RACHACE

The last nine times that Arsenal and Brighton have faced each other at the Emirates Stadium, Arsenal won 3 times and Brighton won 4 times. At the odds available, Brighton are worth a bet here in my opinion.

Brentford have won only 1 of their last 5 games in all competitions, and that victory came against bottom-of-the-league Wolverhampton Wanderers. They host Bournemouth, who are now 8 games without a win in the Premier League. They have, however, drawn their last 3 on the bounce, and another draw looks likely here in my opinion.

Everton come into this after back-to-back defeats in the Premier League. They also have notable absentees in Gueye and Ndiaye due to AFCON, and both Branthwaite and Dewsbury-Hall are out due to injury. At the odds available, Burnley are worth a bet.

Liverpool might well be six unbeaten in all competitions, but their season has been completely derailed by inconsistent form and some really poor results. A number of teams have won at Anfield this season, including a poor Man U, so at the odds available I'm happy taking a punt on Wolves here.

West Ham are six without a win now in the Premier League, and things are starting to look bleak. They have drawn at least three of those six games, and since Fulham have lost three of their last five games in all competitions, they might just pick up another point here.

Man U have a number of notable absentees for the visit of Newcastle United, and it looks like a really tough game for them. Newcastle have also won five of the last six head-to-head meetings between the two sides, so for me Newcastle look a decent bet here.

All of the last six head-to-head meetings between these two sides, in either the National League or League Two, have been very close. There has been a victory for each team and four draws, including a draw in the National League play-off final in 2023. A very close game seems likely here, and a draw looks a decent bet.

Both Reading and Plymouth have the same points at this stage of the season in League One, so this looks like it will likely be a very close game between two fairly evenly matched teams. Only Wigan Athletic have drawn more games than Reading in League One this season, so I'm happy backing a draw here.

Stockport County have scored only 11 goals in their 10 home games in League One this season. Lincoln City have scored only 10 goals in their 10 away games in League One this season. With Stockport averaging just over a goal per game at home and Lincoln averaging a goal a game away from home, I feel that under 2.5 goals is worth a bet.

This is a significant game at the top end of League One as 2nd-place Lincoln City travel to take on Stockport County, who currently sit in 5th place. Only 3 points separate the two sides, so this looks like it could be a very close game. Lincoln City are 4 unbeaten in League One, winning 3 of those 4 games, but their recent away form isn't particularly good. Lincoln City are 5 without a win away from home, so for me they look a risky bet to win. Stockport County have been very inconsistent of late and at home are 3 without a win in League One. Their home form isn't particularly good overall, as they're 14th in the table based on home results but are top based on away results. That makes Stockport County equally as risky from a betting perspective. A very close game seems likely here and I'm backing a draw. Five of the last six games in League One for Lincoln City have finished with both teams scoring, so a score draw seems a decent bet.

Fulham have an excellent record against Nottingham Forest in their recent head-to-head meetings. The Cottagers have won five of the last six games against Forest, but they come into this after back-to-back defeats at home. Nottingham Forest have won three of their last four away games, too, so I fancy Forest to get a draw here.

All of Fulham's last five games in all competitions have finished with both teams scoring. BTTS looks like a solid bet here.

Elche and Rayo Vallecano have both played 16 games in La Liga this season, and 1 point separates them. With that in mind, this looks like it will be a very closely fought contest. Elche have also drawn three of their last four home games in La Liga, so I'm happy backing a draw here.

All of the last five La Liga games for Rayo Vallecano have finished with under 2.5 goals. Unders look like a solid bet here.

Three of the last four head-to-head meetings between these two sides in La Liga have finished with both teams scoring. BTTS looks a decent bet here.

After 15 games played in Serie A, Fiorentina are still searching for their first win of the season. They host Udinese, who've only won one of their last six away games, losing four of those six matches, so they look a risky bet despite Fiorentina being in terrible form. A draw looks a decent bet here, in my opinion.

Mantova come into this after having lost their last three games on the bounce in Serie B. They host Empoli, who've lost six of their last eight away games, so they're a risky bet despite Mantova having lost their last three. For me, the draw looks a decent bet.

Barcelona are in excellent form having won all of their last 6 games in all competitions and in La Liga they've won their last 7 on the bounce. However, Villarreal are a very decent side and at home they've played 8 games in La Liga, winning 7 and drawing 1. Villarreal have also beat Barcelona in 2 of the last 3 head to head meetings between the two sides. A draw looks a reasonable bet hete.

All of the last four head-to-head meetings between these two sides have finished with over 2.5 goals scored. Overs looks a solid bet.

Barcelona are in excellent form, having won all of their last six games in all competitions. In La Liga they've won their last seven on the bounce. However, Villarreal are a very decent side, and at home they've played eight games in La Liga, winning seven and drawing one. Villarreal have also beaten Barcelona in two of the last three head-to-head meetings between the two sides. All of the last four head-to-head meetings between these two sides have finished with both teams scoring, so I'll back a score draw here.

Arsenal haven't won any of their last three away games in the Premier League, and away at Everton they've only won once in the last seven. Everton are worth a bet here at 6/1.

Crystal Palace took a hammering off Manchester City in their last Premier League game, and they followed that up with a very disappointing result against KuPS in the UEFA Conference League. It's that competition that's seemingly caused Palace a lot of problems, as they're yet to win a game that has followed midweek participation in the UEFA Conference League. A trip to Elland Road looks a very tricky task. Leeds have looked decent in recent weeks and will be very high on confidence, as they've beaten Chelsea 3-1 and held champions Liverpool to a 3-3 draw in their last two home games. Leeds are capable of getting something against Palace in my opinion.

After suffering three defeats on the bounce, Liverpool are unbeaten in their last five games. However, in that five-game unbeaten run there are draws against both Leeds United and Sunderland, who were both promoted from the Championship. I'm still not convinced that Liverpool have turned any kind of corner that makes backing them viable. Tottenham haven't looked convincing all season, and their latest Premier League result was a pretty shocking 3-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest. They have, however, won their last two home games. I'm not feeling confident backing either team, if I'm being honest, and the draw might just offer the best bet here.

Bournemouth are seven games without a win now and look a very risky bet at such short odds, even against Burnley. The last eight head-to-head meetings between the two sides have seen Burnley win five times, too, so maybe Burnley are worth a small bet here.

Sunderland come into this game after what will have been a huge, confidence-boosting victory against their bitter rivals Newcastle. They look a really good price to beat this Brighton team, who've only picked up 1 point from the last 9 available.

Middlesbrough are in fantastic form, having won all of their last four games in the Championship. However, they've not beaten Bristol City in any of their last seven head-to-head meetings and have actually lost all of their last four games against the Robins. So, despite Middlesbrough being in excellent form, I'm backing a draw here.

Hamilton have only won 1 of their last 6 games in all competitions, while Alloa have only won 1 of their last 7 games in all competitions. Neither side can be trusted to win this game, in my opinion, and a draw looks a solid bet.

Kilmarnock are in terrible form and are currently 10 games without a win in the Scottish Premiership. They host Falkirk, who themselves are in a patch of poor form, having only won once in their last six games in the Scottish Premiership. I can't back either of these teams with any confidence, so I'm backing a draw here.

Chesterfield are in the playoff places in League Two, while Shrewsbury Town are just outside the relegation places in League Two. However, Chesterfield have been struggling to win games away from home recently, with just 1 win from their last 7 away games in League Two. At home, Shrewsbury Town have been picking up points and are currently 5 unbeaten at home in League Two. Shrewsbury Town look capable of getting another useful point here.

Wolves are having a terrible season and are yet to win a single game in the Premier League. They also come into this after losing all of their last 10 games. Brentford, however, are terrible away from home. The Bees have played 8 away games in the Premier League this season and have lost 7 of those 8 away games. Neither team can be trusted to win the game, in my opinion, and a draw looks a solid bet.

Five of the last six head-to-head meetings between these two sides have finished with both teams scoring. BTTS looks a solid bet here.

Considering the overall form of Wolves and the away form of Brentford, a low-scoring score draw seems a decent bet.

Wycombe are five without a win now in all competitions, so they're a risky bet here. Bolton, however, have only won twice in their last nine away League One games, so they too are a risky bet. A close game seems likely, and the draw looks a decent bet.
