Ipswich need to be a little worse than they were in the Championship to compete at this level.

They commit more fouls (14.2), receive more yellow cards (3) and make more tackles (18.4) than 90 in the championship. Aston Villa are also a team that likes confrontations and this looks like a potential cracker of a fixture with the card line being a value play at 10/11 with Sky Bet for 50+ booking points.

Referees are as picky as ever in the Premier League, with more than 50 yellow points awarded in 19 of the last 23 games.

RESULT PREDICTION: 1-2 | JONES KNOWS' BEST BET: 50+ Booking Points (10/11 with Sky Bet, part of 9/1 treble)

This has to be the hardest game of the weekend to form a clear opinion on. It could end 4-1 either way. It could end 4:4. I have no idea.

I think Manchester United are improving compared to last season. Just a quick look back at last season's confusing data proves this. They have only had to take 10 shots per game this season, down from 17.6 per game last season, and this season they have averaged just 3.1 conceded corners per game, up from a remarkable 7.3 last season most of any Premier League team.

Meanwhile, Tottenham's away record against top 11 teams since the start of last season has been terrible: they have won two of 12 games and conceded an average of 2.2 goals per game.

I was tempted by the 13/10 for a home win, but I don't yet trust United enough to invest.

Then it's a high scoring draw.

RESULT PREDICTION: 2-2

Highlights from the Premier League game between Southampton and Ipswich

The 18-year-old academy prospect impressed on his debut against Manchester United, outwitting Diogo Dalot, who committed four fouls on him, including one that earned the Saints a penalty. He then scored his first career goal in the 1-1 draw with Ipswich and provided another great moment for Cameron Archer, who hit the post with a wasteful finish.

Kick-off is 8:00 p.m


His attacking performance and the way he moves with the ball reminds me of Jack Grealish – and he also attracts fouls like him, winning eight fouls in his two Premier League starts. His counterpart, Milos Kerkez, could be in for a difficult evening and he looks to have a valuable point at odds of 9/2 on Sky Bet.

RESULT PREDICTION: 1-1
