Manchester United vs Chelsea Predictions & Betting Tips
Sunday sees Manchester United host Chelsea in the 4:30pm kick-off in the Premier League. After…
The first of our top April 13 Premier League betting tips and predictions is for Leicester v Newcastle. We get started on Friday night as the latest round of Premier League fixtures takes place at the King Power Stadium with Sky Sports screening the play live from 8.00pm. This promises to be a fascinating contest as two sides, with nothing to lose, go in search of the points needed to strengthen their position in the top-flight. Brendan Rodgers has helped turnaround the fortunes of Leicester and a win here would lift them three points clear of Wolves and into a strong position to finish seventh this term.
The locals have won four and lost one since Rodgers moved south from Celtic Park answering the call of Leicester and taking on his second crack at the English Premier League. The Foxes were last seen scoring their fourth win in-a-row when hammering sorry Huddersfield less than a week ago. The result was expected but it was a polished performance from the start with a Vardy double added to by Tielmans and Maddison. Another win is favourite with the bookies, priced 7/10 by Bet365.
Newcastle has secured their place in the Premier League for another season, but they go into this contest on the back of a losing run of form and have managed just one win in their last five. The Magpies make this trip with one point secured from the last nine available to them, following a draw with back-to-back defeats in their last two. They sit seven points better than Cardiff in the relegation zone and that means they can breathe easy, but the visitors do appear to have let their guard down.
They started the month with a predictable 2-0 defeat at Arsenal and followed that with a painful 1-0 when hosting Crystal Palace last weekend, a result that ruined a share of accumulators. With the game evenly balanced going into the final 10 minutes, Milivojevic scored an 81st-minute penalty to wrap things up, sending the keeper the wrong way to nail down a valuable three points. Beaten manager Rafa Benitez called it a big disappointment, and fans agreed. The away win has been marked up at 17/4 – best price at Bet365 – the draw a 5/2 poke with the same firm.
