West Ham vs Chelsea Preview:
Both sides begun the campaign without a win and so this early London derby has just gone up in importance. West Ham were poor to lose 3-0 against newly promoted Sunderland even if they were away from home. The Hammers had the better time of it in the first hour but then folded. Chelsea dropped two points at home as they could only draw 0-0 with Crystal Palace. The Blues dominated the game and yet Palace had more shots on target.
Key players out:
West Ham: Crysencio Summerville, George Earthy
Chelsea: Mykhailo Mudryk, Romeo Lavia
Prediction: 2-1 to Chelsea
Recommended Betting Tips: Chelsea to win at 1.64, Both teams to score at 1.66, Anytime goalscorer: João Pedro at 2.50
Man City vs Tottenham Preview:
Manchester City begun their campaign in great fashion as they destroyed Wolves 4-0 away from home. There were some doubts about the side after last season but they have hit the ground running. Tottenham also enjoyed success with an easy 3-0 win over Burnley. Tottenham have had good success over City especially away from home in recent times but this may be a case of meeting a hungry and focused City side at the wrong time of the season. Let's also take note that this is City's first home game of the season and the atmosphere will be electric.
Key players out:
Manchester City: Josko Gvardiol, Mateo Kovacic, Savinho
Tottenham: James Maddison, Destiny Udogie, Dejan Kulusevski
Prediction: 3-1 to Man City
Recommended Betting Tips: Half Time Result: Manchester City at 2.00, Over 3.5 goals at 2.10, Anytime goalscorer: Rayan Cherki at 3.00, Anytime goalscorer: Erling Haaland at 1.66
Bournemouth vs Wolves Preview:
Bournemouth lost on the opening weekend but they should feel that they can hold their heads up high. Having to face the champions Liverpool away from home was never going to be easy. The Cherries came back from two goals down but in the end lost 4-2, they will feel better about this game. Wolves who have given Manchester City problems in the past were blown away 4-0 at home by them and this looks like another tricky away fixture.
Key players out:
Bournemouth: Lewis Cook, Justin Kluivert
Wolves: Leon Chiwome
Prediction: 2-0 to Bournemouth
Recommended Betting Tips: Bournemouth to beat Wolves at 1.80, Bournemouth to score 2+ goals at 1.72, Anytime goalscorer: Evanilson at 2.50
Brentford vs Aston Villa Preview:
Brentford will be looking to bounce back after they were soundly beaten away to Nottingham Forest in a game that finished 3-1. Aston Villa drew 0-0 in a tricky home game with Newcastle but they also had to play with 10 men after Ezri Konsa was sent off. Both clubs will be hoping for a European finish this season but there is a feeling that a lot will be expected from Villa this season as both sides look to claim their first win of the season.
Key players out:
Brentford: Yoane Wissa, Nunes Gustavo
Aston Villa: Ezri Konsa, Ross Barkley
Prediction: 1-0 to Aston Villa
Recommended Betting Tips: Aston Villa to beat Brentford at 2.10, Under 2.5 goals at 2.00, First goalscorer: Morgan Rogers at 8.00
Burnley vs Sunderland Preview:
Perhaps it's not all bad news for Burnley as they will be facing familiar opposition from last season in Sunderland when they faced each other in the Championship. Last weekend the Clarets opened their account with a 3-0 defeat away to Tottenham. Sunderland on the other hand impressed as they swatted West Ham aside 3-0. It was a great win for the newly promoted side and they should be in great spirits coming into this clash.
Key players out:
Burnley: Zeki Amdouni
Sunderland: Romaine Mundle, Luke O' Nien, Dennis Cirkin
Prediction: 1-0 to Sunderland
Recommended Betting Tips: Sunderland to beat Burnley at 3.25, Correct Score: Sunderland 1-0 or 2-0 at 8.00 and 11.00, Under 2.5 goals at 1.62
Arsenal vs Leeds Preview:
Arsenal recorded a brilliant 1-0 victory away to Manchester United last weekend. While the Gunners had to defend for much of the game it felt like a significant result so early into the season. Leeds begun their campaign with a win after they beat Everton 1-0 at home. It came courtesy of a controversial penalty but Leeds had been the better side. The newly promoted team will understand that they will be the big underdogs in this game though.
Key players out:
Arsenal: Gabriel Jesus, Kai Havertz
Leeds: Ethan Ampadu
Prediction: 3-0 to Arsenal
Recommended Betting Tips: Arsenal to score 3+ goals at 2.05, Anytime goalscorer: Viktor Gyokeres at 1.70, Anytime goalscorer: Gabriel Martinelli at 2.75, Sending off in the game at 5.00
Crystal Palace vs Nottm Forest Preview:
Crystal Palace recorded a great point on the opening weekend of the season as they drew 0-0 away to Chelsea. The Eagles also won their first leg Europa Conference League match 1-0. However this week has been overshadowed by the imminent departure of Eberechi Eze who looks destined for Arsenal. Nottingham Forest eased to a 3-1 win over Brentford last weekend and were always in control as they aim to have two solid back to back seasons. This should be an exciting encounter and we expect to see goals.
Key players out:
Crystal Palace: Eddie Nketiah, Matheus Franca
Nottingham Forest: Nicolas Dominguez
Prediction: 3-2 to Crystal Palace
Recommended Betting Tips: Crystal Palace to beat Nottingham Forest at 2.30, Over 3.5 goals at 3.00, First goalscorer: Jean Mateta at 5.00, Anytime goalscorer: Chris Wood at 3.25, Nottingham Forest to score 2+ goals at 2.75
Everton vs Brighton Preview:
History will be made at the weekend when Everton play their first official game in their new stadium, Hill Dickinson. Everton will be under pressure to perform especially after their first game of the season which ended in defeat against Leeds. Brighton drew 1-1 with Fulham at home and those two sides are expected to finish in the top half of the table. The Seagulls though have dropped two points already at home and will be looking to spoil the party at the new stadium.
Key players out:
Everton: Jarrad Braithwaite
Brighton: Solomon March, Adam Webster
Prediction: 2-1 to Everton
Recommended Betting Tips: Everton to beat Brighton at 3.00, Anytime goalscorer: Ilman Ndiaye at 4.00, Both teams to score at 1.72
Fulham vs Man Utd Preview:
Fulham begun the campaign with a decent 1-1 draw away to Brighton. The Cottagers have caused their opponents pain recently but many expect Manchester United to be improved this season. United though have already lost as they were beaten 1-0 by Arsenal last weekend. Observers believe United were unlucky not to at least have drawn and we should expect Ruben Amorim's side to dictate play and have more of the possession.
Key players out:
Fulham: Antonee Robinson
Manchester United: Lisandro Martinez
Prediction: 3-1 to Man Utd
Recommended Betting Tips: Manchester United to beat Fulham at 2.10, Manchester United to score 2+ goals at 2.00, Anytime goalscorer: Bruno Fernandes at 3.00, Anytime goalscorer: Bryan Mbeumo at 2.60
Newcastle vs Liverpool Preview:
There is already added spice to this match given that Newcastle star man Alexander Isak is pushing for a move to Liverpool. Newcastle began the season with a decent 0-0 draw away to Aston Villa. Liverpool had a scare at home to Bournemouth but they were able to power through and went onto win the game 4-2. Arne Slot's side will start as the favourites but it's never easy to face Newcastle away from home and we should witness a very entertaining and free flowing game with both sides able to be dangerous in attack.
Key players out:
Newcastle: Alexander Isak
Liverpool: Jeremie Frimpong
Prediction: 1-0 to Liverpool
Recommended Betting Tips: Liverpool to beat Newcastle at 2.05, Correct Score: Liverpool to win 1-0 at 10.00, First goalscorer: Mohamed Salah at 4.50
