Watching the likes of Liverpool turn their attention back to Premier League duties this weekend, Sunday promises a string of heavyweight affairs from across the continent.
So, for those of you looking to stick on a Sunday accumulator, we have found a trio of intriguing betting markets that are worth keeping an eye out for.
Sunday, November 5th
BST 14:00 Nottingham Forest vs Aston Villa
Making real history last season as they claimed a Europa Conference League ticket, Aston Villa are certainly riding an extended wave of momentum. Last seen putting in another rampant performance as they cruised their way to a 3-1 victory against relegation scrappers Luton, Unai Emery’s side find the mood in their camp at a red-hot high. With some around the Midlands starting to believe that their side could mount a genuine Champions League charge this time around, the one-time Arsenal boss has seen his high-flying squad muster 16 points from their previous six appearances across all formats. Marking their return from October’s international break with a stellar 4-1 romp against West Ham, Aston Villa should be smelling the chance to make another statement here. Gaining a reputation for their free-scoring performances in the final third, Emery’s side should be relishing a trip to the City Ground on Sunday afternoon. While Nottingham Forest might have eventually cruised their way to Premier League safety last season, it appears there is mounting pressure on Steve Cooper’s shoulders. Last seen getting hit with a routine 3-0 drumming away at Liverpool, the former Swansea boss finds his squad in the midst of a six-match Premier League winless run. Likewise, suffering a 2-0 defeat when they last met Aston Villa back on April 8th, we are expecting a similar outcome here.
Tip: Aston Villa win Over 1.5 goals @ 5/4
16:30 Luton vs Liverpool
While Liverpool might have been left hugely frustrated last season as they missed out on booking a crucial Champions League spot, Jurgen Klopp’s side have come roaring back this time around. Last seen earlier in the week extending on their EFL Cup adventure as they secured a 2-1 victory away at Bournemouth, Sunday’s guests have won each of their previous four appearances across all competitions. Breezing their way to the Europa League knockout stage this year, the former Borussia Dortmund boss has seen his superstar squad gain a string of plaudits. Bagging 12 strikes on their four-match winning run, the Reds have also suffered just a single defeat since opening up the new campaign. Tipped as a leading contender to claim a top-four return this season, Liverpool should be hugely excited by a trip to Kenilworth Road this weekend. With their recent purple patch underlined by a 3-0 victory against Nottingham Forest last week, Luton will certainly be bracing themselves for a monumental challenge here. While the Hatters might have shocked many as they secured a maiden Premier League campaign for this season, Rob Edwards’ side know that they face a real uphill battle to keep hold of their top-flight status. Last seen getting hit with a routine 3-1 loss away at Aston Villa, the ex-Watford boss has seen his squad muster just a single point from their previous four Premier League appearances.
Tip: Liverpool to score in both halves @ 6/5
17:00 Roma vs Leece
Watching their extended flurry come to an abrupt end away at Inter Milan earlier in the week as they eventually fell to a 1-0 defeat, Roma will be seeking an immediate response here. Nevertheless, winning each of their other five previous appearances across all competitions, Jose Moruinho’s men have certainly impressed on either side of October’s international break. In the midst of a real Europa League romp and cruising their way to the knockout stage, Sunday’s hosts will certainly be smelling a golden chance at the Stadio Olimpico. With their sights firmly set on mounting a genuine top-four charge this season, the former Manchester United boss will be excited by his side’s continued success on home soil. In fact, Roma have won each of their last five showdowns in front of their own supporters by an aggregate score of 16-0. With that hometown purple patch stemming all the way back to September 1st, Roma will be looking to cash in on a Leece squad that are enduring a real Serie A struggle. Last seen earlier in the week crashing out of the Coppa Italia following an action-packed 4-2 defeat at home against Parma, the Wolves are without a win from any of their previous six appearances across all competitions. Likewise, losing each of their previous seven straight trips to the Stadio Olimpico, we are expecting a similar outcome on Sunday evening.
Tip: Roma win @ 4/7
