PREMIER LEAGUE: WEEK 26 AS IT HAPPENED

  Six Premier League games tonight...
  
  Arsenal v Man Utd 19:45
  The Gunners are 5/4 here, against a United side that have just drawn with Fulham and lost at Stoke. Yes they got spanked at Liverpool but that’s still awful generous, as is evens on them scoring 2 or more. The-1 handicap at 3/1 is the one for me though. In the any time scorers, get behind Chamberlain (11/4) or Cazorla at 2/1.
  Prediction: 2-0 (11/1)
  
  Everton v Crystal Palace 19:45
  Palace have been brilliant lately, Everton are wobbling. Not going to go as far as calling the away win but at 8/1 it’s certainly worth considering, and the double chance at 7/4 isn’t bad either. Jason Puncheon’s in good goal-scoring form so you could do worse than backing him at 4/1 anytime, but despite all that, the home win with BTTS at 3/1 is the more sensible option.
  Prediction: 2-1 (17/2)
  
  Man City v Sunderland 19:45
  City haven’t scored in either of their last two league games so under 2.5 goals (13/8) in this one might be a better bet than assuming we’re in for 4.5+ (12/5). Sunderland with a +2 handicap at 11/8 looks plausible as well. If we’re talking scorers, Adam Johnson (5/1 any time) seems like far more fun than Negredo (4/7) or Dzeko (8/13), so I’ll probably do that.
  Prediction: 2-1 (9/1)
  
  Newcastle v Tottenham 19:45
  The home side are way out at 23/10 for the win here, with Spurs the big favourites at 5/4. I’m going to sit on the fence and call it a draw, a score draw (7/2). Gouffran’s due a goal isn’t he? 11/4 anytime, but beyond that, it’ll have to be Adebayor again at 11/8.
  Prediction: 1-1 (6/1)
  
  Stoke v Swansea 19:45
  They’re both 9/5 for the win, the bookies haven’t got a clue and neither have I. Would have said Stoke before the weekend but with Garry Monk and a 3-0 win against Cardiff under their belts, Swansea look a threat again. At the risk of repeating myself, score draw? That’s yours at 18/5. Bony’s the most likely scorer and at 15/8 any time isn’t bad value either.
  Prediction: 1-1 (5/1)
  
  Fulham v Liverpool 20:00
  Liverpool love scoring, Fulham love conceding… 4.5+ match goals looks as good as nailed on and great value at 5/2, though if you’re feeling ambitious take a look at over 5.5 at 6/1. The away side with a -2 handicap looks decent too, as does Sturridge to get 2 or more himself at 16/5.
  Prediction: 1-4 (16/1)

  Like a fool I added Chelsea from yesterday to a couple of acca's and now they're totally worthless, thanks Mourinho, and your bunch of cunts...
  
  Although West Ham did win, so my final chance is if Stoke and Spurs win tonight and that will give me a nice 11/1 shot, I know that means betting against Newcastle at home, but the odds were sweet enough to take that risk...

  Russy, have you not been burnt enough by Newcastle this season?
  
  Though I've put them as a draw in my acca...
  
  They'll win, won't they?

  Gotta break the jinx with them at some time, so have my optimistic head on today.... but yeah, you're probably right, they'll win 2-1 or something...

  Emmanuel Adebayor puts Spurs 1-0 up - that'll do pig, that'll do :D

  Spurs go 1-0 up at Newcastle through Adebayor. For the sake of the acca, let's hope it finishes a draw (29/10). Alternatively, the away side are now 8/5 with a -1 handicap.
  
  And Fulham have taken an early lead against Liverpool, a Kolo Toure OG. You still have to fancy the Scousers for the win though, get in there now while its 10/11.
