When Do We Post Our EPL Best Bets?
We tend to post our EPL betting tips two or three days before the game in question kicks off, though it can vary. Much depends on the schedules of the teams involved.
There are domestic cup competitions such as the FA Cup and EFL Cup, along with European competitions and English clubs have to juggle these commitments with their EPL fixtures.
We cannot produce EPL soccer predictions until both teams have played their previous fixtures and English teams are often playing both at the weekend and in midweek.
The AI systems behind our soccer picks need all the relevant information that allows them to produce countless simulations of EPL games.
These factors include selection news, form, head-to-head records, in-game statistics, tactics and weather conditions.
Much of this information will not be accurate, until quite close to the game. The simulations give us an idea of how games are likely to unfold.
We compare this information with bets that are available at our recommended betting sites to generate our Premier League betting predictions.
Again, we are not able to do this too far in advance, as sportsbooks will only release their full set of odds for soccer games, a couple of days before kick off.
How to Use Our EPL Picks & Betting Advice?
You can make the most of our EPL predictions today by signing up with one of our recommended offshore sportsbooks.
There are no federal laws prohibiting the use of offshore sportsbooks, so they are a popular, safe and legal choice for many US bettors. We use this type of betting site to source the bets for our EPL betting picks.
In this section, we’re going to highlight some of the betting options that you will find when you follow our EPL football tips. These reflect wider AI sports picks we make on major leagues both across America and worldwide.
EPL Match Predictions
Many of our Premier League betting picks are based around the occurrences within an EPL match. Here are some of the lines that fall into that category.
3 Way Moneyline
This is the first betting market that you are likely to see when you click on any EPL match at a sportsbook.
You have three options, which are to bet on the home team to win, the draw, or an away win.
This 3 way moneyline differs from a traditional moneyline bet, because wagering on a tie is an available choice.
The market is often known as 1×2, with the 1 representing the home win, the x being the draw/tie and the 2 representing the away victory.
Both Teams to Score (BTTS)
As the name suggests, this line allows you to bet on the possibility of both teams scoring a goal in a game.
If you think that both teams will score, then you bet on ‘Yes’. Should you think that at least one team will not concede in the game, then you should go for ‘No’.
Double Chance
If we’re playing it safe with our EPL picks then we might recommend a double chance bet. With this wager, you are betting on two of the possible three results.
You can bet on the home team to win and the draw, the away team to win and the draw, or either the home or the away team to win.
Draw No Bet
This is another option that we might go for if playing it cautiously with our Premier League score predictions. With this bet you are backing one of the two EPL teams to win the game.
If there is a draw, the bet is made void and your stake is returned. As you might expect, the odds are a little slimmer for the teams to win, than is the case on the 3 way moneyline.
EPL Score Predictions
Betting on the correct scores in EPL fixtures is a popular choice. As this is a very specific bet, the odds are quite big and consequently bettors often like to wager on two or three different correct scores.
This is a difficult bet to predict an exact score, so our AI-generated Premier League tips for this market can be a useful tool.
Goalscorer Markets
There are many great goalscorers playing in the EPL and you can bet on their performances.
The least risky option is to bet on a player in the anytime scorer market. You can also bet on a player to score the first goal in a match, or the last goal.
Then there is the option for a player to score two or more goals, or three or more goals.
Recent years have seen the advent of being able to bet on players to assist, while you can also bet on an EPL footballer to either score or assist in a match.
Handicap or Spread Betting
If there is a big favorite in a match, don’t be surprised if our EPL betting predictions include a spread market.
Often known as a handicap with soccer betting, a spread sees the favorite be given a handicap to overcome, while the underdog gets an advantage. These are also fun when betting on Copa Libertadores tips and other cups and leagues.
So, for example, the favorite could be given a handicap of -1.5 goals, meaning that they need to win by two goals or more.
The underdog gets an advantage of +1.5 goals, which means that they could lose by a single goal and still be a winner on the spread.
Over / Under Betting
The most popular over under bets involve goals. With soccer being a relatively low-scoring sport, over/under 2.5 goals is often the sweet spot, but over/under 0.5 goals, 1.5, 3.5, 4.5 and other options, will be available.
You can also wager on other soccer stats on an over/under betting basis, such as the number of corners, or bookings.
EPL Parlays
With ten EPL games taking place every weekend, many bettors like to combine their wagers into a parlay bet as the odds multiply from leg to leg.
This is especially popular on a Saturday, when there are often a lot of games played, with many kicking off at the same time.
Combine short-priced bets to create a value wager, or bets with bigger odds, to go for a huge payout.
Props
Popular props for soccer games include betting on whether there will be a sending off in a match, or a penalty given.
Then there are props based on a team’s performance, such as how many corners they will win, or whether they will keep a clean sheet.
Player props are also popular, such as the goalscorer bets mentioned earlier, or whether a player will be booked.
Our AI systems process all the relevant stats and often produce value prop bets amongst our EPL game predictions.
SGPs
Same-game parlays allow you to place a number of bets together from the same EPL match.
This can be a good option, when you’re struggling to find some value from a single bet, which can be the case if there is a heavy favorite.
Use our Premier League picks as the basis of your SGPs.
Win to Nil
If you think that an EPL team are likely to keep a clean sheet, then backing them to win to nil, is a good way to get some extra value from their victory.
As you might imagine, the odds can often be a lot bigger than backing a regular win.
Outright EPL Betting Tips
While betting on a Premier League match brings instant gratification, betting on outright markets is a long-term investment.
Here are some of the EPL future bets that you can place.
EPL Winner Predictions
At the start of the season and throughout it, Premier League winner predictions are available.
In recent years, the title race has been a fight between Manchester City and Arsenal, with Liverpool FC also in contention.
Odds will fluctuate throughout the campaign, reflecting who has the advantage.
Premier League Top 4 Predictions
A place in the top four of the EPL, will guarantee UEFA Champions League qualification. Betting on teams to finish within these positions has therefore become popular.
Teams such as Chelsea FC, Manchester United, Newcastle United and Tottenham are regular contenders for a top four spot.
You can also bet on who will finish in the top six, or top ten, with teams such as Brighton and West Ham United coming into contention for those positions.
Premier League Relegation Predictions
At the other end of the table, many EPL picks today are centered on which teams will be relegated.
The bottom three clubs in the Premier League at the end of the season drop down to the Championship.
It is very often the three promoted teams that start as favorites to be relegated at the start of the season.
As the campaign goes on, there are typically a number of clubs being in danger of going down at some stage, which sees the odds fluctuate regularly.
EPL Schedule
The EPL fixture list for the upcoming season is generally released in June of each year.
It is around this time that EPL tips and predictions for outright markets, really start to take shape.
There are 20 teams in the Premier League and each club plays the other 19 teams, home and away.
This means that each club plays 38 games over the course of the season. The season starts in August and ends in May.
As mentioned, the top four teams in the EPL qualify for the Champions League. There can also be a fifth qualifier if English teams fare well enough in European competitions.
In addition, there are additional European qualifying positions for the Europa League and Europa Conference League.
These qualifying positions are dependent on how many English teams end up qualifying for the UEFA Champions League and the results of the two domestic cup competitions.
Teams earn three points for a win, one for a draw and none for a loss. The three teams with the least amount of points at the end of the season are relegated to the Championship.
