Brighton vs Burnley
Saturday 9th February 2019
FA Premier League, American Express Community Stadium
Live on BT Sport 1 HD – Kick-Off: 17:30 GMT
Brighton and Hove Albion will play host to relegation candidates Burnley in Premier League action this Saturday evening.
Five places and only three points separate these two, who are worryingly checking their shoulder on the teams below them. The hosts will be hoping to forget their recent form whilst the visitors will want to continue their six-match unbeaten run.
Brighton are priced at 11/10 by SkyBet to win the match. The home side have had no time for rest after their FA Cup extra-time win over West Brom on Wednesday night. They will be hoping that winning feeling can return to their league campaign as they have managed three losses and two draws in their last five matches. They would be in a much worse position however if it wasn’t for striker Glenn Murray. The attacker has 10 goals for the season, seven of which have been scored at home. He is 6/5 to score anytime.
Brighton’s home form has been rather impressive in comparison to their away form. They have conceded 12 goals in 12 home matches. If you fancy them to keep a clean sheet, then backing them to win to nil at 21/10 should tempt you.
In form Burnley are priced at a tempting 14/5 to win. Sean Dyche’s side have improved since the fear of relegation became a real threat. They are unbeaten in six league matches but are still just two points from the drop. Ashley Barnes has been the saviour for the Clarets are times and has chipped in with six goals this season. He is priced at 9/4 to score anytime.
More than half of Burnley’s Premier League away matches have been 0-0 at half-time. SkyBet are offering 11/8 for that score line at the half way point.
The referee for this match will be Stuart Attwell. The official has been rather lenient when in charge and has averaged 30 booking points in his 9 top flight matches.
Brighton vs Burnley will be televised on BT Sport 1 HD and kicks off at 17:30.
Prediction: Brighton 0 – 1 Burnley
– They have hit form at a crucial time in the season and confidence will be high for the visitors.

Manchester City vs Arsenal – Match Preview
Manchester City vs Arsenal
Sunday 3rd February 2019
FA Premier League, Etihad Stadium
Live on Sky Sports Premier League – Kick-Off: 16:30 GMT
We have a huge top of the table clash in the Premier League as Manchester City will entertain Arsenal this Sunday.
The home side will want to quickly bounce back after their shock 2-1 defeat to Newcastle. Meanwhile, the visitors will want to build on their 2-1 victory over Cardiff in their last outing.
Manchester City are heavy favourites for their encounter and are priced at 3/10 by SkyBet. Pep Guardiola’s side were shocked when they last took the field. They faced an embarrassing 2-1 defeat to Newcastle that could play a huge part in their title defence. On the scoresheet that match was Sergio Aguero, who bagged his 11thof the campaign. The Argentine is 11/4 to score first.
The home side have had six clean sheets in their last seven matches; impressive stuff. They will aim to kill off their visitors with an early goal and control the tempo and possession. The Citizens are 6/4 to win to nil.
Arsenal are priced at 15/2 to win this match. Unai Emery’s side have been a picture of inconsistency this season. They have failed to win consecutive matches in their last five attempts. Their most recent match saw them narrowly defeat Cardiff at home. Their away form makes for slightly worse reading with just one win in six away matches. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has been an inspired signing and is in the race for the golden boot. He currently has 15 goals this season, one behind Mo Salah of Liverpool. He is 9/4 to score anytime and add to that impressive tally.
Arsenal have lost three of their last four meetings with City to nil. They are a much-improved outfit now however and are likely to pose a greater threat. SkyBet are offering 6/1 for both teams to score in both halves.
The referee for this match will be Martin Atkinson. The official is one of the more lenient in the league and he has averaged 33.9 booking points in his 14 Premier League matches in the middle.
Manchester City vs Arsenal will be televised live in the UK on Sky Sports Premier League HD and kicks off at 16:30.

Leeds United vs Norwich City – Match Preview
Leeds United vs Norwich City
Saturday 2nd February 2019
SkyBet Championship, Elland Road
Live on Sky Sports Football HD – Kick-Off: 17:30 GMT
First placed Leeds United will host second placed Norwich City in SkyBet Championship action.
The result of the match could have a drastic effect on the title race for the remainder of the campaign. Currently three points split the two sides who both enter the match in rather shaky form. Expect tension, goals and drama.
Leeds United are priced at 17/20 to win the match by SkyBet. A victory would see them jump six points ahead of the rest of the competition. Scoring goals has not been a problem for Marcelo Bielsa’s side; with Kemar Roofe the main man. The striker has 14 goals this season but has failed to score in his last two matches. He is 7/1 to break the deadlock.
Last time these two met earlier in the season, Leeds easily won 3-0. However, Norwich have become a stronger outfit and Leeds have managed just two clean sheets in their last ten matches. SkyBet are paying out 9/4 for a home victory and both teams to score.
The visitors have lost just one of their last ten matches on the road and are priced at 3/1 by SkyBet to pull off a huge victory. They have become masters of the late goal and much of that accolade must be credited to Teemu Pukki. The forward has been in stellar form this season and has already bagged 17 league goals. The Finish international has scored in his last two outings and is 17/10 to score anytime.
Norwich have had a dip in form through January with just one win in their last five appearances. They have also kept one clean sheet in their last ten. You’ll get tempting odds of 8/1 for both teams to score in both halves.
The referee for this match will be Stuart Attwell. The official has officiated just one Championship match this season where he brandished a total of 40 booking points. With so much on the line and high tension, Attwell will be reaching for his pocket aplenty.
Leeds United vs Norwich City will be televised on Sky Sports Football HD and kicks off at 17:30.
Prediction: Leeds United 2 – 2 Norwich City
– It is impossible to split these two teams however it should be an open and dramatic encounter.
Suggested Tips – Leeds United vs Norwich City – (BET365):
