Today's Premier League betting tips and predictions
Crystal Palace vs. Wolverhampton Wanderers (2pm)
Crystal Palace are still a bit too close to the Premier League drop zone for comfort so they will be desperate to put three more points on the board when they host rock-bottom Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Tip 1: Crystal Palace -2 corner handicap
Wolves have been winning an average of just two corners across their last four games and we only saw five match corners when these sides last faced off.
That makes under nine corners a decent option at 5/4 with Paddy Power while backing Palace at -2 in the corner handicap pays evens with William Hill.
Tip 2: Mateus Mane over 0.5 shots on target
Wolves kid Mateus Mane usually offers a threat and the livewire is 6/4 at Unibet just to have an effort on target.
Nottingham Forest vs. Liverpool (2pm)
Liverpool will look to record back-to-back wins in the Premier League for the first time since the end of December as they travel to the City Ground to take on relegation-threatened Nottingham Forest on Sunday afternoon.

Tip 1: Liverpool to win
Liverpool are favourites to claim a third consecutive win in all competitions on Sunday, with bet365 pricing an away success at 4/5.
Liverpool’s matches have been a nightmare to predict this season, given they have been consistently inconsistent, but I’m willing to give them the edge here despite their poor record at this venue – one win in their last 15 visits (W1-D8-L6).
The Reds looked back to their old selves at the Stadium of Light in their 0-1 victory there in their last Premier League outing and followed that up with a comfortable 3-0 success over Brighton in the FA Cup.
Tip 2: Dominik Szoboszlai to score or assist
After missing Liverpool’s victory at Sunderland through suspension, Dominik Szoboszlai returned to the starting line-up against Brighton in the FA Cup last weekend, and marked it by scoring the second of the game.
The Hungarian international now has seven goal contributions across his previous eight matches in all competitions for Arne Slot’s side, and the 7/5 on offer at bet365 for him to Score or Assist on Sunday at the City Ground appeals to me.
Sunderland vs. Fulham (2pm)
Both looking to return to winning ways in the Premier League, Sunderland and Fulham will clash at the Stadium of Light on Sunday afternoon.

Tip 1: Harry Wilson one shot on target from outside the box
Bundling up Harry Wilson to attempt two or more shots, with at least one of them to hit the target, will bring about an eye-catching 20/23 Bet Builder on bet365. In-form Fulham ace Wilson is averaging 2.29 shots per game in the Premier League this season, with his on-target figure sitting at 1.03. Additionally, the 13/8 available for Wilson to hit the target from outside the box looks very tempting.
Tip 2: Over 3.5 cards
After both sides picked up three bookings apiece in the reverse fixture, the 5/6 on bet365 for four or more cards in this Stadium of Light clash also looks worth considering.
Tottenham Hotspur vs. Arsenal (4.30pm)
Tottenham Hotspur host Arsenal in the Premier League on Sunday at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in one of the defining fixtures of the season. The North London derby arrives with both sides carrying contrasting underlying profiles across recent weeks.

Tip 1: Under 4 goals & over 3 cards
Across the last eight Spurs average 1.46 xG and 1.67 xGA, while Arsenal post 1.73 xG and concede just 0.85 xGA. Neither side’s recent total xG profile points toward extreme scorelines. Even with Spurs conceding chances, Arsenal’s defensive structure limits chaos. In the last four Arsenal allow only 0.73 xGA and 4.0 shots inside the box per game, suggesting control rather than end to end volatility.
Spurs generate 7.6 shots inside the box across the last eight and 6.5 in the last four, but Arsenal concede only 3.8 across the last eight. That contrast indicates periods of territorial battle rather than continuous high volume exchanges. The underlying numbers support a competitive game that stays within a three goal margin rather than breaking into a five goal outlier.
Meanwhile, Peter Bankes’ matches average 4.33 cards, with 56% going over 3.5. Across the last nine clashes the average stands at 5.22 total cards, comfortably above the four card line.
Tip 2: Both teams to score & both teams to get a card
Adding to the disciplinary stats mentioned in the last tip, we saw both sides receive a card in each of their last 20 meetings. Furthermore, both teams receive a card in 67% of Peter Bankes' matches. The derby intensity, combined with consistent historical booking volume, supports both teams to get a card.
Both teams have scored in four of the last six meetings between Tottenham and Arsenal.
