It’s shaping up to be high scoring encounters: Accumulator Tip for December 16

The next leg of the EPL schedule takes place on 16th December. Our accumulator predictions feature Chelsea vs Everton and Liverpool vs Newcastle. What should we expect from these games?

Chelsea vs Everton: The Londoners cannot go wrong

In their penultimate game, Chelsea recently lost their top spot in the EPL due to a 2-3 defeat against West Ham. The London club is now third, five points behind first-place Manchester City, but they have a game in hand. Now is not the time to throw points away, especially against Everton.

Everton broke their eight-match winning streak with a sensational 2-1 victory over Arsenal. After that, it would seem that the team should have believed in themselves and made a comeback, but no. In the next game, Everton were defeated by Crystal Palace (1-3).

Chelsea’s defeat could see them drop out of the race for the lead, so Thomas Tuchel’s side will give their all at 120%. On the other hand, Everton cannot boast away games - four defeats in their last four. They have scored 11 goals in five recent games, which is an average of 2.2. We think that the home team will score more than twice.

Liverpool vs Newcastle: The visitors can’t avoid a rout

Everything is very obvious in this pairing. Jurgen Klopp’s team won’t even draw with the underdog. Liverpool are desperate for points now, as Manchester City picked up another win and increased their lead. In their last game, Newcastle were beaten 0-4 by Leicester. We’re expecting a similar result from Liverpool.
