Premier League Preview 26th Nov

Man Utd take on West Ham at Old Trafford in one of eight games in the Premier League Wednesday night. The Red Devils are the 4/7(general) favourites as they seek their 14th home win in their last 16 games in all competitions. West Ham have been a revelation in how well they have settled into the Premier League on their return though they come here on the back of a defeat to Tottenham. The draw is a best priced 11/5 (BetVictor) while an away win is as big as 19/2 (BetVictor). United should win but look a little short. The way to play this is in the both teams to score market where you can get YES at 18/19 (BWin). United have not kept a clean sheet in any of their last six in the Premier League.

Man City are at Wigan and are 4/7 (Totesport/betfred/BetVictor) the victory while the draw is 31/9 (pinnacle) and a Wigan win is 61/11 (pinnacle). City have a good record against Wigan winning six and losing none of their last seven league meetings. We mentioned before about the amount of home goals Wigan concede (13 in seven home league games) and Man City could be worth taking here at 15/8 (Stan James) to score over 2.5 goals. United grabbed four against Wigan, Liverpool three and you think under pressure this defence could crack.

Chelsea take on Fulham and the terrible away form of Fulham should be enough to see the Blues home here though odds of 1/2 (BetVictor/Coral/william hill) look a little short. Those who fancy Fulham to get something out of the game can get the draw (of which the last four head-to-head meetings have finished) at 49/13 (Pinnacle) or a Fulham victory is 34/5 (Pinnacle). Staying in London and Tottenham entertain Liverpool with Spurs the 19/13 (Pinnacle) favourites while the draw is a best priced 28/11 (Pinnacle) and an away victory is 21/10 (Totesport/betfred/paddy Power). Liverpool have drawn their last three Premier League away games and I would not be shocked to see this one end all square. In another game that could have Champions League implications Everton take on Arsenal with the Merseysiders 13/8 (paddy Power), an Arsenal win is 39/19 (Pinnacle) and the draw is 13/5 (Stan James). Thomas Vermaelen has scored in both appearances at Goodison Park and bearing in mind the number of set pieces goal Everton are conceding looks value at 25/1 (Blue Sq/888 Sport/BWin) to score first or 8/1 with the same bookmakers to score anytime.

Southampton take on Norwich and the Canaries could be the bet here despite the decent home form of the Saints. Chris Hughton and his men are on an unbeaten run of seven games in all competitions and only the two Manchester sides have more points from their last six games.

It is 13/8 (bet365) Norwich in the draw no bet market and that looks the way to play it. Speaking of draw no bets that is also the way to play the Swansea and West Brom as West Brom look the value at 5/4 (BetVictor). The Baggies are full of confidence and their opponents Swansea do not possess the same power. The final game Wednesday sees Stoke on Newcastle and this looks a tough game too call. Stoke are difficult opponents at home and are evens (general) the victory here while the draw is a best priced 23/9 (Pinnacle) and a Magpies victory is 36/11 (Pinnacle). Newcastle have been in awful in recent weeks however Stoke draw a few at home so I might just give this game a miss.

BEST OF THE BETS

GOLD: West Brom draw no bet v Swansea, 5/4 (BetVictor)
SILVER: Norwich draw no bet v Southampton, 13/8 (bet365)
