Ace Football presents detailed betting tips on the upcoming Premier League games of the weekend.
As we prepare for the opening matchday of the Premier League season, our experts take a look at the bookmakers’ predictions for the upcoming matches.
Let’s check out three betting tips for the first matchday of the 2023-24 Premier League campaign.
Goals likely on both sides when Chelsea face Liverpool
The standout game of the opening matchday will see Chelsea hosting Liverpool. After a busy transfer window, the Blues will hope to claim a statement victory under new manager Mauricio Pochettino.
We expect the Blues to find enough chances against Liverpool’s out-of-form backline. However, the Reds’ improved attacking setup, combined with Chelsea’s pre-season displays, convince us that we will see goals on both ends.
Back Newcastle to beat Aston Villa
Newcastle come into the new season on the back of an excellent 2022-23 campaign. Eddie Howe’s men have shown no signs of slowing down during the pre-season, signing the likes of Sandro Tonali and Harvey Barnes.
After a string of fantastic attacking displays in friendly matches, Newcastle have a good chance of putting pressure on Aston Villa’s backline.
On the other hand, Villa’s poor results in away games last season suggest they won’t be able to prevent Newcastle from outscoring them on Saturday.
Don’t expect goals when Sheffield United meet Palace
Crystal Palace finished 11th in the Premier League last season, scoring 40 goals. A number of narrow wins helped Palace secure a top-half finish in the league.
Given their consistent defensive numbers, Palace have a good chance of keeping a clean sheet against Sheffield. On the other hand, their pre-season performances don’t convince us that they will risk too much to score more than one goal in the upcoming match.
