Chelsea vs Arsenal Best Bet
Wednesday, 20th April, 19:45 (UK Time)
Chelsea host Arsenal for a crucial London Derby. The Blues won the previous match back in August and are aiming to complete their first domestic double over the Gunners since 2015-16. Eight points separate them in the table as the Blues aim to secure 3rd and Arsenal chase 4th. They’ll draw level on points with Tottenham if they win this one.
Thomas Tuchel’s men have struggled at home of late. They’ve lost their last two at Stamford Bridge for the first time all season. They haven’t lost three home matches in a row since 1993.
The Gunners have also been off form. It’s three straight defeats for Arsenal in the Premier League. Four losses in five. It’s their worst run of form since November 2020. It’s the third occasion that Arsenal have lost three consecutive leaguer matches under Mikel Arteta. They haven’t lost four league games in a row since March 1995.
I don’t think they’ll lose here. The Gunners have a habit of pulling off surprise results against the Blues, especially in bigger matches. They’ve only lost one of their last five competitive matches against Chelsea. They look good plus half a goal on the Asian line.
- Selection: Arsenal +0.5 (AH)
- Odds: 2.07 (bet365)
- Stakes: 5/10
Newcastle vs Crystal Palace Best Bet
Wednesday, 20th April, 19:45 (UK Time)
Newcastle host Crystal Palace on Wednesday night. Many had expected this match to have a big impact on the relegation battle. Instead, this appears to be a contest between two teams competing for a place in the top half. The sides are level on 37 points, three behind Brighton in 10th. Goal difference counts against the Magpies but they certainly have a chance.
Newcastle have won eight of their last 12 Premier League matches. That’s as many as they won in the 47 top flight fixtures before then. It’s a remarkable run of form for Eddie Howe’s men.
But this will be a big test for them. Newcastle have lost three of their last six league matches against Crystal Palace, as many as they lost in the 24 before then. The Eagles won this match last season and are in good form. They’ve only lost one of their last six Premier League away matches. I expect them to get something here.
- Selection: Crystal Palace +0.25 (AH)
- Odds: 1.88 (bet365)
- Stakes: 7/10

Everton vs Leicester Best Bet
Wednesday, 20th April, 19:45 (UK Time)
Everton vs Leicester is a big match for the hosts. The Toffees are just three points above the bottom 3 and face the prospect of their first relegation since for over 70 years.
They face an in-form Leicester side. The Foxes have won four of their last seven in the Premier League. That’s more than they won in the 14 fixtures before then. They have, however, struggled on the road. They’ve lost six of their last eight away games in the Premier League.
Everton will be glad to get back to Goodison Park. Everton have won three of their last five home matches in the league. They’ve only won once on the road all season. Everton have earned 79% of their Premier league points at home. That’s the highest percentage of any side in the top flight.
I think they’ll continue that decent home record here. It’s a winnable match for Frank Lampard’s men and I think they’ll get something out of it. The value is with them.
- Selection: Everton to Win
- Odds: 2.35 (10Bet)
- Stakes: 7/10

Manchester City vs Brighton Best Bet
Wednesday, 20th April, 20:00 (UK Time)
The later kick-off this Wednesday sees title-chasing Manchester City host Brighton. A lot has been made of Liverpool’s potential quadruple but Manchester City are still the favourites for a remarkable double. They lead the Reds by a point and can’t afford any slip-ups here.
They host an in-form Brighton side. Few would have expected the Seagulls to get anything from their last two matches. They’ve travelled to Arsenal and Tottenham and won both matches in the last week. They now face a third consecutive away match against a top 6 side with aspirations for another upset.
The bookies have given them two whole goals on the Asian Lines market. That feels a little generous given Manchester City’s recent blip. They’ve only won two of their last 12 Premier League matches by more than two goals. One of them was away at bottom-side Norwich back in February. With the matches coming thick and fast for Manchester City, my approach here is to hope for a slow-paced game and few goals. Two whole goals is difficult to turn down.
- Selection: Brighton +2 (AH)
- Odds: 1.90 (bet365)
- Stakes: 6/10

WHAT IS A PREMIER LEAGUE ACCA?
A Premier League acca is an accumulator bet, a type of bet that consists of several selections across different matches that are combined together into one single bet. An acca usually. consists of at least four selections but many more can be included. There will be odds for the single bet as a whole which is calculated by multiplying the odds of all of the selections. A Premier League acca is one of the most popular ways to bet. This is the case because they can create potentially massive odds for a small stake. Many punters choose to create Premier League accas which is what we have created here. If one of these selections loses then the Premier League acca will lose. This type of bet needs every selection to win in order to succeed.
