Okay, so the last few weeks haven’t exactly gone according to plan.
In our defense, did you honestly think Spurs would lose to Newcastle and Liverpool would draw with West Brom?
If you answered yes, you’re either a liar or a psychic.
We’re not quitters here at JOE HQ, so in the infamous words of Stevie G – ‘We go again.’
Without further ado, here’s this week’s selections.
Everton v Leicester, Draw 13/5
It’s almost Christmas and Leicester are top of the league. It seems strange to us too, but they’re there on merit and you’ve got to respect that. We think a draw would be a good result for both teams and we can see Vardy and co. sneak a point.
Southampton v Tottenham, Tottenham 7/4
Neither side were at their best last week, but we’re backing Spurs’ blip to be just that, a blip! We reckon the London side will get back to winning ways against a Saints’ team struggling for fluency.
Newcastle v Aston Villa, Draw 5/2
The Magpies have had an excellent fortnight, but the side from the North East aren’t exactly famous for their consistency. We think a draw is the most likely outcome.
West Brom v Bournemouth, West Brom 6/4
The Baggies are a solid team, as they demonstrated against Liverpool last week. Home advantage and the confidence from that game should help them overcome The Cherries.
A €10 bet here could return €866.25. That wouldn’t be too bad just before Christmas, now would it?
