Top Picks: Man City, Blackburn (Over 2.5g), Tottenham.
Additions: Wigan.
Matches are coming in thick and fast, starting with Boxing Day. Match analysis are as follows:
1) Man City (-1/2 on AH)
Ratings: 8.5/10
Man City will be looking to bounce back after their unlucky loss to West Brom. They play host to Hull, who were thumped 1-4 by Sunderland last weekend. Despite their excellent start to the season, Hull are showing signs of slowing down and recent performances suggest that the downtrend will continue. City have not scored at home in their last 3, and Hull is leaky on their travels. Man City should edge this tie to pull themselves out of the bottom 3.
3) Blackburn (Over 2.5g)
Ratings: 8.5/10
Expect a flurry of goals as Sunderland entertains Blackburn. Both teams seems to have found their scoring boots lately, although their defense are prone to concede goals. An interesting stat, however, points to a draw for this game. Sunderland have yet to draw in their last 11 matches, while Blackburn have not drawn in their last 9. Nevertheless, going with Over 2.5 goals should be the call, and perhaps a small punt on a scoring draw (2-2 or 3-3).
3) Tottenham (-3/4 on AH)
Ratings: 8/10
Fulham have not scored and conceded in their last 3 travels, and overall have the meanest defense apart from Chelsea in the league. However, this stats should be broken against an attacking-minded Spurs. Tottenham are still not safe from relegation, and will definitely attack from the 1st minute until they secure the much needed victory. Head-to-head stats also favors the home team.
