12.30pm: Fulham v Manchester United

TV: TNT Sports 1 and TNT Sports Ultimate

There is no guarantee at all that Manchester United win this like there used to be. They’ve lost they last two games 3-0 a piece and both were at home as well.

I was looking at the faces of the United fans in the stands after the Newcastle defeat and you wouldn’t wish it on anybody. Newcastle’s fans, on the other hand, were absolutely awesome and did not care a jot about how the home fans were feeling!

To get beaten twice in a row 3-0 it was quite something. They’ve lost four of their last seven and everybody’s throwing around the stats. It’s been their worse start in 100 years and it all comes out.

However, the five games they have won this season have all been against teams sitting 10th or lower in the Premier League. That’s why I’ve got to look at Fulham in this game.

They’re doing alright and they had a good win against Blackburn in midweek in the Carabao Cup. Doing alright would never be enough against Manchester United but it will be enough here.

Fulham have failed to score in four of the last 10 Premier League games so I don’t think it’s going to be a goal fest but I do expect Fulham to Win this game – just. I’m going 2-1 to Fulham so that’s Both Teams To Score and Over 2.5 Goals as well.

In my Bet Builder I’ve also got Bobby De-Cordova Reid to Score Anytime and Marcus Rashford To Have 1 Or More shots On Target. I think he’ll start and he’s got to start producing.

5.30pm: Newcastle v Arsenal

TV: Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League

This is a very even game with the markets and I get that. Looking at this game it’s hard to call because Newcastle have been playing so well as we saw against Manchester United – and what a result that was by the way.

They’ve now scored two or more in each of their last five Premier League games. When they started scoring last season they were leaking them at the back but they’ve kept four clean sheets in the Premier League this season in 10 games and only Arsenal have more on five.

Newcastle are going well at both ends of the pitch and they’re the joint-top goal scorers with 26 goals, though I know eight of those came against Sheffield United. Arsenal got beat 3-1 by West Ham in midweek and that wasn’t great but they have scored in the last 11 games.

Bearing that in mind I think Both Teams Will Score in this one. I’ll go for Newcastle to Win, again I think it will be 2-1 so Over 2.5 goals.

This should be a nice price Bet Builder and this is a very attractive fixture. I fancy Callum Wilson To Score Anytime as Alexander Isak is out for some time. I’ve also got Martin Odegaard To Have 1 Or More Shots On Target, he scored for Arsenal against the Hammers in midweek.
