Jones Knows thinks Everton can finally end their dismal away run at Leeds and is tipping up some big-priced goalscorer bets on Tuesday.

Crystal Palace vs Brentford, Tuesday 7.30pm
Backing Crystal Palace to win football matches at Selhurst Park this season should prove a profitable betting strategy. The markets aren’t quite as sweet on them as perhaps they should be which is leading to bigger than expected prices on Palace home wins. They delivered the goods when dispatching Aston Villa and at 11/10 here with Sky Bet they look a bet to beat a similarly ranked team to Villa in the shape of Brentford.
Palace have only lost five home games under Patrick Vieira – only Chelsea (3), Man City (2) and Liverpool (0) have lost fewer since the start of last season. That strong form is backed up by the underlying numbers. When just analysing home matches since Vieira took charge, Palace have shown the sixth best expected goals process showcasing a very high-performance level which has been restricted results-wise by too many draws. I’d be confident of them registering maximum points in this one.
SCORE PREDICTION: 2-0

Fulham vs Brighton, Tuesday 7.30pm
Goals could flow freely in this encounter and I want to be on a couple of Brighton players to score anytime.
I had a front row view of Solly March missing 0.81 worth of expected goals in Brighton’s 1-0 win over Leeds. It was painful viewing, yet it was another performance that clarified he is hugely overpriced in the goalscorer markets with somehow the 17/2 anytime bet not landing due to his wasteful finishing. March is playing in a position akin to the one that Mohamed Salah plays for Liverpool, as a right winger cutting in on his left. It’s taking him into some dangerous goalscoring positions and this two-year drought without a goal is going to end soon. The 10/1 anytime price is worth jumping on at Craven Cottage.
Pascal Gross should also prick the ears of punters at 9/2 with Sky Bet. He is playing very advanced and his goals return since doing so is impressive, notching seven goals in his last nine Premier League appearances. That price is just too big.
SCORE PREDICTION: 1-2 | BETTING ANGLE: Solly March to score anytime (10/1 with Sky Bet) & Pascal Gross to score anytime (9/2 with Sky Bet)
Southampton vs Chelsea, Tuesday 7.30pm – PLAY SUPER 6 HERE!
I can guarantee you will find better 1/2 shots than what Chelsea are to beat Southampton over the course of the next week, but it’s hard to see their defence wilting enough to allow the possibility of the upset. They won nine of their 10 Premier League away games last season against teams who finished in the bottom half, conceding just four goals. Yes, that Leeds defeat is still fresh in the memory but I’m happy to let that slide owing to Edouard Mendy’s mishap which set the tone for a calamitous day at the office.
