The English soccer league Premier League ends this weekend with Round 38 to be played on Sunday, May 23. Manchester City have already been confirmed as the champions, as they lead Manchester United with 12 points. In addition, the Champions League battle will finally go down as one of Chelsea, Liverpool, and Leicester City will miss out on a spot.
In the final Round 38, fifth-place Leicester City will attempt to avoid playing in the Europa League next season as they receive Tottenham. On the same day, at the same time, the inspired Aston Villa will try to upset the Champions League finalists for this season, Chelsea.
This round provides an opportunity for the bettor to play around with parlays, picks in the over/under, or goalscorers. Here are some betting predictions to consider when placing a bet on these Premier League matchups.
Leicester City vs Tottenham betting picks
Depending on how Chelsea and Liverpool fare in the final round, this will certainly be the ultimate "do or die" matchup for Leicester City. If they win and the other two sides fail to do so, the Foxes could finally return to the UCL again. They host the wounded Tottenham, who have been left in the mud by Jose Mourinho, struggling to secure a place in the second-ranked European competition, the Europa League.
It is the favorites Leicester who are at -105 to win this clash while the wager on Spurs is at +230. Taking into consideration the risk and the pressure that both sides are under, betting that the matchup ends in Over 3.5 goals, for example, is paying out +144 if you want to bet on the clash, as it might be much more interesting than an outright bet. At $100, the bettor could earn $144. If you got to pick anyone to put the ball in the back of the net in this game look no further than Harry Kane or Jamie Vardy. Kane is at +490 to be the first one to score, while Vardy is at +300 to become the first person to open the score.
Aston Villa vs Chelsea betting picks
Aston Villa enter this game with confidence after claiming a victory against Tottenham in Round 37. They are not afraid to face more serious clubs, having already beaten Everton and Arsenal in 2021. However, the real test will now be the Blues, who have suffered only two league defeats under their boss Thomas Tuchel ever since he took over the club in late January. Interestingly, both losses have come from sides who were positioned below them, such as West Bromwich and Arsenal.
The Lions are +550 underdogs, while Chelsea are at -220 to win this Sunday. Betting that the matchup ends in a 2-1 win for the away side, for example, is paying out +700, if you want to bet on the clash, as it might be much more interesting than an outright bet. At $100, the bettor could earn $700. If you got to pick anyone to put the ball in the back of the net in this game look no further than Olivier Giroud, as the Frenchman who is set to play his final game for the Blues, is at +320 to be the first one to score.
Parlays for these two matchups of Premier League Round 38
A solid parlay bet could be the following: Leicester City and Tottenham to score Over 3.5 goals; Harry Kane to be the first one to score; Chelsea to beat Aston Villa 2-1, and Olivier Giroud to net the first goal of the match. At $100, the bettor could win up to $1,654.
