talkSPORT betting tips – Best football bets and expert advice for Saturday 18 January
Action from the Premier League continues to come thick and fast, with five more games from England’s top flight to look forward to on Saturday. Newcastle United will look to continue their strong run of form when they host a dangerous Bournemouth side, while Liverpool will hope to get back to winning ways when they travel to Brentford. Saturday’s selections include those two games at St James’ Park and the Gtech Community Stadium, along with the action from the Emirates, as Arsenal take on Aston Villa in the pick of Saturday’s showdowns in the Premier League. BET £10 GET £30 IN FREE BETS WITH TALKSPORT BET Bet of the day Arsenal to beat Aston Villa to nil @ 6/4 Arsenal will be looking to complete the league double over Aston Villa when they meet at the Emirates on Saturday evening. The Gunners earned a 2-0 win over Unai Emery’s side earlier this season at Villa Park, having previously lost both their league games against the Villans last term. Arsenal have been strong defensively at home in recent weeks, keeping four clean sheets in their last five Premier League outings at the Emirates, with only a deflected strike from Son Heung-min in the midweek win over Tottenham breaching Mikel Arteta’s side. Against a Villa side that have lost five of their last six away games in the league, Arsenal to win to nil gets the nod for Saturday’s Bet of the Day. Special of the day Brentford v Liverpool: Bet Builder – Liverpool to win, Mohamed Salah to score anytime & over 3.5 total goals @ 21/10 Games between Brentford and Liverpool at the Gtech Community Stadium tend to be entertaining affairs and this showdown should be no different. In the three meetings these sides have had at Brentford in the Premier League, no less than 15 goals have been scored and going for over 3.5 total goals is one-third of this Bet Builder selection. Liverpool proved too strong when these sides met at Anfield back in August, with the Reds earning a 2-0 win in the early days of Arne Slot’s tenure with the Merseyside outfit. Now far more settled under the Dutch tactician, Liverpool can earn a more convincing win over the Bees this time around, while Mohamed Salah getting on the scoresheet concludes this three-fold selection. Salah has scored in all of the last four meetings between these sides and it would be little surprise to see that scoring trend continue for the Egyptian star. Long shot of the day Newcastle United v Bournemouth: Bet Builder – Newcastle United to win, Alexander Isak to score anytime & Dan Burn to be shown a card @ 21/2 Currently on a six-game winning streak in the Premier League, it’s hard to look past in-form Newcastle beating Bournemouth at St James’ Park. Alexander Isak has been in scintillating form, scoring in all of Newcastle’s last eight Premier League games in a row, with a running tally of 11 goals in that spell after a midweek brace against Wolves. Newcastle to win and Isak to score looks to be the way to go here, while Dan Burn to be booked completes this Longshot of the Day. Only Joelinton has picked up more yellow cards for Newcastle than Burn in the Premier League this season, while the Magpies defender was also booked the last time his side faced Bournemouth earlier this term. Burn to add another yellow card to his collection catches the eye in this one.
