Premier League predictions: Jones Knows is backing Manchester ... (Sky Sports)

Match highlights of every Premier League game this season to be shown on the Sky Sports website and app; watch Newcastle vs Wolves, Aston Villa vs Tottenham ...

And all that noise can inflate the draw to a backable price, which it has done here at 13/5 with Sky Bet. He looks to have improved his ability in getting into more dangerous areas of the pitch with a return of eight Premier League goals this season to show for it. That matches his best return in a Premier League season and he still has 10 games to go. No player in the Premier League without a goal in that period has managed more shots on goal than Mac Allister (25) with seven of those coming in the 0-0 draw with Norwich. On another day he could have had a couple of goals to his name as two of those efforts were just a whisker away. That is a fair sample size and one we should take huge confidence from when assessing the goal-line in this fixture. Even without factoring in the Antonio angle, the case for a home win is strong based on Brentford's performance metrics at their own ground this season. He'll be tested up against Raphinha in this one and I like his price of picking up a card. What is in their favour here is that one goal probably will be enough to beat Brighton, who have failed to score in six of their last seven Premier League matches. His performances have reached another level over the past two months to such an extent he started his first match for Argentina in their World Cup qualifier with Venezuela. Eddie Howe has only lost one of his 10 Premier League home matches with that solitary defeat coming at the hands of Manchester City. The positive atmosphere at St James' Park and around the club in general is certainly creating a tough environment for visiting teams. He'll be tasked with keeping a lid on Sancho and that looks a battle the United winger can win. The bet that stands out here is his first goalscorer price of 9/1 with Sky Bet.
