With the Premier League returning this weekend, we have plenty of eye-catching affairs from both ends of the table.
On a Saturday schedule that is highlighted by the likes of Arsenal and Manchester City, we have seven Premier League battles on the cards.
For those of you looking to stick on a Saturday acca, we have taken a look at some of the most appealing Premier League betting markets that are available.
Saturday, February 15th
BST 12:30 Leicester City vs Arsenal
Watching their EFL Cup adventure come to an end last time out as they fell to a 4-0 aggregate defeat at the hands of Newcastle, Arsenal are desperately seeking an immediate response here.
With their four-match winning run across all competitions coming to an abrupt end at St. James’ Park, Saturday’s guests are now facing the prospect of ending the season without a single piece of silverware to show for their troubles.
Facing what is a must-win showdown this weekend, Mikel Arteta’s men should be excited by a dominant record against the Premier League relegation scrappers.
Landing an action-packed 4-2 victory when they welcomed Leicester to north London for their reverse Premier League meeting on September 28th, they have won all of their last six meetings against the Foxes.
Likewise, Arsenal have won their previous four trips to the King Power across all competitions by an aggregate score of 8-1.
While Leicester might have mounted a sensational second-half comeback away at Tottenham last month as they snatched a 2-1 victory, it appears that might have been just a minor boost for Saturday’s hosts.
With the pressure on Ruud van Nistelrooy’s shoulders once again at a boiling point, the Fixes are pencilled in as a leading contender to be hit with an immediate Championship return in 2025.
Suffering FA Cup heartbreak away at Old Trafford last week as they eventually fell to a 2-1 loss against Manchester United, Leicester have now lost nine of their previous 10 meetings against Premier League opposition.
It should also be noted, van Nistelrooy’s men have also lost each of their last four consecutive Premier League showdowns at the King Power.
Tip: Martin Odegaard over 0.5 shots on target @ 10/11
15:00 Aston Villa vs Ipswich Town
Making an immediate return to winning ways last weekend as they extended on their FA Cup adventure thanks to a 2-1 victory against Tottenham, Aston Villa will now be hoping to find some recent stability.
Nevertheless, securing a famous Champions League top-eight finish on January 29th as they claimed a thrilling 4-2 win against Celtic, Unai Emery’s men have continued to shine on home soil.
Getting the New Year underway with a 2-1 victory against local rivals Leicester, the one-time Arsenal boss has not seen his squad suffer a single defeat in the Midlands from any of their previous 11 consecutive outings.
With that purple patch stemming all the way back to the end of October, Emery’s side have also notched at least a pair of goals in six of their last seven home fixtures across all competitions.
However, it should be noted, Aston Villa have recorded just a single domestic clean sheet in front of their own supporters since way back on October 6th.
Although Ipswich might have gained plenty of plaudits since making their iconic Premier League return this season, Saturday’s guests have a real battle on their hands in the race to keep hold of their top-flight status.
Last seen in Premier League action falling to what could be a season-defining 2-1 loss at home against fellow relegation scrappers Southampton, Kieran McKenna’s side have lost all of their last four top-flight appearances by an aggregate score of 14-2.
Getting this weekend’s fixtures underway sat three points adrift in the drop zone, the Blues have also gained a reputation for their glaring defensive issues.
Signing off January with a 4-1 drumming away at runaway leaders Liverpool, Ipswich have already conceded 49 Premier League strikes this season and will face another stern challenge here.
Tip: Aston Villa win & Both teams to score @ 2/1
15:00 Fulham vs Nottingham Forest
While Nottingham Forest might have spent the whole of last season looking over their shoulder at a looming relegation scrap, Nuno Espirito Santo’s side have only continued to underlined their status as Europe’s ultimate surprise package.
Breaking a string of records this season and riding what has been a famous wave of momentum, the former Wolves boss finds the mood in his camp at a red-hot high.
Making an immediate return to winning ways on February 1st as they claimed a remarkable 7-0 romp at home against Brighton, Saturday’s guests are sat in the driving seat to punch a Champions League ticket in 2025.
Currently sat in bronze medal position, Nottingham Forest have continued to gain a fearsome reputation from across the continent.
Proving that their infamous 5-0 drumming against Bournemouth last month was nothing more than a minor blip, that is the only defeat that they have suffered since the start of December.
Mounting a shock comeback away at Newcastle earlier in the month as they left St. James’ Park with a 2-1 victory, Fulham have enjoyed an impressive campaign at Craven Cottage.
Getting Saturday’s fixtures underway battling it out in the top-half of the Premier League table, Marco Silva’s men are still dreaming of the chance to mount a late European charge.
Despite suffering an action-packed 3-2 defeat away at West Ham on January 14th, the Cottagers have won three of their previous four appearances across all competitions.
Suffering just a pair of defeats since a 4-1 drumming against Wolves on November 23rd, Silva’s side will certainly ask some real questions in west London.
