Premier League Predictions & Tips

Ipswich Town v Crystal Palace - Tuesday, 7.30pm

Ipswich Town will welcome Crystal Palace to Portman Road on Tuesday evening in this Premier League clash towards the bottom. – Check out our Premier League odds.

After putting together a three-game unbeaten run, Ipswich Town suffered their sixth league loss of the season after Saturday’s trip to Nottingham Forest, a penalty for the home side was the difference in the end and many Forest fans complimented Ipswich on their performance, with a few suggesting they’ve been the best of the newly-promoted sides. However, that’s not showing in the league table as the Tractor Boys slipped into the bottom three, which isn’t surprising given they’ve won just one of their thirteen games so far, as they remain the only side in the Premier League yet to win a home game.

Crystal Palace have the same record (W1, D6, L6) as their opponents ahead of their trip to Suffolk, the Eagles have also secured just nine points so far but sit outside of the bottom three via goal difference. It’s still early in the season but this game really feels like a “six-pointer”, Palace needed a stoppage time goal on Saturday to take a point from Newcastle, that’s now three draws in their last four Premier League games, their last league victory on the road came back in May during that brilliant spell under Oliver Glasner, eight away games ago.

Both sides have racked up the most draws in the league so far (6), whilst both teams have scored in 4 of Ipswich Town’s six home games (67%), whilst the same has occurred in five of six Palace away game (83%), I’ll back a stalemate in this one. Here you can find all our football betting tips.

I don’t think they’ll be too much in this one with both sides not wanting to suffer another defeat, especially to a fellow Premier League struggler.

Leicester City v West Ham United - Tuesday, 8.15pm

Ruud van Nistelrooy will take charge of Leicester City for the first time as they welcome West Ham United to the King Power Stadium on Tuesday evening.

The former Manchester United player was in the stands on Saturday to see the Foxes at Brentford, he must have been pleased when Facundo Buonanotte tapped in from close distance to give them a 1-0 lead. However, they soon showed why they needed a new manager in place as they soon found themselves 3-1 behind before leaving West London with a 4-1 defeat. It’s a big job for van Nistelrooy and he’ll really need to get a fine tune out of his side if they have any chance of maintaining their top-flight status for next season.

Another loss here for Julen Lopetegui could see the Spaniards time in charge of West Ham come to a very premature end. The Hammers faced Arsenal at home on Saturday night and found themselves 4-0 down after just thirty-six minutes, it speaks volumes of your performance when the stands start to empty in the first half. The Irons showed some fighting spirit and found two quick goals of their own but lost the game 5-2, a defeat which leaves West Ham just six points above the drop after their first thirteen games.

These two sides should treat us to some goals on Tuesday evening, all but two of Leicester City’s thirteen league games have produced both teams to score, whilst the same outcome has occurred in eight of West Ham’s league games. The theme continues in the head-to-head stats as well, with both teams finding the net in eight of their last ten meetings.

I think this will be an entertaining game, given the “new manager bounce” that Leicester will have on Tuesday, they’ll make it difficult for West Ham but both sides have leaky defences, 2-2.

Everton v Wolverhampton Wanderers - Wednesday, 7.30pm

Two Premier League strugglers go head-to-head on Wednesday evening as Everton take on Wolves at Goodison Park. – Check out our Premier League odds.

Everton extended their winless run to five on Sunday with a 4-0 defeat at Old Trafford against Manchester United. The Toffees are usually a well organised outfit at the back but they gave up plenty of chances on Sunday, something Sean Dyche will not be happy with, his side now sit just two points above the drop in the Premier League, a defeat in this one could see them drop into the relegation zone and massive pressure would be on the Everton manager. The worry for the Blues ahead of this huge clash is the fact they’ve not managed to beat Wolves in any of their last six meetings.

After back-to-back victories for the first time this season, Wolves suffered another defeat on home soil against Bournemouth on the weekend, the Old Gold conceded three penalties before losing the game 4-2. The pressure is back on Gary O’Neil, the Wolves faithful booed his side off the pitch and also joined the away fans in taunting their manager, all this was added on top of goalkeeper Jose Sa’s altercation with a fan at half-time, it’s a miserable period right now for Wolves as they look to find that winning form again.

Everton are the joint-lowest goalscorers in the Premier League so far (10 goals) but they come up against the worst defensive record in the league (32 conceded), that will encourage the Toffees but they’ll be aware that they’ve lost the last three here against Wolves. Here you can find all our latest football betting tips.

Wolves have seen eleven of their first thirteen (87%) Premier League goals produce both teams to score, whilst Everton have drawn three of their six home games, I think were in for a score draw here.

Southampton v Chelsea - Wednesday, 7.30pm

Bottom of the table Southampton welcome Chelsea to the South Coast on Wednesday evening in this Premier League clash.

Southampton travelled to Bournemouth on Friday evening and could count themselves unlucky to leave without all three points, a controversial decision to rule out Cameron Archer’s goal in the 67th minute left Russell Martin feeling frustrated and rightly so. Notwithstanding that, it’s still a good point for the Saints but they still remain four points from safety after picking up just five points from a possible thirty-nine points.

Chelsea moved into third place in the Premier League after their convincing 3-0 victory against Aston Villa on Sunday afternoon, the Blues are now unbeaten in their last six games across all competitions. Enzo Maresca informed the media that his side are not in the title race and their focus is finishing within the top four, he’s got a point but given the way they started the campaign, they’ve done brilliantly to get to where they are after thirteen games, especially on the road where they have the second-best form in the league, having taken thirteen points from eighteen. 

Southampton will be aware that they’ve actually won the last two meetings against Chelsea and they’ve given some teams a real test this season, I think Chelsea will win this one but it could be a close encounter.

Chelsea must focus on getting a top four spot this season and they are well on their way to doing so.

Manchester City v Nottingham Forest - Wednesday, 7.30pm

Manchester City will be hoping to put a stop to this rot as they welcome Nottingham Forest in the Premier League on Wednesday evening.

The misery continued for Manchester City and Pep Guardiola on Sunday afternoon when they suffered another defeat at Liverpool, extending their winless run to an extraordinary seven games across all competitions. Chants of “You’re getting sacked in the morning” by the Liverpool fans was acknowledged by Pep, who replied with a smirk whilst holding six fingers up, the number of Premier League titles he’s won. The Citizens now trail Liverpool by eleven points and look to be out of the title race already, they remain fifth ahead of this one and just one point above their opponents.

Nottingham Forest bounced back from their two defeats in a row, a 1-0 victory over Ipswich Town on Saturday afternoon and moved the Tricky Trees above Tottenham and into sixth. It’s been a brilliant start under Nuno Espirito Santo, the Reds will be looking to cause another upset in this one like they did at Anfield, they remain the only side to beat Liverpool so far in this campaign. Forest games have produced the least number of goals in the Premier League this season, with an average of 2.2 goals per game.

Despite something clearly not right at Manchester City, I think we’ll still see a home victory in this one and they’ll stop this horrendous run, but there’s just no confidence at the back for City and Forest could find themselves on the scoresheet at the Etihad.

Erling Haaland has scored five goals in his four games against Nottingham Forest, the Norwegian striker will be looking to continue that on Wednesday night.

Newcastle United v Liverpool - Wednesday, 7.30pm

The Premier League leaders will make the trip up north on Wednesday evening to face Newcastle United at St James’ Park.

It’s been a real up and down start to the campaign for Newcastle United, the Magpies had previously put three wins in a row together before suffering a shock defeat last time they played on home soil against West Ham, Eddie Howe was left with more frustration after they left Selhurst Park with just one point on Saturday afternoon after conceding in the ninety-fourth minute to draw 1-1. They now welcome Liverpool and may have to wait to find that win to take them into the top half of the table, given they haven’t beaten Liverpool in their last fifteen meetings.

Liverpool knew if they beat Manchester City on Sunday, they would already have a real grip on the title after just thirteen games, Arne Slot’s side made no mistake at Anfield and won the game 2-0, they outplayed City and now sit pretty at the top with a nine-point gap to Arsenal and Chelsea. Of course, it’s still early days but Liverpool are just relentless and the title could be considered theirs to lose now. A trip to St James’ Park is always tough for any side but Liverpool won’t be fearing too much, they hold the best away record in the Premier League with five wins from their six road trips.

I think Liverpool will continue this fine form they are in, they’ve now won fifteen of their last sixteen games and have taken victory at this stadium in five of their last six visits, expect another away victory in this one.

Mo Salah has now scored at least one in each of his last five Premier League games, simply unstoppable at the moment.

Arsenal v Manchester United - Wednesday, 8.15pm

Possibly the game of the week from the Premier League here, as Manchester United travel to the Emirates Stadium to take on Arsenal on Wednesday night.

After a slight dip in form at the start of the month, Arsenal look to be back to their best. The Gunners have won their last three games across all competitions, scoring thirteen goals in the process. Mikel Arteta’s side travelled to West Ham on Saturday night and had the game won at half-time as they went into the break with a 5-2 lead. The return of Martin Odegaard has been a massive boost for Arsenal, they remain nine points off Liverpool at the top of the Premier League but will still feel like they’ve got a chance, although they cannot afford anymore slip-ups. An unbeaten record so far at the Emirates this season is another boost for the Gunners ahead of this one.

It’s been all change at Manchester United since the arrival of Ruben Amorim, I mentioned last week that you could see what the head coach wanted from his side against Ipswich Town but it’s just didn’t click given he had just two days with the squad prior to that one. However, we witnessed a much better performance from the Red Devils on Sunday afternoon, running out 4-0 winners against Everton with the decision to start Joshua Zirkzee looked like a brilliant call. Despite a really tough start, the Dutchman played in his more familiar “number nine” role and helped himself to two goals. Amorim knows they cannot get carried away with that result though, saying Everton were unlucky and deserved more, this is the first real test for this new era of Manchester United, it could be too soon but the signs for the future are bright.

As mentioned, I feel like this will be too early for Manchester United and Arsenal should get another important victory. The twenty-time English top-flight winners haven’t beaten the Gunners away from home since their FA Cup victory in 2019, with Arsenal winning five of the last six competitive meetings between these two in North London.

Either way, it’s an intriguing game and we should see both teams find the back of the net in this one.

Aston Villa v Brentford - Wednesday, 8.15pm

Villa Park under the lights for this one as Aston Villa take on Brentford in the Premier League.

Aston Villa have really hit a stumbling block in recent weeks, Unai Emery is struggling to find the answers as his side extended their winless run to eight games on Sunday with a 3-0 defeat away at Chelsea. The Villans now find themselves in the bottom half of the table but yet still only four points off the top three, it’s very congested after the first thirteen Premier League fixtures. Villa haven’t won a home league game since their victory over Wolves back in September, it’s been a long wait for the Villa faithful who will be hoping they’ll have something to cheer on Wednesday night.

Brentford extended their unbeaten run to three games on Saturday, the Bees had to come from behind against Leicester at the Brentford Community Stadium, with Thomas Frank’s side maintaining their unbeaten start at home, having won six of their first seven. By contrast, Brentford are just one of three sides yet to win on the road in the Premier League, they’ve picked up just one point and have the joint-worst away record so far, it’s definitely something that needs improving if the Bees want to achieve their goals this season.

Both of these sides sit in the top four in terms of goals per game and comparing that with the head-to-head stats, we could see a few goals at Villa Park. Seven of the last nine meetings have seen both teams hit the target, whilst Villa have won just one of their six games against the Bees on home soil, remaining five have ended in stalemates.

I think we’ll see Aston Villa stop the rot here, as alluded to above their record here isn’t great against Brentford but they should have enough up top to exploit the Bees’ leaky defence and horrendous away record.

Fulham v Brighton & Hove Albion - Thursday, 7.30pm

Brighton will travel to West London on Thursday evening as they take on Fulham in the Premier League at Craven Cottage. – Check out our Premier League odds.

Fulham return to Craven Cottage after taking a hard-earned point off fellow Londoners Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday, the Cottagers needed to bounce back after that 4-1 defeat to Wolves and they did just that, having to come from behind before finishing the game with ten players shows the fighting spirit from Marco Silva’s side, as they moved into the top half of the table, just three points off the top six.

Brighton & Hove Albion would love the season to end right now as they sit in fourth place. A more realistic target for Fabian Hürzeler’s team would be challenging for a place in the top six as opposed to top four, but they’ve started brilliantly having lost just twice in their first thirteen league games. I’m sure the Seagulls would have been left a little frustrated after drawing with bottom side Southampton on Friday night but avoiding defeat here would extend their unbeaten run to four Premier League games, something they haven’t done since their first four games of the season. 

Fulham games at Craven Cottage are usually entertaining, with 100% of their six games here producing both teams to score, whilst the same has occurred in four of Brighton’s six away games (67%). Here you can find all our latest football tips.

It's difficult to separate these two sides and therefore i think goals is the angle to go at it here in betting terms.

AFC Bournemouth v Tottenham Hotspur - Thursday, 8.15pm

Tottenham Hotspur are the latest visitors at the Vitality Stadium to face AFC Bournemouth in the Premier League.

Bournemouth made up for their back-to-back defeats in recent weeks with an emphatic 4-2 victory away at Wolves on Saturday. It was a game for the history books, Justin Kluivert converted three penalties as became the first player to do so in the Premier League era and also the first to do it since Ken Barnes for Man City back in 1957. The Cherries sit in thirteenth place prior to this game on Thursday night, just two points behind their opponents Tottenham Hotspur, it’s been a solid start for Andoni Iraola’s team.

The inconsistency questions about this Tottenham Hotspur side have resurfaced after being held at home to Fulham on Sunday. Ange Postecoglou wasn’t impressed with the questions he faced after the game from the media but it’s a fair shout in my opinion, they’ve beaten West Ham, Aston Villa & Manchester City with absolute ease but then drop points in the following game. Their stalemate with Fulham was met with boos from the Spurs faithful and it’s understandable, you just don’t know which Tottenham side are going to turn up each week. 

We could see Spurs bounce back here with a victory as they’ve won their last two visits at the ground, depending on results elsewhere, a win here could move Spurs into the top four given their superior goal difference advantage.

The Cherries haven’t been blown away at home this season, their two defeats on home soil have both been by just one goal, I’m edging towards a 2-1 away victory here.
