It’s another bumper Premier League Sunday, folks, with five games to choose from and four of those landing in the 2pm kick-off slot, all simultaneously airing on Sky Sports in the UK. Thank you, multi-view.
Of course, the game of the day is at the Etihad, where Man City host Liverpool in a huge game at the top as they both try to chase down the North London juggernaut that is Arsenal. Elsewhere, Aston Villa have a tricky home game against an in-form Bournemouth, while Brentford host a Newcastle side struggling for form away from home. Forest look to build on their home form against Leeds, and Palace take on Brighton at Selhurst Park.

Bet 1: Manchester City vs Liverpool – Man City to Win
City haven’t beaten Liverpool in all competitions since April 2023. It’s a damning stat for a Pep Guardiola side that’s been so dominant over his nine years in charge at the Etihad. But this isn’t a vintage Liverpool team right now. Slot is struggling to find the right balance in the middle of the park, and it’s costing them dearly away from home, losing each of their last three.
The hype is all around Haaland right now as he’s dominating the top scorer stats. He’s on fire, scoring 13 goals in ten games, but at 10/3 to score first, he’s uber-skinny. Plus, he hasn’t got a great H2H against Virgil van Dijk, scoring just twice against him in seven appearances for club and country.
We’re going with a City win for Sunday’s blockbuster. It’s priced at 9/10 and it seems good value given they’ve won each of the last four at home, scoring 13 and conceding just four. Liverpool’s form worries us, and even though they’ve had two good wins over Villa and Real Madrid midweek, City are looking back to their best after an early-season wobble and our numbers are backed by Kickform’s prediction of a 45% chance of City winning the game.
Bet 2: Crystal Palace vs Brighton – Over 2.5 Goals
It’s the annual head-scratcher game as football fans outside of the two clubs try to work out why there’s a rivalry here. But that aside, this could be one of the games of the weekend, and we’re expecting goals.
Our attention immediately shifted to both teams to score market. It’s covered in ten of the last 12 meetings, and Palace are already at 60% for the season at home, with Brighton topping that at 80%. It’s priced accordingly, but odds of 4/7 don’t get the juices flowing.
What’s the next best option? Over 2.5 goals, of course. In terms of head-to-heads, it’s covered in each of the last three, and for this season, Brighton are at 60% away from home and Palace 50% at home. Again, it’s on the short side at 8/11, but when BTTS is so heavily prominent and Kickform’s predictions for Palace vs Brighton are at 63%, we’re happy to take the price and move on.
Bet 3: Aston Villa vs Bournemouth – Bournemouth to Win
Just when you thought Aston Villa had turned the corner, they looked poor at Liverpool last weekend. Granted, it’s no shame losing to the current Premier League champions on their home patch, but they were on the back of a five-game losing streak in the league and there for the taking. We wanted to see so much more from Emery’s side, but it didn’t come to fruition.
We’re concerned about Villa’s lack of squad depth while playing three games a week in Europe. Bournemouth come into the game fresh and in great form, with 18 points from their opening 10 games. They got a well-earned point here last season and we’re backing the fitter, fresher Cherries to go one better on Sunday.
Kickform’s Aston Villa vs Bournemouth predictions have the game incredibly close (39% Villa, 21% draw, 40% Bournemouth), so when you get odds of 11/5 (31.3% implied probability) with bet365, that suggests +24.4% in expected value (+EV), which is huge.
