5 Premier League Tips for Midweek’s Action - 18/10/22

On Tuesday night, Brighton & Hove Albion host Nottingham Forest at the Amex Stadium.

This is a clash between seventh and 20th in the table, with Steve Cooper’s men leaking 23 goals in ten matches, a defensive record that is just one goal better off than Leicester City’s, who have the worst record in the division.

Two players that will fancy this prospect are Danny Welbeck and Alexis Mac Allister, who are both having fine seasons for the Albion. Welbeck is yet to get his name on the scoresheet, but, has been integral to their play, creating three assists, whilst Mac Allister has scored four goals this season, including two in his last two home games.

Crystal Palace and Wolves face off in Tuesday night’s other match. This is a game where the Eagles will be looking to use their home advantage, as they sit one point above their opponents.

Wilfried Zaha has been Palace’s main man yet again this season, as the 29-year-old has scored four goals and created one assist in eight matches, hence why he is priced at 9/2 to score first in this fixture.

Brentford and Chelsea go head-to-head on Wednesday in what will be a tricky game for the Blues who will be looking to continue their excellent start under Graham Potter.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is the play that we have tipped here, with the former Barcelona man price at evens to have two or more shots on target. Since moving back to England from Barca in the summer, Aubameyang has managed to score three goals in six matches and will fancy his chances of getting two shots on target here.

Liverpool host West Ham United at Anfield on Wednesday and will be full of confidence having beaten Manchester City 1-0 at the weekend.

Mohamed Salah was the hero for Liverpool on Sunday against Pep Guardiola’s men and Jurgen Klopp will be hopeful that the Egyptian can get on the scoresheet again versus a West Ham side that are 12th in the table.

So far this season, Salah has scored nine and created four assists, whilst his Brazilian teammate Roberto Firmino has been in red-hot form, scoring eight and assisting four in his last 13 games. At 50/1 for these two to assist each other, this could well be worth a punt.

The final tip on this list comes from Manchester United against Tottenham Hotspur at Old Trafford in what could be an entertaining contest between two sides that are aiming to finish in the Champions League places.

United were frustrated at home by Newcastle on the weekend and should’ve won the game at the death through chances missed by Fred and Marcus Rashford, with the latter missing a header from close range. However, Rashford has been in great form this season, scoring five and creating three assists in 11 games. On top of this, the 24-year-old has scored four goals in his last seven against Spurs.

Harry Kane’s form has perhaps gone slightly under the radar due to the attention that Erling Haaland is receiving. The England captain has bagged ten times and made two assists in 14 matches this season.
