The relegation battle takes centre stage on the final day of the Premier League season as we wait to see if Tottenham Hotspur or West Ham United end up taking the drop.

The equation is simple for Spurs – avoid defeat at home to Everton and they will stay up, barring a 12-0 win for the Hammers at home to Leeds.

But it's sure to be tension-packed day and Toffees boss Davie Moyes will be looking to do his old club a favour by beating Tottenham in London.

Tottenham Hotspur vs Everton top betting tips

Even though a draw looks certain to keep Tottenham up, I'd imagine Roberto De Zerbi will send his side out to win as they bid to ease the tension.

The bookies think so as well and the best price for a Spurs win is just 19/20 at AK Bets. You can boost those odds to 6/5 at Bet365 by adding on over 1.5 goals.

Everton have nothing to play for but still have plenty of firepower in the likes of Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Iliman Ndiaye and Beto. Midfielder Dewsbury-Hall likes a crack at goal so could offer some value at 31/20 with BetMGM for a shot on target.

West Ham United vs Leeds United

All West Ham can do today is beat Leeds United at home and hope Everton do them a favour across London at the same time.

Leeds have nothing to play for but they're in excellent form, going eight games unbeaten in the Premier League.

Despite that, the Hammers are odds-on favourites today and their best price is just 5/6 at AK Bets.

That doesn't offer much value so it's probably better going for player bets. Jarrod Bowen will be desperate to keep the Hammers up and he's 15/8 at William Hill for a goal.

Backing the West Ham skipper for over 1.5 efforts on target also appeals at 31/20 with BetMGM.

Manchester City vs Aston Villa

It's the end of an era at the Etihad this afternoon as Pep Guardiola says goodbye after a hugely successful decade in charge of Manchester City.

His players will want to send the Catalan off in style, despite their title bid ending with a draw at Bournemouth.

City are up against an Aston Villa side who could still be nursing a few hangovers after their thrilling Europa League Final win over Freiburg on Wednesday night.

So it's no surprise to see Guardiola's side as huge favourites at just 3/10, with Aston Villa as big as 19/2 with Unibet.

It's hard finding value with City such a short price but adding on over 3.5 goals boosts the odds to 11/10 at Ladbrokes.

Player bets are tricky for this one as it's hard to tell if either manager will ring the changes for a dead rubber. If City kid Nico O'Reilly starts, he could offer some value at 37/20 with BetMGM for a goal or assist.

Tottenham Hotspur vs Everton at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday afternoon in a fixture that, while still significant for the home side, may not carry quite the unbearable weight the headlines suggest.

Roberto De Zerbi's Spurs know a draw is enough to guarantee their Premier League survival, with a goal difference 12 better than West Ham meaning only a defeat puts them in genuine danger.

David Moyes brings his Everton side to north London with nothing at stake, his side comfortably mid-table and playing out the final day with complete freedom. That context shapes De Zerbi's approach entirely, with a conservative, organised defensive performance the most logical tactical choice rather than an all-out pursuit of victory.

Spurs have produced one of the most difficult home records to analyse in recent Premier League history. Their W2-D6-L10 home record reflects a side that has consistently failed to win at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium while picking up points through draws rather than victories.

Their home xPTS of 4.87 across the last four home games reflects a side consistently failing to convert underlying performance into results, while their home xG battle won rate of just 38.9% is the lowest of any home side in the division.

The six home draws across the season actually support the draw-is-enough framing, suggesting this is a side more naturally inclined toward sharing points at home than winning them. Their home both teams to score rate of 72% is the second highest of any ground in the division however, reflecting how regularly opposing sides find the net at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium regardless of the defensive intent of the home side.

Everton arrive having endured their own inconsistent campaign. Their away record has been more encouraging however, with Everton scoring in each of their last four away games and producing a 100% both teams to score rate across that period.

How the bookies view it

Tottenham are priced at 19/20, implying a 51% probability of victory. Everton are available at 16/5, implying a 24% probability, while the draw sits at 57/20, implying 26%.

Both teams to score is available at 7/10, implying a 59% probability whilst over 2.5 goals is set at 4/5 which is an implied probability of 56%.

Head to head: goals the defining theme

Tottenham lead the head to head record across the last 20 meetings with 10 wins to Everton's two, but the goals trend is what matters most here. The average of 3.50 goals per game across those 20 meetings is among the highest of any fixture in this dataset and reflects a fixture that has consistently produced open, high-scoring affairs regardless of the broader context.

Both teams to score has landed in 13 of the last 20 meetings while the fixture has averaged 2.40 goals from the home side and 1.10 from the away side across that sample.

Recent meetings reinforce the trend. The last five head to head games have produced 3, 5, 4, 3 and 4 goals respectively. The only meeting this season, Everton's 3-0 win at the Hill Dickinson Stadium in October, produced three goals and further highlights that neither side tends to keep things tight when these two meet.

Everton have scored in four of the last five head to head meetings and Spurs have kept just two clean sheets in 18 home games all season, a record that persists regardless of tactical setup.

Player to watch: Kolo Muani to reach 2+ fouls

Randal Kolo Muani heads into Sunday as the most compelling figure in the individual player markets. The French forward has committed 41 fouls across 29 appearances this season, averaging 1.41 per game, with his count escalating significantly in high-pressure situations.

His season high of six fouls came against Arsenal in February, while four against Manchester City and four at Fulham highlight how his count rises when the game demands intensity. There is also a direct head to head precedent, committing two fouls in 61 minutes in the reverse fixture at the Hill Dickinson Stadium in October.

With De Zerbi likely setting Spurs up conservatively, Kolo Muani will be asked to press and harass rather than attack, a role that naturally drives his foul count upward against the physical Tarkowski and Keane. Michael Oliver's division-leading 22.6 fouls per game average ensures every mis-timed challenge gets called.

Predicted lineups

Tottenham 4-2-3-1: Kinsky, Porro, Danso, Van de Ven, Udogie, Bentancur, Palhinha, Kolo Muani, Gallagher, Tel, Richarlison.

Everton 4-2-3-1: Pickford, O'Brien, Tarkowski, Keane, Mykolenko, Iroegbunam, Garner, Röhl, Dewsbury-Hall, Ndiaye, Beto.

Anything else catch the eye?

Spurs over 1.5 cards is supported by one of the strongest disciplinary profiles in the division. Tottenham have received two or more cards in 16 of their 18 home league games this season, an 89% strike rate, while averaging 2.81 cards per match at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Referee Michael Oliver has also shown cards involving Tottenham in three of his four meaningful appointments this season, while a midfield pairing of Joao Palhinha and Rodrigo Bentancur adds further support.

A more cautious approach from Roberto De Zerbi does not reduce the booking risk. It simply shifts the fouls from high pressing situations into tactical and defensive challenges, and both have produced cards consistently under Michael Oliver this season.

Everton to score is backed by both the season numbers and the head-to-head record. Tottenham have conceded in 15 of their 18 home league games and their defensive issues have remained throughout the campaign regardless of approach.

Everton have scored in four of the last five meetings between these sides, while the fixture itself has averaged 3.50 goals per game across the last 20 encounters.

Tottenham Hotspur vs Everton Betting Tips & Predictions

Further Reading

Tottenham Hotspur have the chance to secure Premier League safety tonight, with just a point needed at Stamford Bridge as they battle London rivals Chelsea.

West Ham's defeat at Newcastle on Sunday has left Spurs sitting two points clear of the drop zone. They also have a far superior goal difference to the Hammers so a draw tonight would be enough to ease their fears ahead of Sunday's final round of games.

But Chelsea will be desperate to leave Roberto De Zerbi's side sweating and will be out to bounce back from the blow of Saturday's FA Cup Final defeat.

Chelsea vs Tottenham Hotspur

These match brings back memories of Tottenham's trip to Stamford Bridge a decade ago, when a 2-2 draw ended Spurs' title hopes and sealed glory for Leicester.

Twelve yellow cards were flashed that night and this London derby could be just as fractious with so much at stake.

So I'm going for foul and card bets in what has the potential to be a busy night for the officials. Conor Gallagher is going up against his old club and the Tottenham midfielder is 7/4 at SkyBet to go into the book.

Enzo Fernandez should also be at the heart of the midfield battle and he's a tempting 9/4 at Coral for over 1.5 fouls, a bet that landed inside the first half at Wembley on Saturday.

Doubling up that bet with over 1.5 fouls for Gallagher takes you to 53/10 with the same firm.

AFC Bournemouth vs Manchester City

There's a big game at the other end of the Premier League table tonight as well as Manchester City take on AFC Bournemouth.

City need a win to take their title fight with Arsenal down to the final day while a victory would secure sixth place for the Cherries and potential Champions League place.

Andoni Iraola always sets up his team to attack so this should be a thriller and combining BTTS with over 2.5 goals only pays 3/4 with Coral. There's more value in over 1.5 first-half goals, which is 11/10 at Paddy Power.

Bournemouth could get lots of chances on the counter attack and I like the 11/10 on offer at Bet365 for City keeper Gigi Donnarumma to make over 2.5 saves.

Genk vs Antwerp

The Belgian season is coming to a climax and Genk will be looking to take a big step towards a place in Europe when they host Antwerp tonight.

The league splits in three for the climax of the campaign and the team topping the middle section will face off with the side finishing fifth in the top section for a crack at Europe.

Genk sit top of the middle league with just two games to go, but only on goal difference, so they still have some work today.

Antwerp have nothing to play for so it's easy to see why the home win pays just 3/5 tonight. Genk beat Westerlo 3-0 in their last home game so I'm backing them to be winning at half-time and full-time, which pays 7/5 at BetMGM.

The home side should have most of the pressure so Genk -1 in the corner handicap also appeals at 19/20 with William Hill.

View our experts' Goals Accumulator Tips & Predictions for Sunday, 4 May, which includes Both Teams to Score and total goals selections.

Man Utd vs Liverpool: Over 2.5 goals

A few weeks ago, this looked like a fixture that could have been a big one in terms of Champions League qualification. However, both teams, alongside Aston Villa, have pulled away from the chasing pack behind and are now all-but certain to be dining at European football's top table next season.

What that leaves us with is a grudge match between two bitter rivals. While that always means the stakes are high, the lack of added pressure in terms of league objectives should free both teams up.

This is a fixture that, up until recently, had so often disappointed. However, a total of 21 goals have been scored across their last five meetings and over 2.5 goals has been covered in each one.

In terms of their individual form in recent months, six of Man Utd's last seven matches and five of Liverpool's last eight have produced more than two goals.

Aston Villa vs Tottenham: Both Teams to Score

Despite the fact that there are 13 places and 24 points between both of these teams in the Premier League table, Tottenham may be looking at this fixture as an opportunity to steal some much-needed points.

The hosts have all-but secured a top-five finish in the Premier League, so all their focus now is on their current Europa League campaign. This match is sandwiched between both legs of their semi-final with Nottingham Forest, which could see Unai Emery rest some big names on Sunday afternoon.

Historically, this has always been a fixture that guarantees goals, too. Four of the last five meetings between Villa and Spurs have seen goals go in at both ends, including an FA Cup tie at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium earlier this season.

What's more, both teams have scored in eight of Tottenham's last 11 matches in all competitions.

Bournemouth vs Crystal Palace: Total home goals over 1.5

Our final goals tip today relates to the match between Bournemouth and Crystal Palace at the Vitality Stadium.

The key context to consider for this match is the fact that Crystal Palace, like Aston Villa, are currently in the midst of a European semi-final.

While the Eagles have a lead ahead of the second leg on Thursday, Oliver Glasner has no reason to take any risks with his side playing for nothing domestically.

That should free up Bournemouth to take control of this match, which they so often do at the Vitality Stadium anyway.

The Cherries have scored two or more goals in each of their last four matches, and two of those were against two of the top three in Arsenal and Manchester United.

Goals Accumulator Tips

Sunday night brings a key Premier League contest as Aston Villa host Tottenham at Villa Park, with both sides entering the final stretch under very different circumstances.

Villa arrive after Thursday night Europa League semi final action, while Spurs have had a full week to prepare, yet the broader form lines still favour the home side.

Villa have built their success on an outstanding home record. Across the last two seasons they have lost only five league matches at Villa Park, turning the ground into one of the toughest venues in the division.

This season their home underlying numbers remain strong, posting 1.30 xG and 1.20 xGA, while winning the xG battle in 12 of 17 home fixtures.

Recent data is even stronger. Villa rank second across the last four games for xPTS with 7.95, alongside 1.81 xG and only 0.83 xGA per match. They have also produced seven big chances while allowing none in that spell, showing control at both ends.

Tottenham continue to drift through a chaotic campaign. They are already on their third manager of the season and results have remained poor. Spurs have won only once in their last 16 Premier League matches, and even that came against relegated Wolves in a game where they created little, edging the xG battle only 0.92 to 0.70.

Away from home, Tottenham average 1.22 xG and 1.43 xGA, while their last eight league matches return only 8.92 xPTS. They have also allowed 7.8 shots inside the box per game in that run.

Fresh legs help Spurs, but Villa own the stronger structure, stronger form and far stronger home profile heading into Sunday’s clash.

How the bookies view it: Hosts favourites

Aston Villa are priced at 5/4 in the match winner market, which equates to a 44.44% implied probability of a home victory. Tottenham are available at 9/4, representing a 30.77% implied probability of an away win. The draw is priced at 27/10, which implies a 27.03% probability.

The market gives Villa the edge, reflecting their strong long-term home record and Tottenham’s poor recent Premier League run.

The goals market expects a lively contest. Over 2.5 goals is priced at 8/11, which converts to a 57.89% implied probability of at least three goals.

Both teams to score is priced at 8/13, representing a 61.90% implied probability of goals at both ends.

Head to Head: Villa hold the recent record

Aston Villa have enjoyed the recent edge in this fixture, winning five of the last eight meetings in all competitions.

Villa have already beaten Tottenham twice this season, winning 2-1 away in the Premier League and 2-1 away again in the FA Cup. They also won the last meeting at Villa Park 2-0 in May 2025.

Across the last six head to heads, Villa have five wins and one defeat, showing a clear swing in control after Tottenham dominated earlier meetings.

Recent matches have also produced goals. Seven of the last 10 meetings have seen over 2.5 goals, while both teams to score has landed in five of the last eight.

At Villa Park specifically, Aston Villa have won three of the last five against Spurs, including each of the last two home meetings.

Players to watch: Danso to struggle again

Kevin Danso to commit 2+ fouls looks a strong bet, with the matchup against Ollie Watkins adding clear support. Watkins has been fouled 30 times in 30 starts this season, an average of 1.0 per start, showing how often defenders are dragged into contact by his pace and movement.

Danso’s recent numbers are encouraging. Across his last five starts he has committed three, three, zero, two and two fouls, meaning this line has landed in four of those five matches. That is an 80% hit rate, while he averages 2.0 fouls per start over that run.

Watkins constantly pulls centre backs into wide channels and attacks space behind, forcing recovery challenges. If Tottenham lose control in midfield, Danso should face repeated one v one situations.

With strong recent foul data and a forward who regularly draws contact, Danso 2+ fouls looks well priced.

Predicted line-ups

Aston Villa 4-2-3-1: Martinez, Cash, Konsa, Torres, Digne, Bogarde, Tielemans, McGinn, Rogers, Buendia, Watkins.

Tottenham Hotspur 4-2-3-1: Kinsky, Porro, Danso, Van de Ven, Spence, Bissouma, Bentancur, Maddison, Gallagher, Kolo Muani, Richarlison.

Anything else catch the eye?

Aston Villa to win looks a strong play based on home consistency, recent process numbers and Tottenham’s long-running decline.

Villa Park has become a major edge. Villa have lost only five home league games across the last two seasons, and this year they continue to post strong numbers on their own ground. They average 1.30 xG and 1.20 xGA at home, while winning the xG battle in 12 of 17 matches there.

The recent sample is stronger still. Across the last four games Villa rank second in the league for xPTS with 7.95. They are producing 1.81 xG and conceding only 0.83 xGA. They have created seven big chances in that spell and allowed none, a sign of a side controlling matches at both ends.

Tottenham’s record is hard to trust. Spurs have won only one of their last 16 Premier League games, and that lone victory came against relegated Wolves. They have injuries throughout their squad and it appears that the players as well as the fans are not up for the battle to retain their Premier League status. Across the last four they have averaged only 0.5 xG from open play showing a clear lack of attacking talent.

Their wider away profile is also average. Spurs post 1.22 xG and 1.43 xGA on the road, ranking only 16th by away xG ratio. Over the last eight games they have returned only 8.92 xPTS which puts them 17th, while allowing 7.8 shots inside the box per match with only five teams conceding more in that period.

Villa did play in Europe on Thursday, but their home standards have been elite for two seasons. With stronger numbers, a settled environment and Tottenham struggling badly, the hosts look the right side.

Aston Villa vs Tottenham Hotspur Betting Tips & Predictions

Further Reading

Spurs will look to give their survival hopes a real boost on Saturday afternoon as they travel to Molineux to take on rock-bottom Wolves.

Roberto De Zerbi was denied his first win as Spurs boss last weekend as his new side conceded deep into stoppage time to draw 2-2 at home to the Italian’s former side, Brighton & Hove Albion.

Tottenham are still yet to win in the Premier League this calendar year, and remain two points from safety, but they will view this clash as a must-win against their already-relegated hosts.

Wolves’s relegation was finally confirmed, as they suffered back-to-back away defeats against two of Spurs’s relegation rivals, West Ham United and Leeds United, shipping seven goals across those defeats, and failing to score once.

However, Rob Edwards will take confidence from the fact that his side have taken seven points across their last three Premier League encounters in front of their supporters (W2-D1-L0), including back-to-back wins over Champions League-chasing Liverpool and Aston Villa.

How the bookies view it: Spurs favourites

Despite having yet to win in the Premier League this calendar year, Tottenham come into this clash as favourites, with bet365 pricing an away success at just 8/11.

Wolves are 16/5 underdogs to claim a third consecutive victory at Molineux, whilst the draw is 10/3.

Head to head: Six unbeaten for Wolves

Wolves are unbeaten in each of their previous six Premier League meetings with Spurs (W4-D2-L0), winning each of the last three in front of their supporters.

Players to watch: Simons to strike again?

Xavi Simons put in a ‘Man of the Match’ performance against Brighton last time out, as he was involved in both of their goals in their agonising 2-2 draw with the Seagulls.

The Dutch international has now scored three times and provided six assists since his summer move from RB Leipzig, and is an appealing 11/10 to Score or Assist on Saturday.

Backed a player to find the net? Check our Goalscorer Betting guide to see how the markets work and where to find value.

Predicted line-ups:

Wolves will be missing the injured Jose Sa, Sam Johnstone and Enso Gonzalez and the suspended Yerson Mosquera, whilst Ladislav Krejci, Angel Gomes and Matt Doherty are doubts.

Spurs will be without the injured Guglielmo Vicario, Christian Romero, Destiny Udogie, Dejan Kulusevski, Ben Davies, Wilson Odobert and Mohammed Kudus.

Wolverhampton Wanderers: Bentley, Toti, S. Bueno, Krejci, Tchatchoua, Andre, J. Gomes, H. Bueno, Bellegarde, Mane, Armstrong

Tottenham Hotspur: Kinsky, Porro, Danso, Van de Ven, Spence, Bentancur, Gallagher, Bissouma, Simons, Kolo Muani, Solanke

Anything else catch the eye?

Spurs will view this clash as a must-win, but they have failed to win in the Premier League this calendar year and don’t appeal at 8/11, especially against a Wolves side that has taken seven points from their last three matches at home.

Instead, backing goals seems the sensible play, with Both Teams to Score landing in 11 of Tottenham’s last 14 Premier League outings, whilst 10 of the previous 13 have gone Over 2.5 Goals.

What’s more, Wolves have scored seven goals across their last four at home, with Both Teams to Score & Over 2.5 Goals also landing in three of them.

Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Tottenham Hotspur Betting Tips & Predictions

Saturday's Premier League tips and expert betting predictions

Fulham vs Aston Villa (12:30)

Tipster: GregMacLean

Aston Villa will look to climb up into third position in the Premier League table as they travel to Craven Cottage to take on mid-table Fulham in the lunchtime kick-off on Saturday.

Click here to read our full match preview

Tip 1: Ollie Watkins to Score or Assist

Ollie Watkins is a man in red-hot form at the moment, as he has scored seven goals and provided two assists across his previous eight matches in all competitions, including a brace and an assist against Sunderland last weekend.

The England international has also scored in four of his previous five appearances against Fulham – including in the reverse fixture at Villa Park and on his previous two visits to Craven Cottage – and is an appealing 1/1 at bet365 to Score or Assist on Saturday.

Tip 2: Over 2.5 Goals

Aston Villa come into this clash off the back of edging a seven-goal thriller, and goals look likely as they travel to West London on Saturday.

Goals have been a feature of Fulham’s matches at the Cottage this season, with their opening 16 Premier League clashes averaging 2.88 goals per game, with Over 2.5 Goals landing in 10 (63%) of them, including in six of their past seven and eight of their previous 10.

What’s more, Over 2.5 Goals has landed in eight of the previous 10 meetings between these two sides – including in the last five at Craven Cottage – and a repeat pays 3/4 at William Hill.

Liverpool vs Crystal Palace (15:00)

Tipster: Kevin Mac

Liverpool probably need just a couple more wins to nail down a top-five finish in the Premier League and will be confident of banking three points when Crystal Palace come to Anfield.

Click here to read our full match preview

Tip 1: Liverpool -1 handicap

It's only natural for Crystal Palace to look ahead to such a big European game so I'd imagine Liverpool should win this one quite comfortably.

Backing Slot's side at -1 in the handicap pays a decent 5/4 with 888Sport while Liverpool HT-FT pays 6/5 at William Hill.

Tip 2: Alexander Isak over 1.5 efforts on target

Liverpool star Isak will be desperate to get back among the goals and should have a few cracks at goal. That make backing him for over 1.5 efforts on target another decent option at 29/10 with Ladbrokes.

Tip 3: Under 9.5 corners

None of the three previous meetings this season has hit double figures for corners so it could pay to back under 9.5 flag kicks here at 6/5 with BOYLESports.

Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Tottenham Hotspur (15:00)

Tipster: GregMacLean

Spurs will look to give their survival hopes a real boost on Saturday afternoon as they travel to Molineux to take on rock-bottom Wolves.

Click here to read our full match preview

Tip 1: Both Teams to Score

Backing goals seems the sensible play, with Both Teams to Score landing in 11 of Tottenham’s last 14 Premier League outings.

Tip 2: Over 2.5 Goals

Wolves have scored seven goals across their last four at home, with Both Teams to Score & Over 2.5 Goals also landing in three of them.

Tip 3: Xavi Simons to Score or Assist

Xavi Simons put in a ‘Man of the Match’ performance against Brighton last time out, as he was involved in both of their goals in their agonising 2-2 draw with the Seagulls.

The Dutch international has now scored three times and provided six assists since his summer move from RB Leipzig, and is an appealing 11/10 to Score or Assist on Saturday.

West Ham Utd vs Everton (15:00)

Tipster: TheBettingDesk

West Ham United vs Everton takes place in the Premier League on Saturday at the London Stadium, with both sides positioned in the middle of the table and still looking to finish the season with momentum.

Click here to read our full match preview

Tip 1: West Ham to win

West Ham win is the best bet. Their last four home games show 2.01 xG and just 0.97 xGA, alongside 8.5 shots in the box and only 7.5 conceded. Their xPTS return of 7.64 highlights control that has not fully converted into results. Everton’s away profile is weaker, with 1.14 xG and 1.28 xGA, alongside 6.6 shots in the box and 15.44 shots conceded overall. Across the last eight, Everton sit at 1.33 xG and 1.17 xGA but without strong attacking consistency. The gap in chance quality, shots in the box, and expected points supports the home side controlling the game and creating better opportunities.

Tip 2: Under 2.5 goals

The head-to-head record between West Ham and Everton is tight across the last 20 meetings. West Ham have eight wins, Everton have seven, with five draws.

The goal difference stands at 21-23, averaging 2.20 goals per game, with both sides contributing at a similar level, 1.05 goals for West Ham and 1.15 for Everton.

Recent meetings highlight a low scoring trend. The last four Premier League clashes have finished 1-1, 1-1, 0-0, and 1-3. Three of those four games have seen under 2.5 goals, and two have ended level.

The most recent meeting in September finished 1-1, continuing that pattern of close contests.

Looking slightly further back, there is still little separation. Across the last 10 league meetings, both sides have five wins each, with no dominant run. Scorelines remain tight, with seven of those 10 games producing two goals or fewer.

Clean sheets have also played a role. Both teams have recorded multiple shutouts in this fixture, and neither side has consistently scored more than once per game across the sample.

Arsenal vs Newcastle (17:30)

Tipster: SlipsTips

Arsenal will be desperate to stop the rot when they welcome Newcastle to the Emirates in the Premier League on Saturday evening.

Click here to read our full match preview

Tip 1: Eberechi Eze 1+ Shot on Target

Eberechi Eze is a player who likes to try his luck in front of goal at any given opportunity. The Arsenal ace looks good value to hit the target at least once during this contest at 4/5 on bet365.

Tip 2: Lewis Hall To Be Fouled 2+ Times

Lewis Hall has been fouled twice or more in seven of his last nine Premier League outings, making a repeat here an attractive option at 5/6 on bet365.

Tip 3: Over 3.5 Newcastle Corners

Given their impressive corner returns this season, Newcastle look overpriced to register at least four flag kicks at the Emirates on Saturday evening.

Eddie Howe’s side have averaged a league-high 6.33 corners per game in the Premier League this term.

With that in mind, the visitors hold plenty of appeal to force over 3.5 corners at the Emirates on Saturday evening at 11/10 with bet365.

Tottenham host Atletico Madrid at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Tuesday night in the Champions League round of 16 second leg with the Spanish side holding a commanding lead after the 5-2 victory in the first meeting.

The opening match in Madrid produced an entertaining contest with both teams finding the net. Atletico finished the game with 11 shots and seven on target while Tottenham also produced 11 attempts with five on target. The match delivered seven goals and underlined the attacking quality both sides bring into this tie.

Atletico controlled the rhythm of the game with 58% possession and completed 417 accurate passes while Tottenham finished with 296. The Spanish side also spent more time in advanced areas with 24 touches inside the opposition box compared with 17 from Spurs.

Tottenham still produced threatening moments despite spending longer without the ball. The London side covered 116.2 km during the match and produced 12 interceptions as they worked to disrupt Atletico’s attacking play.

Spurs arrive for the second leg after a positive domestic result. They secured a 1-1 draw away at Liverpool which helped move them further clear of the bottom three. The performance showed resilience but pressure remains on manager Igor Tudor as the club looks to stabilise results.

Despite the first leg defeat, Tottenham bring a strong European home record into the match. Spurs are unbeaten in their last 24 UEFA home games with 20 wins and four draws. They have also won all four home matches in this season’s competition without conceding.

Atletico arrive with attacking momentum. They have opened the scoring in seven of their last eight Champions League matches and Julian Alvarez has scored 13 goals in his last 16 appearances in the competition.

How the bookies view it: Bookies split on victors

Tottenham are priced at 8/5 in the match winner market, which equates to a 38.46% implied probability of a home victory. Atletico Madrid are also priced at 8/5, representing the same 38.46% implied probability of an away win. The draw is available at 29/10, which implies a 25.64% probability.

The goals markets suggest expectations of a relatively open contest in London. Over 2.5 goals is priced at 8/11, which converts to a 57.89% implied probability of at least three goals in the match.

Both teams to score is available at 4/6, representing a 60.00% implied probability of goals at both ends.

Head to Head: Visitors hold the edge

The two sides have met twice in previous meetings with Atletico Madrid winning both matches. Across those games the Spanish side have scored six goals while conceding two, producing an average of four total goals per match.

The most recent meeting came on 10 March 2026 in the Champions League round of 16 first leg where Atletico secured a 5-2 victory in Spain. The match produced seven goals and showed the attacking threat both teams carried in the tie.

The other meeting came in an international club friendly in July 2016 where Atletico recorded a 1-0 win against the London side.

Players to watch: Solanke to hit the target as Spurs chase the game

Dominic Solanke has made a strong impact in limited minutes for Tottenham in this Champions League campaign and the numbers support interest in him registering 1+ shot on target.

The forward has featured in three matches and played 132 minutes, scoring three goals across those appearances. He has produced six shots with four on target which shows high efficiency in front of goal.

His performances include one goal against Borussia Dortmund, one against Eintracht Frankfurt and another in the first leg against Atletico Madrid. In that match he recorded two shots with both on target despite playing only 45 minutes.

Across his three appearances he has recorded at least one shot on target in every match. That consistency, combined with his goal return, highlights his ability to test the goalkeeper when given opportunities.

With Tottenham expected to push forward in the second leg, his role in attacking areas should again provide chances to shoot. Those numbers support Dominic Solanke to record 1+ shot on target.

Predicted line-ups

Tottenham Hotspur (3-4-3): Kinsky; Danso, Dragusin, Van de Ven; Porro, Gray, Sarr, Spence; Kolo Muani, Solanke, Tel.

Atletico Madrid (4-4-2): Musso; Pubill, Le Normand, Hancko, Ruggeri; Simeone, Llorente, Cardoso, Lookman; Griezmann, Alvarez.

Anything else catch the eye?

The statistical profile of the first leg between these two sides points towards another match featuring goals at both ends which supports the angle of both teams to score and over 2.5 goals.

The opening match in Madrid produced a high volume of quality chances. Atletico generated 2.59 xG while Tottenham produced 1.99 xG which created a combined 4.58 expected goals across the contest.

Both teams consistently created opportunities in dangerous areas. Each side produced five big chances during the match which highlights how regularly the attacks reached clear scoring positions.

Chance creation largely came from open play. Atletico generated 2.33 xG from open play while Tottenham produced 1.68 from the same situations. Those figures underline how frequently both teams were able to progress the ball into scoring areas.

Shot location also reflects the attacking nature of the tie. Both teams produced nine shots inside the penalty area which shows how often defensive lines were broken during the game.

Even with Atletico controlling possession, Tottenham still created opportunities. The London side produced the same number of total shots as Atletico and regularly threatened the goal despite having only 42% of the ball.

The game state heading into the second leg also encourages attacking play. Tottenham must chase the deficit after the 5-2 defeat which should force them to commit players forward.

With both teams already producing multiple big chances and a high combined xG total in the first meeting, the numbers support another open contest featuring both teams scoring and over 2.5 goals.

Barcelona To Score 2+ (Wednesday, 17:45)

Both aiming to reach the Champions League quarter-finals, Barcelona and Newcastle will meet for the second leg of their last-16 tie on Wednesday evening.

It was honours even at St James’ Park last week as the two sides played out a 1‑1 draw.

Back at their Camp Nou base for this week’s second leg, Barcelona will be quietly confident about their chances of progressing.

Hansi Flick’s side have won all 14 of their La Liga home games this season, scoring two or more goals in each victory, and they may need a couple of strikes to see off the Magpies.

Southampton vs Norwich – Both Teams to Score (Wednesday, 19:45)

Southampton will look to maintain their push for a play-off spot in the English Championship when they host Norwich on Wednesday night.

The Saints ended the weekend in 7th place after a 2‑1 victory away at league leaders Coventry on Saturday.

As for Norwich, they continued their strong form under Philippe Clement with a 2‑0 win over Preston at the weekend.

Both teams have scored in 27 of Southampton’s 37 league matches this season, and with both sides in good form, goals at both ends look likely at St Mary’s.

Liverpool To Score 2+ (Wednesday, 20:00)

Aiming to overturn a one-goal deficit, Liverpool will welcome Galatasaray to Anfield for the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie on Wednesday night.

Arne Slot’s side suffered a 1‑0 defeat in Turkey last week for the second time this season, having also lost by the same scoreline to the Lions during the league phase of the competition.

However, the Reds will fancy their chances of turning the tie around, given Galatasaray’s struggles on the road in this season’s Champions League.

In fact, the Turkish giants have conceded multiple goals in four of their five continental away games so far, and they look set to suffer the same fate on Merseyside.

Tottenham vs Athletic Madrid – Over 2.5 Goals (Wednesday, 20:00)

Tottenham face a monumental task to keep their Champions League campaign alive when they host Atletico Madrid in the second leg of their round-of-16 tie on Wednesday night.

Igor Tudor’s side were ripped apart in the Spanish capital last week when suffering a heavy 5‑2 defeat.

Spurs, however, did lift spirits in their Premier League survival battle with a 1‑1 draw at Liverpool on Sunday.

Over 2.5 goals has landed in 15 of the pair’s 20 combined Champions League matches this season, and another end-to-end encounter is expected in the English capital.

Liverpool will look to boost their hopes of Champions League qualification as they welcome crisis-club Tottenham Hotspur to Anfield on Super Sunday.

Liverpool saw their three-match winning run in the Premier League come to an end last time out, as they suffered a dramatic 2-1 defeat away at rock-bottom Wolves.

Arne Slot’s men did get revenge three days later against the Old Gold by winning 1-3 in the fifth round of the FA Cup – on an evening I landed a 1/1 winner – but they come into this clash after suffering a 1-0 defeat in Istanbul on Tuesday night against Galatasaray in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie.

Another side who suffered defeat in the Champions League on Tuesday night were Spurs, as they were thrashed 5-2 in the Spanish capital by Atletico Madrid.

In the Premier League, Igor Tudor’s men are in the midst of an 11-game winless run (W0-D4-L7) – losing each of their previous five – which leaves them in 16th position, just a point outside of the relegation zone.

How the bookies view it: Liverpool clear favourites

Liverpool are clear favourites to return to winning ways on Sunday, with bet365 pricing a home success at just 3/10.

Tottenham are 15/2 underdogs to put an end to their 11-match winless run in the Premier League, whilst the draw is also unfancied at 5/1.

Head to head: Reds dominance

Liverpool have lost just one of their previous 16 Premier League encounters with Tottenham (W12-D3-L1), winning each of their last four.

Spurs also have a notoriously bad record at Anfield, winning on just one of their last 31 Premier League visits (W1-D9-L21) to that side of Merseyside.

Players to watch: Hugo knows where the goal is

Hugo Ekitike was the hero when these two sides met in the reverse fixture in North London, with his goal proving to be the winner in Liverpool’s 1-2 success.

The French attacker has also scored 10 goals across his previous 19 appearances for the Reds – including braces in recent home successes over Newcastle United and West Ham United – and is an appealing 4/5 at bet365 to Score on Sunday.

Liverpool will still be missing Giovanni Leoni, Conor Bradley, Wataru Endo and Alexander Isak through injury, whilst goalkeeper Alisson and Federico Chiesa are doubts.

Spurs will be without Destiny Udogie, Dejan Kulusevski, James Maddison, Ben Davies, Lucas Bergvall, Rodrigo Bentancur, Wilson Odobert and Mohammed Kudus, Cristian Romero and Joao Palhinha through injury, as well as Micky Van de Ven who is suspended, while Conor Gallagher is a doubt.

Tottenham Hotspur: Vicario, Gray, Danso, Dragusin, Porro, Sarr, Gallagher, Spence, Tel, Kolo Muani, Richarlison

Anything else catch the eye?

Both teams have deficits to overturn in the Champions League in midweek, but given their need for points in the Premier League for very different reasons, both will have full focus on this clash.

Tudor has lost each of his opening four contests since taking charge at Spurs, and given their abysmal record at this venue, it’s hard to see that run changing on Sunday.

Goals have been a feature of this fixture in recent years, with Both Teams to Score landing in 16 of the last 17 Premier League meetings between the pair, whilst 15 have also gone Over 2.5 Goals.

Both Teams to Score & Over 2.5 Goals pays an appealing 20/21 at bet365, whilst a Liverpool Win & Both Teams to Score pays a juicier 6/4 with the same firm (place on bet builder to get the early payout option).
