Leicester City (+450) vs. Liverpool (-170) 3pm ET

Last season, Leicester's stunning victory over Liverpool was one of the signature games from their glorious championship-winning season.

This season has been a completely different story, though. Leicester look less like the Foxes and more like the chicken. Liverpool, by comparison, have improved from twelve months ago.

The addition of Sadio Mane was a vital one, and his return from the African Cup of Nations has been vital for the club's success. Get on Mane to score first in a Liverpool win at +600.

Saturday 25th February

Chelsea (-425) vs. Swansea City (+950) 10am ET

Chelsea's march to the title looks more likely, but it is not yet guaranteed. This looks like an easy three points on paper, but it may not be. The Swans have been resurgent under Paul Clement and can grab the tie at +525. But we still think Chelsea have too much for the Swans in this one.

Crystal Palace (+105) vs. Middlesbrough (+305) 10am ET

The Eagles have hardly been flying high since Sam Allardyce arrival. They currently sit second-bottom of the league and desperately need a win. Having not played in the F.A. Cup, Big Sam knows he'll have no excuse if they don't get three points against a lacklustre Boro. Get on Crystal Palace to score more than 1.5 goals at +155.

Everton (-265) vs. Sunderland (+650) 10am ET

Back in September, Everton won 3-0 at the Stadium of Light courtesy of an 11-minute hat-trick from Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku. He's hot favorite to terrorise The Mackems from the off again and is +260 to score first.

Hull City (+105) vs. Burnley (+285) 10am ET

Hull City have been a revelation under Marco Silva, dubbed the 'Mini Mourinho' back in his home country of Portugal. They were masterminded to a 2-0 win over Liverpool by Silva earlier this month:

While Hull may still be in the relegation zone, they are in much better form than Burnley, whose away record is abysmal. Get on the home side to win at +105.

West Bromwich Albion (Evens) vs. Bournemouth (+295) 10am ET

Tony Pulis will have his side ready to punish Bournemouth for their Achilles heel - terrible defending in central positions. Expect a bruising encounter for The Cherries' backline, with Salomon Rondon looking to run riot. We like 2-0 to the home side at +900 from Bovada's picks for Correct Score (below):

Watford (+160) vs. West Ham United (+180) 12.30pm

The Hammers have sorted themselves out following some astute January signings and a little heart and commitment following Dimitryi Payet's inglorious departure. They're the value to win with a -1 goal handicap at +500.

Sunday 26th February

Tottenham Hotspur (-290) vs. Stoke City (+750) 8.30am ET

This will not be as easy as it might look. Spurs to be leading at half-time but Stoke to snatch a tie is outrageous at +2000. Invest.
