Manchester United ML (+310)
Brighton ML (+220)
Brentford ML (-165)
Everton vs Southampton under 2.5 goals (-136)
Parlay odds: +3556
Manchester United ML over Manchester City (+310), 7:30 am ET
Manchester United have been living in Man City’s shadow for a number of years, pretty much ever since the great Sir Alex Ferguson left Old Trafford a decade ago. But right now, under new head coach Erik ten Hag, United are on their way back to the top and they will like their chances of taking down their bitter rivals at big odds.
United have won 8 straight games with 5 shutouts in their last 6. As for Manchester City, they looked poor in their 2-0 defeat to Southampton on Wednesday and could be set for a tough time here.
Brighton ML over Liverpool (+220), 10:00 am ET
The 2nd team at big odds to consider backing in Saturday’s EPL action is Brighton, who host Liverpool. Brighton, with World Cup winner Alexis Mac Allister back in the team, are on fire at the moment having scored 14 goals in 4 matches.
They are playing some great soccer and they will love the fact that Liverpool are without their colossus of a center-back Virgil van Dijk, who is injured. Brighton are only a point behind Liverpool in the standings and Jurgen Klopp’s Reds are a long, long way from their best.
Everton vs Southampton under 2.5 goals (-136), 10:00 am ET
Goodison Park stages a massive game at the bottom end of the standings with Everton taking on Southampton. Both teams are in the relegation places and neither can buy a win at the moment.
Everton head coach and ex-England captain Frank Lampard is under massive pressure and new Southampton head coach Nathan Jones is also feeling the heat, though he lifted the tension on Wednesday night when his Saints side somehow beat Man City in the League Cup – and beat them well.
Everton have only scored 14 EPL goals in 18 games while Southampton have only scored 15 in the same number of games. This is going to be tense, tight and likely low on goals.
Brentford ML over Bournemouth (-165), 12:30 pm ET
Brentford are loving life in the Premier League once more. This unfashionable London club defied the odds to stay up last season following promotion and in their second campaign among the EPL big boys they are in the top half of the standings.
And you definitely cannot say the same about Bournemouth, who are heading the other way having lost 7 of their last 8 games. No team has conceded more goals than Bournemouth, who are leaking them at an average of over 2 per game, and Brentford have great attackers who can make them suffer.
