Saturday 15 February 2025 15: 00, UK Our betting expert Jones Knows provides his insight for the weekend's Premier League games and predicts a title-race swing with Liverpool slipping up at home to Wolves. Lots of people are sleeping on just how progressive Crystal Palace have been under Oliver Glasner. If they pick up maximum points here, it would be their best points total after 25 games in Premier League history. It is about time they recorded some consistent wins over Everton - their head-to-head record against them is horrendous. Palace have won just once in the last 20 Premier League meetings going back to 2015. This looks an open goal for them if they turn up based on who Everton have missing in forward areas, with Abdoulaye Doucoure, Iliman Ndiaye, Dwight Mc Neil, Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Orel Mangala all unavailable for this trip to south London - all five would start this game in an ideal world.

There are a few niggling doubts starting to creep in. Arne Slot's men created just 0. 4 worth of expected goals (x G) from open play in the defeat at Plymouth and then a total of just 0. 65 total expected goals at Everton - that was their lowest x G return in any game in all competitions under Slot.

Despite Liverpool's ridiculous record at Anfield, a pro-Wolves play at the prices is advised based on their improved defensive metrics under Vitor Pereira, who has made a brilliant short-term impact. Under Gary O'Neil they conceded 2. 5 goals per game, but that is down to 1. 5 goals per game, whilst their shots-faced data is down from 14. 6 to 12. 4 per game. They were excellent against Aston Villa, restricting them to just 0. 57 worth of expected goals in a convincing 2-0 win. These types of defensive improvements have not been factored into the market enough here, with Wolves to avoid defeat on the double chance at 4/1 with Sky Bet just too big to pass up. Ruben Amorim needs a performance where it is clear to see some evidence of his philosophy being put into action. All I am seeing is a miserly team that grind out results and struggles to create any momentum in games. United have scored just 28 goals in 24 Premier League matches this season to a per-90 average of 1. 17 - only Leicester, Ipswich and Southampton average fewer. Therefore, it remains a smart betting play to keep on backing United's inability to start games with any intent under Amorim. The only first-half goal they have scored in their last 15 games in all competitions was Bruno Fernandes' penalty in the defeat to Brighton, and after failing to lead at the break against Leicester it is now 17 matches since this team led after 45 minutes. Tottenham head into this one with their own problems but the 15/8 with Sky Bet for them to be winning at half-time has a chance.
