Most Premier League Assists Odds 2021/22

Arguably the best midfielder in the league, it’s no surprise that Kevin De Bruyne is the 3/1 favourite with Sky Bet to have the most assists this season and win the Playmaker of the Year award once again.

The Belgium ace won the award for the 2019/20 season after recording a whopping 20 assists, which equalled Thierry Henry’s record. That was De Bruyne’s second time winning the award, winning it in its inaugural year in 2017/18 also.

It means that the 30-year-old has won more Playmaker awards than any other player and De Bruyne but still managed 12 assists in 25 appearances last campaign during his injury-hit season. It’s more than likely he’ll be up there again and fighting for his third Playmaker award and with Jack Grealish at City too, it’s hard not to go with him.

Bruno Fernandes has been incredible for Manchester United since his arrival in 2020 and he might just be the best player for the club over the last decade. The Portuguese maestro continues to rack up the goals and assists for the Red Devils, with 18 goals and 11 assists in 37 appearances last season. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side have strengthened in the window, with one of the notable signings being Jadon Sancho from Borussia Dortmund.

The potential link up with Sancho and Fernandes, and the rest of United’s strong forward line like Paul Pogba and Edinson Cavani could see the former Sporting Lisbon man come away with the Playmaker award for 2021/22.

Either way, he is right in there once again at 10/1 to get the most assists.

Harry Kane is renowned for being one of the best finishers in the world but showed a different side to his game when claiming the Playmaker award last season with a fantastic individual campaign.

The England captain recorded 14 assists last campaign, with his telepathic partnership with Son Heung-min proving to be devastating. There’s plenty of talk and rumours about a potential move for the 28-year-old, with City being the prevalent destination mentioned after a reported £130m bid ahead of the new season.

If that is the case, you can only see Kane linking up with City’s stars and possibly adding another Playmaker award to his collection.

Kane is now 10/1 to get the most assists again.

After his £100m move from Aston Villa, it’ll be interesting to see how much of an impact Jack Grealish will have at Manchester City but it is widely expected to be a significant one. After paying a sum like that, City and Pep Guardiola will be sure to get the best from City’s new number 10 and he might just become one of the very best under his leadership.

The former Villa star had a fantastic campaign for the Villains last season, seeing him score six goals and provide 12 assists and once again, he was clearly the best player in the lower half of the league.

With the likes of De Bruyne, İlkay Gündoğan and Riyad Mahrez alongside him, it could see Grealish add even more assists, usually from his favoured left-wing role.

Grealish makes up the contingency that is 10/1 as the joint-second favourites behind De Bruyne.

After storming the Bundesliga, can Jadon Sancho provide the same numbers in the Premier League? The English winger established himself as one of the top talents in world football, with 89 goal involvements in 104 appearances in Germany’s top tier during the four years he spent at the Black and Yellows and broke record after record as a young talent on the continent.

Sancho recorded 12 or more assists in his past three Bundesliga seasons, notching up 17 in 2019/20 and 18 assists in 18/19, only being beaten by Thomas Muller in those charts down the years. It shows he’s more than capable of setting up his teammates and could reach those levels again next season at his new team, especially with the talent now at Old Trafford.

Sancho most assists odds are at 14/1.
