I'VE been quite critical of the EPL since its return and it's been justifiable criticism given some of the dross that has been served up over the last few weeks.
Its been painful to watch and there haven't been too many games to write home about – the lack of goals has been well documented, escpailly the severe number of half time 0-0's (which again landed last night).
I've only ventured into the EPL once since its return and that was on Spurs corners last week which came in comfortably and its another corners bet I'm on tonight as Manchester United make the tricky trip to the south coast to face a Brighton side who can be delighted with their 4pts haul from their games against Arsenal and Leicester.
Its another must win for the visitors as they look to close the gap on 4th placed Chelsea for that last UCL spot and I like the look of United to maintain their strong performances in the corners markets.
There's also 7 matches from the Championship and it's a leagues that's seen much more in the way of goals. Sides starting to get back onto their rhythm and they'll be aided by much cooler conditions in comparison to the last few weeks which will hopefully aid the tempo.
Brighton vs Manchester United (KO 8pm)
Its been a decent enough return to action for United, a draw away at Spurs, comfortable victory at home to Sheffield United and through to the Semi final's of the FA cup
They've collected some good corner counts in those game – 6 at spurs, 10 at home against Sheffield and 7 on Saturday at Norwich and with the 4th highest corner count in the league on the road (5.9 per game), given the importance of this match. theirs a good chance they'll hit 6+ for the 4th consecutive game
Brighton have been a real surprise package since returning and they wont be sitting back tonight which could benefit United's pace on the break
Recommended Bet:
- Manchester United 6+ team corners
- 10/11 (NAP) (Skybet)
English Championship Total Goals – 7 Matches
Some good looking matches tonight, the cobwebs blown away and much better conditions to play football in will hopefully help deliver some goals
The total goal markets are set reasonably at 8/11 for 18+ but going to take 19+ at 11/10 based on the match ups
Recommended Bets:
- 19+ total goals
- 11/10 (Skybet
All 9 matches over 1.5 match goals also worth taking on at a big 9/1
I'm a St Johnstone diehard and football tipster from Perth, now living in Glasgow. I've been writing football previews and tips for Mr Fixit since 2015, with in-depth knowledge of Scottish football and betting markets, particularly goals and corners markets. You’ll often find me conversing on Twitter @GregBrowning84.
Still very enjoyable to watch though. Alot benefited backing draw ht ect or follow patterns an can benefit from that.
Always going to be slow start, like pre season.
May not be goals that most for but done me well so far 😁
Sadly both lost 😕
Better Luck next time Greg!
