Burnley vs Arsenal betting picks(Sunday,March 7)
Burnley have had a colorful season, having won barely one of the last five Premier League games. In addition, they have drawn three times and lost once. They will undoubtfully miss injured Ashley Barnes who has netted 43% of Burnley’sPremier League goalsagainst Arsenal. He is the only player in this squad to score against the Gunners in the league, but he has been ruled out of action since February 20, due to athigh injury. The last time the Clarets met with Arsenal, they won 1-0 with Granit Xhaka being sent off, and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scoring an own-goal.
Mikel Arteta’s side, meanwhile, will look to continue their 8-game unbeaten streak at theTurf Moor. Arsenal have four wins and four draws on Burnley’s home ground, with four clean sheets in thelast five matchups in Lancashire. The North London’s side most powerful weapon in this game will beAubameyang, who has scoredseven Premier Leaguegoals againstBurnley, more than against any other side.
Burnley will certainly aim to win two games in a row over Arsenal for the first time sinceseason 1962/63 but with Barnes missingthe clash and the Clarets failing to score at all in the last four matches,it would make sense that the Gunnerswin this game 3-0.Thescore line is paying +1300, as per FanDuel.
Manchester City vsManchester Unitedbetting picks(Sunday,March 7)
TheManchester derby is undoubtedlythe most exciting game of Round 27.Manchester City have been unstoppable this season, as they are on an incredible 20-game winning runin all competitions. The last time they lost a game was on November 21, 2020, when they were beaten 2-0 by Tottenham in Round 9 of the Premier League. An interesting fact is that if the Citizenswin or draw,they will make a new club record of 28 games without a defeat in all competitions.
While Manchester Unitedhave improved so much as to reach the form of their lives, probably their best form in years. The Red Devils will attempt to beat City consecutively on their home soil for the first time since April 2010. In addition, they will have the chance to win three consecutive games against them in all competitions since 2000. If United do win,Ole Gunnar Solskjær will become the first Man Utd manager in theirhistory to win all of hisMan City clashes. However, they have failed to score in three of their most recent games in all competitions.
To be honest it looks doubtful that Unitedwill be able to stop City’s impressive run, especially at the Etihad Stadium.It’s not unreasonable to think that Manchester City canwin this game 3-1and thatscore line is paying +1100, as per FanDuel.
Chelsea vs Evertonbetting picks(Monday,March 8)
Since Chelsea hadappointed Thomas Tuchel,they have forgotten what it’s like to lose. Chelsea are yet to be defeated underthe German boss, having grabbed six triumphs and two draws in eight games in all competitions so far. In addition, Tuchel has managed to bring the Blues’ defence back to life, as the club have conceded only two goals under their new coach, and it’s worth mentioning that even Kepa managed one clean-sheet.
On the other side of the pitch, they will meet the inspired Everton. In spite of all struggles, the Toffees have really impressed this season under renowned Italian manager, Carlo Ancelotti. The good news for them is that they have managed three triumphs, a draw, and a loss tothe Blues in their five most recent head-to-head duels. In addition, Ancelotti’s side can boast winsagainst Liverpool in the Merseyside derby, as well as over Arsenal, and a draw with Manchester United.
Having all this in mind,in spite of the fact that DraftKingsare favoring Chelseaby a big margin, asthe Bluesarepaying out -182, it doesn’t look impossible that Everton, who are at+525, could pull off a surprise upset here.If you got to pick anyone to put the ball in the back of the net in this game look no further than Richarlison, as heis at +1150 to bethe first/last one to score, as per DraftKings. TheBrazilian winger has netted six goals in Everton’s last six games.
Parlays for these three matchups of Premier League Round 27
