Exciting Premier League Matches to Watch This Weekend

Super Sunday is heating up at Old Trafford, and our football betting expert, Jones Knows, shares his insights on the key Premier League games scheduled for this weekend.

Ipswich vs Aston Villa - Sunday 2pm

Live on Sky Sports

As Ipswich moves into the Premier League, they've found themselves adopting a more aggressive style compared to their Championship days. Their statistics reveal a noticeable increase in fouls per game, with Ipswich averaging 14.2 fouls, receiving 3 yellow cards, and making about 18.4 tackles per 90 minutes. This shift has been necessary as they aim to secure survival in the top tier.

Aston Villa is also known for its confrontational style, foreshadowing a potentially explosive matchup. With 19 of the last 23 matches in this league witnessing 50+ booking points, betting on over 50 booking points at odds of 10/11 with Sky Bet could be a wise choice.

Score Prediction: 1-2 Jones Knows' Best Bet: 50+ booking points (10/11 with Sky Bet, part of 9/1 treble)

Manchester United vs Tottenham - Sunday 4:30pm

Live on Sky Sports

This match promises to be one of the trickiest of the weekend to predict. Manchester United has demonstrated signs of improvement over the season compared to last year. Analyzing their defensive statistics reveals they've only been faced with about 10 shots per game, down from 17.6, and they are conceding significantly fewer corners than last season.

On the flip side, Tottenham’s away record against top 11 teams has been lackluster, with only 2 wins out of 12 matches in the last two seasons, allowing an average of 2.2 goals per game. Despite the allure of a 13/10 home win, the uncertainty surrounding Manchester United urges caution.

Score Prediction: 2-2

Bournemouth vs Southampton - Monday 8pm

Live on Sky Sports

All eyes will be on Southampton’s Tyler Dibling. The 18-year-old is making headlines with his stellar performances, including a standout debut against Manchester United where he won a penalty and recently scored in a 1-1 draw against Ipswich.

Dibling’s ability to draw fouls—having attracted eight in his initial Premier League starts—could prove beneficial for Southampton. Keep an eye on Bournemouth's Milos Kerkez, who may be prone to cards against the fiery Dibling, with odds of 9/2 for him to be carded looking promising.

Score Prediction: 1-1
