Teams at the bottom don’t normally win too many football games.
Yet, my betting tips go against the grain this weekend.
For since when has sports betting been straightforward!
Bournemouth vs Brighton & Hove Albion (September 16, 03:00 GMT+8)
Four defeats in four games is a miserable start to the new season for Bournemouth.
Only the fact they have scored a solitary goal keeps them off the foot of the table.
Newly promoted Brighton are the visitors to the Vitality Stadium this weekend, boosted by a first victory of the campaign (against West Brom) and a first top-flight success since 1983 which suggests they may not be relegation certainties.
However, after Cherries boss Eddie Howe described last weekend’s 3-0 reverse at Arsenal as one of the worst performances in his entire time as manager, I expect a reaction.
I have 2 x 🌟🌟🌟 tips – both backing a home win: First Half 1X2 Bournemouth @ 2.84 and Asian Handicap -0.50 Bournemouth @ 2.17.
Crystal Palace vs Southampton (September 16, 19:30 GMT+8)
The reason Bournemouth aren’t bottom is because Crystal Palace have become the first top-flight club in 93 years to neither gain a point nor score a goal in their opening four games.
Frank De Boer was, scandalously, given no chance as he became the shortest-serving manager in Premier League history.
Dismissed after 77 days, Palace now owe his successor a performance and, more crucially, a result.
They will get it against a Saints side struggling for consistency themselves.
Expect Roy Hodgson to engineer an instant improvement and a display which De Boer craved.
Another 🌟🌟🌟 offering is 1X2 Crystal Palace @ 3.00.
Tottenham Hotspur vs Swansea City (September 17, 00:30 GMT+8)
It’s September and Harry Kane is scoring again – what’s not to like, Spurs fans?
After his double against Everton last weekend made him a goal centurion, Swansea seem the perfect opponents for Tottenham to end their Wembley woes.
Their attacking fluency should be far too strong for the visitors still coming to terms with a new look and the departure of Gylfi Sigurdsson and Fernando Llorente.
My final 🌟🌟🌟 tip of the weekend is Asian Handicap -2.00 Tottenham @ 2.21 with a 🌟🌟 plump for total goal 4-6 @ 2.57.
