The season seems to be flying by but five weeks in, we finally had our first bad week. It wasn’t a disaster with a nice return from the Brighton and Palace draw but we are looking for a big bounce back in week 6.

West Ham v Man City, London Stadium

West Ham pulled off an incredible comeback a week ago when coming from three behind against Spurs to win but they have an awful record against today’s opponents. City have won nine in a row and there isn’t much to make you believe that run will end today.

There have been goals in West Ham’s games and that should continue today. Pep Guardiola’s side can rack up goals and they will take advantage today.

Manchester United v Chelsea, Old Trafford

These two teams have been wildly unpredictable. On their days they are both very capable of big wins but both have thrown in some awful performances between them. But what they both do is score – and concede – goals.

If I was going to pick the game I would lean towards Man United, but I am staying away and focusing on the totals.

Fulham v Crystal Palace, Craven Cottage

These two teams have a reputation as low scorers, but between them they have seen six of their 10 games go over 2.5 goals. It is rare to see under 2.5 as a favourite in EPL games and that means there is some value in backing the over.

I am avoiding the result of this one again as they are so evenly matched, and there just isn’t value in the draw.

Arsenal v Leicester, Emirates Stadium

Arsenal are a team on the up. Thomas Partey made his full debut on Thursday night and looked phenomenal. He could be the missing piece in the Arsenal midfield. One thing Arsenal certainly do well is playing at home and they can get another win at the Emirates.

These two teams saw all three of their matches go under 2.5 goals last season and both teams are among the teams with the fewest attempts on goal so far this season. So back the under at a pretty nice price.
