The Sporting Life Accumulator has landed for the second week running! 🙌pic.twitter.com/YZk9M0YK9u
You love to see it. Send us those winning bet slips. Two weeks in a row! 12/1 and 18/1. We'll be back with another next week!
SIX minutes into added time - huge goal for the Gunners. Boos all-round at the Emirates at full-time. Big point for Southampton, nevertheless. It also denies us six away wins in the Premier League.
LACA AGAIN!#ARSSOU 🔴 2-2 ⚫️ (90) pic.twitter.com/vHFK2x0CTI
— Arsenal (@Arsenal) November 23, 2019
At half-time it looked like no chance - Rotherham being 2-0 down. Fast-forward 45 minutes and Stoke's injury-time winner means it's landing again!
We had a 12/1 winner last week and 18/1 this time around. Please hold on! Did you back it?
Everton 0-2 Norwich (Srbeny): The Canaries end a seven-game winless run and pile the pressure on Marco Silva.
Watford 0-3 Burnley (Tarkowski): Dream land for the Clarets
And in the Sky Bet Championship, Leeds and West Brom have scored late goals to close in on 2-1 wins.
90 - Zanzala grabs our seventh goal of the game, with the referee then adding an additional two minutes at the end of the second half. [#asfc 7-1 #bwfc] #OurStanley

The Hornets staying bottom, the Clarets up to sixth as Barnes' penalty just about squeezes past Ben Foster.
The set piece comes in, Van Dijk's initial effort is blocked, he mishits the next chance and it falls to Firmino who dispatches. Champions doing what champions do? They have done it on a number of occasions this term. Of course, this time with a little help from sloppy Palace defending.
He has not scored all season, but on his 14th appearance Wilfried Zaha scores against the league leaders!
Excellent play by Townsend and Benteke in the build-up to create space for the Ivorian, who fired past Alisson. Five plus added time to go in that one.
See what we did there? Leicester have a penalty and Vardy's effort is saved by Ryan initially, but the rebound is followed up by Maddison.
A VAR review adjudged him to have been encroaching and ordered a retake, with Vardy converting.
A colleague has just pointed out an interesting observation - all six of the top flight games have the away team winning. Surely that could not have happened often in the past?! Just think of the price on that six-fold.
Tierney pulls Ings' shirt in the box and after a VAR review the spot-kick is given. James Ward-Prowse, making his 250th Saints appearance today, has his initial effort saved by Leno but the Englishman nets the follow-up.
Winless in five games in all competitions. What does Unai Emery do now? Around 20 minutes to hold on!
Maddison nearly doubles the Foxes' tally with a goal incredibly similar to their first. Vardy finds the England international but goalkeeper Ryan makes an excellent double save.
Unai Emery's side fortunate not to be behind again after more terrible defending. Sokratis dallied and Cedric nearly capitalised.
Possession is 61-39 in Arsenal's favour, but the Saints have had more efforts and it would certainly be a hard-earned point for them here.
Shortly after going so close, Perez takes his next chance to put the Foxes ahead after great vision by Jamie Vardy. The latter has a great chance to make it two within minutes but goalkeeper Ryan makes a vital block.
Watford 0-1 Burnley (Wood): Dwight McNeil's out-swinging cross finds James Tarkowski who squares it across goal and New Zealand forward Wood finishes instinctively.
Bournemouth 1-2 Wolves ( : 10-man Cherries pull one back at the Vitality as Steve Cook meets a corner at the near post. Double half-time change paying off. His sixth goal in seven.
None of the top four in the Championship are leading - West Brom and Leeds just conceded so they are both drawing 1-1.
A big goal at Goodison as Todd Cantwell coolly finishes a one-on-one past Jordan Pickford.
With Pellegrini losing, Emery and Silva dropping points at home, the sack race could get very interesting as it stands...
GOOOOOOOOALLLL TODD CANTWELL!!!#EVENOR 0-1 (55) pic.twitter.com/Asiymuekl0
— Norwich City FC (@NorwichCityFC) November 23, 2019
Nuno's side have the ball in the back of the net for the third time this afternoon, this time Jota, but his effort is ruled out - probably unfortunately - after a one-two with Jimenez, who is judged to have been offside. That should not prove too costly, luckily.
After just going so close to taking the lead, the Reds keep on top and Mane takes his chance well.
Mane has nine goals for the season in the league and the Merseysiders have never lost when he has scored for them.
Gradually getting back underway.
Can Palace hold on against Liverpool? Will Leicester take advantage and close the gap? What about struggling Watford? Stay with us to find out!
🤔 Can Manchester City bounce back from their defeat to Liverpool?

🔵 Frank Lampard's exciting Chelsea side are next up at the Etihad!
🔎 We take a look at the betting...
Alexander-Arnold gives away a sloppy free-kick in the corner, it gets whipped in and takes a slight deflection off Wijnaldum before making its way to Tomkins at the far post who converts!
After a VAR review for a foul on Lovren by Ayew, it is ruled out. Whether the Croatian defender would have been able to jump to clear it is doubtful. Interesting decision and a huge blow for Palace after keeping the leaders out so far.
After consulting the VAR, referee Kevin Friend has overturned the goal because there was a foul by Jordan Ayew on Dejan Lovren in the build-up

Crystal Palace 0-0 Liverpool (45 mins)#CRYLIV https://t.co/xmUUptKVXc
Leaders Liverpool are level at Crystal Palace, but the hosts have had their fair share of chances.
38'- CLOSE! Van Dijk wins a header from a corner, which goes dangerously towards the back post but is cleared away at the final moment.

Things go from bad to worse for Bournemouth. After going two down, Simon Francis - starting his first Premier League game in 11 months (Boxing Day, to be precise) - is off for an early bath after receiving his second booking. Nightmare afternoon.
Wolves double their lead through Raul Jimenez, the Mexican striker who now has six league goals to his name this term.
Great ball by Traore and Jimenez just has to finish from close range. If you read our match-by-match Premier League tips, you'll have seen us tip the visitors to score at least two goals at 29/20. And they've done it in the first half!
A long way back for the Cherries here. That will be a run of just one win in their last eight in all competitions.
Nine games taking place this afternoon but just two goals.
Bradley Dack put Blackburn up against Barnsley, with new manager Gerhard Struber, while West Brom lead the table as it stands thanks to Hal Robson-Kanu's strike against Sheffield Wednesday.
Brilliant strike to put Nuno Espirito Santo's side ahead. A free-kick from the wing whips across goal and into the far corner. Wolves looking to extend their run to just one defeat in 13.
OOOOOHHHHH MOUTINHOOOOOO!! pic.twitter.com/qrA4OZkzHS

The only Premier League 3pm kick-off with goals so far as the Gunners draw level. Tierney's cross finds Aubameyang whose effort is blocked and it falls kindly to Lacazette in the box and the Frenchman dispatches. Unai Emery needed that to ease the nerves at the Emirates.
Jordan Ayew should be putting the hosts ahead there. Great work by Kouyate and the forward mishits it and fails to find the target.
The first Premier League goal of the 3pm kick-offs!
Calamitous defending from the hosts and Danny Ings continues his great start with his eighth goal of the season. He has netted against Liverpool, Spurs, Chelsea and now Arsenal this term.
A great finish by him after a quickly taken free-kick.
There was a pause ahead of Watford v Burnley as Hornets defender Craig Dawson complained of dizziness. After a couple of minutes, he decides he can start and we are now underway there.
Harvey Barnes whips the ball in and Ayoze Perez meets it in the box, heading against the woodwork. Lively start for the Foxes at the Amex.
Here we go! Good luck to your teams, with your wagers and enjoy the action!
Kick-off is just moments away!
After Charlton's 2-2 draw with Cardiff in the early kick-off, here's how things look going into the 3pm kick-offs.

Manuel Pellegrini is now EVENS with Sky Bet to be the next Premier League manager to leave his job. He faces a big task to turn it around at the London Stadium after such a poor run. They spent big in the summer.
Kick-off is nearly here, but you still have time to get your weekend wagers in. Take your pick:
Leicester were on a roll before the international break and Brendan Rodgers will be hoping they can continue where they left off.
Brighton have made improvements under Graham Potter and have won three of their last five, including against Spurs at the Amex, and will give it a good go on Saturday.
This Foxes side, though, looks to have a great mindset under Rodgers and they should just edge the Seagulls, although the break could mean it's closer than they would like.
A nice price we are opting for is in the scoring markets - on a midfielder who contributes a lot in the final third and is available at 11/2 anytime.
Belgium international Youri Tielemans has five goals and five assists for the Foxes this term in all competitions, averaging just over two shots per game in the Premier League.
He had four efforts in the win over Arsenal last time out and has registered a total of six in the previous three games before that.
He has not scored in a couple of games and is due. With the positions he gets in, late runs into the box and a tendency to shoot on sight, this price makes the 22-year-old well worth a small play.
Super 6 prediction: Brighton 1-2 Leicester (Sky Bet odds: 8/1)
Best bet: Youri Tielemans to score anytime at 11/2
⚽️🙌 Last weekend's Sporting Life Accumulator won at 12/1, so here's Saturday's offering...
