We take a look at some of the potential Saturday selections, in accordance with the goals, cards and corners count as we head into matchday 16.
In between the festive period, we take the time to brush up on the key stats regarding the 20 Premier League clubs.
Billy Lumsden delves into the markets to unveil his best bets for the coming weekend of Premier League action:
- Burnley have taken a mere 15 corners in five games and have registered the lowest amount in this field all season, averaging three per game this campaign. In their last four home games in all competitions Spurs have racked up 37 corners, just over nine per match, meaning this selection could be a worthy consideration
Best bet- Tottenham (-5) corners on handicap: 1/1 (with Sky Bet) - Manchester City have amassed 24 corners in their last two Premier League matches, and should enjoy the lion-share of possession as they welcome Everton to the Etihad Stadium on Saturday. They lead the corners count with 125 and will tally a hefty total this weekend.
Best bet- Manchester City 10+ corners: 9/4 - In their last three matches, Huddersfield and Newcastle have received 16 yellow cards and two red cards collectively, which could be set to continue as these sides face off on Saturday in what is an important clash for both. Booking points may be a good route to go down in this one as it should be a feisty game from the get-go.
Best bet- 30+ booking points each team: 6/1 - West Ham are included here once again for varying reasons. They have won their last three matches, scoring exactly three in each of those wins, keeping one clean sheet. The Hammers meet a Fulham side who have conceded the most goals in the Premier League by some distance with 40. Claudio Ranieri's new side have not kept a clean sheet all season and that should not change this weekend, which is why this bet could be a winner.
Best bet- West Ham to win and over 3.5 goals in the match: 9/2
Other potential picks:
Crystal Palace v Leicester
Best Bet- Leicester to win to nil: 7/2
Watford v Cardiff
Best bet- Watford to win, BTTS, 4+ corners each team and 20+ booking points each team: 20/1

Brighton v Chelsea

Southampton v Arsenal
