English Premier League Saturday Betting Preview Part 2
- By A.J. Ryder on January 18, 2013 19:53 GMT
West Ham vs QPR is going to be one of the more interesting match-ups on Saturday with the Hammers getting the edge to get the result over Harry Redknapp’s men. After being beaten by Manchester United in their FA Cup replay, you may want to opt for QPR to get the result here - especially because they carry a solid 14/5 price.
Despite West Ham trading at 11/10, you will probably find Rangers in need of the points and they would be doing themselves a world of good if they were able to get the result here.
Liverpool face off against Norwich and they’ll be looking to get a victory against one of the Premier League’s more accomplished giant killers. The Canaries trade at 8/1 for the win and Brendan Rodgers men can be backed at 1/3.
Wigan face a nearly must-win clash against Sunderland on Saturday and they are 23/20 to get the victory here. This is usually when Wigan start stringing together some decent results in their customary great-escape fashion. They never do it the easy way, yet they always seem to hang around. Sunderland are 13/5 and some might think they’re good value to get the away win here.
Manchester City are hefty favourites to get the better of Fulham. You’ll find the Citizens at 1/4 and heavily-invested in getting a victory against the Cottagers. With United facing a much trickier fixture this week, they may view it as a rare opportunity to make up points. Fulham are 11/1 for the win and the bookmakers seem to think this one is nearly done and dusted.
Newcastle vs Reading is a proper six-pointer with the Magpies at 8/11 and the Royal trading at 4/1. This one could go either way, and the 5/2 draw wouldn’t do much for both sides but may tempt the punters.
Swansea get the 5/4 edge against Stoke City who are priced at 23/10. This one looks to be down to who scores first.
West Brom are odds-on at 3/4 to get the better of Aston Villa, who can be backed at 4/1 to get a much-needed victory.
