English Premier League Saturday Betting Tips PT 2
- By A.J. Ryder on August 19, 2015 20:25 GMTKicking off the action on Saturday is Manchester United - who seemingly played on Sunday every single week last year but now have had a feast of Saturday fixtures - often in the opening spot at 12:45. They take on Newcastle United in this big clash and you can expect them to start this match with a bit more verve since they put together a solid performance against Club Brugge in the Champions League qualifiers they played in on Tuesday.

Despite getting off to a horror start by conceding an away goal from Michael Carrick about ten minutes into the match, the United side saw their fixture punctuated by a massive statement from Memphis Depay who went on to score two great goals but should probably have got the hat trick or even four strikes before super-sub Marouane Fellaini scored a vital insurance goal with virtually the last kick of the match.
United come into their fixture against Newcastle as the 1/3 betting favourite right now for the outright victory at Old Trafford. The draw sits at a 4/1 margin while the Magpies (who haven’t had a terrible start to the season by any stretch of the imagination) can be backed at a very lengthy 17/2. Look for Memphis Depay to make another big impression here as Louis Van Gaal will feel vindicated by his moves, formation and substitution as Memphis will likely be shifted into attack full-time now instead of shunted out to the wing.
The 3:00 pm fixtures see a few interesting fixtures kicking off with Crystal Palace and Aston Villa both in action here in a match-up that appears to be heavily tilted towards the London-based club who trades at 17/20. The 5/2 margin is paying out on the draw and that could be plausible - particularly if Villa grab the first strike of the match.
Aston Villa trade at a 7/2 margin here to get the victory and that makes things interesting because the bookmaker do seem to think that they have things figured out and might be able to kick on here and make an impression.
