Nottingham Forest vs. Arsenal
Mikel Arteta's team has faced difficulties on the road this season, having gone up against strong sides like Manchester United and Liverpool. But their home form has been impressive, highlighted by a commanding 5-0 win against Leeds.
Arsenal has only been held scoreless at the Emirates twice since the start of the 2024/25 season, and they are expected to continue their strong attacking form against a Nottingham Forest defense that has yet to secure a clean sheet this campaign.
The Gunners have dominated recent encounters with Nottingham Forest, winning the past six meetings at the Emirates Stadium by an aggregate score of 19-2.
Pick: Arsenal Win And Over 2 Goals +100
Aston Villa vs. Everton
Everton has hit the ground running this season, collecting six points from their first three matches, revitalized by the arrival of Jack Grealish.
In contrast, Aston Villa has faced difficulties, hampered by a lack of significant new additions to its squad. Unai Emery's team remains goalless so far this campaign.
Last season, Everton proved unprofitable for bettors in the Over 2.5 Goals market. However, with a new creative spark, this trend might change this season. Meanwhile, Villa is desperate for a win, making the prospect of both teams scoring an intriguing bet.
Pick: Both Teams To Score – Yes -125
West Ham United vs. Tottenham
It was a lucky escape for Tottenham against Bournemouth the last time, as the top-of-the-league chasing Spurs were shocked by Andoni Iraola's side. Tottenham will look to regain confidence in this matchup, with new signings Xavi Simons and Randal Kolo Muani set to make their debuts in white.
West Ham's home record is nothing to envy, having failed to win in their last six Premier League games at home, with three losses and three ties.
Still, Graham Potter's team has shown it can hurt any opposition, and Thomas Frank's Tottenham aren't a defensive masterclass yet, so the London Stadium crowd will at least get served a few goals to look at.
Pick: Over 2.5 Goals -135
Brentford vs. Chelsea
Chelsea travels west on Saturday evening, hoping to temporarily leapfrog Liverpool at the top of the Premier League table. It will go up against a Brentford that has shown positive signs despite losing many pieces during the summer.
The Blues have mainly met expectations as an attacking side, with noteworthy contributions from João Pedro, Estevao, and Pedro Neto. Additionally, with Cole Palmer set to return from injury, the team looks poised for even greater achievements.
Given Brentford’s issues with scoring goals, this trend seems likely to continue. Therefore, a straightforward wager on Chelsea to take all three points seems a more sensible option.
