EPL Best Bets Matchweek 12: Premier League Predictions & Bet Picks

As we enter Matchweek 12 in the Premier League, Arsenal have opened up a four-point lead at the top of the table over Manchester City after Liverpool defeated the Sky Blues 1-0 over the weekend.

The top four is now occupied by the Gunners, Manchester City, Tottenham, and Chelsea. Meanwhile, Manchester United and Newcastle fill out the top six, with Brighton falling behind by one point.

Southampton, Forest, and Leicester City currently sit in the relegation zone, having collected just one win between them in the previous five matches.

So, how will things shake out during Matchweek 11? Let’s look at current betting odds to find our favorite best bets in the Premier League.

Matthew Williams' 2022-23 EPL Betting Record: 37-21 (+32.1 units)

Brighton vs Nottingham Forest Best Bet

➕ Brighton Wins & Over 2.5 Goals (+110) at BetMGM

WAGER: 1 Unit

I expect Brighton to pull out a victory at home against Forest, but the Seagulls have yet to maintain a clean sheet since the departure of Graham Potter.

Roberto De Zerbi’s side still have the edge against Forest, who have conceded 23 goals this season (second most in EPL), even though Brighton have failed to score in their previous two matches against Tottenham and Brentford.

Back the Seagulls to win with a total score Over 2.5.

Crystal Palace vs Wolverhampton Best Bet

➕ Crystal Palace Wins & Under 2.5 Goals (+310) at BetMGM

WAGER: 1 Unit

Other than the electric Wilfried Zaha, this is likely to be a somewhat boring game.

Neither side has been very effective on the offensive side of the ball, with Wolves having collected just four goals in the Premier League this season (lowest in EPL).

I like Palace to win at home but in a very low-scoring affair.

Bournemouth vs Southampton United Best Bet

➕ Both Teams to Score (-130) at BetMGM

WAGER: 1 Unit

Two early-season favorites to be relegated will square off as Bournemouth host Southampton.

The Saints are fresh off a 1-1 draw with West Ham, breaking a four-match losing streak, while the Cherries are undefeated in their last five contests.

Between the two sides, 40 goals have been conceded, so it is reasonable to expect each team to find the back of the net.
