Europa League Final – RheinEnergie Stadion

Sevilla and Inter Milan lock horns in the final of the Europa League on Friday evening.

Much to everybody’s delight, the Europa League final has come around and promises to be an interesting battle between two sides who are no strangers to European successes.

Sevilla, the most decorated side in this competition overcame Manchester United 2-1 in their semi-final, meanwhile Inter Milan thrashed Shakhtar Donetsk in Dusseldorf.

Sevilla have won this competition more than any other club and are aiming to clinch their six Europa League/UEFA Cup. Inter Milan on the other hand, following their exit from the Champions League, have won all five of their Europa League encounters this term and are looking to win six consecutive European matches for the first time since the 2009/10 season.

Antonio Conte will be desperate for his side to claim some silverware this season after missing out on Italy’s Scudetto by only a point. Inter come into this one as the favourites and are priced at 11/10 on SkyBet to win in 90 minutes.

Sevilla have never lost in a European final (P5 W5). Only Liverpool and Real Madrid boast a better winning record in finals.

Inter Milan’s Romelu Lukaku will be looking to add to his 33 goals this season and add to his tally in this years competition. The Belgian netted twice in Inters’ semi-final rout over Shakhtar and is priced at 7/2 on Bet365 to score first.

Three or more goals have been scored in four of the last five finals in this competition, and over 2.5 goals is priced at EVENS on SkyBet.

Dutchman Daniele Makkelie is in charge for this years final. The 37-year old is taking charge of his first European final. Makkelie has overseen seven games in Europe this season (Champions League/Europa League) accumulating a total of 24 yellow cards. For this one, I would recommend a minimum of 30+ booking points.

This match will be televised live on BT Sport 1HD with kick-off scheduled for 20:00 GMT.

Charlton Athletic vs Millwall
Friday 3rd July 2020
Championship, The Valley

Live on Sky Sports Main Event HD – Kick-Off: 20:15 BST

Charlton Athletic will host Millwall in Championship action this Friday night as both teams have it all to play for at both ends of the table.

Charlton find themselves only a few points from the drop zone after a positive start to life since the lockdown. Meanwhile, Millwall are just five points from the play-off places but will be hoping to turn their draws into wins as they boast a whopping league-high 17 draws this season.

Charlton Athletic have a tough evening ahead of them and are priced at 12/5 by SkyBet to win the match. Lee Bowyer’s side have struggled for consistency this season but have picked up positive results since the restart with a draw against Cardiff and wins against QPR and Hull. They face a much tougher test, however, against a Millwall side that likes to press high and not give them time on the ball.

Going forward, Macauley Bonne has impressed this season and is priced at 23/10 to score anytime.

Millwall are favourites to claim three away points on Friday night and are priced at 23/20 to win the match. Gary Rowett’s side were only able to get a draw against Swansea City in their last match, despite dominating for large parts of the match. Their aerial and physical presence has served them well this season and has seen them claim most of their points against sides such as Charlton during the campaign.

In attack, Matt Smith has been their main source of goals with 12 this season. He is priced at 2/1 to score anytime.

Last time these two met, a very late goal from Lions top goal scorer Matt Smith broke Addicks hearts at the Den with a 91st minute winner. Jonathan Leko had cancelled out Sean Hutchinson’s early strike as just 20 booking points were brandished. This time around, SkyBet are offering 13/8 for 50+ booking points.

The match will be televised on Sky Sports Main Event HD and kicks off at 20:15.

Prediction: Charlton Athletic 1-2 Millwall

– The visitors have impressed despite only claiming draws and should have too much for the relegation-threatened hosts.

West Ham United vs Chelsea
Wednesday 1st July 2020
Premier League, London Stadium

Live on Sky Sports Premier League HD – Kick-Off: 20:15 BST

Free-falling West Ham United will play host to London rivals and top four hopefuls Chelsea in Premier League action this Wednesday night.

The Hammers have just two wins in 2020 as they have the worst record in the whole division over the last ten matches. They have failed to score since the restart. Meanwhile, Chelsea are on fire with six straight victories in all competitions with their most recent wins over Leicester in the FA Cup and Manchester City in the league.

West Ham United are huge underdogs for this match despite having home advantage as they are priced at 17/4 to win the tie by SkyBet. David Moyes’ side find themselves in deep trouble as they fight to keep their topflight status. There are a number of teams in the same position and whilst West Ham have the quality to dig themselves out of the mess, they are unlikely to claim any points this Wednesday.

In attack, they will hope Sebastian Haller can find inspiration from somewhere as he is priced at 13/5 to score anytime.

Chelsea are favourites for this match-up and are priced at 4/7 to claim three more points in their bid for top four. Frank Lampard’s side have been mightily impressive in recent weeks as they have reached fourth in the league table with seven matches to go. Whilst they have not blown teams away on the score line, they have tightened up their defence which has allowed their attack to prosper.

Going forward, Christian Pulisic has impressed since returning from injury and is priced at 6/4 to score anytime.

Last time these two met, West Ham pulled off a shock 1-0 victory thanks to a second half goal from left-back Aaron Cresswell. A second goal for the Hammers was disallowed due to a VAR check as 30 booking points were brandished at Stamford Bridge. This time around, SkyBet are offering 11/8 for 50+ booking points.

The match will be televised on Sky Sports Premier League HD and kicks off at 20:15.

Prediction: West Ham United 0 – 2 Chelsea

– The visitors should be in complete control of this match and should cruise to three more points.

Brighton vs Manchester United
Tuesday 30th June 2020
Premier League – Amex Stadium

Live on Sky Sports Main Event / Pick TV – Kick-off: 20:15

Brighton return to the Amex Stadium when they host Manchester United in the Premier League on Tuesday evening.

Brighton have been terrific since the Premier Leagues resumption and have distanced themselves from the relegation zone. Graham Potters’ side beat Arsenal before drawing with Leicester in their most recent encounter.

Manchester United returned to winning ways in the league with a 3-0 triumph over Sheffield United last time round. Anthony Martial struck a fantastic hat-trick, and became the first player to do so since Sir Alex Ferguson left the club over 7 years ago. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side are unbeaten in seven Premier League matches.

United were 3-1 winners in the reverse fixture back in November and are priced at 3/4 on SkyBet to claim all three points. Brighton however have had the better record at home against United and have won both of their encounters on home turf since their return to the Premier League.

In this fixture BTTS has landed in each of the last three Premier League encounters. Furthermore, there has not been a draw in a game between these two sides eight meetings, a 28-year time frame.

The referee for this clash is Andre Marriner. The 49- year old has overseen 18 Premier League matches this season, accumulating 47 yellow cards and 2 red cards. November’s meeting between these two sides produced 7 yellow cards.

Marcus Rashford has scored in his last two Premier League appearances against Brighton. SkyBet are offering odds of 6/4 for the 22-year old to make it three from three and add to his 14 league goals this season.

In Brighton’s last four Premier League encounters, there has been a minimum of 30+ booking points. Over 2 cards for Brighton is priced at 3/1 on SkyBet.

This match will be shown live on Sky Sports Main Event/Premier League & Pick TV, with kick-off scheduled for 20:15 on Tuesday evening.

Manchester City vs Liverpool
Thursday 2nd July 2020
Premier League – Etihad Stadium

Live on Sky Sports Main Event/Premier League – Kick-off: 20:15

Manchester City host newly crowned Champions Liverpool on Thursday night in the Premier League.

City’s 2-1 defeat to Chelsea a week ago ended Liverpool’s 30-year wait to become Premier League Champions. This week’s clash at the Etihad still promises to be a special one despite Liverpool’s confirmation as Champions.

Pep Guardiola will be keen for his side to add one more defeat to Liverpool’s record this season, and try to prevent them from becoming centurions just like his side were just two years ago. City come into this one fresh from securing a place in the FA Cup semi-final thanks to a comprehensive 2-0 win away to Newcastle on Sunday.

Liverpool meanwhile will be eager to rub salt into the wounds of City by beating them on home soil. Jurgen Klopp’s side dismantled Crystal Palace 4-0 last Wednesday in the Premier League and attention now turns to surpassing the 100 point mark in the Premier League.

Liverpool were 3-1 winners in the reverse fixture back in November. City were 2-1 winners at the Etihad last season which ended up being Liverpool’s only league defeat of the season. City have won only two of their last seven meetings with Liverpool in all competitions.

Kevin De Bruyne has been sensational since City returned to action. The Belgian has scored in three of City’s four matches since the coronavirus stoppage and is priced at 5/2 to score anytime on SkyBet.

Anthony Taylor is the man in charge of this one. The 41-year old has overseen 26 Premier League matches this season, accumulating a total of 105 yellow cards and 5 red cards. Taylor took charge of this exact fixture last season and awarded 6 yellow cards in City’s 2-1 win. This considered, I would recommend a minimum of 30+ booking points for this one.

Liverpool’s Mo Salah is chasing his third consecutive Premier League golden boot trophy and will be keen to add to his 17 Premier League goals this season. Salah is priced at 2/1 to score anytime on SkyBet.

This match will be televised live on Sky Sports Main Event/Premier League with kick-off scheduled for 20:00 on Thursday evening.

Aston Vila vs Wolves
Saturday 27th June 2020
Premier League – Villa Park

Live on BT Sport 1HD/Ultimate – Kick-Off: 12:30 BST

Aston Villa return to Villa Park when they host Midland’s rivals Wolves in the Premier League on Saturday lunchtime.

Since the Premier Leagues return the form of these two sides couldn’t be too much more of a contrast. Villa have failed to win any of their three matches since the resumption (D2 L1) meanwhile their counterparts Wolves have won both of their encounters ad they chase down a Champions League spot.

Dean Smith’s side are 19th in the division and are one of three teams on 27 points, attempting to avoid relegation. Villa are 7 without a win in the league, with their last triumph coming at the end pf January. It’s testing times if you’re from a Villa persuasion.

Wolves meanwhile are going from strength to strength and are just two points behind Chelsea in 4th. Nuno Espirito Santo’s side are unbeaten in 7 in the league and have won four of their last five.

Wolves ran out 2-1 winners in the reverse fixture back in November thanks to goals from Ruben Neves and Raul Jimenez. The Mexican has scored in both of his appearances since the leagues resumption, and 14 times in total this season. He is priced at 23/20 to score anytime in this one.

Villa have won 2 of the last 3 meetings in this fixture, with Wolves claiming the other win. In each of the last 3, BTTS has landed. Wolves to win and BTTS is priced at 3/1 on SkyBet.

Craig Pawson is the man in charge of this one. The 41-year old has taken charge of 17 Premier League affairs this season, brandishing 68 yellow cards and 2 red cards. November’s meeting between these two produced 7 yellow cards; I would recommend a minimum of 40+ booking points for this one.

Wolves’ Joao Moutinho has been booked in his last two Premier League appearances and was yellow carded back in Novembers meeting. The Portuguese is priced at 10/3 to be booked in 90 mins on Bet365.

This match will be televised live on BT Sport 1 with kick off scheduled to take place at 12:30 today.

Championship, Griffin Park

Live on Sky Sports Football HD – Kick Off: 19:45 BST

Play-off hopefuls Brentford will host promotion favourites West Brom in a Championship top of the table clash this Friday night.

The Bees have been mightily impressive this season and look to be favourites to secure a play-off place and potentially earn promotion to the Premier League. Meanwhile, West Brom find themselves top of the pack with eight matches remaining as they hope to fend off Leeds United for first place.

Brentford have a tough job on their hands but are favourites to win the match as SkyBet have priced them at 11/8 to come out victorious. The Bees snatched an impressive late victory against Fulham with two goals after the 85th minute upon their return to the pitch. Their attack is incredibly fluid, with plenty of skilful dribblers and creative movement that could cause West Brom a headache on Friday night,

Going forward, Ollie Watkins has been the stand-out bags man for Brentford with 22 goals this season. He is priced at 13/8 to score anytime.

West Brom must improve upon their last performance and are priced at 2/1 to claim an away victory. The Baggies could only manage a 0-0 draw with Birmingham City in their return match last weekend and will be frustrated with the missed chances. Usually such a clinical outfit, West Brom looked rusty and will want to find their shooting boots against tougher opposition in Brentford.

In attack, Matheus Pereira is at the centre of everything good about the Baggies and is priced at 7/2 to score anytime.

Last time these two met, a closely fought battle was ended with a 1-1 score line after Henrik Dalsgaard’s opener was cancelled out by Darnell Furlong just before half-time. 30 booking points were brandished during that match and SkyBet are offering 1/1 for 40+ booking points this time around.

The match will be televised on Sky Sports Football HD and kicks off at 19:45.

Prediction: Brentford 1-1 West Brom

Manchester United return to Old Trafford on Wednesday night when they host Sheffield United in the Premier League.

Both sides will be looking to return to winning ways in the league after failing to do so since its resumption. Manchester United returned on Friday night and were held 1-1 with Tottenham Hotspur. Sheffield United on the other hand are yet to win in their two matches after the Premier Leagues return. They drew 0-0 with Aston Villa last Wednesday and were well beaten 3-0 by Newcastle on Sunday.

Only two points separate these two sides ahead of kick-off. Manchester United are on 46 points in 4th, meanwhile the Blades are in 7th on 44. Both sides have aspirations of securing European football for next season.

Novembers meeting between these two was a thriller and finished in a 3-3 draw at Bramall Lane. Ollie McBurnie struck in injury time for Sheffield United to ensure a share of the spoils.

The Blades will be without goalkeeper Dean Henderson who is ineligible to feature against his parent club. Henderson has kept 11 clean sheets this season and level with Alisson and Nick Pope in the battle for the golden glove.

Manchester United have won three of the last four meetings in this fixture and are priced at 4/9 on SkyBet to take all three points in this one.

The referee for Wednesday’s encounter is Anthony Taylor. The 41-year old has overseen 25 Premier League matches this season, accumulating a total of 104 yellow cards and 5 red cards. Novembers meeting between these two produced three yellow cards, and I would recommend a minimum of 30+ booking points.

Tottenham Hotspur return to home soil for the second time in a week when they host West Ham United in the London derby on Tuesday evening.

Both sides will be looking to clinch their first win following the Premier Leagues return. Spurs were held 1-1 by Manchester United on their return, meanwhile West Ham were beaten 2-0 at home by Wolves on Saturday evening.

Spurs come into Tuesday night’s fixture on a four-game winless run in the Premier League, with their last win coming back in February away to Aston Villa. West Ham on the other hand have lost seven of their last nine in all competitions and are in the thick of a relegation battle.

Spurs were 3-2 winners in the reverse fixture back in November, which at the time was a winning start for Jose Mourinho in his first match as Tottenham manager. Son Heung-Min opened the scoring for Tottenham in November and is priced at 7/5 to score anytime in this one on SkyBet.

Spurs have won three of the last four meetings in this fixture and are priced at 7/10 on SkyBet to win in 90 minutes.

5 of the last 9 meetings between these two sides has seen four or more goals. Over 4.5 goals is priced at 7/2 on SkyBet.

West Ham have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 10 consecutive Premier League matches, meanwhile Spurs have gone 6 without a shut-out. BTTS is certainly a market worth exploring for this one.

Craig Pawson is the man in charge for this one. The 41-year old has taken charge of 16 Premier League games this season, accumulating a total of 64 yellow cards and two red cards; an average of four yellow cards per game. November’s meeting produced five yellow cards between these two. This considered, I would recommend 30+ booking points at the very minimum.

West Ham’s Robert Snodgrass has been yellow carded in his last three appearances against Spurs and is priced at 12/5 on SkyBet to be carded on Tuesday evening.

This game will be televised live on Sky Sports Main Event/Premier League with kick-off scheduled for 20:15 BST on Tuesday evening.

Manchester City return to the Etihad for the second time in a week when they host Burnley in the Premier League on Monday evening.

Pep Guardiola’s side returned to business as normal with a comprehensive 3-0 victory over Arsenal on Wednesday night, a result which ensured that runaway leaders Liverpool must wait a little longer before being crowned Premier League champions.

Burnley meanwhile are coasting in 10th and have distanced themselves from a clump of sides striving to avoid relegation. Prior to the Premier Leagues stoppage, Sean Dyche’s side were unbeaten in five, winning twice and drawing three.

City came out on top in the reverse meeting in December with a convincing 4-1 win at Turf Moor. City have an impressive record against Monday’s opponents and have won eight of the last nine meetings. Burnley’s last win in this fixture came back in March 2015.

City’s Sergio Aguero came on from the bench on Wednesday night against Arsenal but will be licking his lips at the prospect of another match against Burnley. The Argentine has score nine goals in his last seven appearances against Burnley and is priced at 11/4 to score first.

The referee for this one is Andre Marriner. The 49-year old has taken charge of 17 Premier League matches this season, awarding 45 yellow cards and 2 red cards. This considered, I would recommend a minimum of 30+ booking points for this one. January’s meeting between these two sides produced two yellow cards.
