Everton v Brentford (Sat, 5:30pm)
Everton to win, both teams to score, Dominic Calvert-Lewin to score – (was 6/1) NOW 7/1 – CLAIM HERE
Everton head into the weekend’s clash at Goodison Park having won each of their last three matches on their home patch, keeping a clean sheet in all of them.
Wednesday night’s win in the Merseyside derby, their first home derby victory in 14 years, not only saw them derail Liverpool’s title aspirations but also effectively ended their own fears of relegation, leaving them eight points clear of the bottom three with just four games to play.
Everton have not only won three of their last four games but have also managed to put their previous scoring woes behind them seemingly, scoring in five of their last six matches, while the same can be said of seven of Brentford’s last nine games, including 10 in their last three outings.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin has refound his goal scoring form of late, bagging three in his last four games to take himself clear as the Toffees’ leading goal scorer this season.
Aston Villa v Chelsea (Wed, 8pm)
Aston Villa to win, over 3.5 goals, John McGinn to score – (was 19/2) NOW 12/1 – CLAIM HERE
Aston Villa have opened up a six point lead over Tottenham in the race for the fourth and final Champions League qualifying position, and can extend that lead to nine points on Saturday with Spurs not playing until they take on top of the table on Arsenal on Sunday.
Unai Emery’s side have won four and drawn one of their last five games at Villa Park, and will be hoping to extend that record this weekend against Chelsea side who have seen at least four goals scored in nine of their last 10 matches in all competitions.
John McGinn’s goal in the semi final of the Europa Conference League quarter final against Lille took him one shy of the double digit marker for the season, which he will be aiming to hit this weekend, against a Chelsea side he scored against last season.
Hull v Ipswich (Sat, 8pm)
Ipswich to win, over 3.5 goals, Conor Chaplin to score – (was 27/4) NOW 8/1 – CLAIM HERE
Promotion-chasing Ipswich make the trip to Humberside on Saturday night having lost just one of their last six games and two of their last 12, leaving them one point behind the automatic promotion places in third place, with a crucial game in hand, heading into the weekend.
Saturday night’s Championship bout sees two of the most in form teams in the second tier go head-to-head, with Hull having scored 12 in their last six league games, while Ipswich have scored 11 across the same span of games.
Conor Chaplin’s 13 goals this season sees him top the Tractor Boys’ scoring charts this season, a tally he’ll be looking to add to this weekend to fire Ipswich to the Premier League after just one fleeting season in the second tier.
