Sunday 9/13 EPL Slate
The NFL is back and so is the EPL. For those, looking to release some pre-game anxiety, we have a pair of soccer games in the hours leading up to NFL lock.
The Sunday slate is a two gamer with the first game 9am ET between newly promoted West Bromwich Albion “West Brom” playing host to Leicester City. Directly following that, Tottenham will be at home, squaring off with Everton.
Leicester City had a disappointing end to last season, missing out on a final four position and a Champion’s League spot. James Maddison is likely to be out, leaving set pieces to Youri Tielemans. Meanwhile up front, they are still led by 33 year old Jamie Vardy, coming off one of the best seasons of his career.
The late game should be a good game. Everton played really well the second half of last year and certainly Tottenham has a lot of quality players with everyone fully healthy.
EPL Best Bets
Everton (+320) at Tottenham (-110) – Under 2.5 Goals (-117) – 11:00 AM ET – Sunday 9/13 – *EVERTON*
The Betting Game Plan
Tottenham will be home and has everyone back healthy. However, I think this is closer than the odds suggest. One potential wild card is the introduction of James “Hammes” Rodriguez, the nation of Columbia’s best player and new import from Real Madrid.
James will be a huge upgrade from Gylfi Sigurdsson and likely share set pieces with Lucas Digne immediately once on the pitch, but we will see if he starts right away.
Overall, there is more juice on the underdog and no incentive to take Tottenham at basically even money.
