class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Boasting a strong record against the Reds, Al Hain-Cole thinks the Frenchman could provide the key to unlock a tight encounter for Tuchel's men

Liverpool will need to dig deep for inspiration when they take on Chelsea at Anfield in Thursday’s Premier League clash.

The Reds have failed to score a single goal from open play in their last five matches on home turf and are up against a team that has only conceded twice in nine games under Thomas Tuchel.

Mohamed Salah’s penalty in the 4-1 defeat against Manchester City is the only goal Jurgen Klopp’s men have scored at Anfield in 2021, with the Egyptian star leading the Premier League scoring charts with 17 goals.

On target seven times in his last nine appearances, he is bet365’s 3/1 (4.00) favourite to open the scoring against his former club and priced at just at 5/6 (1.83) to strike anytime.

Sadio Mane has scored just five league goals in 21 games since his match-winning double in September’s 2-0 reverse encounter at Stamford Bridge but he can be backed at 11/8 (2.38) to get back among the goals here.

Roberto Firmino had a much-needed confidence booster taken away when his deflected strike against Sheffield United went down as a Kean Bryan own goal on Monday, although he is available at 15/8 (2.88) to leave no room for doubt by scoring against Chelsea for the third league game in four.

With just 10 goals to their name in nine matches under their new manager, the Blues are also slightly lacking in cutting edge as they arrive on Merseyside.

Having scored twice in his last four appearances, Olivier Giroud is their 5/1 (6.00) favourite to break the deadlock and available at 6/4 (2.50) to strike anytime.

That anytime price could well be a good option considering the Frenchman has scored seven times in 13 league appearances against Liverpool, who have kept just one clean sheet in their last eight league fixtures.

Giroud is certainly ahead of Tammy Abraham in the pecking order, with the England striker priced at 7/4 (2.75) to score a first league goal under Tuchel.

Mason Mount has hit the back of the net in two of his last four league matches and is a tempting 10/3 (4.33) longer shot to get on the scoresheet in what promises to be a tight encounter.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Dyche's men have a strong defence at home in the Premier League this season and our tipster is backing another tight affair at Turf Moor on Saturday

Arsenal are looking to win consecutive Premier League away games for only the second time this season when they travel to Burnley on Saturday lunchtime.

The Gunners surprised Leicester City 3-1 at the King Power Stadium in their last outing to keep their Europa League hopes alive, although that was only their second victory in their last six.

Burnley vs Arsenal Latest Odds

Despite their inconsistences this season, bet365 make Mikel Arteta’s men just 3/5 (1.60) to win at Turf Moor on Saturday.

Burnley have managed just a single win in their last eight Premier League games and are out at 19/4 (5.75) to complete a first league double over Arsenal, having won 1-0 in the reverse fixture in December.

Three of the Clarets’ last four have ended level and another draw is offered at 3/1 (4.0).

Burnley vs Arsenal Team News

Johann Berg Gudmundsson and Robbie Brady face late fitness tests but Ashley Barnes remains out for Sean Dyche.

Emile Smith Rowe is the only concern for Arsenal and is unlikely to be risked with Arteta having an otherwise fully fit squad.

Burnley vs Arsenal Preview

It has largely been a case of feast or famine in front of goal for Arsenal in recent weeks, with the Gunners scoring three times or more in six of their last 12 games but failing to net in four of those.

It could be a case of the latter at Turf Moor on Saturday as Burnley have shown strong defensive resilience this season, keeping a clean sheet on nine occasions and conceding exactly once 10 times.

Indeed, only Manchester City and Liverpool have shipped under two goals in more than the 19 games that the Clarets have managed this season, with only Pep Guardiola’s men managing it more times on home turf.

Burnley vs Arsenal Tips and Predictions

Each of Burnley’s last five home games in the Premier League have all seen under 2.5 goals and a repeat of that is available at 10/11 (1.91) with bet365.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The visitors have been in spectacular form in away La Liga games this season and our tipster is expecting that to continue this weekend in Pamplona

Barcelona travel to the Estadio El Sadar on Saturday evening to face Osasuna in La Liga and Ronald Koeman’s side will be hoping to continue their positive run after a memorable midweek win.

The Blaugrana scored in the final minute of injury time to salvage a 2-0 Copa Del Rey semi-final second leg win over Sevilla, a result which sent the tie to extra-time where Barca scored once more to book their place in the final. 

Osasuna vs Barcelona Latest Odds

Osasuna come into the game in similarly positive fashion, having won three of their last four matches which is their best run of the season.

A victory for the side from Pamplona can be backed at 9/2 (5.50) with bet365, while the visitors are priced at just  11/20 (1.55) and the draw at 10/3 (4.33) .

Osasuna vs Barcelona Team News

The Catalans remain without Philippe Coutinho, Ansu Fati and Sergi Roberto, while centre-back Ronald Araujo is a doubt.

Ousmane Dembele operating in a more central position at the expense of Antoine Griezmann recently, and with Barca producing strong performances in their last two matches. a repeat looks probable.

Jagoba Arrasate is still without long-term absentees Facundo Roncaglia and Chimy Avila, while midfielders Darko Brasanac and Inigo Perez are both rated as a doubtful for Osasuna.

Osasuna vs Barcelona Preview

Barca head to the city of Pamplona on a seven-match winning streak away from home in La Liga, and the Camp Nou outfit will be confident of extending that run this weekend.

The most recent meeting between the sides saw Koeman’s men record a 4-0 home win in November, but since the turn of the year Osasuna’s form has improved and they should be more competitive on Saturday night.

Indeed, Los Rojillos have scored in 11 of their last 15 league matches and while they are unlikely to produce a shock this weekend, they can at least find the back of the net.

Osasuna vs Barcelona Tips and Predictions

Barca to win and both teams to score is offered at 2/1 (3.00) and looks like providing an excellent value selection, while backing the visitors to triumph and over 2.5 goals in the match could also appeal at 6/5 (2.20) .

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The Seagulls have been strong at the back in the Premier League and our tipster is backing another tight clash when they host the injury-hit Foxes

Leicester City are looking to continue their Champions League push when they travel to the Amex Stadium to face struggling Brighton in the Premier League on Saturday evening.

Although four points clear of fifth-placed Everton, the Foxes have stuttered recently with only three wins in their last eight games and their last two games have been a 3-1 loss at home to Arsenal followed by a 1-1 draw at Burnley.

Brighton vs Leicester City Latest Odds

Despite being some 13 places above Brighton in the Premier League table, Leicester are 9/5 (2.80) outsiders with bet365 to pick up three points.

The Seagulls have not won any of their last four fixtures in the top-flight but are priced at 31/20 (2.65) to end that run with victory on Saturday.

No team has drawn more games this season than Graham Potter’s men and it is 9/4 (3.25) that they come away with a point for the 12th time in 2020/21.

Brighton vs Leicester City Team News

Aaron Connolly will need a late fitness test after injuring his back, but Florin Andone, Solly March, Tariq Lamptey and Adam Webster are all out.

Jonny Evans missed Leicester’s midweek draw at Burnley with a calf issue and is unavailable for this one as well, with Harvey Barnes, Ayoze Perez, Dennis Praet, James Justin, James Maddison and Wes Morgan also on the sidelines.

Brighton vs Leicester City Preview

Seeing the Foxes as outsiders for this one may come as a surprise but their injury list is not one to be taken lightly, with Barnes and Maddison proving to be big misses in the final third.

Brendan Rodgers’ side created very little at Burnley without the pair and were lucky to escape with a draw, largely thanks to the goalkeeping heroics of Kasper Schmeichel.

They could face similar struggles on the south coast on Saturday as Brighton have only conceded five times in their last nine and kept a clean sheet on five occasions – albeit scoring only five goals themselves in that time.

Brighton vs Leicester City Tips and Predictions

Under 2.0, 2.5 goals on the Asian goal line is offered at 1.880 with bet365 and looks the best way to oppose goals at the Amex Stadium, with this paying out in full if there are fewer than two goals and half the stake refunded if there are exactly two.

Eight of Brighton’s last nine in the Premier League have seen under 2.5 goals whilst four of Leicester’s last five top-flight away matches have also done so.

Jean-Marie Bigard continue de susciter de nouvelles polémiques. L’humoriste ne fait pas l’unanimité dans le cœur des Français et cette fois-ci, c’est Thierry Lhermitte qui l’a recadré en lui adressant un message, au micro de RTL.

Jean-Marie Bigard est au cœur de nombreuses polémiques. Connu pour ses violents coups de gueule, l’humoriste n’a pas sa langue dans sa poche et n’hésite pas à choquer avec ses prises de position. Sa dernière protestation a fait scandale et a même indigné Thierry Lhermitte. Interrogé au micro de RTL, le comédien français a voulu passer un message à Jean-Marie Bigard pour lui dire qu’il allait trop loin. Face à Ophélie Meunier, le célèbre acteur des Bronzés, a fait part de son incompréhension et de sa colère.

La journaliste a demandé à son invité s’il avait un message à faire passer et Thierry Lhermitte a donc trouvé l’occasion parfaite pour s’adresser à l’artiste financièrement ruiné. “À Jean-Marie Bigard, qui est un grand humoriste. Mais alors, je l’ai entendu dire quelque chose qui m’a tellement choqué qu’il faut que je lui dise“, a-t-il démarré avant de poursuivre : “Jean-Marie, l’autre jour, tu as dit ‘Quand est-ce-que l’armée va rentrer à l’Élysée, arrêter l’autre et le juger dans l’après-midi ?’. Ça déjà, je pense que c’est un délit“, a-t-il finalement fait savoir. Thierry Lhermitte a continué son message : “C’est un appel à la sédition. Mais est-ce que tu crois vraiment que c’est une bonne idée d’avoir un régime militaire ? Moi je n’ai pas du tout envie d’avoir Pinochet ou les colonels grecs en France, et d’avoir une justice d’exception qui juge les gens dans l’après-midi.” Il a tenu à conclure : “Donc Jean-Marie, tu es un grand humoriste mais là, ce n’est pas drôle du tout !”

Thierry Lhermitte n’est pas le premier à recadrer Jean-Marie Bigard. L’humoriste est très souvent taclé par des célébrités et hommes politiques qui déplorent son comportement et son appel à la haine ainsi qu’à la provocation. Celui qui désirait se présenter aux présidentielles 2022 a finalement abandonné cette idée, sur les conseils de ses amis et de son épouse. Il l’a notamment fait savoir à Pascal Praud sur le plateau de L’heure des Pros, diffusé sur CNews, ce lundi 28 septembre.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The Reds endured another miserable Premier League defeat in midweek and our tipster is backing them to struggle against the Cottagers' strong defence

Liverpool are in desperation mode as they chase a first Premier League home win since December when Fulham visit Anfield on Sunday afternoon.

Things went from worse to even worse on Thursday when Chelsea became the latest team to take all three points from the Reds, handing them a fifth defeat in six games and leaving Jurgen Klopp’s champions in seventh.

Liverpool vs Fulham Latest Odds

Although they have lost five home league games in a row for the first time in club history, Liverpool are just 4/11 (1.36) favourites at bet365 to arrest that run with victory over the Cottagers.

Fulham are making a push for survival with two wins in their last five but are out at 8/1 (9.0) to heap further misery on their opponents.

No team has drawn more games than the 11 that Scott Parker’s men have tallied this season and another stalemate is available at 17/4 (5.25).

Liverpool vs Fulham Team News

Liverpool’s defensive injury crisis worsened on Thursday as Ozan Kabak picked up a knock that will keep him out of this one, alongside Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez, Joel Matip and Jordan Henderson.

Parker will be without Tom Cairney and Marek Rodak for the trip to Anfield.

Liverpool vs Fulham Preview

Ordinarily, a home match against a side in the relegation zone would be the perfect chance for the champions to break any slump, but this is no normal run for Liverpool.

The Reds have scored just six goals in their last 12 games, none of which have come in the first half, and their most recent six fixtures at home have yielded precisely one strike – a penalty in the 4-1 defeat to Manchester City.

Thursday’s display against Chelsea was yet another toothless outing to add to an ever-growing collection as Liverpool offered very little going forward, taking until the 85th minute to even record a shot on target.

Even with the return of Diogo Jota, who looked lively on his comeback after nearly three months out, there is little reason to believe this Liverpool side will do much damage to a Fulham team that has kept five clean sheets in their last nine games and conceded only six goals in that time.

Liverpool vs Fulham Tips and Predictions

Under 2.5 goals is priced at 6/5 (2.20) with bet365 and is definitely worthy of consideration for this Premier League clash, whilst Liverpool to score under 1.5 times is offered at 6/4 (2.50) for another odds-against selection.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Seven of the last eight Madrid derbies in La Liga have seen two goals or fewer and our tipster is backing Sunday's encounter to be another tight clash

Real Madrid travel to the Estadio Wanda Metropolitano on Sunday afternoon to face La Liga leaders Atletico Madrid in the second Madrid derby of the season.

Zinedine Zidane’s men are five points behind their cross-city rivals having played a game more, and know that defeat will almost certainly spell the end of their hopes of retaining the La Liga title.

Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid Latest Odds

Los Blancos triumphed 2-0 when they hosted Diego Simeone’s side back in December and another victory for the reigning Spanish champions is priced at 81/50 (2.62) with bet365.

Atletico have not won a league derby for five years, a run spanning nine matches, and are priced at 17/10 (2.70) to end that barren spell while the draw is available at 23/10 (3.30).

Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid Team News

Los Rojiblancos have Kieran Trippier available for selection after his lengthy suspension, although the Englishman may not be fit enough to start after nearly two months out. Yannick Carrasco could also return for Atletico although Jose Maria Gimenez is still injured.

The visitors should welcome back top-scorer Karim Benzema but Sergio Ramos, Dani Carvajal and Eden Hazard remain sidelined.

Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid Preview

Madrid derbies tend to be cagey, low-scoring affairs – with five of the lasts six in all competitions seeing two or fewer goals – and the context of Sunday’s encounter makes another tight even more probable.

Both sides will want to avoid defeat at all costs, with Atletico knowing a loss would put their rivals back in the title race and Real Madrid aware that defeat would all but end their chances.

Neither side has been at their best in the final third in recent weeks and while the return of Benzema will boost Madrid, they remain hugely reliant on the Frenchman for goals.

Atletico have also seen their goals dry up, with top-scorer Luis Suarez having failed to net in the side’s last five matches.

Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid Tips and Predictions

Under 2.5 goals and both teams to score ‘no’ is priced at 11/10 (2.10) and looks like a shrewd way to back another tight derby.

A goalless first half could also be an attractive selection, which is offered at 81/50 (2.62).

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With Solskjaer usually keeping things tight in big games and the Citizens looking impregnable at the back, Al Hain-Cole can't see too many goals

Manchester United will be determined to put an end to Manchester City’s winning streak when they travel to the Etihad Stadium for Sunday’s Premier League clash.

Pep Guardiola’s men have won 21 successive matches in all competitions, although have only beaten their local rivals once in the last four encounters.

Manchester City vs Manchester United Latest Odds

Nevertheless, they are clear 8/15 (1.53) favourites with bet365 to extend the lead over their second-placed neighbours to 17 points by coming out on top here.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men have only won two of their last eight fixtures in the league although can be backed at 5/1 (6.00) to pull off a fourth victory in five visits to this ground.

The guests have drawn each of their last four successive league games on the road, and you can get odds of 10/3 (4.33) on them playing out yet another stalemate in this one.

Manchester City vs Manchester United Team News

Nathan Ake is the only injury concern for the home side, who are likely to bring the likes of John Stones, Ilkay Gundogan and Phil Foden back into the team after they were on the bench for Tuesday’s 4-1 win over Wolves.

Dean Henderson is set to start once again as David de Gea is absent due to personal reasons, while Phil Jones, Paul Pogba and Juan Mata are injured and Donny van de Beek and Anthony Martial both doubtful.

Manchester City vs Manchester United Preview

The reverse encounter between this pair was hardly befitting of a local derby, with very little excitement on display in an uneventful 0-0 draw.

Unfortunately, we could be in for more of the same given Solskjaer’s conservative approach in these occasions, with the Norwegian manager overseeing five 0-0 draws and a 1-0 defeat in their last five games against the so-called ‘Big Six.’

In fact, his side has only scored four goals in the last seven league matches on the road, while conceding an impressively meagre two at the other end.

Manchester City vs Manchester United Tips and Predictions

Considering City have only let in nine goals in 28 fixtures in all competitions, odds of 19/20 (1.95) seem generous on at least one of the teams failing to score for the fifth match in a row between them and United.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With Solskjaer's men struggling for cutting edge, Al Hain-Cole is backing the Citizens' in-form midfielder to provide some inspiration in the derby

It is hard to see too much goalmouth action taking place when Manchester City welcome Manchester United to the Etihad Stadium for Sunday’s Premier League clash.

The sides shared a goalless stalemate in December’s reverse encounter, one of five 0-0 draws that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men have played out in their last six matches against the ‘Big Six.’

With just three goals to their name in their last six league matches on the road, the Red Devils certainly don’t inspire much confidence against a home defence that has conceded just six times in 19 league games.

Indeed, Marcus Rashford has scored just twice in his last 12 matches in the league and is priced at a lengthy 9/1 (10.00) with bet365 to open the scoring, or 11/4 (3.75) anytime.

Having struck six times in his last nine matches in all competitions, Bruno Fernandes looks a more tempting proposition at those same 11/4 (3.75) anytime odds.

However, Edinson Cavani is unlikely to attract too much attention at that 11/4 (3.75) price considering he has got on target just three times in 13 league games.

Any breakthrough therefore seems much more likely to occur at the other end of the pitch, where the Citizens have successfully found the net in 29 consecutive home league matches – scoring 16 in their most recent six.

Finally back fit after a series of injuries, Sergio Aguero is the 7/2 (4.50) favourite to break the deadlock with his first league goal of the campaign and on offer at 20/21 (1.95) to score anytime.

However, with Pep Guardiola managing his fitness after such a lengthy lay-off, Gabriel Jesus looks a more promising 5/4 (2.25) anytime bet after getting on the scoresheet seven times in his last 12 appearances.

Nevertheless, Ilkay Gundogan remains the value 5/4 (2.25) bet on current form, having hit the back of the net 11 times in his last 15 Premier League matches.

All odds correct at time of writing. Please gamble responsibly.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>This fixture has a history of producing very few goals and we think Sunday's encounter at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium will be another cagey match

Tottenham face their second London derby in the space of three days as Jose Mourinho’s men host Crystal Palace in the Premier League on Sunday evening.

Spurs edged past Fulham 1-0 on Thursday and will be looking for their fourth consecutive win in all competitions when they face Roy Hodgson’s team.

Tottenham Hotspur vs Crystal Palace Latest Odds

The Eagles have won more matches on the road than at Selhurst Park this season and bet365 price them at 6/1 (7.00) to record their sixth away win.

Only Manchester City, West Ham and Liverpool have won more Premier League home games than Spurs and the hosts are priced at 9/20 (1.45), with the draw on offer at 7/2 (4.50).

Tottenham Hotspur vs Crystal Palace Team News

The north Londoners remain without Giovani Lo Celso, who is still a couple of weeks away from returning from a thigh problem, but otherwise Mourinho has a fully fit squad from which to choose.

Palace, however, have a host of players out. Up to nine first-team squad members could be unavailable, including James McArthur, Nathaniel Clyne, Mamadou Sakho and James McCarthy, while Wilfried Zaha is a major doubt.

Tottenham Hotspur vs Crystal Palace Preview

The previous meeting between these two sides ended 1-1 back in December and this fixture has tended to produce tight, low-scoring encounters over the last few years.

Indeed, 14 of the last 17 competitive games between these two London rivals have seen under 2.5 goals and backing a repeat this weekend should appeal.

Palace come into the game having recorded back-to-back goalless draws, the most recent of which saw them restrict Manchester United to just a solitary shot on target on Wednesday.

Spurs, for their part, have kept three consecutive clean sheets in all competitions and will be confident of keeping things solid once more this weekend against an Eagles side with only two goals in their last five Premier League outings.

Tottenham Hotspur vs Crystal Palace Tips and Predictions

Under 2.5 goals is priced at evens (2.00) and the regularity with which it wins in this fixture makes it a highly tempting option on Sunday.

Both teams to score ‘no’ is priced at 4/5 (1.80) while combining both selections sees the odds rise to 6/4 (2.50).
