“Sheffield United have been impenetrable at home in recent matches and despite this being a derby, and the old adage that form goes out of the window, there does seem to be a class edge between these two Sheffield teams at the moment.

Backing Sheffield United to get the better of Wednesday is a good bet at 1.85. United would usually be shorter than this against a team with Wednesday’s position and points haul, and with United having only conceded in one home game so far this season, they should be confident of keeping Wednesday at bay here.”

“Nottingham Forest have enjoyed a scintillating start to the campaign and moved up to third spot in the table for the first time in 26 years after their convincing win over West Ham.

The Tricky Trees have lost just once in 10 Premier League fixtures so far and are averaging 1.90 points per game, while only Liverpool posted a better figure for xGA.

Newcastle meanwhile, edged out Arsenal in their last Premier League tussle, however, they lodged a meagre 0.50 in xGF against the Gunners and could toil in the final third against a rock-solid Forest defence. The Magpies lost three and drew two of their five league contests before their surprise upturn against Arsenal, so back Forest in the draw no bet market at a generous price here.”

“Levi Colwill has drawn a foul in eight out of ten starts this season under Enzo Maresca, operating in a consistent starting role at centre-back. 

He draws a great matchup at Stamford Bridge against Kai Havertz, who has committed at least one foul in every start this season in all competitions, averaging 1.89 fouls per 90 which is the highest in the Gunners squad. The German is expected to be especially fired up against his former club.”

“No team in Serie A rivals Inter’s impressive average of 7.0 corners per game, substantially outpacing Milan’s 6.2 average, which ranks them second in the league. Inter have dominated the corner match bet in 73% of their league fixtures this season, losing out only twice – against Udinese and Atalanta.

Napoli average just 5.27 corners per game, a figure already low but further skewed by a 16-corner haul against Lecce. Without this game, their average drops to 3.8, placing them 16th in the league for this metric.

Napoli have registered more corners than their opponents in only 45% of their league matches and are unlikely to reverse this trend away at Inter.”
