelsea look well worth 4/5 (1.80) odds to win by at least three clear goals against a Malmo team that have lost by that margin in each of their last five group-stage fixtures.
