Match Preview: Sheffield United vs Everton (Saturday, 2nd September 2023, 15:00)

Our Expert: @MonsterHunch

An early 6 pointer at the bottom of the premier league between 2 teams who everyone fancies to be there or thereabouts when it comes to relegation this season.

Sheff United were impressive against Man City and were very close to coming away with a really hard earned point and confidence will be flowing at Bramall lane despite the midweek penalty exit of the carabao cup to Lincoln City.

On the other hand, negativity follows Everton like a bad smell and this will be a very close, feisty game.

Match Preview: Leicester City vs Hull City (Saturday, 5th August 2023, 15:00)

Our Expert: @Pete_Tscherewik

Leicester manager Enzo Maresca couldn’t have asked for a better start for his side going into this Championship campaign having been relegated from the Premier League back in May - the only team in the second-tier with a flawless, 12 points from the opening four games.

Hull have quietly gone about their business over the summer, namely with the additions of Ruben Vinagre, Aaron Connolly, Scott Twine (loan) and Liam Delap (loan).

One man has stood out The Tigers so far this season in Ozan Tufan - the 28-year old Turkish midfielder has four goals under his belt already including a hat-trick against Sheffield Wednesday.

Another player who has looked lively for the visitors already is Scott Twine, who has made a temporary switch from Burnley after their promotion to the Premier League.

Leicester, admittedly are priced very short with the bookmakers to come out on top and win the game - however, player shots angles looks a good way in here.

• Tufan has had 2, 3, 4 and 2 shots so far this season.

• Twine has had 1 and 5 shots so far this season - Twine also takes free-kicks, which adds to his appeal.

👉 Best Bet: Ozan Tufan over 1.5 shots // BoyleSports @ 1.8

👉 Next Best: Scott Twine over 1.5 shots // bet365 @ 2.0

Match Preview: Atalanta vs Monza (Saturday, 2nd September 2023, 19:45)

Our Expert: @TCMrmn

Atalanta have won one and lost one so far this season. Giasperini’s side are known for their attacking football but they failed to live up to their high standards last season. They impressed in their opening match by beating Sassuolo 2-0 on the road. However, they were left stunned by Frosinone last weekend. They take on a Monza side thet hammered at this ground they hammered at this ground last season.

Like Atalanta, Monza also have three points after playing two matches. They lost to Inter Milan in their first match but bounced back with a win over Empoli. Monza finished mid table last season and will be looking for a similar finish in this campaign.

I’m backing shots here. This should be an entertaining match with both teams set to create chances. Atalanta’s first two matches have seen 31 and 27 shots. There were 28 shots when they hosted MOnza last season; Giasperini’s side had 20 of them.

Monza’s early matches this season have seen even more shots. Their trip to Inter on the opening day saw 34 shots. They had 12, showing they can create against Serie A’s strongest teams. Their win over Empoli had a whopping 38 shots.

Over 25.5 shots is on Bet 365 at EVENS.

👉 Best Bet: Over 25.5 Shots in The Match @ 2.00 Bet 365

Match Preview: Stuttgart vs Freiburg (Saturday,2nd August 2023, 14:30)

Our Expert: @scottythorn21

Stuttgart were lucky to survive in the Bundesliga last season. They played some exciting football but it seldom translated to points on the board. They’ve started this season with one draw and one defeat. They beat Bochum 5-0 on the opening day but succumbed to a 5-1 defeat against RB Leipzig last weekend.

Freiburg narrowly missed out on qualifying for the Champions League in the last campaign but they have designs of competing at the top end of the Bundesliga once again this season. They’ve started this season with wins over Hoffenheim and Werder Bremen.

Freiburg have had plenty of shots in their matches so far. They had 18 on the road at Hoffenheim in their opening match and 23 in their win over Bremen. Stuttgart conceded 20 shots at Leipzig last weekend, a side that finished just two places above Freiburg last season.

👉 Best Bet: Over 10.5 Shots For Freiburg @ 1.90 Bet 365

Match Preview: Manchester City vs Fulham (Saturday,2nd September 2023, 15:00)

Our Expert: @maccasvaluebets

I’m taking Man City to continue their perfect start to the season with victories over Burnley, Newcastle, Sevilla in the super cup and Sheffield Utd, scoring 6 and only conceding two in total.

There hasn’t been 5 goals in City’s last 18 games across all competitions. To help my angle, there is no KDB due to a hamstring injury.

Whilst card counts have been considerably higher in England this season. I expect City to get the job done without too much of a sweat and once they get one or two, you’ll notice the card odds for unders will dramatically drop inplay across all the major bookmakers.

👉 Best Bet: Man City Win, Under 6 Goals, Under 6 Cards @ 2.00 Bet365

Match Preview: Smith vs Eubank (Saturday, 2ndSeptember 2023, 22:00)

Our Expert: @peteryan04

Chris Eubank Jr and Liam Smith faced off earlier this year. In an exciting fight in the AO arena in Manchester. Smith stopped Eubank to get his hand raised. However, there was some controversy about the ending. As Eubank claims, he got hit by an elbow. The two will go toe to toe again this coming Saturday in Manchester. It looks to be an entertaining contest as Eubank hopes to get revenge on Smith.

Eubank Jr. is, of course, the son of legendary fighter Chris Eubank Sr. Yet, he has created his own legacy in the boxing ring as he has achieved many accomplishments. He has a professional record of 32-3 with 23 knockouts. Eubank Jr. has held many titles throughout his career. He has beaten the likes of Liam Williams, Marcus Morrison, and James DeGale. In addition to this, his only losses come from elite competition such as Billy Joe Saunders. After being stopped by Smith, Eubank Jr will look to get a statement win against his rival. A win would help him get closer to a world title.

Like Eubank Jr, Smith has a great career in the sport. He has been at the top of the sport and looks to return there. Smith has a professional record of 33-3-1 with 20 knockouts. He has beaten the likes of Liam Williams, Anthony Fowler, and Robert Garica. He has won many titles and has even challenged the great Canelo for his crown. Smith looked dominant in the last fight against Eubank Jr before ending the bout early. He will look to do the same this Saturday, as it could go a long way in getting him back into the title picture.

Looking at the fight from a betting perspective, Smith goes into the contest as a 4/7 favourite. At the same time, Eubank Jr. comes in as a 7/5 underdog. The contest is more than likely to go further than the original matchup. Eubank Jr. looked comfortable before getting caught by Smith's big shot. The bookmakers got it right with Smith coming in as the favourite because he looked the more dominant fighter in the first meeting. Furthermore, it is hard to see the fight going any other way. Yet, it should be entertaining and a competitive clash.

👉 Best Bet: Smith to win @ 1.61 Bet 365

👉 Value Bet: Smith to win and round 7 to start @ 2.00 Betfair
