Aston Villa vs Liverpool Bet Builder Tips: Tuesday May 10th

I’ve gone for a Tuesday evening bet builder at odds of 11.00, as Aston Villa play host to Liverpool and with the visitors ceding ground to Manchester City, the title race has seen Pep Guardiola’s men find an extra gear.

Not only that but the Etihad outfit also have a better goal difference and with such a metric almost acting as an extra point at this stage of the season, it has made Liverpool’s pursuit of the Premier League trophy even more difficult.

However, a title race is never run until the finishing line is crossed and with Liverpool playing 24 hours before the current league leaders, they do have a chance to ask a question of their nearest rivals.

Of course, with City having such a superior goal difference, it means Liverpool are going to have to start putting opposition outfits to the sword and after dropping two points at home to Tottenham on Saturday, they will now look to return to winning ways at Villa Park.

Then again, the Premier League scriptwriters have devised quite a subplot for Tuesday and with Aston Villa now under the watchful eye of manager Steven Gerrard, his Merseyside connection is not one that can be forgotten.

Because in an ideal world, the former Rangers manager would love to see Liverpool win a second league title in three seasons and were it not for that slip, he would have led the Merseyside men to the title in 2014.

Although Gerrard may have to play the role of begrudging spoiler instead and with his side getting the better of Burnley last weekend, they have also reinvigorated their chances of a top-ten finish at the end of the season.

Whether they can further increase those chances by getting something on Tuesday remains to be seen and with Liverpool knowing that goals are at more of a premium than before, they will look for a rather comprehensive win in the West Midlands.

Which means the result and goals markets is of interest before kick-off and with a Liverpool win plus a total of over 2.5 currently priced at 2.05, this is something that should certainly be worth your consideration.

While when looking at the race for the Premier League Golden Boot, it is no longer the foregone conclusion it once was and with Mohamed Salah certainly due a goal, backing the Egyptian forward to score anytime at odds of 1.83 comes recommended.

Before Tuesday’s Premier League clash, I have focused primarily on goals and a Liverpool halftime win. With over three goals in total and more of these coming after the interval, I also believe that a Sadio Mane shot on target will help get this one over the line.

WHAT IS A BET BUILDER?

A bet builder is a kind of accumulator bet solely focussed on one match. A standard acca features multiple selections across different selections combined together into one bet. If one selection loses, the whole bet loses. A bet builder is similar but each selection is placed on the same match. Similar to the American prop bet, the bet builder goes into detail on a single match. Common selections include match outcome, total goals, cards, corners, and players to score.
