The English Premier League returned with a bang last weekend as Tottenham upset champions Manchester City, Manchester United slammed five goals past rivals Leeds, and both Liverpool and Chelsea showed they mean business this season.
There are some more massive EPL games on the menu in gameweek two, with Chelsea heading across London on Sunday to meet an Arsenal side intent on hitting back after losing to EPL new boys Brentford. But our three-game parlay focuses on three Saturday games. A parlay of these 3 EPL predictions can land a big winning ticket, paying odds of +1084 with DraftKings Sportsbook, that’s almost 11/1! We cashed our EPL parlay last week at +635 odds, so let’s do it again!
After reading the reasoning behind these picks, don’t forget to check out the rest of our soccer predictions for this weekend — and remember to gamble responsibly. Let’s look at today’s three-team parlay:
Leeds suffered a 5-1 hammering against Manchester United at Old Trafford last weekend but heavy defeats can happen when you have a coach like Marcelo Bielsa in charge.
Bielsa wants his sides to attack at every possible moment and, as we saw last season, his players believe in his tactics.
The Whites bounced back from heavy losses plenty of times last season and it’s possible they can do so again back on their home field against an Everton team who are not likely to be adventurous under new head coach Rafael Benitez.

Brentford enjoyed a dream start to their EPL adventure with a 2-0 win over Arsenal in the season’s opening game.
The Bees love to attack. No side scored more goals on the road than Brentford in the second-tier Championship last season and they could cause Crystal Palace plenty of problems at Selhurst Park.
Palace lost 3-0 to Chelsea on matchday one and managed only one shot on target against the Blues.
Brentford are full of confidence and can make it two wins from two against their London rivals.
Both these sides started the new season with a loss, mainly due to their poor defenses.
Aston Villa conceded three goals in a defeat at Watford, while Newcastle let in four at home to West Ham, so the goals could flow when the teams meet at Villa Park on Saturday.
Newcastle’s problems on defense have been long-standing. They conceded 62 goals in 2020-21 but they have some lively attacking options of their own, which points to them being able to find the net against Villa. Take both teams to score in the game.
