The three top teams in the Premier League are in action on Saturday and all three are favored in sports betting.Chelsea is home against Stoke, Manchester United hosts West Ham while Arsenal is at Blackburn. The Blues have been very impressive so far this season as they have won their two games by a combined score of 12-0. They are heavily favored in sports betting online odds on Saturday to dispose of Stoke City.
Sports betting odds also favor Manchester United and Arsenal in their two games. The game between Arsenal and Blackburn will be televised on ESPN 2 so it should get some added attention. It is also the first game on the board for Saturday.
Arsenal vs. Blackburn: Arsenal was very impressive last week in a 6-0 rout of Blackpool. Arsenal is led by Theo Walcott who had a hat trick in the win. Arsenal is on the road but they do have the edge in rest as Blackburn had to play a Carling Cup match earlier this week. Blackburn has not had much success against Arsenal as they have just one win in the last five matches. They did beat Arsenal at home last season though by a score of 2-1.
Even with that win, Blackburn has been outscored by Arsenal 17-3 in the last six games.
Stoke City at Chelsea: The only thing that should happen on Saturday is a Chelsea rout. The Blues have looked great so far winning their first two matches by identical 6-0 scores and now they could get Brazilian midfielder Ramires into the lineup on Saturday. Chelsea probably won’t win 6-0 again on Saturday but they should have little trouble with Stoke.
West Ham at Manchester United: On paper this match looks like a rout similar to the Stoke-Chelsea match. West Ham has not looked good at all this season with two losses. They could easily start the season with four straight losses as Chelsea is up next.
Also on the board at Sbg global in the Premier League for Saturday it is Fulham at Blackpool, Wigan at Tottenham and Newcastle at Wolverhampton. Sunday’s matches have Birmingham at Bolton, West Brom at Liverpool, Manchester City at Sunderland and Everton at Aston Villa.
