Ahead of a mouth-watering Premier League fixtures list, what should football spread betting fans be keeping an eye on this weekend? It’s the Spread Bets of the Day!

What are the odds on Everton beating Liverpool?
In the biggest Merseyside derby for years, Everton – one of only 2 unbeaten teams this season – host defending champions Liverpool this Saturday, at 12.30pm on BT Sport 1.

Though they’re top of the table, it can be argued that the Toffees haven’t been truly tested since their 1-0 win over Spurs. And while they’ve scored 24 goals in 7 games across the league and FA Cup, they only have 2 clean sheets to their name.

Liverpool, however, are coming off their worst defeat under Jurgen Klopp, even if they’ve had the international break to compose themselves. They’re also still favourites for the title. What are the odds on Liverpool winning the league? The Reds are at a leading Season Points spread of 83-84.5 and fixed odds of 11/8.

The visitors are the favourites on Saturday, at a Liverpool/Everton (h) Goal Supremacy spread of 0.65-0.85, alongside a Total Goals spread of 3.15-3.35, and a Total Goal Minutes spread of 159-174.

As for fixed odds, Everton are at 3/1 to win the game, compared to the Reds odds on at 4/5. Is that unfair on the blue half of the city? Perhaps not – in a quirk of fate, Saturday marks the 10-year anniversary, to the day, that Everton last beat Liverpool.

When was the last time Arsenal beat Man City in the Premier League?
It’s student versus master on Saturday, as Arsenal chase their first league win over Man City since December 2015 when the pair meet at 5.30pm on Sky Sports Premier League.

Twice has Mikel Arteta met former boss Pep Guardiola as Gunners manager, losing 3-0 in June before winning 2-0 in the FA Cup a month later.

Arteta will be going against a City side far from their best, coming off a loss to Leicester and a draw at Leeds. And though Raheem Sterling should appear, Kevin De Bruyne is a doubt. As for Arsenal, they could see the debut of Thomas Partey in midfield.

It seems that history is counting for more than present form, with SpreadEX offering a one-sided Man City/Arsenal Goal Supremacy spread of 1.15-1.35. That’s with a Total Goals spread of 3.35-3.55 and a promising Total Goal Minutes spread of 168-183.

And what are the odds on Man City winning the title? Like Liverpool, recent wobbles haven’t harmed their chances too much. They’re at a Season Points spread of 82.5-84 – Arsenal, in comparison, are at 64-65.5 – and a fixed odds price of 7/5.

What are the odds on Man United finishing in the top 4?
Needing to pull themselves together after their 6-1 loss to Tottenham, Man United travel to Newcastle this Saturday at 8pm on Sky Sports Box Office.

United’s hopes of a top 5 finish have been dealt a real blow, with the club now at a Finishing Positions spread of 5.6-6.6 – behind Chelsea, Arsenal and Tottenham – and a Season Points spread of 63.5-65.

Newcastle have had a middling time of it, with wins over West Ham and Burnley, a loss to Brighton and a draw at Spurs. They could be on the wrong side of the scoreline this weekend – SpreadEX are offering a Man United/Newcastle (h) Goal Supremacy spread of 0.75-0.95.

Will Gareth Bale play against West Ham?
With Gareth Bale potentially set to re-debut, Tottenham take on West Ham in a Sunday London derby, at 4.30pm on Sky Sports Premier League.

After that gargantuan win over Man United, Spurs will be feeling confident going into this weekend, even if West Ham have picked up 2 clean sheet wins in a row, including a 3-0 victory at Leicester.

Predictably the hosts are heavy favourites, at a Tottenham/West Ham Goal Supremacy spread of 0.9-1.1, alongside a Total Goal Minutes spread of 154-164, and a Bookings spread of 38-42.

Where will Aston Villa finish this season?
From relegation candidates to champion-beaters, Aston Villa are now looking to see-off Leicester this Sunday, at 7.15pm on Sky Sports Box Office.

With 3 wins in 3, Villa have undergone one of the biggest shifts spreads-wise, and now sit at a Finishing Positions spread of 11.5-13 and a Season Points spread of 46.5-48, compared to the 36.5-38 seen pre-season.

What are the odds on Aston Villa beating Leicester? That’s a slightly different matter, with SpreadEX offering a Leicester/Aston Villa Goal Supremacy spread of 0.5-0.7, with a Total Goals spread of 2.9-3.1.
