Jimmy the Punt shares his weekly goalscorer tips for a 25/1 Saturday Premier League treble featuring Manchester City’s Julien Alvarez.
12:30 Saturday
Liverpool vs Everton - Dominic Calvert Lewin
Advised Bet: 1pt @ 10/3 (Betfair, Paddy Power)
The cynosure of this weekend's Premier League slate takes place at Anfield where Liverpool welcome local rivals Everton for the first Merseyside derby of the season.
The hosts are third favourites for the title and look to be mounting a reputable title charge winning seven games on the spin.
Form counts for little in a derby though, everyone knows that which is part of the reason Everton’s price appeals.
The Toffees turned a corner against Doncaster in the League Cup, form that coincides with the debut of Beto.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin is back fit and has dislodged the acquisition from Atalanta.
The frontman is averaging 0.86 xG per 90, his highest total since joining Everton, and scored three in three last month. Siding with the man in form at a tasty price seems logical.
15:00 Saturday
Brentford vs Burnley - Bryan Mbeumo
Advised Bet:1.5pts @ 17/10 (Betfair, Paddy Power)
The bookies do not fancy Burnley this weekend as the Premier League new boys head to Brentford, I cannot see them getting much from the game either.
The Clarets have shipped 20 goals this campaign, a tally only Sheffield United can trump and they conceded eight in one game.
@JimmyThePunt has another weekly goalscorer treble that pays 25/1, including:

The Bees are a shade of odds on to score at least two goals on Saturday and with the hosts clearly fancied to be amongst the goals, it makes sense to side with their talisman Bryan Mbeumo.
The frontman has scored four league goals from an xG of 4.70, that is a goals per 90 average of 0.50.
15:00 Saturday
Man City vs Brighton - Julian Alvarez
Advised Bet: 1.5pts @ 11/8 (bet365)
Manchester City’s game with Brighton stinks of goals, over 2.5 is as short as 1/3 meaning the implied probability of the net bulging three or more times at the Etihad on Saturday is 75%.
Julien Alvarez’s price of 11/8 appeals.The World Cup winner has filled the void left by an injured Kevin De Bruyne picking up the Belgians creative mantra.
Alvarez has found the net three times domestically, a third of last season's tally, and assisted as many.
Across all competitions, Alvarez has had a direct hand in 10 goals and should be amongst them here.
