IT’S been a tough start to the season with plenty of the fancied teams winning and Manchester City beating Chelsea last Sunday was an absolute disaster for us.

Punters always like to back the best teams, but we’re going to continue taking them on and be competitive with our prices.

The Premier League action once again gets underway with Manchester United and we’ve got a strong offer for the Newcastle game at Old Trafford.

We’re going to give money back as a free bet up to £25 if any striker scores first. This includes any one of the following five players: Wayne Rooney, Javier Hernandez, James Wilson, Papiss Cisse and Aleksandar Mitrovic.

There are some competitive games during the rest of tomorrow afternoon, but the big boys come out on Sunday and Monday.

Man City have a tough-looking trip to Goodison Park, where they’ve struggled a little in the past, but I’m sure the punters will be piling into them, along with Chelsea at West Brom.

Perhaps the biggest match of the week is on Monday night, though, where Arsenal face Liverpool at the Emirates.

The Gunners were disappointing at home against West Ham a couple of weeks ago, but they bounced back at Palace and they are our 8/11 favourites.
