We are just over 3 weeks away from the start of the new Premier League season and now is the perfect time to start placing some season long bets. This is a tactic which we’ve been promoting for many years now and it offers you a great chance of winning big come the end of the season, or cashing out for good value at the beginning of next year. Now is the perfect time to place your season bets because the odds are at their best and that gives you a great chance to make your selections for maximum value, especially on sites such as https://www.novibet.co.uk/sports who throw up great odds for these choices. If you aren’t sure what to look at, here are some examples which you could be thinking about.
Champions
Don’t bother placing bets on who will be the champions unless you have had a premonition of a repeat of what Leicester City achieved in 2016. Realistically the title will be fought out between Liverpool and City, both providing low value odds.
Top 4
Picking which teams will fill up the last 2 Champions League positions this year offers awesome value because it is going to be a shootout between Spurs, Chelsea, Man United, Arsenal, and potentially Leicester and Wolves too. The safe money would go on Spurs and Chelsea and this can bring in odds of almost 3/1. Arsenal and United look set to slide but there is still time in the transfer window and United are expected to buy big, get on them now for the best odds.
Relegation
Relegation always throws up a surprise and the fact that so many promoted teams manage to stay in the division in their first year makes this a really fierce contest. Currently you can get great odds on teams like Newcastle and Brighton who look set to struggle in the coming year. Combine a choice like this with a team such as yo-yo specialists Norwich and you can put together a great bet.
Top 10
A real favorite of ours is betting on the top 10, because you will usually have 2 or 3 who sneak in against the odds. If we assume the top 6 to be the ‘usual suspects’ then beyond that we have Wolves, Leicester, Watford, Everton and maybe even West Ham in contention to nail a top 10 finish. These are not long shot bets but selections which can give you some healthy odds and a great chance of winning. We have seen just how many unexpected teams have finished in the top 10 over the last few years, teams such as Burnley, Newcastle and of course Wolves who had a remarkable season last year.
Make sure that you know all of the transfer movements of the teams in the league and any managerial changes which have taken place before making your selections.
