Anytime Goalscorer Tips: 7/1 Saturday Premier League Treble

The English Premier League season enters round 36 of a 38-game campaign, and there’s still a lot to play for at both ends of the table. Across the border in Scotland, followers have a title race on their hands as Rangers battle to overthrow long-term champions Celtic. There’s lots to get excited about and plenty to bet on at Betfred.

Football writer Frank Monkhouse returns with the latest edition of his weekend anytime goalscorer tips series. He selects a trio of big-name players from three games in the top tier of English football, covering matches in London, Burnley, and Manchester. Follow his picks and bet on an anytime scorer treble, or add them to your weekend predictions to boost the odds...

Saka to score anytime

We get things moving in London, where title-chasing Arsenal enjoys home advantage over Bournemouth from 12:30 GMT on Saturday in a game broadcast live on television. The Gunners seek the three points needed to ramp up the pressure on Man City as they aim to go one better than last season’s silver medal finish. They’ll need their big players to deliver.

Arsenal beat Bournemouth 4-0 when these teams last met back in September at Vitality Stadium, with Bukayo Saka scoring the opening goal inside 17 minutes. He was also on the scoresheet last weekend when helping the Gunners beat Tottenham 3-2 in a pulsating North London derby. Back the forward to score at least one more against the Cherries.

Isak to score anytime

Later in the day, Burnley host Newcastle at Turf Moor, with the home team fighting against relegation. They won the Championship last season but could make a rapid return to the second tier of English football unless they find the improvement needed to climb the ranks. They enjoy home advantage but play a Newcastle side in great form.

The Magpies have won four and drawn one of their last six at this level, and they’re favourites to add another three points to their tally against a struggling opponent. Newcastle beat Burnley 2-0 at St James Park earlier in the season with Alexander Isak on the scoresheet. The same player scored a brace when his team hammered Sheffield United 5-1 last weekend, and we’re happy to stick with Isak.

Alvarez to score anytime

We wrap things up at the home of the champions, where Manchester City host Wolverhampton Wanderers in a must-win game for Pep Guardiola’s team. Man City is in a two-way shootout for the title with Arsenal, and things are getting nervy with both teams showing fantastic recent form. There’s no room for error, especially at home.

Man City lost 2-1 at Molineux earlier this season, meaning they are out for revenge and the three points available. Julian Alvarez scored his team’s only goal in that game and we’ll take him at decent odds to add another on Saturday evening in a match broadcast live on television. He hasn’t been at his best recently but netted in a 4-0 win over Brighton and seven goals in seven games at the turn of the year.
