Manchester United has lost their last 2 of their last 3 matches. They took 3 points against Burnley last time out for their 3rd win of the season and in midweek they beat Palace convincingly 3-0 in the Carabao Cup and will be looking to repeat that scoreline on the weekend.

Wolves v Manchester City – Click here to bet
This match will be played at Molineux Stadium where 16th place Wolves will take on 1st place Manchester City.
Wolves have had a tough start to the campaign having only won one match. They recently drew to bottom of the league Luton Town and have only taken 1 point from the last 9 they have played.
Manchester City have had a stellar start to the season as they have won all their matches played. Their last start saw them beat Nottingham Forest 2-0 over the weekend.
This match will be tough for Wolves who lost home and away by 3-0 to City last season.
Prediction
4-0 Manchester City
Suggested Bet: Manchester City goals over 2.5 at 23/20 Â
West Ham United vs Sheffield United– Click here to bet
This match will be played at the London Stadium where 7th place West Ham United will play bottom of the league Sheffield United.
West Ham United are coming off the back of a loss to Liverpool where the side lost 3-1 at Anfield. That was their 2nd successive defeat having gone down to Manchester City at home also by a 3-1 margin.
Sheffield United have had a poor start to the season having lost 5 of their 6 matches. They were battered by Newcastle United over the weekend where the scoreline was a whopping 8-0. They have lost both their away matches this season.
West Ham should be too good here and can take the 3 points.
Prediction
2-0 West Ham United
Suggested Bet:Â Correct score West Ham 2-0 at 6/1

Newcastle v Burnley – Click here to bet
This match will be played at St James’s Park where 8th place Newcastle United will take on 19th place Burnley.
Newcastle United beat Sheffield United 8-0 on the road in their last start having beaten Brentford at home the week before. They have struggled with consistency and a 3rd successive win will restore some believe in their fan base.
Burnley the newly promoted side have struggled with form this campaign as they have lost 4 matches so far, drawing the 5th. they lost 1-0 to Manchester United at home over the weekend and their only point this season came in their solitary away match against Nottingham.
Newcastle will be too strong and can bag another win.
Prediction
3-0 Newcastle United
Suggested Bet:Â Newcastle over 2.5 goals at 11/10
Bournemouth v Arsenal – Click here to bet
This match will be played at Vitality stadium where 17th placed Bournemouth will face 5th place Arsenal.
Bournemouth have yet to win in 6 matches. They recently lost to Brighton on the road where the scoreline was 3-1.
Arsenal are undefeated this season having recently drawn to Spurs which in an action-packed match where the scoreline was 2-2 at full-time. If they are to challenge for the title 3 points in games like this are a must.
Arsenal won this fixture 3-0 last season and I think a comfortable win is on the cards
Prediction
4-0 Arsenal
Suggested Bet:Â Handicap, Arsenal -1.5 goals at 13/10
Tottenham v Liverpool – Click here to bet
This match will be played at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium where 4th place Spurs will take on 2nd place Liverpool.
Spurs have started the campaign successfully and are undefeated after 6 matches with 4 wins and 2 draws. They recently drew to Arsenal 2-2 on the road and they have won both of their home matches this season.
Liverpool are on a 5 match winning streak having drawn their opening match at Chelsea and they beat West Ham 3-1 at home in their last start.
Goals have flowed in Liverpool games and I am forecasting 4 goals or more in this one.
Prediction
3-1 Liverpool
Suggested Bet:Â Over 3.5 goals at 10/11
