Odds via 1xBet correct as at time of publishing.
Brighton have rediscovered their form in recent weeks, winning their last three games. They have won six of their last eight in all competitions, with four of those wins also coming with a clean sheet.
The Seagulls have had a hold over this fixture recently, winning five of the last seven meetings between the pair. Bournemouth are having the season of a lifetime, but after losing 1-0 at home to Wolves on Saturday, it is unclear how they will bounce back from defeat.
It might seem like a surprise pick given Palace’s recent form, but it is worth noting most of their success has come on the road. They have won six of their last seven league games on the road, compared with just one victory from eight at home in the top flight.
Villa are starting to get their new signings bedded in, with Marcus Rashford and Marco Asensio helping them beat Chelsea at the weekend. The Midlands club have claimed victory in five of their last eight Premier League matches played on Tuesday.
Everton stand out as the best value pick of the midweek, as they are thriving under David Moyes. They ought to have beaten Manchester United at the weekend and have won both away league games under Moyes.
Brentford’s home form has fallen apart in recent weeks, losing five of their last six in west London. The Bees are also winless in six midweek Premier League games since the start of last season, while they haven’t beaten Everton in five meetings.
Nottingham Forest’s recent struggles have been evident, as they lost three of their last four Premier League games. A fixture against Arsenal may not seem timely, but given the Gunners’ horrific injury crisis, Forest could get back to winning ways.
Arsenal appeared worn out and beaten in their 1-0 weekend defeat against West Ham and are now 11 points behind in the title race. The Gunners have only won one away league game against a side starting this midweek round in the top half. Liverpool are the only team to stop Forest from winning at home in their last six.
West Ham are starting to find their form under Graham Potter, following an impressive 1-0 away win over Arsenal at the weekend. They should have no trouble overcoming lowly Leicester, who have lost 10 of their last 11 league games.
The Hammers have lost just one of their last 14 Premier League games against promoted sides. West Ham have played six historical Premier League matches on a Thursday and lost just one of them.
Brighton, Everton, Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest all present impressive value for this midweek Premier League round.
All four teams have form on their side, which suggests they are overpriced. West Ham stand out as the safest midweek bet, but the other four all represent great value as singles. As always, remember to place your Premier League bets responsibly.
