We go again.


LAS VEGAS — Here it is.
Round five, Friday through Sunday fixtures are ready as Premier League action is here and Matchweek 5 is all systems go.
From the betting perspective, MW4 was a mixed bag. It was a 2-2 ledger including satisfaction of my feature play, the *Best Bet by Darkseid Sports*.

Moving on , I’m back again to rejoin the winning ethos — with optimism to include — another conversion of the *Best Bet by Darkseid Sports.
Here is the deal for MW5:

BEST BET SUPERFACT

MY TAKE
For the *Best Bet by Darkseid Sports* for MW5, it’s a play on Everton and Ipswich Town to ascend over the posted total of 2.5 goals when the two clubs meet Saturday evening at Hill Dickinson Stadium. Very simply, IPS fixtures turn into track meets. I just think goals are the menu. There is some reservation with Everton having Wednesday EFL Cup play and for the simple fact the Toffees don’t score all that much. That is until they meet up with the Tractor Boys. EVEIPS OV 2.5 (-35) is your *Best Bet by Darkseid Sports* for Premier League Matchweek 5.
PRICE CHECK
The average price of the four actions pursuant to this release of “The Premier League Prologue” was -133.


FC Record YTD: 1-3-0
— ⚽️: Player Prop: D. Calvert-Lewin (LEE) 2+ SoT (+35).
📚: BetMGM
I passed on this to focus on other positions. I liked LEE in 90+ minutes better. This didn’t qualify for PropDuster Special status.
