From Chelsea at Burnley to Arsenal hosting Spurs, here are the strongest Premier League betting selections for Gameweek 12’s action.
This weekend’s fixtures arrives with Arsenal clear at the top on 26 points and Wolves in deep trouble with just two points from 11 matches. With momentum and form diverging across the table, here are the smartest angles for punters.
Burnley vs Chelsea – Chelsea win @ 1.52
Chelsea’s improvement under Enzo Maresca has been decisive. They sit third with 20 points and have won four of their last five league matches. Burnley, by contrast, are 17th, with one of the league’s weakest defensive records and three defeats in their last four. Chelsea’s midfield control and wider squad depth make the away win a strong anchor selection for multis, but also keep Burnley’s resilient home record under Scott Parker in mind.
Bournemouth vs West Ham – Bournemouth win @ 1.64
Bournemouth’s rise under Andoni Iraola continues. They are 9th, highly efficient at home, and come into this round with just three losses in 11. West Ham sit 18th with seven defeats already and have struggled badly away from home. Bournemouth’s pressing style should force errors, making the hosts a solid single.
Brighton vs Brentford – BTTS Yes @ 1.62
Brighton (11th) remain one of the league’s highest-shot teams, but also concede regularly. Brentford (12th) are similarly open, scoring 17 and conceding 17 in their 11 games. Both managers favour front-foot structures, and the matchup profiles strongly for goals at both ends.
Fulham vs Sunderland – Sunderland double chance (Win/Draw) @ 1.71
Fulham sit 15th with six losses, while Sunderland are the season’s surprise package in 4th, losing only twice. Régis Le Bris’ side are disciplined away from home and defend transitions well. Fulham have scored only 11 goals in 11 matches, suggesting Sunderland can avoid defeat. (BTTS Yes @ 1.92 also aligns statistically.)
Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest – Liverpool win + Over 2.5 Goals @2.21
Liverpool’s campaign under Arne Slot has been volatile, but they remain extremely strong at Anfield. Forest are 19th and concede too frequently, especially away. With Liverpool producing high shot volume and Forest fighting relegation form, combining the home win with Over 2.5 suits this matchup.

Newcastle United vs Manchester City – BTTS Yes @ 1.61
Newcastle have dropped to 14th, but continue to score consistently at home. City, now second after an impressive 3-0 win against Liverpool, have rediscovered rhythm under Guardiola. Both sides possess attacking weapons and defensive gaps, making BTTS the clearest angle.
Leeds vs Aston Villa – Villa win @ 2.44
Leeds (16th) have lost six already and remain inconsistent. Aston Villa sit 6th, with stronger attacking numbers and more stability. Villa’s pace in wide areas should trouble Leeds’ back line at Elland Road.
Arsenal vs Spurs – Arsenal win @ 1.42
Arsenal lead the league with only one defeat and remain the most consistent defensive unit. Spurs (5th) are strong but have been fragile in big games this season. Arsenal at home, with superior midfield balance, remains the most reliable call of the weekend despite Spurs formidable form away from home.

Man United vs Everton – United win @ 1.75
United (7th) are unbeaten in their last four and have tightened up defensively. Everton (13th) remain unpredictable and leak goals under pressure. United’s attacking structure has improved, and at Old Trafford, they remain a trustworthy selection.
The takeaway
Chelsea, Bournemouth, Arsenal and Manchester City/Newcastle BTTS shape the round. Sunderland’s away form makes their double chance an excellent addition, while Villa remain one of the weekend’s high-value options.
