Each week this season our
football betting analyst
Nathan Joyes will be highlighting five market movers that have caught his attention. Are they worth backing or are they a trap? Let’s dive into five games and whether they are a bet in the new
betting prices
at BetMGM.
Spurs vs Aston Villa
Once again Spurs are being supported to not only get their first Premier League goal of the season but also three points. Roberto De Zerbi's side were well backed last weekend to beat Everton but failed in a 0-0 draw, but will it be a similar story this time round?
Punters don't believe that to be the case, as Spurs line up against an Aston Villa side that is also yet to win this season in the Premier League. After beating Club Brugge 3-2 away from home in the Champions League, Villa had hoped their fortune was going to change, but they returned home and fell to a 2-1 defeat against Nottingham Forest.
To make matters worse, Villa only had seven shots compared to Forest's 22 - they will need to drastically improve on that performance to win in the capital. And bettors don't believe they will. Spurs have yet to show anything meaningful this season - across all competitions - but they have been backed in once more to turn their form around.
Odds: Spurs to win was 13/10 now 1/1
Brighton vs Arsenal
Despite Brighton's excellent 5-0 win over Coventry and 3-2 come back against Man United midweek in the EFL Cup, it's the visitors that are being supported to keep up their magnificent early season form.
There's no real surprise to see Arsenal shorten to 7/10 with BetMGM this weekend. Mikel Arteta's side are six wins from six across all competitions, heading into this clash on the back of three away wins against Napoli, Sunderland and Ipswich.
Arsenal have a good record on the south coast. Unbeaten in their last six visits, winning three of those, the Gunners have also kept four clean sheets across those matches. Their defence will need to be on the pulse once again, as Brighton have been scoring for fun, but it's their lack of clean sheets that's clearly concerning punters.
Odds: Arsenal to win was 3/4 now 7/10
Millwall vs West Ham
A fierce derby takes place at The Den this weekend yet despite the rivalry, it's West Ham that are expected to continue their title charge and pick up all three points. Sitting top after seven matches, West Ham are as short as 1/1 to win the Championship, despite sitting on the same amount of points as Swansea, Middlesbrough and West Brom.
Yet after losing 2-1 vs Charlton, the Hammers have responded with four wins and a draw in the league, that includes wins over Wolves, Derby and Wrexham, scoring plenty of goals in the process.
Millwall, on the other hand, have won just one of their last five, losing three, and that is why bettors have supported West Ham from 5/6 into 3/4 to get the job done.
At The Den, it has been mixed when it comes to results, but a 3-0 defeat vs Wrexham stands out, especially considering the Hammers just put six past them. An away win has proven to be very popular.
Odds: West Ham to win was 5/6 now 3/4
Wrexham vs Southampton
After Wrexham's 6-0 defeat vs West Ham last weekend, Southampton have been backed in from 13/10 into 5/4 with BetMGM to pick up three points in Wales this weekend.
The Saints haven't lost since their opening day defeat and head to Wrexham on the back of two victories against Swansea and Bristol City where they scored seven goals.
Wrexham are winless in their last three, scoring just once, and now come across a side that looked as though they could have been a Premier League side last campaign if it wasn't for spy gate. They haven't won in four at home, scoring just three goals, and Southampton may only need one or two to come away with the win.
Odds: Southampton to win was 13/10 now 5/4
Paris FC vs Strasbourg
Over in Ligue 1, there has been plenty of support for Paris FC to get the better of Strasbourg this weekend. Having opened at odds-against, that price has been slowly chipped away at, and are now 10/11 with BetMGM to win.
Why? Well Paris FC haven't lost any of their four league games to date, which includes two wins against Nice and Marseille, as well as drawing 0-0 with Lyon. Strasbourg have been in good form themselves, but their sole loss came against Marseille, where they were battered 4-0, and that is what is potentially putting bettors off.
Paris FC have looked well organised and yet effective in the final third, whereas Strasbourg have yet to keep a clean sheet, and that could be their downfall this weekend. The punters believe the hosts can bounce back in what looks to be an intriguing affair in Ligue 1.
