Newcastle look like excellent value at these odds given their superb form and home advantage. The Magpies have been outstanding this season, sitting 5th in the Premier League and currently riding a wave of confidence with 5 consecutive wins.

St James’ Park has been a fortress, with Newcastle holding Liverpool and Man City to draws, while securing impressive victories over Arsenal, Tottenham, and Aston Villa.

In stark contrast, Wolves have struggled throughout the campaign and currently find themselves languishing in 17th place. While they enjoyed a brief upturn in form, this momentum seems to have vanished following a heavy defeat to Nottingham Forest.

Wolves have the worst defensive record in the league, and their away form has been dismal, managing just 2 wins from 10 outings.

Given Newcastle’s dominant performances at home and Wolves’ poor form both defensively and on the road, anything other than a home win at St James’ Park would be a significant upset. Backing Newcastle to continue their impressive run looks like a strong play.

David Moyes will return to the Everton managerial hotseat for the first time since 2013 when the Toffees host Aston Villa at Goodison Park on Wednesday evening, and the Scot could start on a positive note on Merseyside.

With the fabled new manager bounce and vociferous home support combining to good effect, Everton could perform with extra energy against an Aston Villa outfit that have been struggling on the road.

The Villains have lost 5 away assignments on the spin in the Premier League, while Villa are one of 2 clubs in the division (alongside Leicester) that are yet to secure a single clean sheet on their travels.

Unai Emery’s Villa could concede for the 10th successive Premier League away fixture when they visit Goodison Park, though the Villains breached the Everton defence 3 times in September’s reverse fixture (3-2) and they can manufacture more chances here.

Both teams managed to register in 2 of the last 3 encounters between Everton and Aston Villa, so look for that trend to continue at an emotionally charged Goodison Park at an attractive price of 1.75.

Since Ruud van Nistelrooy arrived at Leicester City there’s been 24 goals in his 7 Premier League matches at an average of 3.86 per game, with 6 of those games seeing over 2.5 goals.

Fortunes haven’t really turned around since the Dutchman took charge with Leicester now having lost 8 of their last 10 matches in the league. Defensive issues still remain, with the Foxes now having conceded at least 2 goals in their last 6 league matches.

There’s been a noticeable increase in the number of goals Crystal Palace are scoring and thus overall number of goals in their games recently with the introduction of Ismaila Sarr to the starting 11.

Against Premier League opposition, there have been 38 goals in his 14 starts at an average of 2.71 per game. Before being without Sarr, there had only been 18 goals in the 8 matches without him – an average of only 2.25 per game.

The reverse fixture finished 2-2 in September where there was a combined 29 shots, including 23 from inside the penalty area, resulting in a huge 4.51 xG. Crystal Palace’s matches are seeing an underperformance of 16.24 goals so far this season which is not being factored into the odds and line, side with goals here.

Dropped Premier League points at Brighton and cup defeats to Newcastle and Man United mean that Arsenal’s preparations for their derby against North London rivals Tottenham are far from ideal, and the Gunners could find the going tough on Wednesday.

Chance creation hasn’t been an issue for Arsenal of late, though their conversion rate has been dismal and xGF figures of 0.90, 3.76 and 3.87 against Brighton, Newcastle and Man United yielded a total of just 2 goals.

Indeed, Mikel Arteta’s misfiring Gunners have scored 1 or fewer goals in 4 of their last 5 matches at The Emirates Stadium and with Gabriel Jesus joining the injured Buyako Saka on the sidelines, they could struggle to improve their output in Wednesday’s derby.

Arsenal have hit just 5 goals in total across their last 5 tests at home, though Gabriel Jesus accounted for 3 of those in 1 sitting against Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup and the Brazilian attacker had to come off on Sunday with a knee injury, leaving Arteta even shorter on reliable finishers.

In this scenario, Tottenham look underpriced in the +2.0 goal handicap realm. A 2-goal head start applied to Ange Postecoglou’s attack-minded Spurs would have landed in 30 of their 31 fixtures in all competitions this season and they can be backed at a sizeable 1.73 to deliver in the same market here.
