EPL Sunday & Monday betting picks – Matchweek 2

After six EPL games take place on Friday and Saturday, there are three more scheduled for Sunday and Monday as Matchweek 2 wraps up. Here are our top Premier League betting picks for the rest of the round.

Aston Villa v Everton

Aston Villa came into the season with high hopes, but they suffered a crushing 5-1 defeat to Newcastle in Matchweek 1. It would be premature to dismiss Villa based solely on that outcome; in fact, we anticipate a rebound in this match. Everton didn’t perform well in their opener and, in recent years, have lacked consistent finishing for the few chances they create. We expect Aston Villa to recover from their tough season opener with a victory at home.

Moussa Diaby anytime goalscorer

Although Aston Villa struggled as a team in their first game, their record signing, Moussa Diaby, showcased his star quality. Scoring a goal in that match, Diaby consistently found space along the right flank. His speed and technical prowess could pose problems for Everton’s defence. We anticipate that Aston Villa will score multiple goals at home, and Diaby offers great value to get in on the action.

West Ham United v Chelsea

In a clash between two teams that drew 1-1 in their opening matches, we lean towards the away side. Chelsea’s performance against Liverpool was impressive and indicated a marked improvement from their 12th-place finish last season. The club’s new signings adapted well, which is encouraging for their fans given the extensive first-team changes. West Ham United were solid but unremarkable in their draw with Bournemouth, so there is a bit of value about the visitors on the moneyline at Bovada.

Crystal Palace v Arsenal

Both Crystal Palace and Arsenal secured three points in Matchweek 1, but the Gunners enter this game as clear favorites. Arsenal possess a potent attack that could prove difficult for Palace to handle, and a big part of that is Bukayo Saka. The star winger made an impact early in this young season, scoring a sensational goal from outside the box in Arsenal’s opener against Nottingham Forest. Saka’s ability to find the net from various depths, coupled with the vulnerable state of Crystal Palace’s defence, make him a great play to score at +235 odds with top soccer betting sites.
