The Premier League serves up seven fixtures across England on Saturday.

Newcastle United get the action underway at 12.30pm as they welcome Bournemouth to St James’ Park.

The traditional 3pm slot is a busy one: Sunderland head to the capital to face Brentford, Brighton & Hove Albion host Leeds United on the south coast, Fulham and Crystal Palace meet in an all‑London clash at Craven Cottage, Coventry City travel to the Etihad to take on Manchester City, and Nottingham Forest face Tottenham Hotspur with both sides still searching for their first win of the campaign.

The day rounds off at 5.30pm from the MKM Stadium, where Hull City look to continue their brilliant start against a struggling Aston Villa.

Now, let’s take a closer look at some Premier League odds and Premier League betting angles for Saturday’s fixtures:

Brentford v Sunderland – Saturday, 3pm

View all available markets at William Hill

Brentford narrowly missed out on European football last season on goal difference, a painful blow for the Bees faithful, but optimism remains high in west London that Keith Andrews’ side can produce something similar this time around, especially given the way they’ve started the campaign.
The Bees return to home soil on Saturday and should be confident of collecting three points, as they’re unbeaten in their four home games against Sunderland in all competitions — a run that includes a 3–0 victory back in January.
We could be in for goals, too. Eight of Brentford’s last ten Saturday fixtures have produced at least three goals, while William Hill make the Bees 13/20 favourites to chalk up another league win.

Sunderland shocked many last season, their first campaign back in the Premier League ending with a superb seventh‑place finish that secured UEFA Europa League football and defied the betting markets.
However, concerns have already surfaced about whether the Black Cats can cope with the added demands of European competition. They head into Saturday’s clash having finally picked up their first win of the new campaign, a hard‑fought 1–0 victory over Fulham.
The Black Cats make the trip south to the capital this weekend, but it’s not been a happy hunting ground for them over the years — they’ve won just two of their last sixteen Premier League games in London. Punters can back Sunderland at 4/1 with William Hill to improve that poor run of form.

Brighton & Hove Albion v Leeds United – Saturday, 3pm

Think there’s value? See the current price at William Hill

Brighton blew Aston Villa away 4–0 in their curtain‑raiser and were ruthless in front of goal again on Sunday, even if they left west London with nothing to show for it after a frantic 4–3 defeat to Chelsea.
The Seagulls head back to the south coast with the chance to win their first two home league games of a season for the first time since their 2016/17 campaign and for the first time ever in the top flight.
Fabian Hürzeler’s side should fancy their chances of taking all three points, too, given they’re unbeaten in their last ten home league meetings with Leeds United (W7, D3). Punters can back Brighton to extend that record at 19/20 with William Hill.

Daniel Farke is getting a real tune out of his side. Leeds opened their campaign with back‑to‑back wins over Nottingham Forest in league and cup action, before coming from behind at Elland Road last weekend to snatch a point against Brentford.
Leeds did edge this fixture 1–0 back in May, but that came on home soil, and it remains their only victory over Brighton in their last eight attempts across all competitions. They’ve never managed consecutive top‑flight wins against the Seagulls.
The Yorkshire side have become a seriously tough outfit to beat, losing just two of their last fifteen matches in all competitions. William Hill have priced Farke’s men at 27/10 to take all three points at the Amex.

Fulham v Crystal Palace – Saturday, 3pm

See the latest odds on this match

Fulham kicked off their campaign with a defeat to Chelsea and followed that up with a 1–0 loss at Sunderland last weekend, a game in which they failed to register a single shot on target, quite concerning for the Cottagers.
History suggests Alvaro Arbeloa may have to wait a little longer for his first Premier League win as Fulham boss, with the Cottagers winning just two of their last thirteen league meetings against Crystal Palace (D6, L5) with both of those victories coming away from home.
Having lost to Arsenal back in May and then Chelsea in their curtain‑raiser, Fulham are now looking to avoid losing three Premier League derbies in a row for the first time since 2023. William Hill price a home win at 5/4.

It’s been a tough start for Pierre Sage at Crystal Palace. The Eagles are one of just five sides yet to pick up a point this season following defeats to Everton and Manchester City, scoring only once across those two games.
Palace do, however, have a strong recent record at Craven Cottage to lean on — they’re unbeaten in their last seven visits (W4, D3) — and they’ve lost just one of their last six London derbies away from home, which should offer this group a bit of confidence.
Defensively, though, there are clear concerns. Palace have now conceded two or more goals in each of their last eight Premier League matches, while six of their last seven trips to Craven Cottage have seen them score at least twice themselves. That combination suggests there could be value in a 2–2 draw with William Hill.

Hull City v Aston Villa – Saturday, 5.30pm

See the latest odds on this match

Hull City defied the betting odds last season to secure promotion to the Premier League, returning to the top flight for the first time since the 2016/17 campaign — and they’ve already delivered one of the shocks of the season with that superb 2–0 victory over Manchester United in their curtain‑raiser.
The Tigers welcome Aston Villa on the back of an impressive 1–0 win away at Coventry City last weekend, exactly the sort of result they’ll need to grind out if they’re to stay in the division. It’s been a fantastic start.
Hull could even become just the second newly promoted side in Premier League history to win their opening three matches, with Bolton the only team to manage it back in 2001. Punters can back the Tigers to keep the momentum going at 29/10 with William Hill.

Aston Villa enjoyed a memorable campaign last season, finishing fourth in the Premier League and lifting the UEFA Europa League, but there are question marks heading into the new term especially following back-to-back defeats in the Premier League.
Aston Villa’s start to the season has been a real concern. Not only have they failed to score in their opening two games, they’re the only side in the top flight yet to register a shot on target, no Premier League team has gone without one in their first three matches since the 2003/04 campaign.
This, however, is a fixture Villa usually handle well. They’ve won eleven of their last sixteen meetings with Hull City, losing just once in that run, and the Villans can be backed at 17/20 with William Hill to finally kick‑start their campaign.
