Aston Villa vs Nottm Forest Preview:
After winning 8 games in a row and generally being the best in form side in the league Aston Villa were thumped 4-1 at league leaders Arsenal. All of the efforts of the past 3 months came raining down on the club who have dropped 6 points behind Arsenal. How will they bounce back and was this result simply a one off? Nottingham Forest are under some pressure in 17th place. They hold a 4 point gap to West Ham in 18th but current form is poor with 3 losses in a row. Forest have also lost 3 of their last 4 home games.
Key players out:
Aston Villa: Tyrone Mings, Pau Torres
Nottingham Forest: Ibrahim Sangare, Chris Wood, Willy Boly, Ola Aina
Prediction: 2-1 to Aston Villa
Recommended Betting Tips: Aston Villa to beat Nottingham Forest at 1.72, Aston Villa to score 2+ goals at 1.80, First goalscorer: Ollie Watkins at 5.00, Both teams to score at 1.72
Brighton vs Burnley Preview:
Brighton forced a 2-2 draw away to West Ham recently which would have felt like a small victory given that they were trailing twice in that game. The Seagulls are not in good form with just 3 points won from their last five games. They have gone their last 3 home games without a win but this should present the perfect opportunity to change that. A win for Burnley would be huge for the club who are in 19th place and six points from safety. The Clarets were beaten 3-1 by Newcastle in their latest game and have won just once away from home.
Key players out:
Brighton: Solomon March, Adam Webster
Burnley: Lyle Foster, Jordan Beyer, Josh Cullen
Prediction: 2-0 to Brighton
Recommended Betting Tips: Brighton to beat Burnley at 1.50, Anytime goalscorer: Danny Welbeck at 2.10, Anytime goalscorer: Kaoru Mitoma at 2.75, Correct Score: Brighton to win 2-0 or 3-0 at 7.00 and 9.50
Wolves vs West Ham Preview:
Wolves will create a new record if they fail to beat West Ham at the weekend as they are still winless after 19 games. It's been an horrific campaign for Rob Edwards side but they are a team who have become harder to beat. Just ask Manchester United after Wolves claimed a brilliant point against them. West Ham are not winning games and so their recent 2-2 home draw against Brighton would have felt like a defeat. The Hammers are in 18th with 14 points but are still 4 points shy of safety.
Key players out:
Wolves: Rodrigo Gomes, Toti, Daniel Bentley
West Ham: Aaron Wan-Bissaka
Prediction: 1-0 to Wolves
Recommended Betting Tips: Wolves to beat West Ham at 2.50, Under 2.5 goals at 1.83, Wolves to score first goal at 1.91
Bournemouth vs Arsenal Preview:
This would have looked like a real banana skin for Arsenal last season but Bournemouth have nosedived lately and only earned 5 points from their last 30 on offer. The last few days have been excellent for Arsenal. First they beat title rival Aston Villa 4-1 and then another title rival Manchester City dropped two points as they could only draw with Sunderland. It means that the Gunners head into the first week of the new year with a nice 4 point gap at the top.
Key players out:
Bournemouth: Tyler Adams, Ben Doak
Arsenal: Max Dowman, Declan Rice
Prediction: 2-0 to Arsenal
Recommended Betting Tips: Arsenal to beat Bournemouth at 1.50, Correct Score: Arsenal to win 2-0 or 3-0 at 7.50 and 12.00, Anytime goalscorer: Gabriel Jesus at 2.25, Anytime goalscorer: Leandro Trossard at 2.50
