Arsenal\u2019s latest slip-up against Watford was typical Arsenal and I can\u2019t see the Gunners getting back to winning ways at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea have a solid record against Arsenal at home and I\u2019m backing the Blues to move one step closer to the title.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Pick: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Home win<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2><b>Watford vs Burnley<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A difficult one. Burnley have been very poor away from Turf Moor this season but Watford haven\u2019t exactly inspired confidence for the most part of the campaign. The Hornets will take confidence from that win against Arsenal but a draw could be on the cards.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Pick: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Draw<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>EVERTON vs Bournemouth<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ronald Koeman\u2019s side have stepped up in recent weeks and the Toffees can prosper against struggling Bournemouth. The visitors have won just one of their last seven Premier League outings and it would be foolish to back against Everton at Goodison Park.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Pick: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Home win<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>CARDIFF CITY vs Norwich City<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cardiff should get the job done here. Neil Warnock\u2019s men have won three home games in a row whilst you have to go back to October 1<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">st<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for Norwich\u2019s last away success. With that in mind, I\u2019m backing a home victory with the draw as an insurance policy.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Pick: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Home win OR draw<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>BIRMINGHAM CITY vs Fulham<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Birmingham\u2019s last home win came back in December but I fancy the Blues to reverse that form when Fulham visit St Andrew\u2019s this weekend. The visitors are just three points off the playoffs and I\u2019m expecting Birmingham to put them to the sword here.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Pick: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Home win<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Burton Albion vs WOLVERHAMPTON WANDERERS<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wolves will be full of confidence after last weekend\u2019s miraculous win against Liverpool in the FA Cup but they cannot afford to get complacent. Burton Albion have lost five in a row at home and Paul Lambert\u2019s men should have enough to get the job done.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Pick: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Draw OR away win<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Ipswich vs Reading<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mick McCarthy\u2019s side struggled in January but the hosts will be confident of securing at least a point against Reading at Portman Road. The visitors are flying high in the table but Ipswich can reverse their 2-1 defeat to Jaap Stam\u2019s side in September.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Pick: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Draw<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.colossusbets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Pick-15-4-Feb-1.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12877\" src=\"https:\/\/www.colossusbets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Pick-15-4-Feb-1.png\" alt=\"Pick 15\" width=\"600\" height=\"380\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.colossusbets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Pick-15-4-Feb-1.png 600w, https:\/\/www.colossusbets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Pick-15-4-Feb-1-300x190.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/h2>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><b>NOTTINGHAM FOREST vs Aston Villa<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gary Brazil has done a fine job since stepping in as interim manager and Forest can get the job done against Steve Bruce\u2019s side here. Villa have been a mixed bag this year and no win in their last six matches in all competitions suggests sticking with Forest.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Pick: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Home win<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>BORUSSIA DORTMUND vs RB Leipzig<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A tough one. Dortmund aren\u2019t the force that they used to be but not many sides can turn up at Signal Iduna Park and win. Leipzig have the talent to test Thomas Tuchel\u2019s outfit but I\u2019ll be siding with the hosts in what could be a feisty Bundesliga affair.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Pick: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Home win OR draw<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>VALENCIA vs Eibar<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Valencia\u2019s form isn\u2019t exactly great but they are due a win and Eibar\u2019s recent struggles could surface again if put under pressure. The visitors have conceded nine goals in their last four games and Valencia could pick them off if they perform well.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Pick: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Home win<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Huddersfield Town vs LEEDS UNITED<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Everything is going Leeds United\u2019s way right now and it would be foolish to go against Garry Monk\u2019s men. Huddersfield played well when beating Brighton in the week but Leeds will be confident of securing three points as they continue to climb the table.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Pick: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Away win<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Toulouse vs ANGERS<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Toulouse have lost their last four without managing to find the net and I\u2019ve opted for a risky away victory here. Angers are just four points behind the hosts and a 2-1 win over Metz in their most recent clash could inspire the visitors to go for the jugular.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Pick: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Away win<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Chievo vs UDINESE<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Both sides got back to winning ways last weekend after a string of defeats but I fancy the visitors to get the better of their opponents here. Their form is very similar but Udinese\u2019s enhanced goal threat should be the difference in a low-scoring contest.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Pick: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Away win<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>NANTES vs Nancy<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nantes had won four in a row before slipping up in their last two contests and I\u2019m going to give the hosts another chance here. Nancy are notoriously poor away from home and that is enough to convince me to side with Nantes to win OR draw.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Pick: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Home win OR draw<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>GRANADA vs Las Palmas<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is impossible to side with Granada here. The hosts are rooted to the bottom of the table and four defeats in their last five games doesn\u2019t exactly inspire hope. Las Palmas got back to winning ways last weekend and I\u2019ll be backing the visitors to record another victory.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Pick: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Away win<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2>Your chance\u2026<\/h2>\n<p>Over to you, what do you think the scores will be?
