BetBright STATZONE: Premier League (21st – 23rd Dec 2018)
Updated: 28/05/2023
Welcome to the BetBright STATZONE, where we give you the stats and you make the decisions!
More Premier League action as we head towards the final weekend before Christmas – it’s week 18!
We get going on Friday night as Wolves host Liverpool and with the Reds winning the last two repeat fixtures 0-3 then it might be a tough evening for the home side.
Then onto Saturday and plenty going on with Arsenal entertaining Burnley in the lunchtime clash – a match that the Gunners took 5-0 last season.
Six 3pm games to look forward to that include Manchester City v Crystal Palace and Chelsea v Leicester, while the 5:30pm match-up is between Cardiff and Manchester United.
We end the action on Sunday with Everton welcoming Spurs to Goodison Park, but with Harry Kane scoring six goals (2 in each) in the last three head-to-heads then the Merseysiders will be looking to keep the England captain quiet this year!
As always here at StatZone we’ve got all the games covered from a head-to-head angle, plus our best betting option on each match based on the stats – So, let’s get started!
