Jake Chapman Football Tips

Fist thing to note here is Brighton and Hove won this fixture last year 3-2. Liverpool have a mixed record on the coast. The home outfit have found form recently winning three in four losing only to Arsenal. Brighton/Draw is the recommendation here.

Fulham have a terrible record against Burnley, but the visitors are such a poor outfit they even lost to Mansfield Town.

Chelsea can't be trusted to get the job done. They have a poor recent away record at Everton. That manager in the dugout with his pen and notepad can't be trusted either. Everton/Draw the recommendation.

Turkey are the higher ranked outfit and, crucially, have home advantage in this World Cup clash. The hosts have been reliable when going off as odds-on shots in the last year, winning their last three, which adds confidence. Romania have been less convincing, failing to beat lowly Cyprus for example.

Czechia have been really poor in the last year, losing to the Faroes and failing to beat Saudi Arabia in a friendly. In contrast, Ireland stunned Portugal not long ago. The men in green can definitely take this to extra time, if not steal a win. Ireland/Draw the call.

Northern Ireland (69) have played away in Italy (13) five times since 1957 and lost all five of those games. Barring a slip-up to Norway, Italy had won all seven previous games before that when odds-on. The visitors look up against it.
