Potential Wagers and Forecasts for EPL May 17-20
It's time for the final weekend of the FA Cup in England, and amidst all the excitement, the Premier League continues to chug along. Here are the predictions for the last matches of the season:
Brentford vs. Fulham
Sunday, 10:00 a.m. ET
The Bees are soaring high, having won four straight games and scoring goals for fun. With an unbeaten streak of six games, Brentford is flying under Thomas Frank's command. A European place for next season seems unlikely, but the manager is determined to grab a win in their final home match.
Bryan Mbeumo, a key contributor over the past few seasons, could be on his way out in the summer, with a move to Newcastle possible. With Champions League football on the horizon, the Fulham lineup is in a state of flux, with rumors swirling about Marco Silva's departure.
All these issues might weigh heavy on Fulham, making a straightforward victory for Brentford a likely outcome.
EPL Pick: Brentford vs Fulham - Brentford to win at -114.
Leicester vs. Ipswich
Sunday, 10:00 a.m. ET
Leicester, relegated to the Championship, faces Ipswich in their last game. Jamie Vardy, Leicester's iconic striker, is set to play in his penultimate ever game for the Foxes. At +148, the price for Vardy to score in this emotional farewell game feels too good to pass up.
Ipswich have endured a dismal run, losing 17 of their last 18 league games. Leicester, despite their relegation, have shown fight under the circumstances, beating Southampton in their last home game and drawing with Nottingham Forest.
EPL Pick: Leicester vs Ipswich - Jamie Vardy to score at +148.
Manchester City vs. Bournemouth
Tuesday, 3:00 p.m. ET
Manchester City, the FA Cup runners-up, will be vying for Champions League soccer next season. With Erling Haaland back from injury, expect Kevin De Bruyne to play a significant role in this match.
De Bruyne has scored three goals and provided four assists in 10 games against Bournemouth. At +100, a bet on De Bruyne to score or assist in this match may be a good play.
EPL Pick: Manchester City vs Bournemouth - Kevin De Bruyne to score or assist at +100.
