Four English Premier League fixtures on Saturday offer some tasty parlay angles. Here are our best combinations with boosted combined odds.
English Premier League Parlay Picks – Saturday August 22, 2026
Saturday brings four English Premier League fixtures kicking off in the afternoon and evening, and the markets are throwing up some genuinely interesting angles. With the season just getting underway, the standings are blank slates — which means we lean on squad quality, tactical identity, and market signals to find value. Let's break down the best legs and build out two strong parlay combinations.
Fixture-by-Fixture Breakdown
Ipswich Town vs Sunderland – 15:00 UTC
This is a fixture that looks tightly contested on paper, with Ipswich priced as modest favourites at +175 (DraftKings) and Sunderland not far behind at +165 (Bally Bet). The draw is available at +240 (Hard Rock Bet), suggesting the books expect a cagey opener between two sides still finding their early-season rhythm.
The total line is set at 2.5, and the Over 2.5 at -108 (Bally Bet) is the most attractive price on the board — that's well below the standard -115 to -120 you'd typically see on a 2.5 total. With both teams likely to press forward aggressively in an early-season fixture where points feel urgent, we like the Over here. BTTS No at +115 (DraftKings) is a mild value flag if you think one side blanks, but the Over 2.5 at -108 is our pick from this game.
Everton vs Crystal Palace – 15:00 UTC
Everton open as slight home favourites at +120 (DraftKings), while Crystal Palace are a juicy +250 (Hard Rock Bet) away. The draw at +250 (theScore Bet) is effectively priced the same as a Palace win — that's a rare thing and worth noting. The market is essentially saying this is a three-way coin flip leaning fractionally toward Everton.
We like Everton at home here. Goodison Park remains a fortress early in the season, and Crystal Palace tend to start slowly under any new or settled regime. The Over 2.5 at -114 (Bally Bet) isn't particularly generous, but given the attacking threats on both sides, it's serviceable as a parlay leg. The more interesting angle is pairing Everton ML with another leg for added punch.
Nottingham Forest vs Leeds United – 15:00 UTC
Nottingham Forest are priced at +132 (Bally Bet) at home against Leeds United, who come in at +220 (Hard Rock Bet). Forest have been a solid home side in recent seasons and should back that up against a Leeds outfit that always carries attacking intent but can be vulnerable defensively on the road.
The Over 2.5 at -103 (Bally Bet) is the standout value on the board from all four fixtures. Getting a 2.5 total at virtually even money is excellent value — the market is essentially saying goals are roughly 50-50, but our lean is that Forest's attacking play and Leeds' open style makes a three-goal game very likely. This is a strong standalone value bet and an excellent parlay leg.
Brentford vs Tottenham Hotspur – 17:30 UTC
The evening kick-off is the headline fixture. Brentford are live home underdogs at +145 (Bally Bet) against Tottenham Hotspur at +175 (DraftKings). The draw comes in at +270 (theScore Bet) — the longest draw price of the day, suggesting the books expect a result one way or another.
The big story here is the total. The Under 2.5 is priced at +120 (Bally Bet) — that's a positive-money Under on a 2.5 total, which is genuinely unusual and screams value. The market is heavily implying Over (the Over 2.5 is -152), yet you can get the Under at plus-money. If you believe Brentford will sit deep and frustrate Spurs early in the season, that +120 Under is a fantastic value leg. BTTS No at +146 (FanDuel) aligns with this low-scoring lean and is another excellent value flag.
Recommended Parlay Combinations
Parlay 1 – The Goals Parlay (3 legs)
- Ipswich Town vs Sunderland – Over 2.5 goals at -108 (Bally Bet)
- Nottingham Forest vs Leeds United – Over 2.5 goals at -103 (Bally Bet)
- Brentford vs Tottenham Hotspur – Under 2.5 goals at +120 (Bally Bet)
Combined odds: approximately +270. The first two legs are supported by open, attacking team styles and the third capitalises on that exceptional plus-money Under at Brentford. Getting a positive-money return on a three-leg parlay with two strong favourite totals is excellent value.
Parlay 2 – Mixed Markets Value Parlay (3 legs)
- Everton to win (H2H) at +120 (DraftKings)
- Nottingham Forest vs Leeds United – Over 2.5 goals at -103 (Bally Bet)
- Brentford vs Tottenham Hotspur – BTTS No at +146 (FanDuel)
Combined odds: approximately +390. This parlay mixes a home win, a goals total, and a BTTS No across different fixtures — exactly the kind of cross-market combination that avoids single-game variance. Everton at home offers solid base value, the Forest-Leeds Over is near even money, and the BTTS No at Brentford at +146 is the value kicker that pushes the combined price into genuinely exciting territory.
Best Standalone Value Bet
If you're playing a single, the Brentford vs Tottenham Hotspur Under 2.5 at +120 (Bally Bet) is the standout. A plus-money Under on a 2.5 total in a Premier League fixture is rare, and the market's heavy lean toward the Over (-152) suggests sharp interest on the Under may not yet be fully priced in. Back it before the line moves.
