EPL Sunday betting tips & prop picks – Matchweek 3

After seven English Premier League games on Friday and Saturday, Matchweek 3 offers EPL fans three more games on Sunday. Below, we present our top EPL betting picks for Burnley v Aston Villa, Sheffield United v Manchester City, and Newcastle v Liverpool.

Burnley v Aston Villa

After suffering a 5-1 loss to Newcastle United in their opener, Aston Villa rebounded in Matchweek 2 with a commanding 4-0 victory over Everton. In this upcoming game, we anticipate their momentum to continue. Despite Burnley’s newfound optimism as a promoted team, they do not quite measure up to Aston Villa. Despite being the visiting side, Villa should possess an edge in pace against Burnley and overpower them athletically.

Ollie Watkins anytime goalscorer

Although he hasn’t managed to score in the first two games of the season, Ollie Watkins remains a highly active component of Aston Villa’s attacking strategy. With 15 goals credited to him in the previous season, his prowess as a finisher is well-established. Considering our prediction that Villa will comfortably secure victory, the +165 odds for Watkins to score offer compelling value.

Sheffield United v Manchester City

Manchester City should dominate Sheffield United, a newly promoted team striving to acclimatise to top-flight football. Admittedly, Manchester City are missing star attacking midfielder Kevin De Bruyne, yet that only elevates Phil Foden’s role. The young Englishman proved himself to be City’s standout player in their previous weekend’s triumph, and he is offering great value to score a goal in this one.

Newcastle United v Liverpool

Despite their loss to Manchester City last weekend, Newcastle held their ground and played competitively. They outperformed Liverpool over the course last season, and the current line appears to favour the Reds’ name recognition. Although Liverpool is a prominent club, their performances this season have been somewhat underwhelming. Therefore, we are opting for Newcastle to secure a home victory as they try to solidify their standing among the Premier League’s top teams.
