Pick: Both Teams to Score
Tottenham vs Manchester United: Mohammed Kudus (TOT) Same Game Parlay/Bet Builder
Mohammed Kudus (TOT) 1+ Fouls Committed, Tackles, and Shots
Odds:
- American: -120
- Fractional: 1.83
- Fractional: 83/100
Kudus missed Tottenham’s UEFA Champions League match against Copenhagen in midweek after picking up a minor injury in training on Monday. It is unclear whether or not Kudus will be available for Saturday’s match against Manchester United and this line will be voided if he is not fit enough to start the match against United.
Kudus has been Tottenham’s best attacker throughout the season which sees him have a lot of involvement in each match. Kudus so far this season has averaged 1.65 fouls committed per 90 minutes, 1.24 tackles won per 90 minutes, and 1.75 shots per 90 minutes in the Premier League. In his five most recent Premier League matches, Kudus has averaged 1.80 fouls committed per 90 (1+ in 5/5), 1.80 tackles won per 90 minutes (1+ in 4/5), 1.80 shots per 90 minutes (1+ in 4/5)
I am backing Kudus to have his fingerprints all over this match. That of course depends on his injury status come Saturday and whether or not the Tottenham attacker will be able to start the match.
Pick: Mohammed Kudus (TOT) 1+ Fouls Committed, Tackles, and Shots

Arsenal & Chelsea – Both Teams to Win Double
Arsenal Win vs Sunderland & Chelsea Win vs Wolves
Odds:
- American: -110
- Decimal: 1.90
- Fractional: 9/10
Arsenal (vs Sunderland): Arsenal have been exceptional this season, currently on a 10-match winning streak and unbeaten in their last 13 matches (last defeat against Liverpool on August 31). They have kept eight consecutive clean sheets. Despite Sunderland having home advantage and Arsenal coping with injuries, I see the Gunners securing a win as Granit Xhaka faces his former club.
Chelsea (vs Wolves): Chelsea are coming off of a less than impressive draw in the UEFA Champions League this week when they drew 2-2 with Qarabag. In that match, Chelsea did field a heavily rotated side. Wolves have struggled this season, scoring only once away from home. I expect Chelsea to claim a comfortable victory at Stamford Bridge.
Pick: Arsenal & Chelsea both to win
Brentford vs Newcastle United: Both Teams to Score
Odds:
- American: -143
- Decimal: 1.70
- Fractional: 7/10
Newcastle have struggled heavily on the road this season. In their most recent away match, Newcastle were stunned by West Ham 3-1. I believe that Brentford will find the back of the net in this match. Newcastle in their own right are a team of top quality and have very good attacking play. Although their away record does not reflect that, I still believe that the Magpies will also find the back of the net in this match.
Pick: Both Teams to Score
Nottingham Forest vs Leeds: Nottingham Forest Win
Odds:
- American: +120
- Decimal: 2.20
- Fractional: 6/5
Nottingham Forest under Sean Dyche are gradually improving, especially defensively, though they still show moments of inconsistency. They drew 0-0 against Sturm Graz in the UEFA Europa League with a rotated squad and 2-2 against Manchester United last week.
Leeds, meanwhile, have struggled on the road, with one win, four losses, and a -9 goal difference. The win probability calculator gives Forest a 51% chance of winning, suggesting value in this line.
I am backing Sean Dyche’s men to get back into the win column when Leeds come to town.
Pick: Nottingham Forest Win
Manchester City vs Liverpool: Manchester City – Team Total over 4.5 Shots on Target (SoT)
For a full extensive and detailed pre-match analysis, check out our article covering the match here.
Odds:
- American: -175
- Decimal: 1.57
- Fractional: 57/100
Manchester City have averaged 7.20 shots on target per match in their last five outings in all competitions, that includes 11 shots on target for the Sky Blues against Dortmund in midweek. Liverpool have allowed an average of 5.20 shots on target per match in their last five away matches in all competitions.
City have been firing on all cylinders and have been putting shots towards the target as often as they can. Although Liverpool are hard to break down defensively, I do think that City’s ability in attack with their player rotations, interplay, and movement will open up gaps. I also think that Haaland will have opportunities through the middle on counter-attacks when City are able to beat Liverpool’s counter-press or when they do go direct quickly.
Pick: Manchester City – Team Total over 4.5 Shots on Target (SoT)
Manchester City vs Liverpool: Same Game Parlay/Bet Builder – High Odds Flyer
- Erling Haaland (MCI) 1+ Shots on Target
- Phil Foden (MCI) 1+ Shots on Target
- Nico O’Reilly (MCI) 1+ Shots
- Dominik Szoboszlai (LIV) 1+ Shots
Odds:
- American: +320
- Decimal: 4.20
- Fractional: 16/5
Erling Haaland (MCI): Haaland has been absolutely sensational for Manchester City so far this season. Haaland has averaged 2.63 shots on target per 90 minutes in the Premier League this season and has averaged 3.4 shots on target in his last five matches in all competitions (1+ SoT in 5/5).
Phil Foden (MCI): Phil Foden appears to be a mainstay in Guariola’s lineup again which as a fan is nice to see. Foden has been in good form recently and could find the target when he finds himself with the ball in a pocket of space just outside the area, or when he makes a good run into a dangerous scoring position. Foden has reached 1+ shots on target in 4/5 most recent appearances against Liverpool.
Nico O’Reilly (MCI): Nico O’Reilly has been getting in more advanced positions this season and in their previous outing against Dortmund took up more central positions in attack as well. O’Reilly has averaged 1.36 shots per 90 minutes in the Premier League this season. In his last five outings for City, O’Reilly has averaged 1.60 shots per match (1+ shots in 4/5).
Dominik Szoboszlai (LIV): Szoboszlai is a tank engine for Liverpool, seemingly never running out of energy. If he plays in Liverpool’s no. 10 role, he will have plenty of opportunities to get further forward in attack. Szoboszlai has averaged 2.00 shots per 90 minutes in the Premier League this season. In his last five appearances for Liverpool in all competitions, Szoboszlai has averaged 2.20 shots per match (1+ shots in 4/5).

Matchday 11 Total Goals Scored: Over 27.5 Goals
Odds:
- American: -110
- Decimal: 1.90
- Fractional: 9/10
This is one of my favourite weekend bets – cheering for attacking play across every match. Many fixtures this weekend, including Tottenham vs Manchester United, Chelsea vs Wolves, Aston Villa vs Bournemouth, Brentford vs Newcastle, Crystal Palace vs Brighton, and Manchester City vs Liverpool, have high goal-scoring potential. With the posted line at 27.5 goals, this bet is worth considering.
Pick: Total Goals Scored on Matchday 11 Across All Matches – Over 27.5
