Sunday's Games:
Chelsea vs Fulham Preview:
This London derby is always special and Chelsea should have a spring in their step after putting 5 goals past another London side West Ham. After two games the Blues have 4 points and will be the favourites to win this Saturday lunchtime clash. Fulham did well to come back against Manchester United last weekend to draw 1-1 and they will be up and ready for this derby but after drawing their first game at home Enzo Maresca's side really need to win this one.
Key players out:
Chelsea: Christopher Nkunku, Mykhailo Mudryk, Ben Chilwell, Romeo Lavia
Fulham: None
Prediction: 2-0 to Chelsea
Recommended Betting Tips: Chelsea to beat Fulham at 1.57, Anytime goalscorer: João Pedro at 2.20, Anytime goalscorer: Liam Delap at 2.50, Chelsea to score 2+ goals at 1.57
Man Utd vs Burnley Preview:
Manchester United have had a poor start to the season with just 1 point won from 6 but it got even worse in midweek. Ruben Amorim's side were knocked out of the league cup by Grimsby on penalties after the game had finished 2-2. This really feels like a new low for them and there will be major question marks if United do not win on Saturday. Burnley beat Sunderland last weekend but in their last away game they were soundly beaten 3-0 against Tottenham. The Clarets remain one of the favourites to be relegated.
Key players out:
Manchester United: Lisandro Martinez
Burnley: Zeki Amdouni, Jordan Beyer
Prediction: 3-1 to Man Utd

Sunderland vs Brentford Preview:
The Black Cats lost last weekend but it will be their home form that keeps them up. Last time at home on the opening day of the season they gave West Ham a hiding winning 3-0 and so it will be interesting to see how they fare being back in front of their home fans. For Brentford it is 1 win and 1 loss so far but they were able to beat Aston Villa at home last weekend. The Bees have been around for a few seasons now in the top flight so this should be an interesting duel.
Key players out:
Sunderland: Luke O' Nien, Dennis Cirkin, Danny Ballard
Brentford: Yoane Wissa, Nunes Gustavo
Prediction: 0-0 draw
Recommended Betting Tips: Draw at half time at 2.10, Under 2.5 goals at 1.72, Correct Score half time 0-0 at 2.75
Tottenham vs Bournemouth Preview:
Only 3 clubs have a 100% record so far and one of them is Tottenham. The London club swept aside Burnley and then surprised many by doing the same away to Manchester City last weekend. Thomas Frank's side are looking good and could they be the surprise team this season? Bournemouth were unlucky in the end not to draw with Liverpool but they did beat Wolves at home last weekend and they are a solid unit with goals in them, this game has the ingredients for a cracker.
Key players out:
Tottenham: James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski, Yves Bissouma
Bournemouth: Julian Araujo, Lewis Cook

Recommended Betting Tips: Tottenham to beat Bournemouth at 1.70, First goalscorer: Evanilson at 8.00, Anytime goalscorer: Brennan Johnson at 2.50, Anytime goalscorer: Mohammed Kudus at 3.00, Over 3.5 goals at 2.30
Wolves vs Everton Preview:
Just how important was Wolves comeback win over West Ham in the EFL Cup in midweek? The club scored 2 late goals to beat the Hammers 3-2 and should come into this game with renewed confidence. In the league Wolves have lost their opening two games, conceded 5 goals and are yet to score. These two clubs incidentally will meet in the next round of the EFL Cup after Everton beat Mansfield 2-0. The Toffees won their first league game last weekend by overcoming Brighton 2-0.

Leeds vs Newcastle Preview:
Leeds will be happy to return home as they have lost their last two games on the road. First the newly promoted side were whitewashed 5-0 against Arsenal and then they were dumped out of the EFL Cup against Sheffield Wednesday on penalties in midweek. Leeds have beaten Everton at Elland Road on the opening weekend of the season. Newcastle are searching for their first win of the campaign but were unlucky not to get at least get a point at home to Liverpool. The Magpies were beaten in the final seconds 3-2. Observers will tell you that Eddie Howe's side are playing some good football and they will be expected to rise to the occasion at the weekend.
Key players out:
Leeds: Ethan Ampadu, Tanaka Ao
Newcastle: Anthony Gordon, Alexander Isak
Prediction: 3-0 to Newcastle
Recommended Betting Tips: Newcastle to beat Leeds at 2.10, Newcastle to score 3+ goals at 4.00, Anytime goalscorer: Dan Burn at 11.00, Anytime goalscorer: Harvey Barnes at 3.00
Brighton vs Man City Preview:
Brighton are fresh from losing 2-0 away to Everton and after drawing their first game it hasn't been the greatest of starts. The Seagulls have hardly spent any money in the summer window and this should be a concern. Manchester City began the campaign in brilliant style as they slaughtered Wolves 4-0 but then they lost 2-0 at home to Tottenham. Questions linger, have City recovered from last season and can they be considered amongst the title challengers this season?
Key players out:
Brighton: Solomon March, Adam Webster
Manchester City: Rodri, Josko Gvardiol, Savinho, Mateo Kovacic
Prediction: 3-1 to Man City
Recommended Betting Tips: Manchester City to beat Brighton at 1.80, First goalscorer: Erling Haaland at 4.00, Correct Score: Manchester City to win 3-1 at 13.00, Both teams to score at 1.50
Nottm Forest vs West Ham Preview:
Both managers come into this game under pressure. For Nuno Espirto Santo it has nothing to do with his overall job but he seems to have fallen out with Nottingham Forests owner. Graham Potters West Ham side have had a horror start to the campaign though, two losses from two and 8 goals conceded. The Hammers were also dumped out of the EFL Cup away to Wolves 3-2 in midweek. Forest are unbeaten and their only home league game so far was a 3-0 win over Brentford.
Key players out:
Nottingham Forest: Nicolas Dominguez
West Ham: Crysencio Summerville
Prediction: 2-1 to Nottm Forest
Recommended Betting Tips: Nottingham Forest to beat West Ham at 1.70, Nottingham Forest to score 2+ goals at 1.80, Both teams to score at 1.91, Anytime goalscorer: Chris Wood 2.25
Liverpool vs Arsenal Preview:
The two best sides in the Premier League from last season will clash at Anfield on Sunday. These two are expected to fill up 1st and 2nd in this season too. Both have 100% records so far so something has to give. Liverpool have goals in them with 7 from two games but their weak point could be in defence with 4 conceded so far. Arsenal are yet to concede with wins over Manchester United and Leeds where there crushed them 5-0 last weekend. Arsenal rarely do well away here but is the tide turning?
Key players out:
Liverpool: Jeremie Frimpong
Arsenal: Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Jesus, Kai Havertz
Prediction: 1-1 draw
Recommended Betting Tips: Full time result (Draw) at 3.40, Correct Score: 1-1 draw at 6.10, First goalscorer: Viktor Gyokeres at 6.00
Aston Villa vs Crystal Palace Preview:
As good as Aston Villa are they are searching for their first win of the season with one draw and one defeat. Last weekend Brentford beat them 1-0. Crystal Palace remain a solid outfit and have drawn their opening two games against two hard teams in Chelsea and Nottingham Forest. Fixtures haven't been particularly kind to the Eagles and on paper at least this looks like another hard one however perhaps this is a good time to play Villa who have started the season in sluggish mode.
Key players out:
Aston Villa: Andres Garcia
Crystal Palace: Odsonne Édouard, Cheick Doucoure
Prediction: 2-2 draw
Recommended Betting Tips: Draw at 3.25, Correct Score: 1-1 or 2-2 at 6.00 and 13.00, Anytime goalscorer: Ismailia Sarr at 5.00
