Odds as of September 30th at DraftKings.

Manchester United vs Everton Prediction

The Red Devils will be looking to get back into form domestically when Everton visits Old Trafford on Saturday. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side suffered a 1-0 defeat to Aston Villa last weekend on home soil, with Kortney Hause’s 88th minute proving to be the difference-maker.

United was toothless in the final third and it looked like that would continue mid-week in the Champions League. They went down by a goal early in the second half to Villarreal before Alex Telles equalized with a beautiful strike from distance. Ultimately, none other than Cristiano Ronaldo rescued Man United with a fine finish in the 95th minute of injury time to get the side back on winning terms ahead of Saturday.

The Toffees have enjoyed a very solid start to the campaign, possessing an identical record to United at 4-1-1. While Rafa Benitez’s men did comfortably beat Norwich City on Matchday 6, Everton did lose back-to-back games prior to Queens Park in the League Cup and Villa in PL action. They’ve also won just once in their previous 12 meetings with the Red Devils.

Given United’s success against Everton in recent memory (W6, 5D, 1L), I have to take them here. However, the visitors will put up a respectable fight on the road.

Pick: Manchester United to Win by 1 (+205)

Brighton vs Arsenal Prediction

A Brighton side who has surprised everybody to this point takes on Arsenal, who have been rejuvenated over the last few weeks. The Seagulls are 4-1-1 as well and are one of the five teams who have 13 points. While Graham Potter’s squad hasn’t played any big six clubs quite yet, they’ve shown very well. On Matchday six, Brighton was on the brink of a defeat before Neil Maupay salvaged a point against Crystal Palace with a 95th-minute equalizer.

Goals have been scarce for the South Coast outfit, however, scoring just eight times. But, their backline has been rock solid, conceding five goals. As for Saturday’s encounter, they lost both times to Arsenal last term, despite going on a five-match unbeaten run against the Gunners prior to 2020-21.

Arsenal looked absolutely lifeless through their first three games of the campaign, losing to Brentford, Chelsea, and Man City. However, Mikel Arteta’s side has responded with a bang, winning four straight competitive matches since. They ran riot on Tottenham in the North London derby last Sunday in a 3-1 victory, with Emile Smith-Rowe, Bukayo Saka, and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang all finding the back of the net in the first half.

There’s simply just a sense of belief right now with this club. Arsenal fully controlled the pace of the Spurs clash and actually looked like a proper side for once. Having enjoyed success against Brighton last season on both occasions, the Gunners will have the utmost confidence here.

I really like how the visitors are playing football. I fully expect them to roll into the Amex and grab another crucial three points on Premier League Matchday 7 as they continue to soar up the table.

Pick: Arsenal +155

Tottenham vs Aston Villa Prediction

Spurs will be looking to bounce back from their derby defeat as Aston Villa visit North London. Nuno Espirito Santo’s men pulled off three straight wins to begin the season all by 1-0 scorelines but since, they’ve lost three consecutive, conceding nine goals during that span and netting just once.

The Gunners frankly outclassed them on Matchday 6 and once again Harry Kane was nowhere to be seen in the final third. The Englishman has yet to score or provide an assist thus far in league play. However, he did net a hat-trick in the Conference League on Thursday, but their opponent was Slovenian club NS Mura. Hopefully, that performance could give Kane some much-needed confidence ahead of this weekend.

Villa has been adjusting to life without Jack Grealish just fine, going 3-1-2 which puts them eighth in the Premier League table. Their 1-0 victory over Man United on Matchday 6 was an absolute thrill, giving them back-to-back league wins after beating Everton by three goals on September 18th. Danny Ings has proven to be a valuable addition to the side, already bagging two goals and tallying two assists for Dean Smith.

The Lions beat Spurs in North London last May and although they’ve lost 10 of the previous 12 games against the Lilywhites, Villa is in fine form right now. Beating United is a massive feather in the cap and that momentum will carry into Sunday’s Premier League Matchday 7 game.

Pick: Aston Villa +245
