Premier League Predictions: 3 Betting tips for this weekend (Matchday 36)

Ace Football presents detailed betting tips on the upcoming Premier League games of the weekend.

As we prepare for another weekend of Premier League football, our experts take a look at the bookmakers’ predictions for the upcoming matches.

Let’s check out three betting tips for Matchday 36 of the Premier League.

Don’t expect goals when Brentford host Southampton

Manchester United brought Brentford’s impressive run of four unbeaten games to an end earlier this week. The Bees suffered a 3-0 defeat at Old Trafford, conceding more than twice for the first time since January 19, when they last met the Red Devils.

This weekend, they will host Southampton, who lost 2-1 against Crystal Palace on Saturday. Wilfried Zaha’s last-minute goal undermined Southampton’s great defensive work throughout the game.

We expect both Brentford and Southampton to display improved defensive performances this weekend. Based on what we have seen from the Bees lately, they won’t push too hard to increase their lead if they manage to open the scoring. On the other hand, Southampton’s attacking stats don’t convince us that they will find many goalscoring chances against the Bees.

Goals likely on both ends when Liverpool meet Spurs

Liverpool will face Spurs in one of the most anticipated games of the matchday. The Reds are continuing their relentless pursuit of Manchester City on top of the league table, looking for another crucial victory against the Spurs.

On the other hand, Tottenham are competing with Arsenal in the top-four race. Antonio Conte’s side are two points begin the fourth-placed Gunners, against whom they will play next week.

We expect both sides to push for a win on Saturday. The Spurs’ forward duo of Harry Kane and Son Heung-Min scored three goals against Leicester City last week, and we expect them to score at least once at Anfield. On the other hand, Tottenham’s backline seems too unstable to repel all of the Reds’ attacks.

Don’t expect goals when Burnley lock horns with Villa

Burnley have shown a completely different form since they sacked Sean Dyche on April 15. The Clarets have jumped out of the relegation zone, winning all of their last three games.

On Saturday, they will host Aston Villa, who claimed their first win in six games against Norwich last week. Prior to that game, Steven Gerrard’s side had scored only once in their previous four matches.

We expect Burnley to show another solid defensive performance against Villa this weekend. However, the hosts’ attacking stats convince us that they won’t find many chances to score either.
