Wolves v Burnley

Sun 20th Dec, 1.30pm live on Sky Sports 1
Ref: M.Atkinson

This is a big match between 2 of the teams promoted to the Premier
League last season - and fighting to stay up. The Corners and Goal
Time stats highlight 2 opportunities...

Corners

• Wolves have won the Most Corners in 6 out of 8 home games
  (75%) - the other 2 games were Corner 'ties'

• Burnley have won the Most Corners in 3 out of 8 away games

Wolves have won the Most Corners in 4 of their last 5 home games
(the game where they didn't win the Most Corners was v Arsenal - 4
corners each). And Wolves are averaging 2 corners more than
opponents per home game.

• Also available - this game is live on Sky Sports so several
  bookies will be offering Corner Handicap bets. Check with William
  Hill, Paddy Power, Stan James, Skybet, Betfred, Expekt and
  Boylesports over the weekend.

First Goal Time

Both teams have a good 'early Goal' record. The First Goal has been
scored in the 28th Minute or Before in 14 out of 17 Wolves games
this season (82%). That includes 7 out of 8 games at Molineux
(87.5%). And the average First Goal Time in Wolves home games is 24
minutes.

The First Goal has also come in the 28th Min or Before in 70% of
Burnley games. That includes 6 out of 8 away games (75%). The
average First Goal Time in Burnley away games is 27 minutes.

In the midweek games, Wolves went a goal behind in the 30th minute
and Burnley let in a goal in the 7th minute.

West Ham v Chelsea

Sun 20th Dec, 4pm live on Sky Sports 1
Ref: M.Dean

Chelsea are short odds-on for an away win here. They've won 4 of
their last 6 Premier League games - West Ham have lost 4 of their
last 6 games.

Goals

Bets on Over 2.5 Goals have paid out a winner in 76% of all West Ham
games and 82% of all Chelsea Premier League games this season. The
home v away figures are even higher.

• 100% of West Ham home games have been Over 2.5 Goals (8 out of
  8 games)

• 87.5% of Chelsea away games have also been Over 2.5 Goals (7
  out of 8)

• West Ham home games are averaging 4.3 Total Goals per game.
  Chelsea's away total is 3.2 goals.

There were 4 goals in West Ham's midweek game (lost 3-1 away) and 3
goals in the Chelsea game (won 2-1 at home).

Corners

• West Ham home Corner averages = 4.5 For and 7.1 Against

• Chelsea away Corner averages = 8.6 For and 5.0 Against

West Ham are conceding on average over 2 corners more than they win
per home game - and have only won the Most Corners in 2 out of 8
games at Upton Park (25%).

Chelsea's figures are pretty much the opposite. They have won the
Most Corners in 70% of their Premier League games this season.
They're winning 3+ corners more than opponents per away game and
have won the Most Corners in 6 out of 8 away games (75%).

• Also available - this game is live on Sky Sports so several
  bookies will be offering Corner Handicap bets. Check with William
  Hill, Paddy Power, Stan James, Skybet, Betfred, Expekt and
  Boylesports over the weekend.
  

Man City v Sunderland

Sat 19th Dec, 3pm
Ref: A.Marriner

The data points to 2 bets in this game...

Corners

• 100% of Man City home games - and 14 out of 16 games overall
  have paid out on Over 10.5 Corners bets

• There have also been 11 or more corners in the majority of
  Sunderland games - including 62.5% of away games

Games at the City of Manchester Stadium are averaging 13.4 Total
Corners. The figure for Sunderland away games is 12.5.

There were 15 corners in the last Man City home game and 12 corners
in Sunderland's last away game. There were also 15 corners in this
fixture last season.

• Also available - check for Total Corners bets with William
  Hill, Bet365, Coral, Stan James, Partybets and Extrabet.

Booking Points

• Man City home Booking Points averages = 10.0 For and 25.7
  Against

• Sunderland away Booking Points averages = 24.4 For and 11.3
  Against

Man City have only got the Most Booking Points in 1 of their 7 home
games so far.  While Sunderland have got the Most Bookings 6 times
out of 8 away from home (75%).

In this fixture last season Sunderland got a whopping 45 Booking
Points more than Man City.

Sunderland have got the Most Booking Points in their last 3 away
games. And the away team has picked up the Most Bookings in the last
4 Man City home games in a row.

Arsenal v Hull

Sat 19th Dec, 5.30pm live on ESPN
Ref: S.Bennett

Hull beat Arsenal 2-1 in this game last season, pulling off one of
the biggest shocks in Premier League history. A repeat score-line
this weekend is a 50/1 shot. The Corners stats point to a bet more
likely to pay out...

• Arsenal have won the Most Corners in 100% of home games - and
  in 14 out of 16 games overall (87.5%)

• Hull have been 'out-cornered' in 7 out of 8 away games so far
  (87.5%)

Arsenal's home average Corner margin is +4.3 Corners. That's a
strong margin, but Hull's away margin is even bigger - they concede
on average 6.0 corners more than they win.

Arsenal went corner crazy in that famous game last season, winning a
massive 11 corners more than Hull (15-4).

This weekend '-5 Corner Handicap' bets will pay out on Arsenal if
they win 6 or more corners more than Hull. Placing that bet on the
home team would've paid out a winner in 6 out of 8 Hull away games.

Wigan play Bolton live on ESPN on Monday night. I'll write to you on
Monday with a look at the stats for that one - and all our results
from the weekend.

Best wishes,
