5 Booking Tips to Watch This Weekend - Gameweek 4

Both sides come into this game after recent defeats, with Chelsea exiting the EFL Cup on Tuesday and Crystal Palace dropping three points at the weekend against Everton.

In the recent fixtures for their sides in the Premier League, two of the more reckless players for each side are Andreas Christensen and James McArthur. The Danish centre-back was sent off in their match against Liverpool on September 20th and saw yellow last weekend against West Bromwich Albion.

James McArthur was also booked in their last match against Everton, and with Crystal Palace facing the likes of Kai Havertz and Mason Mount, the two midfielders may struggle to cope. Last season, McArthur was booked six times in the league.

Christensen is priced at 7/2 to be carded, whilst McArthur to be carded is at 10/3.

Burnley will be eager to win this game after suffering two defeats from both Leicester City and Southampton in their only two fixtures. Newcastle United, on the other hand, come into this fixture with four points in three games, with a draw against Tottenham Hotspur most recently.

In their three fixtures this season, the Magpies have racked up nine yellow cards, becoming the second-most booked side in the league so far. Against Spurs, Steve Bruce's men received four yellow cards alone. The Clarets, on the other hand, have received only three bookings this season, however, they have faced only played twice in the league.

Expect some cards brandished in this one, and the odds for 50+ booking points between Newcastle and Burnley is priced at 15/8.

Wolves and Fulham head into this fixture on the back of a defeat, with Wolves losing 4-0 to West Ham United, and Fulham losing 3-0 to Aston Villa.

The Cottagers, come into this fixture as the most booked side in the Premier League this season, receiving 10 yellow cards in their opening three matches. Six of the cards they have received came in their last fixture against Villa, with the other four being shared across their first two matches.

Wolves, on the other hand, have received only two bookings in their three league games, with the last match seeing just one card.

Currently, the odds for 50+ booking points between Wolves and Fulham is priced at 9/4.

Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur will mee in what is no doubt the biggest game for either side in the early stages of the 2020/21 season. Both sides do come into the game showing a little more aggression off the ball than we are used to seeing.

One player who has committed a lot of fouls this season is Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, who has nine to date, which is two less than the league's highest in Tomas Soucek. The Danish midfielder has one card to his name so far in the league and with his average of three fouls per game, more should soon follow.

Bruno Fernandes has also been extremely reckless early in this campaign, conceding a penalty against Brighton & Hove Albion, as well as being carded 18 minutes beforehand.

With both sides desperate for a win, this game could see a few cards. Now, Hojbjerg to be carded is priced at 15/8 and Fernandes to be carded is priced at odds of 15/8.

Jurgen Klopp’s side, head into this fixture after winning their first three matches against Leeds, Chelsea and Arsenal.

This game could produce a lot of cards, especially as the most fouled player of the 2019/20 season in Jack Grealish, will line-up for Aston Villa once more.

As well as this, the Villains have received six yellow cards in their last two matches, averaging three per game right now. At the same time, their defence could struggle against Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah, which is likely to produce a lot of fouls.

With both sides coming into the clash unbeaten, this should be an exciting finale to the Premier League weekend. Now, the odds of over 40+ booking points in the clash between Aston Villa and Liverpool is priced at 13/8.
