Being at the lower half of the Premier League table at this point of the season is certainly worrying. Hence, with the threat of relegation in front, the likes of Swansea, Crystal Palace, Hull, and Leicester will all look to bag the win in their respective football games.
Betting odds, however, will be stacked against them, and they will need their stars to step up to defy football predictions.
West Bromwich Albion vs Hull City (January 2, 23:00 GMT+8)
Their first meeting this campaign ended in a 1-1 draw, but Tony Pulis’ side will be the one favoured to take all the points in this game considering their performances in their past four home games.
Nevertheless, Hull City will enter this contest with more confidence following their spirited draw with the surging Everton; and if the club’s leading goal scorers Robert Snodgrass and Michael Dawson can replicate their form, it could very well end in a thriller.
Being the underdogs undoubtedly gives the Tigers an advantage, so a 🌟🌟 bet on Hull Asian Handicap +0.75 @ 1.89 is my recommendation.
Middlesbrough vs Leicester City (January 2, 20:30 GMT+8)
Leicester surpassed Middlesbrough in the standings after a surprising win over West Ham in Week 19. Hence, this could be the chance for them to continue their winning ways and move further from the danger zone.
The main issue for the reigning champions, however, will be the absence of star striker Jamie Vardy who is serving the last game of a three-match ban. Though, it shouldn’t pose much of a problem against the Boro who have lost four of their last five Premier League fixtures.
With that said, I’ll go for a 🌟🌟🌟 tip on Leicester Draw No Bet @ 2.01.
Crystal Palace vs Swansea City (January 4, 04:00 GMT+8)
Sam Allardyce still has a lot of work to do for Crystal Palace, but hopes are high that he can turn around the team’s fortune as the second half of the campaign starts.
The controversial manager could have had a winning start with the team if not for a late equaliser from Watford last week, though that draw gave fans a lot to look forward to this 2017 as the Eagles appear to be on their way to stability.
Swansea, in contrast, are in turmoil following the firing of Bob Bradley who served for just 11 games, so they are not expected to provide much of a challenge, especially after allowing 13 goals in their past four games.
Thus, Crystal Palace 1X2 @ 1.80 should be a good 🌟🌟 bet.
