Saturday's Free Football Betting Tips & Predictions

Saturday's Football fixtures are a huge part of the English tradition and I'm here to provide some insight and try and find the best value in selected matches.

Brentford vs Brighton

Brentford still have an outside chance of qualifying for Europe, but with just one win in their last six matches, they need to improve quickly. A battling point from behind away at Arsenal last week will certainly boost their confidence, but they are without a win at home in all competitions in 2025.

Brighton are without a win in their last four Premier League matches, but they did win six in a row in all competitions before that. The Seagulls are still in the race for European qualification, but recent results have hurt their Champions League hopes.

Brighton have the sixth-best Premier League away record, losing just five matches on the road this season. Both teams are out of form, but Brighton look the stronger team and can show their quality today and get their season back on track at the Gtech.

Crystal Palace vs Bournemouth

Crystal Palace had lost just one game in ten before back-to-back heavy defeats against Manchester City and Newcastle. Those defeats marked the first time The Eagles have conceded 5+ goals in consecutive matches across all competitions since 1935, and now look destined for another mid-table finish in the Premier League.

Bournemouth have also suffered a dip in form lately, and before their 1-0 victory against Fulham on Monday, Andoni Iraola's men were winless in six. The Cherries sit 8th in the Premier League table, and with a good finish to the season, they could secure a form of European football for next year.

The Cherries have avoided defeat in 12 of their 16 away matches so far this season and look likely to do that again at Selhurst Park this afternoon.

Everton vs Manchester City

Everton have been rejuvenated after David Moyes rejoined The Toffees for a second spell in charge, and they're currently on a run of just two defeats in 13.

Only five teams have accumulated more points than Everton since Moyes's return, and they registered an impressive 1-0 win away at Champions League-chasing Nottingham Forest last time out.

Manchester City are under huge pressure in their quest for Champions League football, but they've improved lately with just one defeat in their last eight in all competitions.

Victories and goals have been sparse on the road for the Citizens, though, and they've failed to score in two of their last three away matches.

City have won just 6 games on the road this season, whilst Everton have drawn 8 from 16 at Goodison Park, and a draw here looks the most likely outcome.

West Ham vs Southampton

West Ham start the day 17th in the Premier League table, their worst position at this stage of a campaign since 2010/11.

Graham Potter has failed to get anything going with this squad, and only the bottom three have accumulated fewer points since his appointment in January. A 2-1 defeat against Liverpool saw The Hammers lose their 15th match of the season and are winless in their last five.

Southampton became the earliest team in Premier League history to confirm their relegation, and Simon Rusk's men are still battling to avoid becoming the team with the lowest points tally in Premier League history. An 81% loss rate is the lowest in top-flight history, and they've simply been outclassed in this campaign.

13 of Southampton's last 14 matches have been over 2.5 goals, and even though West Ham scored just 30 goals this term, Jarrod Bowen should be able to breach this leaky defence at ease.

Aston Villa vs Newcastle United

Aston Villa have lost just two of their last 15 matches in all competitions and showed their quality in a 3-2 midweek Champions League victory over PSG.

hey lost on aggregate 5-4, but they should take huge confidence going into the last few games of the Premier League campaign in their pursuit of a return to European football. Unai Emery's men have won 9 of their last 10 matches and are unbeaten in their last 15 home league matches.

Newcastle won 5-0 in midweek against Crystal Palace to register their biggest win of the season and extended the gap to five points too sixth place.

The Magpies have won five Premier League matches in a row to boost their Champions League qualification hopes, but they've lost four of their previous five visits to Villa Park.

This is a huge match in the Champions League qualification race, but Villa have a big advantage with their record at home, and after beating PSG midweek, they will be full of confidence for this.
