Tottenham and Arsenal will be aiming to finish their pre-seasons on a high when they meet at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in Sunday’s Mind Series clash.

Nuno Espirito Santo’s men put in a creditable performance against Chelsea in midweek, fighting back from two goals down to draw 2-2.

Tottenham vs Arsenal latest odds

Spurs are priced at 6/4 (2.50) with bet365 to head into next weekend’s Premier League kick-off in confident spirits with a victory against their local rivals.

Arsenal have failed to win any of their three official friendly matches this summer but can be backed at 6/4 (2.50) to come out on top on enemy territory here.

Just two of the last 10 encounters between this duo have resulted in draws, but you can get odds of 23/10 (3.10) on them cancelling each other out in this one.

Tottenham vs Arsenal team news

Harry Kane is unlikely to be involved despite returning to training on Saturday, while Ryan Sessegnon is doubtful due to injury.

Thomas Partey could be out for a month after coming off with an ankle injury in last weekend’s defeat to Chelsea, with Gabriel Magalhaes also sidelined and Gabriel Martinelli still on holiday.

Tottenham vs Arsenal preview

While the hefty price tag spent on Ben White raised some eyebrows, it is no real surprise that Mikel Arteta has chosen to strengthen his backline.

Indeed, his team’s pre-season performances have shown a rather alarming lack of solidity in defence, conceding two goals in each of their official matches against Hibs, Rangers and Chelsea – also failing to keep clean sheets in training ground games against Watford and Millwall.

Even without Kane, a Spurs side that have hit the net eight times in their last three friendly fixtures will be confident of finding some joy in front of goal against that kind of opposition.

Tottenham vs Arsenal tips & predictions

With Tottenham also keeping just one clean sheet in four games this summer, odds of 17/20 (1.85) seem generous on over 2.5 goals being scored for their fourth game in a row and a fourth in four for Arsenal.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With both teams looking prolific in front of goal so far this summer, Al Hain-Cole expects an entertaining clash between Klopp's men and Los Leones

Liverpool will be hoping to welcome fans back to Anfield with a win when they take on Athletic Club in Sunday’s friendly clash.

The Reds were beaten 4-3 by Hertha Berlin in their last full pre-season match, although did record two 60-minute victories over Bologna at their training camp in France in midweek.

Liverpool vs Athletic Club latest odds

With the stadium set to be at 75 per cent capacity for the first time since March 2020, Liverpool are available at 1/2 (1.50) with bet365 to give the supporters something to celebrate by coming out on top.

Marcelino’s Athletic Club pulled off a 3-1 victory over Southampton on Saturday and are available at 17/4 (5.25) to finish their pre-season on a high with another win over Premier League opposition, or 16/5 (4.20) to earn a creditable draw.

Thiago Alcantara will not be involved as he recovers from a minor injury, with the Spain international expected to return to training next week.

Unai Simon is not with the team after winning a silver medal at the Tokyo Olympics on Saturday, while Yuri Berchiche is ruled out through injury.

Liverpool vs Athletic Club preview

With both sides playing two games in the space of two days, it is difficult to predict what kind of line-ups both the managers will go with.

Nevertheless, it seems fairly safe to expect an entertaining game considering the quality of attacking players at Jurgen Klopp’s disposal, with the likes of Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane both looking sharp so far this summer.

The home defence is also bound to be in for a test considering Athletic’s pre-season form so far, having found the net in all but one of their six friendly fixtures and scored six times in the three most recent games against Borussia Dortmund, Union Berlin and Southampton.

Liverpool vs Athletic Club predictions

Having played out an exciting 4-3 defeat in their last full 90 minute match against Hertha Berlin, odds of 8/11 (1.73) seem safe on Liverpool ensuring more goalmouth action by both scoring and conceding against a dangerous Athletic side.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With Ronaldo leading the attack for the Bianconeri against Koeman's Messi-less team, Al Hain-Cole expects an entertaining Joan Gamper Trophy clash

Barcelona will be desperate for a much-needed morale boost when they take on Juventus in Sunday’s Joan Gamper Trophy clash.

The Blaugrana have been rocked by the news that Lionel Messi will not be able to renew his contract for the upcoming season, leaving Camp Nou after over 20 years at the club.

Barcelona vs Juventus latest odds

However, Barcelona can be backed at 5/4 (2.25)   with bet365 to raise the spirits ahead of next weekend’s La Liga kick-off by coming out on top against their high-profile opponents.

Having returned to the club where he won 11 trophies between 2014 and 2019, Massimiliano Allegri is available at 13/8 (2.63)   to oversee an impressive victory for Juventus in Catalunya or 16/5 (4.20)   to secure a creditable draw.

Barcelona vs Juventus team news

Marc-Andre ter Stegen, Ansu Fati and Ousmane Dembele are all absent due to injury, while Pedri is unavailable after picking up a silver medal in Saturday’s Olympic games final against Brazil.

Cristiano Ronaldo is expected to make his first appearance of the pre-season campaign, although Giorgio Chiellini, Leonardo Bonucci, Alex Sandro and Danilo are unlikely to feature after only joining up with the squad earlier this week.

Barcelona vs Juventus preview

Ronaldo’s presence is likely to be even more significant given Messi’s bombshell departure, with the former Real Madrid man bound to be determined to rub salt in the wounds of his old rivals.

He will certainly fancy his chances against a defence that was beaten twice in a 2-1 defeat to Salzburg in midweek, with his side in free-scoring form so far this summer.

However, Ronald Koeman’s team are more than capable of packing a punch of their own even without Messi, and have the advantage of being much further along in their pre-season preparations than their guests.

Barcelona vs Juventus predictions

With Juventus missing a number of key defensive players, odds of 11/10 (2.10)   are well worth backing on over 3.5 goals being scored in an exciting game versus Barcelona at the Johan Cruyff Stadium.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With the majority of their first team not in action, Al Hain-Cole is not expecting Klopp's men to find life easy against Arrasate's side at Anfield

Liverpool will be hoping to round off their pre-season preparations with a win when they welcome Osasuna to Anfield on Monday.

The Reds have won one, drawn one, and lost one of their three official friendly matches this summer, playing out a 1-1 draw with Athletic Club on Sunday.

Liverpool vs Osasuna latest odds

With their Premier League season kicking off against Norwich on Saturday, Liverpool are available at 2/5 (1.40) with bet365 to sign off on a high by coming out on top here.

Jagoba Arrasate’s Osasuna side have won all four of their pre-season matches so far but are 11/2 (6.50) outsiders to pull off a victory on Merseyside, or 16/5 (4.20) to hold the hosts to a second stalemate in the space of 24 hours.

Liverpool vs Osasuna team news

None of the players who took part against Athletic are expected to play, with Jordan Henderson and Thiago Alcantara set to be offered their first action of the summer in a line-up missing the likes of Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Virgil van Dijk.

Cote, Iker Benito, Rober Ibanez and Aridane Hernandez are all absent due to injury for the guests, while Jon Moncayola is yet to return to training after collecting a silver medal for Spain at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.

Liverpool vs Osasuna preview

With many of the squad coming back to training at different times after taking part in Euro 2020 and the Copa America this summer, these two matches on successive days at Anfield will allow Jurgen Klopp to ease players back into action and assess his options.

While the likes of new signing Ibrahima Konate will be keen to impress ahead of the new season in this clash, it is probably fair to say that most of the players likely to start against Norwich were included in Sunday’s line-up.

In contrast, Los Rojillos will come into this game with their strongest possible line-up as they look to fine tune ahead of their La Liga opener against Espanyol on Saturday.

Liverpool vs Osasuna tips & predictions

Having performed well so far this summer and beaten Real Sociedad by an impressive 3-1 scoreline last time out, Osasuna therefore look well worth 13/8 (2.63) odds to at least avoid defeat against an experimental Liverpool side.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The Rams welcome League Two opposition to Pride Park in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday and we think it could be a long night for Wayne Rooney's side

Wayne Rooney’s Derby County face Salford City in the first round of the Carabao Cup on Tuesday evening.

The Rams began their Championship season at the weekend with a 1-1 draw against Huddersfield Town, while Salford also drew by the same scoreline against Leyton Orient in their League Two opener on Saturday. 

Derby County vs Salford City latest odds

These two sides met in a pre-season friendly just over two weeks ago, with Salford running out 2-1 winners and bet365 price another success for Gary Bowyer’s team at 12/5 (3.40) .

Derby, meanwhile, are available at 11/10 (2.10) to win, with the draw on offer at 12/5 (3.40) .

Derby County vs Salford City team news

The Carabao Cup is unlikely to be a priority for either side this season and both managers look set to make plenty of changes to their respective starting XIs.

Derby remain without long-term injury absentee Krystian Bielik while fellow midfielder Jason Knight is also missing with an ankle problem.

Derby County vs Salford City preview

Rooney was positive about his side’s performance at the weekend and was particularly impressed with their reaction when they conceded.

The manager will know that the midweek game against lower-ranked opposition is a chance to build confidence and momentum at the start of a new campaign, although realistically he will be more concerned with the forthcoming clash in the Championship against Peterborough United.

Salford for their part knocked out Championship opposition at this stage of the tournament last season, beating Rotherham on penalties, and they will view Tuesday night’s clash as another chance for an upset which will further help cement their relatively new-found status in professional English football. 

Derby County vs Salford City tips & predictions

The price of 12/5 (3.40) for the draw could be of interest, while the price of evens (2.00) for Salford to win either half could also appeal.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Having struggled for cutting edge so far this season, Al Hain-Cole expects Gerrard's men to endure another frustrating 90 minutes against the Sky Blue

Rangers will be aiming to mount a comeback when they welcome Malmo to Ibrox in Tuesday’s Champions League qualifier.

Steven Gerrard’s side went down 2-1 in the away leg in Sweden, with Steven Davis pulling one back late on to halve the deficit.

Rangers vs Malmo latest odds

While away goals no longer count for double, Rangers are available at 11/20 (1.55) with bet365 to at least take this game into extra-time by coming out on top in front of their own fans.

Malmo have now gone 11 Champions League qualifiers without defeat and are priced at 19/4 (5.75) to progress to the play-off round by pulling off a win in Glasgow.

Each of the visitors’ last three away matches in this competition have resulted in draws, and there are odds of 14/5 (3.80) on offer for them to hold out for another stalemate in this one.

Rangers vs Malmo team news

Alfredo Morelos will lead the line after returning to action since the first leg, although Ryan Jack is injured and Kemar Roofe is unavailable due to personal reasons.

Jonas Knudsen and Ola Toivonen remain the only injury absentees for the visitors, who are likely to stick with the same line-up that emerged victorious at the Eleda Stadion.

Rangers vs Malmo preview

While Morelos’ return is a major boost for a Gers side that struggled for cutting edge in the away leg, he was unable to come up with the goods in Saturday’s frustrating 1-0 defeat against Dundee United – their first SPL loss in 41 fixtures.

That game was hardly ideal preparation for this crucial game against Jon Dahl Tomasson’s team, who are likely to also sit deep and defend as they aim to protect their first-leg lead.

Having kept four consecutive clean sheets in the league and let in just three goals in their last five Champions League matches on the road, the Swedish champions will definitely back themselves to stifle their out-of-form opponents.

Rangers vs Malmo tips & predictions

All in all, even money (2.00) seems like good value on Malmo ensuring under 2.5 goals against a Rangers side that are yet to hit top gear this season.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Northern Ireland hosts the UEFA Super Cup for the first time this week and the fixture should provide plenty of entertainment as it usually does

Chelsea and Villarreal meet in Belfast on Wednesday evening as the winners of the Champions League face the Europa League holders in the UEFA Super Cup.

The traditional curtain raiser to the European season takes place at Windsor Park this year and Thomas Tuchel’s side are overwhelming favourites against their La Liga opponents.

Back in May, Unai Emery’s men overcame Manchester United on penalties to lift the first piece of European silverware in their history and, while Chelsea have contested the UEFA Super Cup in four previous years, this will be Villarreal’s first appearance in the fixture.

Chelsea vs Villarreal latest odds

Chelsea’s only previous UEFA Super Cup success came back in 1998 when they defeated Spanish opposition in the form of Real Madrid, and while on that occasion they were clear outsiders, on Wednesday they are well fancied.

Chelsea are offered at 3/4 (1.75) by bet365 to win in 90 minutes and at 2/5 (1.40) to lift the trophy.

Villarreal for their part are available at 15/4 (4.75) to win without extra time and at 2/1 (3.00) to triumph.

Chelsea vs Villarreal team news

Last week saw the Blues’ international stars from Brazil, Italy and England return to training with Thiago Silva, Emerson, Jorginho, Mason Mount, Ben Chilwell  and Reece James coming back from their respective summer breaks.

All six players are in the squad for Wednesday’s game although without any pre-season minutes it remains to be seen how much any of them can feature.

Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Ross Barkley, Davide Zappacosta, Tiemoue Bakayoko and Trevor Chalobah have all been left out of the squad.

Villarreal are missing midfielder Dani Parejo who is out with a calf injury.

His absence is a real blow for Unai Emery, with the former Valencia man playing more minutes in La Liga than any outfield player in the squad last term.

Chelsea vs Villarreal preview

In recent years the UEFA Super Cup has proved to be an exciting and open match, and Wednesday night’s clash should be another entertaining encounter.

The Yellow Submarine may be outsiders, but their last two European matches have seen them overcome English opposition in both Arsenal and Manchester United, and Unai Emery’s side are unlikely to be overawed.

Villarreal were the fourth top scorers in La Liga last season behind Barcelona, Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid, while in the Europa League they netted in 14 of the 15 matches they contested.

Chelsea, too, were regular scorers in the Champions League last term, failing to find the back of the net just twice in 13 games, and with the UEFA Super Cup having a history of seeing plenty of goals, there should be plenty of interest in opposing either side to keep a clean sheet.

Chelsea vs Villarreal tips & predictions

Both teams to score has paid out in eight of the last nine UEFA Super Cups and a repeat is offered at the healthy-looking price of 19/20 (1.95) .

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With the Hoops starting to look sharp in front of goal, Al Hain-Cole expects an entertaining Europa League clash when Rada's men visit Celtic Park

Celtic will be hoping to continue their recent resurgence when they welcome Jablonec to Glasgow for Thursday’s Europa League qualifier.

After failing to win any of his first four matches in charge, Ange Postecoglou oversaw a 4-2 first-leg victory in the Czech Republic before seeing his side thrash Dundee 6-0 at the weekend.

Celtic vs Jablonec latest odds

In high spirits, Celtic are now clear 4/11 (1.36) favourites with bet365 to maintain the feelgood factor by making it three wins in a row.

Jablonec have gone three matches without a win after drawing 2-2 with Bohemians at the weekend and are 6/1 (7.00) outsiders to come out on top at Parkhead, or priced at 15/4 (4.75) to earn a draw.

Celtic vs Jablonec team news

New signing James McCarthy will be hoping to make his debut after joining from Crystal Palace last week, although Leigh Griffiths and Christopher Jullien are both ruled out due to injury.

Petr Rada is likely to stick with the same line-up as took to the field in the home leg, with Vaclav Pilar the danger man after scoring in three of his last four appearances.

Celtic vs Jablonec preview

Having arrived in Scotland with a reputation for attacking football, Postecoglou will have been frustrated with his side’s lack of cutting edge in the first few games – scoring just three times in three competitive matches.

However, the Hoops certainly seem to have slipped into gear over the last couple of fixtures, scoring 10 goals in two games and seeing new signing Kyogo Furuhashi hit the net four times.

They will be confident of extending that streak against Jablonec, who have conceded nine times in their last three matches and will need to push forwards in an attempt to get back into the tie on Thursday.

Celtic vs Jablonec tips & predictions

Considering Celtic have been less than solid at the back themselves and looked fairly shaky at times in the first leg, odds of 5/4 (2.25) look well worth backing on them ensuring over 3.5 goals for a third game in a row – as well as an eighth consecutive Europa League fixture.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Having scored freely in the Championship, Al Hain-Cole is backing the Bees to provide an entertaining Premier League opener against Arteta's men

Brentford will be hoping to mark their Premier League debut with a win when they welcome Arsenal to the Community Stadium on Friday.

Thomas Frank’s men are returning to the top flight for the first time since the 1946-47 season, having beaten Swansea in the Championship play-offs last campaign.

Brentford vs Arsenal latest odds

Having lost just two of their last 23 matches on home turf, Brentford are available at 16/5 (4.20) with bet365 to make a big entrance by pulling off a shock win against their high-profile opponents.

After finishing last season in a disappointing eighth place, Arsenal are priced at 5/6 (1.83) to raise the spirits by coming out on top in their opening clash.

Four of the hosts’ last eight home games have resulted in draws, and you can get odds of 11/4 (3.75) on them being held to a stalemate in this one.

Rob Holding will face a late fitness test as he struggles with a slight knock, while Gabriel Magalhaes, Thomas Partey and Eddie Nketiah are definitely sidelined through injury.

Brentford vs Arsenal preview

Having narrowly missed out on promotion the season before last, the Bees will be champing at the bit to get started with their first ever Premier League campaign.

Top scorers in each of the last two Championship seasons, they look set to provide plenty of entertainment for the neutrals as well as their own supporters over the course of the upcoming campaign.

Indeed, 31-goal Championship golden boot winner Toney will certainly fancy his chances to get off to a productive start against Mikel Arteta’s injury-hit backline – particularly after a pre-season that saw Arsenal fail to keep a single clean sheet in six friendly matches.

Brentford vs Arsenal tips & predictions

Considering the attacking quality at their disposal and having failed to score in just one of their final 13 league away games last season, Arsenal are well worth odds of 3/4 (1.75) to join Brentford on the scoresheet in an end-to-end clash in West London.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With the Premier League getting underway this weekend, Al Hain-Cole has put together a four-fold accumulator from England's top four leagues

The Premier League 2021-22 season gets under way this weekend and Goal has put together a four-fold accumulator featuring bets from the top four divisions in English football.

Check out our accumulator guide here

Man Utd vs Leeds – Man Utd to win at 8/15 (1.53)

Although their high-profile signings may not be ready to start on the opening weekend, Manchester United look in good shape for kick-off after thrashing Everton 4-0 at Old Trafford in their final pre-season friendly.

In contrast, Leeds failed to win any of their last five friendly matches – losing 4-0 to Ajax in their penultimate game – and are missing a number of key players as they head to a ground where they lost 6-2 last season, making 8/15 (1.53) odds look safe on a home win here.

Leicester vs Wolves – Leicester to win at 4/6 (1.67)

Having already beaten Manchester City to lift the Community Shield last weekend, Leicester will come into the opening Premier League weekend in high spirits as they look to improve on last season’s fifth-placed finish.

With some exciting new signings in their ranks, they look well worth 4/6 (1.67) odds to overcome a Wolves side still finding their feet under a new manager and who won just two of their last 14 league matches on the road.

Hull City vs QPR – Both teams to score at 8/11(1.73)

After sealing the League One title in exciting fashion last season – scoring 39 goals in their final 18 league fixtures – Hull seem to have brought that prolific form with them into the Championship by winning 4-1 away to Preston in their first match.

Considering QPR have both scored and conceded in eight of their last 10 competitive fixtures, and have only failed to find the net on the road in one of their last 16 trips, odds of 8/11 (1.73) look solid on goals going in at both ends at the MKM Stadium.

Salford City vs Sutton United  – Salford to win at 17/20 (1.85)

While they may have narrowly missed out on a play-off place, Salford boasted the best home record in League Two last season – losing just once in 23 games at Moor Lane.

Having reinforced once again over the summer, Gary Bowyer’s team look like solid value at 17/20 (1.85) to beat a newly-promoted Sutton United that lost three of their final four away games in the National League and have started this campaign with two successive defeats.
