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.

Brighton vs West Ham

Brighton have a chance of claiming 8th place and a spot in Europe, but will need to improve, especially with tough fixtures ahead. The seagulls have conceded 11 goals in their last four Premier League fixtures, and they'll need to eradicate that to stop this poor run of form.

West Ham have been very inconsistent this season and have lost 15 matches in the Premier League. The Hammers are languishing down in 17th place in the table but have been competitive lately with three draws and three defeats by just a single goal.

Both these sides are winless in their last six matches, and with Brighton struggling with injuries at the moment, I think a draw looks most likely here.

Newcastle United vs Ipswich Town

Newcastle's return to Champions League football was dented last week after a 4-1 defeat to fellow hopefuls Aston Villa. The Magpies had won six consecutive matches in all competitions before that loss and have won their last four matches at St James' Park, scoring 4+ in two of them.

Ipswich look destined for the drop and will be relegated if they fail to win here, and even with a win, they could still be relegated if West Ham get a point at Brighton.

The Tractor Boys have shown glimpses this season but ultimately have been outclassed, highlighted by their 4-0 defeat to Arsenal last week.

Newcastle have been involved in matches with four or more goals in their last three Premier League fixtures, whilst Ipswich have been involved in over 3.5 goals in three of their last five.

Southampton vs Fulham

Southampton scored a 93rd-minute equaliser last week against West Ham to move onto 11 points, level with Derby as the lowest points haul in Premier League history. Having already suffered the earliest Premier League relegation in history, they'll be desperate to pick up a point to avoid more embarrassment.

The Saints have won only one match at home this season, and that came in November last year. Another loss today would make them just the fifth team in Premier League history to lose 14 or more matches at home.

Fulham were in a fabulous position to qualify for European football a month ago, but after suffering three defeats in their last four league matches, they find themselves in a battle.

Marco Silva's side beat Liverpool 3-2 at the start of April and will have to take confidence from that result into their visit to St Mary's today.

Southampton have been the whipping boys all season, and even with Fulham struggling for form, I can't see anything past another home defeat for The Saints.

Wolves vs Leicester

Vitor Pereira's Wolves are the in-form side in the Premier League after winning their last five matches, including a brilliant 1-0 win at Old Trafford last week.

A win today would be the first time Wolves have won six consecutive top-flight matches since 1970, and they have a great chance to do it against struggling Leicester City.

In a week where Leicester were officially relegated from the Premier League, they suffered more disappointment with the announcement that their greatest ever player, Jamie Vardy, is leaving at the end of the season.

The Foxes have kept just one clean sheet this season, conceded in their last 26 matches, and have conceded 71 goals in the league this season at an average of 2.2 per game

Wolves won the reverse fixture 3-0 at the King Power and will be in a buoyant mood after winning five in a row, and they should breach this defence with ease.

Oxford vs Sunderland

Oxford can clinch Championship safety with a victory at home today against Sunderland. Three defeats in their last seven have moved them away from the relegation zone, and 1-0 victories over Sheffield United and Watford at the Kassam Stadium over the last few weeks will give them massive confidence coming into this.

Sunderland have lost three matches on the trot in the Championship, but the Black Cats are already assured of a playoff place.

They look as though they've taken their foot off the gas, and that could lead to more trouble at relegation-threatened Oxford, who could show more desire to win this contest.
