Our football betting expert and top tipster who knows Jones is back in the Premier League forecast chair to give his insight and the best bets.
Liverpool vs Bournemouth, Friday 8 p.m., Live on Sky Sports
We'll be back in no time.
Bournemouth, with Andoni Iraola at the helm, will not only park the bus during this Friday night trip to Anfield under the lights.
This is a side that presses high, plays daring and can hit back if they hit behind.
Expect end-to-end football, counterattacks of both teams in a competition that is now a fast-break Central, and a few defensive wiggle to set up the tension, since Liverpool takes a few weeks to get coherence and chemistry on their new backline. This opens the door for Bournemouth to add to the score, so Liverpool to win and both teams to score on 6/4 with Sky Bet must come close.
Score prediction: 4-2
Aston Villa vs Newcastle United, Saturday 12.30 pm
The case for an Aston Villa victory is very compelling on 6/5 with Sky Bet when assessing all the evidence.
Alexander Isak is missing for Newcastle in a saga that is terribly managed by those who advise him – it didn't have to be that way. Of course, Eddie Howe has managed the situation perfectly, so that Isak has given the disappointed father treatment instead of being too heavy in public. Howe is a master in these situations, but an area in management where he is struggling to watch his record is a team to get the season quickly.
In the first three league games of a season for each club he succeeded in it, he only works with a 1.25 points per game ratio (P24 W8 D6 L10) and a Windless Pre-season has not prepared this. In the Champions League and Premier League, villa are unbeaten in 24 home games and win the last seven – including the beating of Newcastle 4-1 in April.
Score prediction: 2-0 | Jones knows the best bet: Aston Villa to Win (6/5 with Sky Bet)
Brighton vs Fulham, Saturday 3 p.m. – Play Super 6 to win £ 1 million!
If one fixture flies under the radar, those goals shout at the prizes this weekend, this is this one. I am here on the drum for the more than 2.5 goal line on 4/6 with Sky Bet as the basis for building a bet.
Brighton wants to be positive at home and play with attacking risk when implementing bodies, but that allows holes behind them to uncover their center backs. That is why supporting the over-line in their matches last season was a gambling-friendly perspective, with 27 of their 38 games that produced three or more goals.
Score prediction: 2-2
Sunderland vs West Ham. Saturday 3 pm – Play Super 6 to win £ 1 million!
This has the smell of a scoreless grind, right?
I have trouble seeing how Sunderland goals score at this level.
Last season they only scored 1.29 goals per match – the eighth highest in the Sky Bet Championship. Even Sheffield on Wednesday was more on average. Regis Le Bris is someone who is suitable for the Figure-first football and that is very difficult to implement in this competition with the quality in opposition. Low probability opportunities are taken.
Le Bris wants to make this a scrap, kill the pace and nip the game. It is the best chance for Sunderland for points.
I would not talk to you from the 0-0 correct score at a juicy price of 11/1 with Sky Bet.
Score prediction: 0-0
Tottenham vs Burnley, Saturday 3 p.m. – Play Super 6 to win £ 1 million!
Now I am not for a second that the side of Scott Parker is about to storm north and run away with three points – but I do think that the markets do not respect Burnley's potential to keep these competitive and overestral traces somewhat based on their Super Cup Heroics.
This is a difficult performance for Thomas Frank.
The expectation is very high internally and Frank has no experience in managing workloads within a team that is asked to compete in four competitions. They looked strong and organized for large parts versus PSG, but I think we should treat that piece very carefully, because the French side was clearly kilometers.
Burnley is not going to change their rigid and pragmatic style that goes up a level. This can be awkward for Spurs, because Burnley should be able to cover their +1.5 goal Start Handicap on 4/5 with Sky Bet, which means that we simply do not need them not to lose with two or more goals.
Score prediction: 1-1
Wolves vs Manchester City, Saturday 5.30 pm, live on Sky Sports – Play Super 6 to win £ 1 million!
Jhon Arias could simply conquer the Premier League in this Wolves team.
All the evidence suggests that he will adjust fairly quickly, be a chief in attack and assessed by what I saw in the World Cup of Club and of people who follow the Brazilian competition, he has the quality to thrive in England. Wolves have played the Brazilian market very cunning in recent years with Joao Gomes and Andre who really show adaptability to the competition.
Fast, direct and a great drawer of errors, Arias will be forward for wolves, because they want to take advantage of the vulnerabilities of Man City in transition without Rodri. Back him to be contaminated at least twice by the Sky Bet Buildabet function at Evens.
Score prediction: 1-2
Chelsea vs Crystal Palace, Sunday 2 p.m., live on Sky Sports – Play Super 6 to win £ 1 million!
Cut from 20/1 to 8/1 in the summer to win the Premier League, there is a chance that Enzo Maresca might be a little extremely exciting at Chelsea. And why should we take them seriously? Moises Caicedo and Cole Palmer – It is the murderers of Chelsea and perhaps the core of what could be a title -winning side.
Since Caicedo has found rhythm in the midfield of Chelsea, he has had so many games, including the club World Cup final against PSG. When Chelsea starts to choke and dominate the ball in large games – which they have to do to win a title – it all starts with Caicedo.
And Palmer is the Stardust.
When the attention is called in, when the stage is at its highest, Palmer plays. He can go to Eden Hazard levels of dominance in Chelsea this season.
This axis places Chelsea in the title mix, no doubt. It is a four -way fight. And they can start with a home victory.
Score prediction: 3-1
Nottingham Forest vs Brentford, Sunday 2 p.m., live on Sky Sports – Play Super 6 to win £ 1 million!
Nottingham Forest played some untenable football last season and it is very difficult to see how they will improve what they have achieved.
Top Goalscorer Chris Wood converted 30 percent of his general attempts in the Premier League previous period, while goalkeeper Matz Sels enjoyed the season of his life, with the best savings percentage in the competition. They cannot be expected to keep those figures informed.
And Bos returns to Europe this season, which will certainly influence the performance of the party.
If you exclude Conference League participants, non-Big-Six teams that are eligible for Europe will win around 14 points less in the campaign immediately after qualification. That is not too relevant for this devilish difficult fixture to analyze from a gambling perspective, but something to notice when the luminaires start to stack. This collision looks like one where the draw is a huge runner on 12/5 with Sky Bet.
Score prediction: 1-1
Manchester United vs Arsenal, Sunday 4.30 pm, live on Sky Sports
This goes to a highly viewed fixture, steeped in Premier League story – but a true goals may be missing.
I am firmly in the camp of less than 2.5 goals – and at the prices offered on 10/11 with Sky Bet, I am happy to endorse it as one of the best bets of the weekend.
Arsenal has traditionally been a very reliable team to go back under goals away from home, although also a risky favorite to go back in these places.
When assessing the last nine games where they went on the road or gone larger, they only won once and the average goals per match are only 1.89 per 90 with seven of the nine that go under 2.5 goals. Moreover, seven of those games ended all-square, while four of the five meetings between Mikel Arteta and Ruben Amorim also put an end to the level.
Score prediction: 1-1 | Jones knows the best bet: fewer than 2.5 goals (10/11 with Sky Bet)
Leeds vs Everton, Monday 8 p.m., live on Sky Sports
Many of the focus and pre-match stories will be about Leeds, but I am excited to see what Everton can do this season.
I think we should start with serious respect on what David Moyes does in the Premier League – for example, I didn't give him enough credit. Since he took over from West Ham, he has registered a 37 percent profit ratio in the Premier League – that is higher than Sean Dyche, Andoni Iraola, Marco Silva and Graham Potter.
And when Jarrad Branthwaite was fit last season (he started 28 games), Everton gave only 28 goals in those matches – that is one goal per game that would be equal to the second best defensive record in the Premier League last season.
With Branthwaite tied to a new deal and money to spend, Moyes may have the tools to believe about expectations. I also love their chances of Elland Road, because Moyes has an exceptional record against newly promoted teams, with a win of 67 percent of the last 16 games. The gain looks big on 19/10 with Sky Bet.
