Fulham vs. Everton |
 |
Draw at 3.70 (Betfair)
Four of the last eight games between Fulham and Everton at Craven Cottage ended in a draw. Everton have been involved in a league-high 15 draws this season. This includes six of their last ten fixtures. Had you wagered $1 on the draw for every Everton away fixture over the last twelve months, you would be up $7.30 in profit.

Southampton vs. Man City |
 |
Man City in the head-to-head at 1.22 (bet365)
Yes, the odds are low, but Southampton have gone 0-1-12 as the home underdog this season. Man City are still fighting for a Champions League spot. They bring a five-game winning streak into this clash in all competitions.
 |
Ipswich vs. Brentford |
 |
Over 2.5 goals at 1.53 (bet365)
Ipswich’s last seven games went over 2.5 goals and their last six home games went over 2.5 goals. Their porous defence is the root cause of that statistic. Ipswich’s last five opponents all scored 2+ goals. Twelve of Brentford’s 18 away games over the last twelve months went over 2.5 goals. Their previous fixture against Ipswich saw seven total goals.
Brentford in the head-to-head at 1.66 (Betfair)
Ipswich have gone 1-3-10 as the home underdog this season, while Brentford have gone 2-0-0 as the away favourite.
SGM: Brentford to win and over 2.5 goals at 2.05 (bet365)
Combining the above two picks.

Newcastle vs. Chelsea |
 |
Newcastle in the head-to-head at 2.15 (Dabble)
Newcastle Draw No Bet at 1.64 (Dabble)
Newcastle +0.5 at 1.41 (Betfair)
This game could have a huge bearing on who receives a Champions League spot next season. Newcastle and Chelsea sit 4th and 4th in the standings, respectively, with the same number of points. The form-lines for the two sides bears strong resemblance. Newcastle bring 6-1-2 form into this game, compared to 6-2-1 for Chelsea. My lean is towards the hosts, however, due to the venue. Newcastle have won five in a row at St. James’ Park and their last three home wins were by 3+ goal margins. Chelsea have gone 0-0-4 as the away underdog this season and they lost this fixture by a 4-1 margin last year. Chelsea have a midweek Europa Conference League fixture ahead of this clash, while Newcastle will not have played since the previous weekend.

Tottenham vs. Crystal Palace |
 |
Tottenham +0.5 at 1.57 (Betfair)
With the FA Cup final looming the following weekend, the mindset of every Palace player will be, “don’t get injured, don’t get suspended.” We might even see Glasner rotate out key players for this clash. Through all of the manager turnover at each club over the years, Crystal Palace have managed to lose nine consecutive away games against Tottenham. Palace haven’t won an away game since February and they are winless in five league games. Tottenham, for their part, have been poor this season, which is why I have opted for the Asian Handicap rather than the head-to-head market.

Nottm Forest vs. Leicester |
 |
Nottingham Forest in the head-to-head at 1.36 (bet365)
Nottingham Forest to win to nil at 2.19 (BoomBet)
Nottingham Forest need this win to stay in the race for a European spot. Leicester City, meanwhile, are playing for pride only. The Foxes have lost 17 of their last 20 games. Leicester City’s last 12 defeats were all to nil. Seven of Nottingham Forests’ nine home wins over the last twelve months were to nil.
