Man Utd vs Newcastle Preview:
Manchester United will be looking to get back to winning ways and recover from their defeat against Aston Villa at the weekend. The Red Devils have improved over the past few weeks but cannot put a good run together. Recent home form has been worrying with no wins from their last three games. Newcastle drew 2-2 with Chelsea in their last game but they were leading and will be overall disappointed. It's just one win in four games and the club keep stalling in this campaign and are in 12th place. From 8 games played away Eddie Howe's side have won just once but they look to be playing a fairly depleted Manchester United side.
Key players out:
Manchester United: Bruno Fernandes, Harry Maguire, Bryan Mbeumo, Amad Diallo
Newcastle: Jamaal Lascelles, Sven Botman, Dan Burn, Kiernan Trippier
Prediction: 1-1 draw
Recommended Betting Tips: Full time result (Draw) at 3.60, Correct Score: 1-1 at 6.40, Anytime goalscorer: Anthony Elanga at 4.33, Anytime goalscorer: Yoane Wissa at 2.75, Newcastle to score first at 2.10
Nottm Forest vs Man City Preview:
Nottingham Forest were beaten away against Fulham on Monday evening and that just kept the club in the relegation radar although they are still 5 points ahead of 18th placed West Ham. Form has been a mixed bag for Sean Dyche's side and they have lost three of five games played. Manchester City are in blistering form having won five games in a row and they are in 2nd place and just 2 points behind Arsenal. Away form has been more suspect for City with 3 defeats from 8 games although they have managed to win their last two in a row.
Key players out:
Nottingham Forest: Willy Boly, Ibrahim Sangare, Chris Wood, Ryan Yates, Jeremy Doku, Rodri
Manchester City: Omar Marmoush, John Stones,

Arsenal vs Brighton Preview:
Arsenal remain in 1st place but they have both Manchester City and Aston Villa in hot pursuit and only 3 points separates the clubs heading into this weekend. The Gunners had to play in midweek as they knocked out Crystal Palace from the Carabao Cup in a game that had to be settled on penalties. At home Arsenal are unbeaten and have only shipped 3 goals. Brighton are in 9th place however they have gone their last 4 games without a win. On the road so far they have lost 50% of their matches and were beaten 2-0 in their last away game against Liverpool.

Brentford vs Bournemouth Preview:
Brentford won their first game in four attempts last week as they beat Wolves away from home. This was an expected result against the rock bottom side. The Bees are in 12th place but could push into the top 10 depending on other results. Bournemouth are struggling after a strong start and have nosedived to 15th place and earned just 8 points from their last ten games. It's also just one win on the road so far and a loss rate of 50% on the road.

Apart from Wolves Burnley have been the worst team in the league so far. The club have lost 12 of 17 games although managed a draw last week against Bournemouth. However Burnley have slipped 7 points from safety and remain in 19th place. Everton have had a solid season and come into this match in 10th place and will be pleased to have 24 points at this stage. The Toffees have lost their last two games in a row but this was against Chelsea and Arsenal. Away form for David Moyes side has been mixed however it is just one defeat from their last four games.

Liverpool vs Wolves Preview:
Liverpool's form has picked up in recent weeks and they have earned 11 points from their last 15 on offer. The Reds recorded a good 2-1 victory over Tottenham away in their last game. Liverpool are in 5th place with 29 points but have slipped seven points from 3rd. Wolves are on course to have the worst ever Premier League record and afrer 17 games they still have no wins. The club only have 2 points and have only scored twice away from home. Liverpool be the huge odds on favourites to win this game and any other result would be perhaps the biggest surprise of the season.

Wolves: Rodrigo Gomes, Toti
Prediction: 4-0 to Liverpool

West Ham vs Fulham Preview:
This London derby will be tense for West Ham as these have become worrying times for Nuno Espirto Santo's side. West Ham have fallen 5 points from safety after picking up just 2 points from their last 15. At home West Ham would rank in 19th place and they have picked up just 6 points from 24. Fulham have climbed to 13th after winning back to back games against Nottingham Forest and Burnley. On the road the Cottagers have a poor record however they have won their last two games.
Key players out:
West Ham: Aaron Wan-Bissaka
Fulham: Samuel Chukwueze, Rodrigo Muniz, Alex Iwobi
Prediction: 1-0 to West Ham
Recommended Betting Tips: West Ham to beat Fulham at 2.50, Under 2.5 goals at 2.00, First goalscorer: Jarrod Bowen at 6.00
Chelsea vs Aston Villa Preview:
This game looks set to be the most mouthwatering one of the weekend. Chelsea have been hot and cold but have managed to go their last 3 games without defeat. The Blues though have slipped seven points behind Aston Villa and 10 behind league leaders Arsenal. At home Chelsea have only managed to win 50% of their games although it's just one defeat from their last six. Aston Villa have won 10 of 11 league games and have been the best team in the league over the past two months. They have marched up to 3rd place and are just three points behind Arsenal.

Sunderland vs Leeds Preview:
The Black Cats would have certainly taken 7th place and 27 points after 17 games played and the newly promoted side have had an excellent campaign so far. Recent form has been a mixed bag as draws crop up but it's only one loss in their last four. Leeds are in 16th and not out of danger but there have been positives of late and Daniel Farke's side have gone their last four games unbeaten. Forward Dominic Calvert-Lewin is banging in the goals too and the club has sprinted six points clear of the relegation zone. Away form remains a worry though with just one victory so far.
Key players out:
Sunderland: Bertrand Traore, Luke O'Nein, Habib Diarra
Leeds: Daniel James, Sean Longstaff, Lucas Nmecha
Prediction: 2-1 to Sunderland
Recommended Betting Tips: Sunderland to beat Leeds at 2.60, Both teams to score at 1.91, Anytime goalscorer: William Isidor at 3.00, Sunderland to score 2+ goals at 2.75
Crystal Palace vs Tottenham Preview:
It's not been an easy week for Crystal Palace given that they were knocked out of a rescheduled Carabao Cup against Arsenal in midweek although they did take the Gunners to a penalty shootout. Losing 4-1 away to Leeds last weekend was not in the script though and so they head into this game with 2 league defeats in a row. At home it's no wins in 3 and their majority result is a draw. Tottenham are in 14th and four points behind their hosts. Thomas Frank's side have only won 8 points from their last 30 and while having solid away form they are winless in their last three games.
Key players out:
Crystal Palace: Cheick Doucoure, Daniel Munoz, Chadi Riad
Tottenham: Xavi Simons, Destiny Udogie, Cristian Romero, Dominic Solanke
Prediction: 2-2 draw
Recommended Betting Tips: Draw at Half Time at 2.10, Correct Score: 2-2 or 3-3 at 16.00 and 51.00, Anytime goalscorer: Brennan Johnson at 4.00, Jean Mateta to score 2+ goals at 8.00, Tottenham to score 2+ goals at 2.75
