Saturday 4th May English Premier League Betting Tips

The 2018/2019 Premier League season draws closer to the end with two rounds of matches left to play. Some teams still have a lot to play for as the race for the title is still on the line as Manchester City and Liverpool are separated by a single point.

The battle for the top four also looks like going to the wire with three teams separated by three points battling for the final Champions League slot.

The race for seventh place is almost over with Wolves holding a significant three-point advantage but twist and turns could still happen in the next two matches. We preview the five matches taking place on Saturday with key matchups and give our likely prediction

Bournemouth VS Tottenham

Saturday’s action begins at the Vitality stadium where Bournemouth hosts Tottenham in a game of significant consequences. Tottenham needs a draw to be assured of a top 4 place for next season but their recent form is not encouraging.

Spurs have lost their past two matches against West Ham in the league and Ajax midweek in the Champions League and Bournemouth away is not the clash that Pochettino’s men would relish.

Injuries to their squad mean that Pochettino could be forced to field some fringe players. This game looks like the perfect game for the home side. We predict both teams to score and Home win.

Prediction. Both teams to score/Home win 2-1

Westham VS Southampton

Southampton thrilling 3-3 draw at home to Bournemouth last week ensured another season for the Saints in the Premier League. The clash away to West Ham is one that would be treated with an air of relief from the away side.

West Ham, in contrast, have nothing to play for and are stuck in Midtable without any fears of relegation. We expect an open game filled with a lot of goals and we lean towards the hammers to take a close victory in front of their home fans.

Prediction. Over 2.5 goals/Home win 2-1

Wolverhampton VS Fulham

Wolverhampton have been the standout team below the top six as they have managed to surpass expectations this season. Currently lying in the final European spot Wolves have the opportunity to seal seventh position with a home tie against a relegated Fulham outfit.

Fulham have been in fine form since getting relegated winning two of their last three matches but should be no match for the likes of Rueben Neves and Raul Jimenez. We predict a comfortable victory for the home side.

Prediction. Home win 3-1

Cardiff City vs Crystal Palace

This could be the day when Cardiff gets relegated from the Premier League as the Bluebirds face a plucky Crystal Palace side. Neil Warnock was criticized by some quarters for the negative performance away to Fulham last week. This was rightly so as the Bluebirds disappointed by falling to a limp defeat to the already relegated Cottagers.

Crystal Palace is a different proposition as this is the sort of clash they relish where the home team is obliged to attack. It would be interesting to see how this one pans out but we predict a narrow victory for the home side.

Prediction. Home Win 1-0

Newcastle VS Liverpool

Newcastle host Liverpool at St James Park in the late kickoff game of Saturday. The Reds are in danger of losing out on two titles in a week following the 3-0 defeat against Barcelona on Wednesday.

Liverpool played well but succumbed late to the magic of Lionel Messi. However, the Reds are a different monster in the league having lost one game all season they would head to Newcastle full of confidence.

This game has the hallmark of a spoiler for the Reds as former manager Rafa Benitez would put out a well drilled Newcastle team. We predict a draw in this game which would all but secure the title for rivals Manchester City.

Prediction. Draw 0-0
