Only two matchdays remain in the 2025-26 English Premier League season, and at this point, it appears that Arsenal is on track to hoist the trophy for the first time in 22 years. They're a -475 favorite to fend off second-place Manchester City (+350). 

If you're looking to get in on the action this weekend, then you've come to the right place. Below, I'll dive into three of this weekend's matches from a sports betting perspective, laying out my arguments for why I'm laying my money where I am.

Premier League Matchday 37 Preview & Best Bets (2026)

(Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)

Manchester United (-155) vs. Nottingham Forest (+330), DRAW (+380) | O/U 2.5 (-170/+135

Let's pick it up on Sunday morning, where we have a fun battle between Manchester United (18-11-7, 65 points) and Nottingham Forest (11-10-15, 43 points). Forest has picked up a point in eight straight matches, and they're now safe from any relegation chances. Kick-off is scheduled for 7:30 a.m. ET from Old Trafford in Manchester. 

I'm bumping this total up to 3.0 goals and taking the over. One of the key reasons for Forest's recent success has been the blossoming of their offense. During their current 4-4-0 unbeaten stretch in Premier League play, the Tricky Trees are averaging 2.4 goals per match. They've produced at least three combined goals in five of those eight contests. 

Meanwhile, Manchester United has been tremendous offensively this season. They're third in scoring (63 goals) and lead the league in shots on target (200). United, in its last nine Premier League outings, has combined for at least three goals on seven occasions. Factor in the head-to-head history, where these clubs have seen 3+ goals in five of their last seven league matches, and I think we're primed for fireworks at Old Trafford to start the weekend. 

Pick: Alternate Over 3.0 Goals (-125)


Bournemouth (+350) vs. Manchester City (-155), DRAW (+340) | O/U 3.5 (+110/-145

We have a couple of matches scheduled on Tuesday, with the reason being that Chelsea and Manchester City are squaring off in the FA Cup Final on Saturday morning. City (23-8-5, 77 points) resumes its Premier League title chase on Tuesday against sixth-place Bournemouth (13-16-7, 55 points). This match gets underway at 2:30 p.m. ET from Vitality Stadium in Bournemouth. 

While Manchester City is in desperate need of wins to close out the campaign, they're far from a sure-thing on Tuesday against Bournemouth. I don't really have an anti-City slant here, aside from maybe that they'll have a letdown performance coming off of the FA Cup contest on Saturday. 

This play is all about Bournemouth. The Cherries have been very competitive at home this year, going 7-9-2 in 18 home matches. They've covered a +0.5 line in 16 of those 18 matches. Their 19 goals against at home is the fourth-best mark in the league.

Bournemouth is also in spectacular form overall, going an unbeaten 8-8-0 in their last 16 Premier League contests. They've logged back-to-back clean sheets in their two games this month as well. I think we have to take a +115 flier to say they at least grind out a draw and cover the +0.5 spread. 

Pick: Bournemouth +0.5 (+115)


Chelsea (+110) vs. Tottenham (+210), DRAW (+285) | O/U 2.5 (-175/+130

The action wraps up in the capital city on Tuesday, with ninth-place Chelsea (13-10-13, 49 points) taking on 17th-place Tottenham (9-11-16, 38 points). The Lilywhites have gone 2-2-0 in their last four matches, and they're now a couple of points clear of the relegation line. Kick-off is set for 3:15 p.m. ET from Stamford Bridge in London. 

I mentioned that perhaps we could see a letdown performance from City above. However, if I'm being honest, I would more expect to see that from floundering Chelsea on Tuesday. The Blues have been on a miserable run in the Premier League, going 0-1-6 in their last seven matches. 

Meanwhile, Tottenham has been gaining momentum, as they continue to fight for their Premier League livelihood. Spurs have logged a point in four straight matches, including winning two consecutive road outings. Interestingly, Tottenham has gone a respectable 7-5-6 on the road with a +1 goal differential (25:24) this season. I'll back them at +0.5 against struggling Chelsea. 

Pick: Tottenham +0.5 (-145)
