Crystal Palace vs Manchester United

Crystal Palace will be hoping to return to winning ways here following the 1-0 Premier League defeat last time out to Chelsea. It was their second straight defeat and the fourth loss in the previous five rounds. Nevertheless, the Eagles still don't need to worry too much about dropping into the danger zone since they are seven points ahead of the red line. From their prior sextet of matches leading up to this one, in 5 of them, a wager on BTTS would have been a losing one. We will have to find out if that trend will end up being continued into this next match. Ahead of this clash, Crystal Palace is undefeated in its previous two home league matches. There aren't many selection issues, with just the sole fitness concern for the Crystal Palace boss Patrick Vieira to be concerned about due to a largely intact group of players. Nathan Ferguson (Achilles tendon problems) misses out.

Manchester United will go into this meeting following on from a 2-1 Premier League win vs Manchester City in their previous fixture. After scoring two goals in five minutes, the Red Devils pulled off a great turnaround. It was Man Utd's fifth win in a row in the English top flight and seventh straight in all competitions. Consequently, Manchester United is now nine points behind the top-placed Arsenal. In their last half-dozen clashes, Manchester United has bagged 15 goals. Manchester United has also managed to score on each one of those occasions. During that period, their defenders had two goals go against them. Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has to choose a team with limited availability. Axel Tuanzebe (Unknown Injury) and Donny van de Beek (Knee Injury) are not ready for selection.

Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

Manchester United has been in much better form recently, and they head to this game full of confidence after winning the Manchester Derby. Therefore, we think the Red Devils can extend their winning streak.

Goals Market Prediction

Crystal Palace has had trouble scoring over the past few weeks, while Man Utd has tightened its defense. Moreover, their last three games at Selhurst Park stayed under a 2.5 margin, and this one shouldn't be much different.

Manchester City vs Tottenham Hotspur

Manchester City is going through an unstable period since they have won only two of the previous four league matches. Moreover, the Citizens have tied two defeats in all competitions. Although the one in the EFL Cup wasn't that painful, the latest loss in the Manchester Derby could cause them many problems. Consequently, Man City is now eight points behind the top-placed Arsenal. Pep Guardiola's Manchester City have hit the target ten times in their preceding six outings. The comparative number of goals that have been scored against them in those games amounts to 6. Nevertheless, the hosts need to stabilize their form to stay in the title race.

After being defeated in their last game at the hands of Arsenal in Premier League action, Tottenham Hotspur will be aiming to make amends here. The Spurs cannot be happy with their form either since they picked up only four points in the last four Premier League games. Proving their involvement in eventful encounters, goals have been seen as many as 20 times in the previous six matches in which Tottenham Hotspur have taken to the pitch, giving a mean average of 3.33 goals each fixture. Opposing teams have hit nine from this total. Heading into this contest, Tottenham Hotspur is unbeaten in its last three away league matches. Tottenham Hotspur manager Antonio Conte has not got a full squad to pick from. Rodrigo Bentancur (Adductor problems) and Richarlison (Hamstring Injury) are names that won't be on the team sheet.

Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

Although neither has been consistent recently, the home side is still a big favorite. However, it will be another tight match, and we don't believe the Spurs will lose by more than a goal.

Goals Market Prediction

Both teams have significant attacking potential, and e expect them to show it on Thursday evening. Therefore, neither side should keep its net intact in this encounter.

Tottenham Hotspur AH +1.5 @ 1.90

BTTS Yes @ 1.85

Correct score 2:1 @ 8.50

Man City vs Hotspur

Both of them exhibit an interest in results with low scoring. Hotspur had three out of four and Man City had four of the last five games in under goal. It is believed that the total goal of the upcoming game will be less than three.

O/U Pick: Under 3

AH Pick: Tottenham Hotspur +1.5

Manchester City vs Tottenham

The Premier League fixtures give us a cheeky Thursday night game this week as title-challenging Manchester City take on Champions League qualification hopefuls Tottenham in an 8pm GMT kick-off from the Etihad Stadium. It’s a case of conflicted interests here as the away side will help their bitter rivals and league leaders Arsenal if they take a surprise victory but a loss could put more pressure on the position of Antonio Conte as Spurs head coach.

Manchester City have been struggling for a consistent run of victories in the league recently. It’s a patchy spell of form that has seen the club drop to being in 2nd place 8 points off the pace of table-topping Arsenal. The good news is that both teams are still one game short of the halfway stage of the season so there’s still time to claw that deficit back.

Pep Guardiola will want to see his team bounce back after the disappointing and controversial 2-1 loss away to local rivals Manchester United last weekend. The Citizens haven’t lost two league games in a row since 2018. Defensive issues continue to worry City with the team keeping just 3 clean sheets in their last 11 matches across all competitions. It’s also a concern for Guardiola that he’s suffered 3 losses from his 5 meetings with Conte.

Tottenham looked nothing short of abject in their underwhelming 2-0 loss at home to Arsenal in the North London derby last weekend. It’s left Spurs down in 5th position and 5 points off the pace of the top four. Owner Daniel Levy has been having his fair share of flak from the fans this season with the #LevyOut trending on social media on a weekly basis and rightly so. The team haven’t built on the promise of last season and the lack of activity in the transfer window so far has left supporters wondering if things will remain stagnant.

The Londoners might be coming into this game off a morale-damaging defeat but they do also have an opportunity to win back-to-back away league games for the first time this season. Here comes the negativity though. Tottenham have lost all four of their league games played against teams positioned above them in the table so far. It’s also become well-known that the team start games slowly having only scored one goal in the first half of their last 14 matches in all competitions. The team have also conceded 2 or more goals in 11 league games this season with only Bournemouth possessing a worse record.

Well, we’re getting close to twitchy bum time but there is a danger that both of these clubs could see their ambitions and end-of-season objectives taking a hit unless they can start putting wins together. There is still a feeling that City have it in them to get a run together. Unfortunately, the same confidence isn’t in this Tottenham side.

It was unfortunate how City lost the game last week and with a number of key players expected to return for this game I feel we will see a reaction. Tottenham haven’t shown anything for a while now to give us reason to think they will turn a corner. It almost feels like even Conte has resigned himself to the downturn. City to win this one.

Liverpool vs Chelsea

Liverpool will be hoping for a repeat of their last result following a 1-0 FA Cup victory versus Wolverhampton Wanderers. However, the Reds have tied two defeats in the English top flight and dropped to 9th place. At least three goals per match have been seen in 5 of the last six meetings in which Liverpool has participated. Opposing sides scored ten times in these games, whereas Liverpool bagged a total of 9. We will have to find out if that trend can be sustained in this game. Going into this encounter, Liverpool is unbeaten in their previous two home league matches. Nevertheless, the hosts need to stabilize their form to return to the top-four battle.

Chelsea will come into the match following a 1-0 Premier League win as they beat Crystal Palace in their previous outing. The Blues celebrated for the first time after three winless Premier League games, staying in 10th place. During their six most recent matches, Graham Potter's Chelsea has found the net five times - earning them the goals scored per game average of 0.83. However, Chelsea managed to remain undefeated away from home just twice on the previous seven occasions in all competitions. Chelsea manager Graham Potter has multiple availability issues to deal with. Christian Pulisic (Knee Problems), Raheem Sterling (Hamstring Injury), Edouard Mendy (Shoulder Injury), Ben Chilwell (Hamstring Injury), Reece James (Knee Injury), Wesley Fofana (Knee Injury), Denis Zakaria (Hamstring Injury), N'Golo Kanté (Hamstring Injury) and Armando Broja (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) miss out here. João Félix is ineligible for this match because of suspension.

Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

Both teams have been very inconsistent recently, and this game could go either way. However, Chelsea has been struggling a lot away from home lately, and we think Liverpool can take advantage of that to pick up valuable three points.

Goals Market Prediction

The crowd didn't see many goals in their recent head-to-head encounters, and this one should follow the same trend. Therefore, we don't expect to see more than two goals in total at Anfield on Saturday afternoon.

Crystal Palace vs Newcastle United

Crystal Palace is preparing for this game following a 1-1 Premier League stalemate against Manchester United. It was their third straight game in the English top flight without tasting a victory. Nevertheless, the Eagles are still safe in the middle of the table, being eight points ahead of West Ham. Crystal Palace hasn't made the most of their chances of late. Their 'goals for' figure equals just four against opposition teams during their last six outings. In those meetings, Crystal Palace has also seen the tally of goals scored against them total 11. Coming into this contest, Crystal Palace had not beaten Newcastle United in their previous three matches in the league. There is just one fitness concern for Crystal Palace coach Patrick Vieira to contend with from a near full-strength squad. Nathan Ferguson (Achilles tendon problems) will miss out.

Newcastle United will come into the game after a 1-0 Premier League win to beat Fulham in their most recent game. The Magpies returned to the winning ways after two straight draws. A succession of dependable showings from the Newcastle United defense has seen the number of goals they've conceded amounting to 2 from their previous six clashes combined. In that period of time, the number of goals that they have scored themselves is 7. They are currently five points ahead of the fifth-placed Tottenham, having one game in hand. Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe has to contend with a number of unavailable players. Matty Longstaff (Knee Injury) and Emil Krafth (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) will miss out on this game.

Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction

The visitors have been in excellent form, and they have been playing full of confidence. They lost just once on the road this season, and we think they could return home with an important victory.

Goals Market Prediction

Their h2h clashes haven't produced many goals recently, as 13 of their last 15 encounters stayed under a 2.5 margin. We don't believe it's going to be much different this time, and the crowd shouldn't see more than two goals in total.

Arsenal vs Manchester United

Arsenal will want to continue from where they left off last time with a 2-0 Premier League success versus Tottenham Hotspur. The Gunners still hold the top spot in the English top flight, being five points ahead of Man City and having a game in hand. Their most recent results reveal that not much more can be done by the Arsenal defense. Arsenal has been miserly, seeing the tally of goals that have flown into the back of their net over the course of their last six clashes standing at three. Going into this one, Arsenal hasn't been defeated in their previous five league matches at home. Regarding the availability issues, Reiss Nelson (Thigh Problems) and Gabriel Jesus (Knee Injury) are unavailable for Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta.

Previously, Manchester United drew 1-1 in the Premier League match with Crystal Palace. The stoppage-time equalizer broke the Red Devils' seven-game winning streak in all competitions. Over the course of their last six outings, Manchester United have helped themselves to a tally of 13 goals. Manchester United has additionally got on the scoresheet on each one of those occasions. In that time, they have had three goals go against them. Coming into this meeting, Manchester United haven't won against Arsenal in away games against them for the last four matches in the league. They'll be keen to stop this run. Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has multiple availability issues to deal with. Axel Tuanzebe (Unknown Injury) and Donny van de Beek (Knee Injury) are not ready for selection.

Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction                                                                            

It is going to be an exciting battle since both teams have been in excellent form lately. Therefore, we won’t be surprised if they split points in this encounter.

Goals Market Prediction

Neither team managed to keep the clean sheet in their last three h2h clashes, and we expect a similar outcome on Sunday evening. Both sides have been pretty productive lately, and they should be able to find the back of the opponent’s net.

Draw @ 3.95

BTTS Yes @ 1.65

Correct score 1:1 @ 7.50

Fulham vs Tottenham Hotspur

Fulham will be hoping for a better result following a 1-0 Premier League loss in their previous game against Newcastle United. It broke their four-game winning streak in the English top flight, although it could go differently. Aleksandar Mitrovic converted the penalty, but the goal was disallowed for a bizarre but valid reason. Their latest results show that much solidity has been demonstrated by the Fulham defense. Fulham has been miserly, seeing the total number of goals that have gone in at their end over the course of their last six matches standing at 3. It's a low absenteeism rate, with just a single fitness concern for the Fulham coach Marco Silva to contend with due to a largely intact set of players. Neeskens Kebano (Achilles tendon rupture) won't play.

Following on from a losing effort in their last game against Manchester City in Premier League action, Tottenham Hotspur and their traveling fans will hope for a better result here. Despite having a 2-0 halftime lead at Etihad Stadium, the Spurs managed to spill everything in the second 45 minutes. Indicating their appetite for fruitful matches, we've had goals 20 times in the prior six games in which Tottenham Hotspur have taken to the pitch, giving an average of 3.33 goals for each meeting. Their opponents have hit 9 of these goals. Heading into this contest, Tottenham Hotspur hasn't been beaten by Fulham in games played away from home for the previous seven league games. A solid away record against them, which they would like to continue.

Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction

It will be a tight match that can easily go either way. Fulham has been in better form, and we don't think they will lose this match in front of their fans.

Goals Market Prediction

Both teams have been involved in efficient matches this season, and this one shouldn't be much different. The BTTS Yes wager didn't cash just twice in their last eight h2h encounters, and we believe both teams will find the back of the opponent's net.

Fulham AH +0.5 @ 1.80

BTTS Yes @ 1.62

Correct score 1:1 @ 7.30
