Having recently secured a stunning **14/1 treble** victory, our betting expert, Jones Knows, is back to share his insights and predictions for the upcoming Premier League and FA Cup clashes, assuring us that the upcoming matches promise excitement and value. Here’s a closer look at his **best bets** and predictions for this weekend’s thrilling encounters.
Chelsea vs Everton – Saturday, 12.30 PM
Meet the **enigmatic duo** of Chelsea’s Cole Palmer and Nicolas Jackson, both of whom are struggling to find the back of the net. Palmer hasn’t scored in over **1200 minutes**, while Jackson’s last Premier League goal was recorded on December 1. However, an emerging star, **Pedro Neto**, is ready to light up the game. With his recent winning goal against Fulham, Neto could be a solid bet to register **a shot on target at 10/11** with Sky Bet, as he averages a shot every 35 minutes in the last 210 minutes of play.
SCORE PREDICTION: 1-1 | JONES KNOWS’ BEST BET: Pedro Neto +1 shot on target (10/11 with Sky Bet)
Brighton vs West Ham – Saturday, 3 PM PLAY SUPER 6 HERE!
Brighton can often be vulnerable against teams that are willing to let them dominate possession. In fact, they’ve only managed **three victories out of 21** when they’ve had more than **50% possession** this season. Their recent matchup with Brentford was a tactical disaster, and West Ham manager, **Graham Potter**, is sure to formulate a winning game plan. Betting **West Ham on the double chance at 5/4** or back their away win at **4/1** could deliver fabulous returns.
SCORE PREDICTION: 1-2 | JONES KNOWS’ BEST BET: West Ham to win (4/1 with Sky Bet)
Newcastle vs Ipswich – Saturday, 3 PM PLAY SUPER 6 HERE!
The clock is ticking for Ipswich as **relegation looms**. Manager **Kieran McKenna** has seen a staggering **94 changes** to the starting line-up this season. Jacob Murphy, shining this season with 17 goal involvements from his last 19 league appearances, is expected to exploit a weakened Ipswich defense. Betting on Murphy to register **an assist at 15/8** with Sky Bet is an exciting prospect.
SCORE PREDICTION: 3-1
Southampton vs Fulham – Saturday, 3 PM PLAY SUPER 6 HERE!
Southampton displayed strong attacking metrics in their last outing, dominating the shot and corner counts in a 1-1 draw with West Ham. In a game devoid of relegation pressure, they might just surprise us with a more liberated performance. The odds are favorable to back both **Kamaldeen Sulemana (9/2)** and **Mathues Fernandes (11/2)** to find the net.
SCORE PREDICTION: 2-2
**Stephy Mavididi** is also making headlines, with his **creative flair** shining through in Leicester’s recent matches. Despite a grim run of form, he’s helped rejuvenate their goal-scoring potential. You might consider betting on **both teams to score at 4/5** with Sky Bet, an enticing option given recent trends.
SCORE PREDICTION: 3-2 | JONES KNOWS’ BEST BET: Both teams to score (4/5 with Sky Bet)
Crystal Palace vs Aston Villa – FA Cup Semi-Final, Saturday, 5:15 PM
**Oliver Glasner** holds a favorable record against Unai Emery, dominating their last meetings. His tactical approach with **Ismaila Sarr** has proven effective, especially considering his contributions against Villa this season. Look for Sarr to add to his impressive tally of **goal involvements**, making **13/8** a good price for him to score or assist.
SCORE PREDICTION: 2-1
Bournemouth vs Manchester United – Sunday, 2 PM, Live on Sky Sports – PLAY SUPER 6 HERE!
Bournemouth has developed a reputation that does not align with reality; they tend to struggle to score, especially at home with a meager average of **2.1 goals per 90 minutes** over 16 matches. There’s substantial value in betting that **both teams will not score**, available at **6/5** with Sky Bet.
SCORE PREDICTION: 1-0
Liverpool vs Tottenham – Sunday, 4:30 PM, Live on Sky Sports – PLAY SUPER 6 HERE!
**Arne Slot** has revitalized Liverpool, bringing them to the brink of glory while successfully managing squad injuries—having only **37 this season** compared to Arsenal’s staggering count. Expect an unexpected outpouring of goals as Liverpool looks to dominate Tottenham, a team unlikely to park the bus. Betting on **both teams to score and over 4.5 goals at 9/4** could be a prosperous option.
SCORE PREDICTION: 5-2
Nottingham Forest vs Manchester City – FA Cup Semi-Final, Sunday, 4:30 PM
**Pep Guardiola’s** pragmatic approach has yielded five wins from six games, albeit lacking the flair that typically defines City. Against a defiant Nottingham Forest that excels defensively, consider betting on **under 2.5 goals at 10/11**, given the historical trend of low-scoring matches at Wembley.
SCORE PREDICTION: 1-1 (Nottingham Forest to win on penalties) | JONES KNOWS’ BEST BET: Under 2.5 goals (10/11 with Sky Bet)
Jones Knows’ Best Bets…
- 1pt treble: Pedro Neto +1 shot on target, both teams to score in Wolves vs Leicester & under 2.5 goals in Nottingham Forest vs Man City (6/1 with Sky Bet)
- 1pt on West Ham to beat Brighton (4/1 with Sky Bet)
P+L = +9.97
