22/1/17 EPL Matches

Form:
Southampton: WLWDLL
Leicester: LWDWLD

H2H:

Southampton won only 1 and drew 1 out of the last 6 meetings. However on home soil, they managed to win 4, draw 1 and lose 1. Southampton have not won Leicester in their last 4 encounters.

Goals Scored/Conceded(last 6 games):

Southampton: 5/ 8

Leicester: 5/ 8

Prediction:
Southampton are currently on a 4 game losing streak in the premier league. They have scored and concede and average of 1 goal / home game. Southampton have scored 1 goal in their last 7 home games.

Leicester, current Epl champions are sitting at 15^th in the table. They have yet to win an away game in 10 games, conceding an average of 2.1 goals/away game. Leicester had been horrible away this season winning only twice on the road.

I see some value in backing the current champions. Leicester not to lose on this one.

Leicester Win/Draw

Form:
Arsenal: WWDWWL
Burnley: WWDLWW

H2H:

Arsenal won the last 5 meetings drawing once. Back at home, Arsenal has won all games against Burnley scoring at least 2 goals in each game

Goals Scored/Conceded(last 6 games):

Arsenal: 13/ 6

Burnley: 9/ 3

Prediction:
Arsenal are sitting 4^th in the table and dropping points against Burnley will be disastrous. They have the 2^nd best offense in the league scoring 48 goals in 21 games conceding 22. They have won their last 4 home games and scoring an average of 2 goals and conceding 1/home game.

Burnley are the worst travellers in the league managing only 1 point in 9 awayt games. Scoring just 3 and conceding 20. However, they seemed to be running good recently, clocking in 4 wins,1 draw in their last 6 games, losing 2-1 to man city. They also managed 3 clean sheets in their last 3 games.

Arsenal are solid at home and Burnley are lousy travellers. This look like a straightforward Arsenal win here.

Arsenal -1.5 at Sgpools gives no value at all, and it is risky taking Burnley +1.5. With 3 clean sheets in their last 3 games, I’m banking on Burnley to keep it tight at the back and attacking on the break, keeping the game low scoring.

Tg Under 3.5 

Form:
Chelsea: WWLWWW
Hull: WLWLDL

H2H:

Chelsea won 5/6 games against Hull. Scoring at least 2 goals in the last 5 games.

Goals Scored/Conceded(last 6 games):

Chelsea: 15/ 5

Hull: 8/ 11

Prediction:
Current league leaders, Chelsea, are 7 points away from 2^nd place tottenham. Chelsea have the best attack at home, averaging 2.8 goals/ home game and conceding just 6.

Hull are sitting at 18^th position, 1 point from bottom. They concede an average of 2.4 goals/ away game, scoring just 6.in 10 games. Hull scored only 1 goal in their last 7 league games.

Chelsea had a 10 game winning streak before being beaten by Tottenham 2-0. and are back to their winning ways, winning 2 on the trot. They also have scored in every home game this season, scoring 1 goal twice, while banging in the goals in others, frequently 3 to 4 goals. Having mentioned the stats, it is likely that Chelsea will thrash Hull in this game. Not a fan of giving -2.5 balls, but at the odds of 2.30 and over 3.5 at odds 2.25. I would not count on Hull city to score, so Chelsea -2.5 is the better choice

Chelsea -2.5
