Today's Premier League betting tips and predictions

Aston Villa vs Chelsea (19:30pm)

Aston Villa v Chelsea

Tipster: Darren Plant

Aston Villa play host to Chelsea on Wednesday evening in a potentially pivotal match in the race for a top-five finish in the Premier League table.

Tip 1: Aston Villa To Win and Both Teams To Score

Despite their recent struggles in Premier League home fixtures, Villa have only conceded three goals in four such matches.

While Chelsea are struggling for wide options for this contest, they have scored in 26 of their 28 Premier League matches during 2025-26.

Villa have recorded back-to-back 2-1 victories over Chelsea in the Premier League.

Across the last 10 games, Chelsea have only kept two clean sheets. They have been against Champions League minnows Pafos and Championship club Hull City.

Tip 2: Tammy Abraham To Score

Tammy Abraham may be considered for a start ahead of Ollie Watkins for this game, the former Chelsea forward having impressed since his return to Villa.

He had scored in successive games against Newcastle United and Leeds United before being restricted to a substitute outing versus Wolves.

Abraham is priced around 6/4 to score anytime, while Morgan Rogers to provide a goal or assist at 21/20 with Bet365 – despite his recent poor return – may be viewed as too attractive to turn down.


Brighton vs Arsenal (19:30pm)

Brighton v Arsenal

Tipster: Greg MacLean

Arsenal will look to strengthen their position at the top of the Premier League table as they travel to the AMEX Stadium to take on mid-table Brighton & Hove Albion.

Tip 1: Arsenal To Win and Over 1.5 Goals

Arsenal are unbeaten in each of their previous six meetings with the Seagulls (W4-D2-L0), including a 2-1 success in the reverse fixture at the Emirates at the end of December.

Tip 2: Both Teams To Score

Goals look on the card at the AMEX on Wednesday night, with Both Teams to Score paying an appealing 1/1 at Betfred, a selection that has landed in each of Arsenal’s last four Premier League encounters across all venues and in seven of their past 10 away from home.

What’s more, the Seagulls have failed to score just twice at home this season, with 10/14 (71%) of their clashes at the AMEX this season producing goals at both ends.


Fulham vs West Ham (19:30pm)

Fulham v West Ham

Tipster: Sam Varley

Aiming to make it three straight wins and climb as high as seventh in the Premier League table, Fulham will welcome West Ham United to Craven Cottage on Wednesday.

Tip 1: Fulham To Win and Over 2.5 Goals

Looking at both sides' statistics heading into Wednesday's game points to an opportunity with Fulham to win and see over 2.5 goals in the match.

While the hosts have only generated 18.56 xG in home matches this season, they have managed to score 24 in those 14 league outings at Craven Cottage thanks to above-average finishing from the likes of Harry Wilson and Raul Jimenez.

Indeed, Marco Silva’s side have scored two goals or more in eight of their last 11 matches, while not keeping a single clean sheet in those matches or any since the turn of the year.

West Ham United travel across London with one of the Premier League’s worst away records, losing seven and only winning three of their 14 top-flight outings on the road. In those matches, the Irons have conceded 27 goals from an xGA of 25.89, a tally only topped by two teams in the division.

With only two teams possessing a worse average xGA per match on the road, while holding their own at the other end of the pitch, generating over 1 npxG on average in away games, West Ham United may well fall just short in a high-scoring contest on their travels.

Tip 2: Both Teams To Score

The Both Teams to Score market may be looked at in isolation at 8/13 on Bet365, given it has landed in 8 of Fulham's last 10 league games and in 57% of West Ham's away games this term.

In addition, Fulham have only failed to score once at home in the Premier League this season, while West Ham have only been shut out in 29% of their league away games despite their standing in the fight for survival.

Tip 3: Harry Wilson To Score or Assist

Harry Wilson is enjoying his best ever Premier League campaign this term, scoring nine goals and assisting six in 27 league appearances for Fulham.

He ended a five-game goal drought in the weekend’s win over Tottenham, after assisting away at Sunderland, and the Welsh international is priced at 21/20 on Bet365 to score or assist on Wednesday.


Man City vs Nottingham Forest (19:30pm)

Man City v Nottingham Forest

Tipster: SlipsTips

Manchester City will look to remain hot on the heels of title rivals Arsenal when they face Nottingham Forest at the Etihad on Wednesday evening.

Click here to read our full expert preview for this match

Tip 1: Man City To Win and Under 4.5 Goals

Backing Manchester City to win alongside under 4.5 goals engineers an eye-catching 4/5 shot on bet365’s Bet Builder feature.

This combination would have proven profitable in 15 of City’s 18 top-flight victories this term, including each of their last eight.

The case for siding with this selection is further strengthened by the fact that it also paid out in this season’s reverse fixture against Nottingham Forest.

Tip 2: Antoine Semenyo To Score or Assist

With an impressive return of four goals and one assist across his first seven Premier League appearances for Manchester City, Antoine Semenyo offers value to register another goal involvement on Wednesday night at 5/6 with PaddyPower.

Tip 3: Morgan Gibbs-White 1+ Shot on Target

Having hit the target in eight of his last 12 Premier League outings, including Sunday’s 2-1 defeat to Brighton, Morgan Gibbs-White looks worthy of support to repeat the trick at the Etihad this midweek at 11/10 with bet365.


Newcastle vs Man Utd (20:15pm)

Newcastle v Man Utd

Tipster: Kevin Mac

Newcastle United have been the most inconsistent team in the Premier League this season, so it's hard to know what to expect when in-form Manchester United come to St James' Park.

Click here to read our full expert preview for this match

Tip 1: Newcastle To Score Over 1.5 Goals

Although Manchester United have been racking up an impressive run of results, performances haven't been great in the last few games.

They only just edged past 10-man Palace on Sunday so I fancy Newcastle to get a bit of joy if the Toon Army get behind their side.

Over 1.5 Newcastle goals pays 19/20 at Coral while backing the Magpies to win the first half pays 2/1.

Tip 2: Bruno Fernandes To Score or Assist

United skipper Bruno Fernandes looks far more comfortable in Carrick's system and he scored from the spot in Sunday's win over Crystal Palace. The playmaker is evens at Paddy Power for a goal or assist here.

Tip 3: Kobbie Mainoo Over 0.5 Fouls and Joelinton Over 1.5 Fouls

The midfield battle should be tasty and combining a foul for Kobbie Mainoo with over 1.5 fouls for Joelinton pays 164/100 at Coral.
