On Wednesday, 24 April in a rescheduled match for the 29th round of the Premier League, Everton welcomes Liverpool on their home ground. While the Reds outclassed Fulham in London on Sunday with a score of 1:3, Sean Dyche's team took down Nottingham Forest (2:0) thereby increasing their chances of retaining their Premier League status. Predicted Line-ups Everton:Pickford; Young, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Harrison, Onana, Gueye, McNeil; Doucoure; Calvert-Lewin.Liverpool:Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Szoboszlai, Endo, Mac Allister; Salah, Nunez, Diaz. Everton This season, the English Football Association imposed an eight-point penalty on Everton, so the Toffees will have to make a tremendous effort to avoid the drop. Despite this, the Blues sit 16th in the Premier League table, with a game in hand and five points clear of 18th-placed Luton. Winning 2 from their last 4 matches, with a single draw and defeat, Sean Dyche's squad has gained good momentum in April. After a 6:0 thrashing by Chelsea, the hosts managed a 2:0 victory against their direct relegation competitor, Nottingham Forest, last weekend -- all thanks to two strikingly similar goals by Idrissa Gueye and Dwight McNeil. It's crucial to note that the Toffees have only lost one of their last six matches at Goodison Park, and in each of their last 11 Premier League home victories, they managed to keep a clean sheet! Nevertheless, the hosts are ranked only 17th in overall home points tally (19 points from 16 home games, 18 goals scored, 18 conceded). Liverpool Fighting for a championship title in his last season at the helm of Liverpool, Jurgen Klopp's charges sit 2nd in the league table, with as many points as the leader - Arsenal. However, Manchester City is only one point behind, with a game in hand. Following eight unbeaten matches (6 wins and 2 draws), the Reds faced a sensational 0:1 fiasco against Crystal Palace. Last weekend, the Merseyside outfit redeemed themselves by handling a strong Fulham (1:3) in London. Timothy Castagne replied to a spectacular free-kick by Trent Alexander-Arnold, but in the second half, Ryan Gravenberch and Diogo Jota scored goals. The commendable goal scoring streak of the Reds on away Premier League matches is now up to 20, since their goalless clash with Chelsea in April last year.Last Thursday, the club was knocked out of the Europa League playoffs, losing to Atalanta (3:1) at the quarter-final stage. Liverpool's squad still misses experienced Matip and Thiago Alcantara, along with right-back Bradley; there are no additional player losses in the visitor's camp. Head-to-Head In October, Everton was beaten by Liverpool (2:0) at Anfield, however, in five of their last six face-offs at Goodison Park, the teams finished on level terms. Prediction for Everton vs Liverpool Match Klopp's team handled a sturdy Fulham with ease, despite a string of disappointing outcomes early in the week. The Reds are still in the running for the championship title, but slip-ups are no longer an option - any points dropped would surely prove fatal. In recent years, Everton has regularly upset Liverpool at Goodison Park, but this time it will differ. I'm backing the favourite to triumph by a margin of 1-2 goals. Total Goals Prediction Everton failed to notch any goals against the Reds in their last four derbies, while they've only conceded an average of a goal per match at home. My prediction is an overall total of under 3.5 goals. Corner Prediction Liverpool outclasses the opponent and will hold the initiative throughout the match. I'm putting money on the individual total for the visitors on corners to be over 5.5. Yellow Card Prediction Playing as the home team, they will spend significant time in defence and will be forced to regularly break the tempo of the opponent's attacks with fouls. I'm backing the Toffees to win the yellow card count. Score Prediction I'm wagering for a precise score of 0:1 in favour of Liverpool.

Odds: 3.5Stake: 5/10

On Wednesday, 24th of April, in the postponed match of the 29th round of the Premier League, "Wolverhampton" will host "Bournemouth". After a loss to "Arsenal" over the weekend, the orange team will seek rehabilitation in front of the home crowd, while the "cherries" no longer have any tournament motivation for the remaining part of the season. Predicted lineups Wolverhampton:Sa; S. Bueno, Kilman, Toti; Doherty, Lemina, Gomes, Doyle, Ait-Nouri; Sarabia, Hwang.Bournemouth:Neto; Aarons, Zabarnyi, Senesi, Kelly; Christie, Cook; Semenyo, Kluivert, Kerkez; Solanke. Stadium The showdown will take place at Molineux Stadium in Wolverhampton. Wolverhampton Wolverhampton sits in 11th place in the Premier League table, and the team's only remaining goal for the rest of the season is to finish in the top ten. The hosts haven't been able to secure a single win in the last five rounds (2 draws and 3 defeats), accruing points only in games against Burnley (1:1) and Nottingham Forest (2:2). Over the weekend, Wolverhampton logically fell to the title contender - London's Arsenal (0:2) - in front of their own fans. Moreover, the oranges lost each of their last three home games - the last time Wolves suffered four consecutive defeats at Molineux was in 2017. It's worth noting that Gary O'Neill's team ranks only 12th in the overall ranking by points garnered at home: 24 points in 16 games. What cannot but worry the fans is the following fact: Wolverhampton has conceded at least two goals in five of their last six games in all competitions. Bournemouth Sitting 13th in the Premier League table and trailing upcoming opponents by just one point, Bournemouth is also finishing the season without any particular tournament goals. Recently, the "cherries" gathered momentum, going five rounds unbeaten (4 wins and 1 draw). However, Andoni Iraola's wards couldn't secure a win in their last three matches. A couple of weeks ago, the team held Manchester United to a draw (2:2), alongside setbacks against Luton (2:1) and a contender for a top-4 spot Aston Villa (3:1). This continues a disturbing trend for the southerners: they have now lost five meetings in the course of the current campaign after being the first to score. Notably, Bournemouth ranks 11th in the league table by points earned away from home (18 in 16 away games, 25 goals scored, 34 conceded). Head-to-head encounters In the first round of the current campaign, Wolverhampton achieved a 1:2 away win. In their last seven head-to-head matches, the Cherries have come out on top only once. Match prediction: Wolverhampton Bournemouth The Wolves lost only one of their last seven Premier League meetings with Bournemouth, and there's every reason for this trend to continue on Wednesday night. Bournemouth seems to have lost motivation lately due to the lack of tournament duties and is finishing the season at its leisure. Nevertheless, the Wolves themselves aren't particularly shining in April - a draw is a sensible bet. Over/under prediction In only one of the previous four head-to-head matches was there an exchange of goals. Given that both teams possess quality performers and average 1.5 goals per game this season, I would wager on "Both Teams to Score". Corner prediction The Wolves win an average of 4 corners per game, whilst the red and blacks earn 6! I confidently predict a victory for the visitors in corners. Yellow cards prediction Neither team has any real tournament motivation in the remaining rounds, meaning no one will be risking extra clashes. I predict under 4.5 total bookings. Score prediction I'm going for a precise score of 1:1.

On Wednesday, the 24th of April, as part of the 29th round of the Premier League, "Crystal Palace" will host "Newcastle United" on their home ground. Eddie Howe's proteges didn't play last weekend due to the country's cup semi-finals, whereas "the Eagles" thrashed "West Ham" with a score of 5:2, setting a new club record concurrently. Predicted Lineups "Crystal Palace":Henderson; Clyne, Richards, Andersen; Munoz, Ahamada, Hughes, Mitchell; Olise, Mateta, Eze."Newcastle":Dubravka; Murphy, Krafth, Schar, Burn; Anderson, Guimaraes, Longstaff; Gordon, Isak, Barnes. Stadium The competition will take place in London at the Selhurst Park stadium. "Crystal Palace" Occupying the 14th place in the Premier League table with one game in hand and being 11 points away from the relegation zone, "Crystal Palace" needs to score just 2 points to secure their perch in the elite. After going 5 rounds without a victory (2 draws and 3 losses), Oliver Glasner's proteges delivered two stunning matches in the last weeks: first the red and blues sensationally defeated "Liverpool" at Anfield (0:1), and then thrashed "West Ham" (5:2) last weekend. In the first half, Eberechi Eze, Michael Olise, and Emerson Palmieri scored, followed by a brace from Jean-Philippe Mateta. The last time "Palace" claimed consecutive Premier League victories was in April 2023, when they beat "Leicester", "Leeds United", and "Southampton", so the capital-based team will be highly motivated for success on Wednesday. "Newcastle" "Newcastle" will definitely not see the Champions League live next year. Nonetheless, "the Magpies" occupy the 6th spot in the Premier League table and can still hope for a berth in European competitions. The Black and Whites lead Manchester United only by goal difference, but the gap is astonishing: 17 versus minus one for the "Red Devils". Despite inconsistent team results throughout the season, the guests have suffered only one defeat in the last 6 rounds, with 4 victories and 1 draw. Last weekend, Eddie Howe's team didn't perform in the championship due to the rescheduling of the match because of the FA Cup semi-finals, whereas two weeks ago they claimed a convincing home victory against "Tottenham" with a score of 4:0: Alexander Isak scored a brace, and Anthony Gordon and Fabian Schr also found the net. Head-to-Head Meetings In the first half of the current campaign, "Newcastle" blew "Palace" away with a score of 4:0 at St. James' Park, thereby going six matches without a defeat against "the Eagles". "Crystal Palace" vs "Newcastle" Match Prediction Having rested after a ten-day break, "Newcastle" will appear in London as a completely different team compared to the worn-out "West Ham" from the Eurocup battles. Key Magpies players are gradually returning from injury, and the team simply cannot afford to falter - the fight for places in Europe is expected to be fierce in England. "Palace", in fact, has no real tournament tasks and is playing out the season at their own leisure. My prediction is a victory for Eddie Howe's proteges with a handicap of 0. Total Goals Prediction "Newcastle" has not conceded a single goal from "the Eagles" in the last five head-to-head matches, and certainly will want to continue this streak. My prediction is - the Eagles' individual total under 1 goal. Prediction for Corners The guests outclass their adversary and are more motivated from a tournament point of view, so they will likely monopolise the ball from the opening minutes. I bet on a triumph for the black and whites on corners. Yellow Cards Prediction Both teams are not known for excessive roughness on the field (on average, less than 2 yellow cards per game) hence, I bet on total warnings under 3.5. Score Prediction I predict the exact score to be 0:2 in favour of "Newcastle".

On Sunday, 21 April, as part of the 34th round of the Premier League, Liverpool will host Fulham. The Reds' Europa League run ended with a midweek elimination by Atalanta, while Marco Silva's charges had a full week of preparation following a 2-0 victory over West Ham. Expected Line-ups Fulham:Leno; Castagne, Adarabioyo, Bassey, Robinson; Palhinha, Lukic; Iwobi, Pereira, Willian; Muniz.Liverpool:Alisson; Gomez, Quansah, Van Dijk, Robertson; Elliott, Endo, Szoboszlai; Salah, Nunez, Jota. Fulham Rooted in the lower half of the table, Fulham are currently 12th in the Premier League and have no particular fears about the survival battle in the remaining rounds. The lack of motivation and goals has been palpable recently with Fulham going winless in three matches in April. After a 3:3 draw with bottom-placed Sheffield United, Fulham then lost to Nottingham Forest (3:1) and Newcastle (0:1). However, last weekend saw the Londoners bounce back with a 0:2 dispatch of West Ham. A brace from Andreas Pereira who first capitalised on a Dinos Mavropanos error then netted a second-half goal after Alex Iwobi's assist. Of the 42 points collected this season, 28 were garnered at home, bettered only by the top six. It has been 12 months since Fulham lost back-to-back Premier League games at Craven Cottage. Liverpool In Jurgen Klopp's final season as manager, Liverpool are keen to clinch the Premier League title and currently sit third in the table, three points adrift of pace-setters Arsenal. Last weekend saw the Merseysiders suffer an annoying fiasco against Crystal Palace losing 1:0, a surprise result that ended an eight-game unbeaten run (six wins and two draws), with Eberechi Eze scoring the only goal. Liverpool were ousted out of the quarterfinals of the Europa League, despite a 0:1 away win against Atalanta (0:3 in the first leg). Mohamed Salah's early penalty offered hope of another stunning European comeback, but the Bergamese comfortably neutralised their star-studded strike force. The Reds have now gone seven halves of football without scoring in April, which could cause some concern among the fanbase. Head to Heads Klopp's charges emerged victorious in December's Premier League match at Anfield (4:3) and a two-legged League Cup semi-final face-off (3:2) Match Prediction for Fulham v Liverpool Liverpool have gone over five hours of play since they last scored on the road. Jurgen Klopp's team have hit a slump at a crucial time of the season, as illustrated by recent slip-ups. Fulham are doing well at home and are free from any significant injury concerns - placing my bet on Fulham +1.5. Goals Prediction Only the top three PL teams can boast better home defensive records than Fulham this season, with the Cottagers averaging just a goal conceded per game. Betting on Liverpool's individual total under 2.5 goals. Corners Prediction Liverpool need to win to reduce the gap on leaders Man City. The visitors will likely control possession and dominate in corners with a -1.5 edge. Yellow Cards Prediction Only seven bookings in the four most recent head-to-head encounters between these two sides. Putting money on the total number of bookings to be under 3.5. Scoreline Prediction My bet is on a 1:1 draw.

On Saturday, 20 April, as part of the 34th round of the Premier League, Sheffield United will host Burnley at home. A mere four points separation keeps these two underdogs apart in the league table; hence, the outcome of this duel will have a key bearing on the survival stakes. Projected line-ups Sheffield United:Grbic; Holgate, Trusty, Ahmedhodzic; Osborn, Souza, Hamer, Arblaster, Larouci; McBurnie, Brereton Diaz.Burnley:Muric; Assignon, O'Shea, Esteve, Taylor; Foster, Berge, Brownhill, Cullen, Odobert; Datro Fofana. Sheffield United Sheffield United is currently languishing at the bottom of the Premier League table with a mere 16 points from 32 matches. The team seems virtually downgraded (trailing the 17th-placed Nottingham Forest by 10 points), with no wins in the last 8 rounds (3 draws, 5 losses). After managing a 2:2 draw against Chelsea before their home crowd, the team missed a golden opportunity to close the gap to the safety zone last weekend, succumbing to a 2:0 loss to Brentford. With their total of 84 goals conceded at this stage of the season, they've set a Premier League record since its inception in 1992. Unsurprisingly, the Blades hold the distinction of being the worst performing team at home in this championship, having mustered a meagre 10 points from 16 home games. Burnley Burnley, who also returned to the top flight last summer, currently occupy the 19th spot in the Premier League table and trail the 17th placed Nottingham Forest by 6 points. Hence, the club's chances of extending their stay in the Premier League are rather bleak. However, under the stewardship of Vincent Kompany, they've displayed improved form in recent weeks: having lost just one of their last six matches, with one win and four draws. Following a disheartening 1:0 loss to Everton, Burnley managed a 1:1 draw with Brighton last weekend. Ironically, the Lancastrians lost points under farcical circumstances: just five minutes after Josh Brownhill's goal, goalkeeper Arijanet Muric was unable to handle a pass from Sander Berge, and the ball rolled into the net. It is important to note that Burnley own the fourth from bottom spot in the overall league table due to their away performances: amassing only 10 points from 16 away games, scoring 16 goals, and conceding 31. Head-to-Head Meetings Kompany's team decimated their opponents in their December match at Turf Moor with a 5:0 victory, hammering the last nail into the coffin for then Sheffield United manager Paul Heckingbottom. Prediction for Sheffield United vs Burnley Four of Burnley's last six Premier League matches have ended in draws, while Sheffield United has forced a deadlock in three of their last five encounters. Both teams are likely to practice caution from the onset as the outcome could influence their survival chances. Without a clear favourite, I'm betting on a draw. Total Goals Prediction Four of the previous, head-to-head clashes between these sides have been devoid of goals from either side. We're unlikely to witness a goal fest this time around, hence my bet is on Under 2.5 goals in total. Corner Prediction Sheffield United averages just 3.2 corners per game, while the visitors average around 4.9. It makes sense to fancy Burnley winning this particular statistic. Yellow Cards Prediction The stage is set for a real battle at Bramall Lane. In the first round match, the referee brandished 9 yellow and one red card, leading me to confidently predict Over 4.5 booking points. Exact Score Prediction My exact score prediction is a 0:0 draw.

On Saturday the 20th of April, during the 34th round of the Premier League (PL), Luton Town will play host to Brentford. Last weekend, Rob Edwards' charges were torn to shreds by Manchester City (5:1), while the 'Bees' overcame Sheffield United with little trouble, winning 2:0. Predicted Lineups Luton Town:Kaminski; Kabore, Hashioka, Burke, Doughty; Clark, Mpanzu, Barkley; Townsend, Morris, Chong.Brentford:Flekken; Zanka, Collins, Pinnock; Roerslev, Jensen, Janelt, Damsgaard, Reguilon; Mbeumo, Toney. Stadium The match will take place in Luton at the Kenilworth Road Stadium. Luton Town Occupying 18th place in the Premier League standings and lagging behind Nottingham Forest by just one point, Luton Town continues the fight to avoid relegation. The 'Hatters' are going to have to exert quite a bit of effort to achieve this, especially considering their current form leaves a lot to be desired. After 10 rounds without a win (3 draws and 7 defeats), Rob Edwards' wards managed to beat Bournemouth at home with a score of 2:1. However, last weekend, the blue and whites were comprehensively beaten by Manchester City. It is significant to note that Luton has not left the field goalless in their last 13 matches across competitions; in fact, the blue-whites have managed to find the net in their last 12 home appearances. In the remaining rounds, the hosts do not have any top opponents (arguably West Ham), which means there is a real chance to cling to the right to maintain their Premier League status. Brentford Currently, Brentford is in 15th place in the Premier League table, trailing their opponents by 7 points. With 5 rounds left to play, the London side can anticipate a relatively comfortable end to the championship, although Thomas Frank's charges have lost some steam in recent weeks. Last weekend, making the most of their home support, the white and reds overcame sinking rivals Sheffield United by 2:0, a result that allowed the hosts to break a nine-round winless streak (4 draws and 5 defeats). The 'Bees' have mustered just one point in their last 15 away matches, conceding 11 in their last four road games, and have not managed to string together two consecutive Premier League victories since November. Head-to-Head The 'Bees' have won six out of their last seven meetings against the 'Hatters', including a 3:1 victory in December's first-leg match. Match Prediction for Luton Town vs Brentford The 'Hatters' have demonstrated their ability to trouble any team on their home turf on multiple occasions throughout the current campaign. However, Luton's personnel losses are bound to affect the hosts in terms of fatigue and selection. The rejuvenated Tony will undoubtedly bring additional strength and emotion to the visitors. In the first leg, the 'Bees' experienced little difficulty against the underdogs, so I'm backing a Brentford victory with a handicap of 0. Total Prediction Luton is conceding an average of more than two goals per game this campaign, while Brentford boasts a more than competent attacking line - my bet is on the visitor's individual total over 1.5 goals. Corner Prediction Luton averages more than 5.5 corner kicks per game and, supported by their home crowd, will certainly not retreat. I predict a win for Luton in terms of corners. Yellow Cards Prediction Luton accumulates an average of only 1.8 yellow cards per game, while Brentford averages 2.4. I'm betting that the visitors will not be inferior in terms of warnings. Score Prediction My prediction is for an exact final score of 1:2 in Brentford's favour.

On Monday, 15th April, as part of the 33rd round of the Premier League, Chelsea will host Everton on their home turf. The hosts currently sit in ninth place in the league, trailing by just five points from sixth-place Manchester United, while the Toffees are fighting for survival, leading the relegation zone by just two points. Predicted Lineups Chelsea:Petrovic; Gusto, T Silva, Chalobah, Cucurella; Caicedo, Gallagher; Madueke, Palmer, Mudryk; Jackson.Everton:Pickford; Coleman, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Harrison, Garner, Onana, McNeil; Doucoure; Calvert-Lewin. Chelsea Despite a quality squad, Chelsea continues to disappoint their fans, and at present, the capital team only occupies 9th place in the Premier League table, far from the club's proclaimed expectations. Qualification for the Champions League has long been unattainable, however, a ticket to the lower-ranked European cups is still a reality (one game less played and 6 points behind the sixth position). In recent weeks the Blues have been more consistent in their results, remaining unbeaten in seven of their last matches (3 wins and 4 draws). After a victory over Manchester United (4:3), Mauricio Pochettino's charges shared the points last weekend with the sinking Sheffield United (2:2): in response to goals from Thiago Silva and Madueke, the Blades responded with precise strikes from Bogle and McBurnie. The hosts' calendar is not favourable: in the coming weeks Chelsea face tough matches against Arsenal, Aston Villa, and Tottenham. Everton Everton has been under threat of dropping out for a while now due to the Football Association's deduction of 8 points for financial malpractice. The Toffees currently hold the 16th place in the Premier League table, leading Luton Town by just two points with one game in hand. Last weekend the Blues recorded an important 1:0 victory over another basement dweller, Burnley, courtesy of Calvert-Lewin's lone goal. This result put an end to a worrying 13-match winless streak (6 draws and 7 defeats). Sean Dyche's men have won five away games during the current campaign, albeit not since mid-December; in overall terms they rank tenth in away points (19 pts in 16 matches). Importantly, Everton has only scored 32 goals in the Premier League; only Sheffield United (30 goals) has a worse scoring record. Head-To-Head In the first leg, Chelsea lost to Everton with a score of 2:0, and the previous two head-to-head encounters in London ended in a draw. Match Prediction Chelsea Everton Everton could give Chelsea a run for their money on Monday as the Toffees are fighting for survival and are in dire need of points - they are only two points clear of the relegation zone. However, Chelsea has been in good form in recent weeks, remaining unbeaten in the league since early February. Given that the Liverpudlians have not been able to triumph in their last nine away matches, a sensation here seems unlikely - I'm banking on a routine victory for the favourites with the support of the home crowd. Total Prediction Chelsea has amassed 16 goals in their last five home games across all competitions, and overall this season, they have demonstrated very good productivity (averaging two goals per game). I predict that the Londoner's individual total will be over 1.5 goals. Corner Predictions Chelsea outclasses its rival and will be far more aggressive, while the visitors will rely exclusively on counterattacks. I am betting on a win for the hosts in terms of corners. Yellow Card Predictions Everton averages 2.2 yellow cards per game, while Londoners average 3. I am placing a bet on the total number of cautions being over 3.5. Score Prediction I am betting on a precise score of 2:1 in favour of Chelsea.

On Sunday, 14th April, Arsenal face Aston Villa in the 33rd round of the Premier League. The Gunners drew with Bayern Munich in the first match of the Champions League quarter-final on Tuesday. In contrast, the Birmingham side beat Lille two days later in the Conference League. Arsenal Chasing the title since their 'invincible' 2004 campaign, Arsenal are currently at the top of the table, with as many points as Liverpool. Mikel Arteta's charges seemed to drop out of the race after a series of disappointing performances in December. However, since January, the Gunners haven't suffered a single defeat in the domestic championship (10 wins and 1 draw). Following the international break in March, the red and whites managed to draw against Manchester City - 0-0 - followed by victories over Luton Town (2-0) and Brighton last weekend (0-3). This week, Arsenal drew with Bayern Munich in front of their home fans in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-final (2-2): Bukayo Saka put the capital side ahead early on, but the Germans replied with goals from Serge Gnabry and Harry Kane - only substitute Trossard leveling the score. It's worth noting that Arsenal are third in points garnered on their patch: 38 in 15 home clashes with 38 goals and 13 conceded. The Londoners' squad will be lacking Dutch defender Jurrien Timber, who is out for the season with a severe injury. Otherwise, Mikel Arteta can count on an optimal lineup this Sunday; Declan Rice (6 goals and 5 assists) and Odegaard (7 goals and 6 assists) will undoubtedly appear in midfield, while the attacking line will be formed by winger Saka (14 goals and 8 assists), German Havertz (9 goals and 5 assists) and Brazilian Martinelli. Oleksandr Zinchenko replaced struggling Kiviora at half-time against Bayern, but this time it might be Takehiro Tomiyasu to be deployed on the left flank. Aston Villa Aston Villa are still battling for a Champions League spot and are currently 5th in the Premier League, having earned as many points (60) as Tottenham. Unfortunately, in recent weeks, Unai Emery's charges have not looked their best: in the last five rounds, they garnered one win, two draws, and suffered two losses. After losing 4:1 to Manchester City, the team last weekend settled for a home draw (3:3) against Brentford. Like Arsenal, the yellow-blues performed in the European competitions this week, where they barely beat Lille in the first leg of the Conference League quarter-final (2:1). Ollie Watkins clinched an early lead for the English, just before McGinn doubled the Birmingham side's advantage. However, Bafode Diakite pulled one back to keep the intrigue alive for the return match in France. Villa are fourth in aggregate points on the road: 25 in 16 away games, with 26 goals scored and 27 conceded. Like in recent weeks, Villa's roster on Sunday is marked by several notable absentees. Team captain Mings, key defender Cash, holding midfielder Kamara, and wingers Ramsey and Buendia continue to be in the treatment room. Ollie Watkins (18 goals and 10 assists) scored a brace last weekend and will undoubtedly spearhead the attack at the Emirates, backed by promising winger Rodgers (1 goal and 1 assist). The visitors' midfield will consist of McGinn (6 goals and 4 assists) and Douglas Luiz (9 goals and 5 assists), while wingers Bailey (8 goals and 8 assists) and Diabi (5 goals and 7 assists) will add creativity on the flanks. Head-to-Head The first-round fixture at Villa Park concluded in a minimal 1:0 victory for the Birmingham side, yet prior to that, the Gunners had triumphed four times in a row. Arsenal - Aston Villa match prediction Having two extra days for recovery after their European battles, Arsenal will be in far better physical condition than the guests. The Gunners - motivated by their pursuit of the championship title - simply can't afford to slip up. Otherwise, they will be trailing City by two points. Considering Villa's personnel issues and Emery's charges' recent results, it's reasonable to back a Gunners' win with a -1.5 handicap.

On Sunday, 14 April, within the framework of the 33rd round of the Premier League, Liverpool will host Crystal Palace on their home field. Following the snag at Old Trafford, the hosts dropped the championship palm to Arsenal due to the difference in scored and missed goals, while the guests are 14th in the overall standings and have not known victories for five matches in a row. Liverpool Liverpool are in 2nd place in the Premier League, catching up with Arsenal in the title race. The Merseysiders have not been defeated in the national championship since they were beaten 3:1 at the Emirates in early February, completing eight rounds without a defeat (6 wins and 2 draws). After victories over Brighton (2:1) and Sheffield United (3:1), Jurgen Klopp's charges drew with Manchester United last weekend, despite dominating in the first half in every parameter (2:2). Luis Dias put the favourites ahead, but Bruno Fernandes and Kobi Mainu turned the course of the match around before Mohamed Salah restored parity on the scoreboard with a penalty six minutes from the end. However, the hosts suffered a real fiasco this week, losing heavily at Anfield in the quarterfinals of the Europa League against Atalanta from Bergamo for the first time this campaign (0:3). It's important to note that Liverpool is the absolute best Premier League team at home: 42 points in 16 home games, 43 goals scored, 14 conceded. Main goalkeeper Alisson and right-back Alexander-Arnold returned to the squad after injury issues, which is not the case with Matip, Thiago Alcantara and Bayer. In addition, Portuguese winger Diogo Jota has recovered from injury. Mo Salah (17 goals and 9 assists) and Luis Dias (8 goals and 4 assists) both scored against Manchester United and are probably going to form a trio in the attack with Darwin Nunes (11 goals and 8 assists). Frenchman Konate may return to the starting lineup with van Dijk, replacing young Kwans, who made a gross mistake at Old Trafford. Crystal Palace Crystal Palace are 14th in the Premier League, with one game in hand and a five-point gap from the relegation zone. The London club needs to maintain vigilance in the final stages to avoid a survival battle, especially given that the current dynamics aren't impressing fans. In the last 9 rounds, Olivier Glasner's charges have only beaten crisis-ridden Burnley (3:0), tied three times and lost 5 times. After drawing with Nottingham Forest (1:1), the Eagles lost to Bournemouth (1:0) and Manchester City last weekend (2:4). Having taken an early lead with a goal from Mateta, the Londoners failed to hold the advantage: Kevin De Bruyne got a brace, while Rico Lewis and Erling Holland scored one goal each. It's worth noting that Palace are 14th overall for points earned on the road this campaign with just 14 in 16 meetings. The Eagles' squad still lacks Johnstone (goalkeeper), Richards and Guehi (defenders), Cheik Doucoure (midfielder), Holding (defender), and young midfielder Mateus Franca - all injured. Midfielder Raciakyi is on the brink of returning to the main group, but is unlikely to recover for this round. Last weekend, Mateta (7 goals and 4 assists) netted against City, as did Frenchman Edward (7 goals), boosting their chances of starting this time. Winger Olise (6 goals and 3 assists) returned last round and will also be orchestrating the tricolour attacks. Head to Head In the first round, Liverpool beat Crystal Palace 2:1, however, the previous two head-to-head meetings between the teams ended in a draw. Prediction for Liverpool Crystal Palace match Liverpool are in the thick of the race for the championship title and simply cannot afford to stumble at home against a crisis-ridden middle-of-the-league team. In addition, the hosts are motivated to make amends to the fans for the Europa League fiasco last Thursday. Palace have basically lost all motivation and are simply playing out the season for their own pleasure I forecast victory for the Reds with a handicap -1.5.

West Ham United

The match is over

Odds: 3.65Stake: 5/10

On Sunday, the 14th of April, as part of the 33rd round of the Premier League, West Ham will host Fulham at their home ground. "The Cottagers" have settled at the 13th spot in the league table and are no longer competing for anything in the remaining matches, while the hosts still have a decent chance of finishing in a European slot. Probable Line-ups West Ham:Fabianski; Coufal, Mavropanos, Zouma, Emerson; Alvarez, Soucek; Kudus, Ward-Prowse, Paqueta; Antonio.Fulham:Leno; Castagne, Adarabioyo, Bassey, Robinson; Palhinha, Cairney; Iwobi, Pereira, Willian; Muniz. West Ham Sitting 7th in the Premier League table with a game in hand and trailing the top six by just a point, West Ham is hoping to secure European football. In recent weeks, the Hammers have been impressive: in their last seven matches they've lost just once, winning three times and drawing thrice. After a 4:3 defeat to Newcastle, David Moyes' team clinched a draw with Tottenham (1:1), and then secured a 2:1 victory against Wolverhampton last weekend. Pablo Sarabia put the visitors ahead in the 33rd minute, but Paqueta and Ward-Prowse turned the tables in the second half. It's worth noting that West Ham has been struggling at home in the current Premier League campaign: with just 25 points from 16 home matches, this record makes them the 11th best in the division, scoring 26 and conceding 23. Fulham Currently sitting at the 13th place in the Premier League with 39 points, Fulham is no longer targeting anything in the remaining fixtures as the season is nearing its end. Prior to the international break in March, the London side made quite an impression, thrashing Tottenham 3:0. However, since then, Marco Silva's team hasn't performed that well, drawing with bottom-placed Sheffield United (3:3), then successively losing to Nottingham Forest (3:1) and Newcastle last weekend (0:1). The only goal by Bruno Guimaraes in the 81st minute decided the latter game. It's vital to note that Fulham has conceded three goals in each of their last two away matches and gathered merely 11 points in 16 away games, which is the fifth-worst record in the division. The club's coaching staff can count on an optimal squad for this match. Head-to-Head Fulham trashed West Ham 5:0 in the first leg, but before this they had failed to defeat the Hammers in nine consecutive head-to-head matches! Prediction for the West Ham vs Fulham match Considering the teams' inconsistency in their performances, predicting the outcome of this match is difficult. David Moyes will need to make changes to his starting line-up with the upcoming second leg against Bayer in mind, while the "Cottagers" have been dreadful on the road and last won against West Ham away back in 2004. My prediction is a draw. Total Prediction Both sides possess quality in attack and are, on average, scoring 1.5 goals per game this season. My prediction is "both teams to score". Corner Forecast Boosted by the home support, West Ham will dominate possession and be the more aggressive side in attack, thus, the corner victory goes to the Hammers. Yellow Cards Forecast Both teams earn, on average, 2.2 yellow cards per game, therefore, confidently bet on over 3.5 total bookings. Score Prediction I predict a 1:1 final score.

On Saturday, 13th April, in the 33rd round of the Premier League, Brentford will host Sheffield United. The "Bees" are in a prolonged crisis, having not tasted victory in nine consecutive games. Meanwhile, the "Blades" have nearly succumbed to the inevitability of relegation, now playing without tournament tension. Predicted Lineups Brentford:Flekken; Zanka, Collins, Ajer; Roerslev, Onyeka, Jensen, Janelt, Reguilon; Mbeumo, Toney.Sheffield United:Grbic; Holgate, Ahmedhodzic, Trusty; Bogle, Souza, Norwood, Hamer, Osborn; Brereton Diaz, McBurnie. Stadium The showdown will take place in London at the Brentford Community Stadium. Brentford Brentford is facing relegation this season, occupying an uncharacteristic 15th position in the Premier League standings, only four points from the drop zone. Failing to win in the last nine rounds (four draws and five losses), Thomas Frank's team understandably worries its fans. However, since returning from the international break in March, their form has improved; they've secured draws three times with Manchester United (1:1), Brighton (0:0), and Aston Villa last weekend (3:3). In the final half-hour of the game, the Birmingham side lead by two goals, but Mathias Jorgensen, Bryan Mbeumo, and Yoane Wissa turned the match around before Ollie Watkins restored parity on the scoreboard at the very end. Since September 2017, the hosts have not had a ten-match run without victories in the championship, so motivation won't be lacking for the red-whites this Saturday. Sheffield United Sheffield United languishes at the bottom of the table with just 16 points from 31 games. With a single game in hand and 9 points separating the "Blades" from 17th place Nottingham Forest, the Striped ones have no illusions about their chances to avoid relegation. The guests have won just once, drawn five times and lost nine times in their last 15 games. After a defeat against Liverpool (3:1), Chris Wilder's charges managed to snatch a draw from Chelsea last weekend (2:2). Jayden Bogle scored his first goal since August last year in between goals from Thiago Silva and Noni Madueke, before Oli McBurnie equalised in the 93rd minute it was his sixth goal at home this season. Meanwhile, Sheffield has as expected the fewest away points (total of six) in the Premier League this campaign. Head to Head The "Blades" have beaten Brentford in each of their last three encounters with an aggregate score of 6:3, and the first round duel also ended in the underdog's favour (1:0). Match Forecast for Brentford Sheffield United While Sheffield United has somewhat sprung to life in the recent rounds, it's doubtful the visitors will be able to stop a Brentford side motivated by recent defeats, especially as the Londoners' injury list is gradually shrinking. The hosts are only 4 points clear of the drop zone, and they simply cannot afford to stumble in a home match against the league's main outsider. My prediction is a victory for the favourite. Total Forecast Brentford has scored 25 goals in 16 home games this season, while the "Blades" have the league's worst defence: 35 goals conceded in 15 away matches. My prediction is for the home team's ITO (Individual Total Over) to exceed 1.5 goals. Corner Forecast With the support of their home crowd, Brentford will play as the superior side and will attack a lot, so we're confidently backing the hosts on corners. Yellow Cards Forecast Sheffield averages 3 yellow cards per game, and the Blades will have to foul often against the technical attacking players of the opposition. Score Forecast I'm placing a bet for a precise score of 2:1 in Brentford's favour.

On Saturday, 13 April, as part of Matchday 33 in the Premier League, Nottingham Forest will host Wolverhampton on their home ground. 'The Foresters' are battling for survival, narrowly beating Luton Town only by additional metrics and lying in the relegation zone, whereas the visitors still have chances to finish in the Eurocup zone. Predicted Lineups Nottingham Forest:Sels; Williams, Omobamidele, Murillo, Aina; Yates, Sangare; Elanga, Gibbs-White, Hudson-Odoi; Wood.Wolverhampton:Sa; Dawson, Kilman, Toti; Semedo, Lemina, Doyle, Gomes, Doherty; Sarabia, Cunha. Nottingham Forest Nottingham Forest finds themselves in serious danger of relegation this season, as the Football Association docked the club 4 points for disciplinary action against financial machinations. As a result of this sanction, the team currently sits 17th in the Premier League table, tied on points with Luton Town. After five unsuccessful matchdays (two draws and three defeats), Nottingham Town bounced back with a 3:1 victory against Fulham, but the last weekend, the Red and Whites suffered a fiasco from Tottenham (also 3:1). Murillo turned the ball into his own net in the early minutes, but Chris Wood soon restored parity just before the half-hour mark; however, the Spurs turned the tide of the match in the second half with the efforts of Van de Veen and Pedro Porro. On a positive note, the hosts have a chance to win two consecutive home matches for the first time since August of last year. In terms of points earned at home, Nuno Espirito's men rank 14th overall. Wolverhampton Sitting in 11th place in the Premier League table, Wolverhampton has spared themselves end-of-season nerves. Indeed, the Wolves still retain theoretical chances to finish in the Eurocup zone, but they are 7 points behind 6th place, making this scenario seem unlikely. Over the last 5 matchdays, the Wolves have only managed one win, one draw, and three defeats: after a 1:1 draw with the sinking Burnley, the visitors lost 1:2 at home to West Ham last weekend. Lucas Paqueta and James Ward-Prowse were on the scoresheet for the Hammers after Pablo Sarabia put Gary O'Neil's charges ahead with a first-half penalty. In the dying minutes of the game, a goal from Max Kilman was disallowed due to offside to the referee's judgement following VAR consultation. Significantly, Wolverhampton ranks only 10th overall in terms of points gathered on the road (a mere 18 in 16 meetings away from home). Head-to-head record The Wolves haven't lost any of their last five away league matches against Nottingham Forest, dating back to a 3:1 defeat in March 2013. Predictions for the Nottingham Forest vs Wolverhampton match Neither team approaches this Saturday's match in high spirits, but both see it as a good opportunity to gain maximum points and trigger a positive run in the final part of the season. The last two head-to-head duels between the clubs ended in 1:1 draws, and we might well see another draw at City Ground. Over/Under Predictions In all three previous head-to-head matches, the teams exchanged goals. Considering that both teams are in desperate need of points, we should not expect a closed play here I'm backing both teams to score. Corner Predictions Nottingham Forest simply can't afford to slip up and will try to take the initiative and keep the ball from the opening minutes. I'm backing the Red and Whites to win on corners. Yellow Card Predictions Given the importance of the match result, there is no doubt that players will give their all on the pitch no one will spare themselves in the confrontations. I expect at least 4 yellow cards to be shown to both teams. Score Predictions I'm betting on the exact score of 1:1.

On Saturday, 13th April within the 33rd round of the EPL, Bournemouth will host Manchester United on their home field. The Cherries no longer have a tournament motivation and are finishing the season at their leisure, while the visitors are still hoping for a finish in the European Cup zone. Bournemouth Bournemouth, which is in the lower half of the league table, occupies the 12th place in the Premier League and finishes the season with no motivation left in the remaining rounds. Recently, the Cherries have achieved decent results, going unbeaten in five games (4 wins and 1 draw). However, they suffered a setback last weekend: travelling away to a sinking Luton Town, the red-and-blacks capitulated to the Hatters (2:1). This, of course, deprived themselves of any lingering hopes of a European Cup zone finish. Marcus Tavernier put the Southern side ahead seven minutes into the second half, but the underdog levelled the score thanks to a precise strike from Jordan Clark, and Carlton Morris slammed in the winning goal on the 90th minute. This condemned Andoni Iraola's charges to their 12th defeat of the season. Bournemouth occupies only the 13th place in the overall standings in terms of points scored at home (23 in 16 domestic clashes). The team's squad still lacks right-back Fredericks and winger Sinisterra due to injuries. In addition, the physical readiness of centre back Mepham is questionable. Despite last weekend's defeat, Tavernier (3 goals and 4 assists) and Kluivert (5 goals and 1 assist) will once again form the attacking partnership, and will be joined by experienced Dominic Solanke (16 goals and 3 assists) and talented Semenyo (7 goals and 2 assists). Lloyd Kelly returned to action from a minor injury last weekend, and Marcos Senesi even came on as a substitute in the second half; both defenders are likely to start this Saturday. Manchester United Manchester United has failed to meet expectations this season, dropping completely out of the fight for the "big quartet". The Red Devils are currently only 6th in the Premier League and are hoping for a spot in the Europa League or the Conference League. Their form has dipped in recent times: after losing 4:3 to Chelsea, the team showed resilience and managed a 2:2 draw against Liverpool at home at the weekend. Stunning strikes from Bruno Fernandes and Kobi Mainu in the second half put the Mancunians ahead, but with six minutes to go, Mohamed Salah equalised with a penalty after Aaron Wan-Bissaka fouled on Harvey Elliott. Manchester United got past Merseyside (4:3 after extra time) in the FA Cup in March and will meet Championship side Coventry City in the semi-finals. United's squad misses key defenders Shaw, Lisandro Martnez, Lindelf, holding midfielder McTominay, and Malasiya along with Martial, due to injuries. Centre-backs Varane and Evans, who were absent in the last round, are also unlikely to recover in time for this Saturday's match. Bruno Fernandes (6 goals and 6 assists) and Mainu are expected to start after a strong showing against Liverpool, while the attacking trio of Rashford (7 goals and 2 assists), Garnacho (7 goals and 3 assists) and Hojlund (7 goals and 2 assists) should also feature. Nineteen-year-old Willy Kambwala will continue to operate in the heart of the defence alongside Harry Maguire. Head to Head The first-leg match between these teams ended in a sensational 0:3 rout of Man United at Old Trafford. However, prior to that, the Red Devils had won three in a row. Predictions for the Match: Bournemouth - Manchester United In the coming weeks, Manchester United will have to make significant efforts, as the visitors simply cannot afford to drop points if they want to keep their hopes of a top five finish alive. Bournemouth, on the other hand, are just ticking off the games with tournament motivation no longer playing a part even with all the problems Man United is experiencing, the Cherries simply can't be considered favourites for this tie. My prediction is a draw or win for Erik ten Hag's side.

On Saturday, 13 April, as part of the 33rd game week of the Premier League, Manchester City will host Luton Town on their home turf. In the preceding Tuesday, the hosts put on a vibrant performance in Madrid against Real Madrid in the Champions League quarterfinals (3:3), while the "Hatters" are fighting for survival and occupy a mere 18th spot in the overall ranking. Predicted Lineups Manchester City: Ortega; Akanji, Dias, Guardiola; Lewis, Kovacic; Doku, De Bruyne, Nunes, Grealish; Haaland. Luton Town: Kaminski; Hashioka, Mengi, Berk; Onyedinma, Barkley, Clark, Doherty; Townsend, Chong; Morris. Manchester City Holder of 5 out of the last 6 English championship titles, Manchester City is once again striving to win the national championship this season. Currently, the citizens occupy the 3rd place in the Premier League table, one point behind Arsenal and Liverpool. In the last sixteen rounds, Guardiola's wards have not suffered a single defeat (12 wins and 4 draws). After twice sharing the points with direct rivals Liverpool (1:1) and Arsenal (0:0), City resumed their victorious march in April, easily prevailing over Aston Villa (4:1) and Crystal Palace (2:4) last weekend. This week, the citizens took a trip to Real Madrid, where they achieved a comfortable draw in the first match of the Champions League quarterfinals (3:3), with goals from Phil Foden, Josko Guardiola, and Bernardo Silva. It's important to mention that the hosts occupy only third place in the overall home performance standings: in 16 home matches, 38 points were collected, 38 goals were scored, and 13 were conceded. Manchester City will be without key defenders Walker and Ake due to injuries this weekend, however, first-choice goalkeeper Ederson has returned to the full squad. Erling Haaland (19 goals) has only scored one goal in all competitions since 6 March and had a poor performance at Santiago Bernabeu last Tuesday. Key player De Bruyne (3 goals and 6 assists in 11 matches) marked a brace in the last round, but remained on the bench in Madrid due to food poisoning we definitely expect to see the Belgian in the starting lineup. The main attacking force of the team at the current time is Phil Foden (14 goals and 7 assists), while Nunes will replace Rodri in the midfield. Luton Town Having made it to the elite division last summer, Luton Town currently occupies 18th place in the Premier League table, matching the going-above Nottingham Forest in points. Last weekend, Ross Barkley's team achieved a critical victory for themselves over Bournemouth with a 2:1 score, and this result has rekindled the Hatters hopes to maintain their Premier League status and put an end to 10 games without a win (3 draws and 7 losses). Marcus Tavernier put the Cherries in front seven minutes after the break, but the White and Blue restored parity on the scoreboard thanks to a precise strike from Jordan Clark, and Carlton Morris made the Kenilworth Road tribune ecstatic by scoring a winning goal in the 90th minute. At the same time, it should be noted that Luton this season has won only two out of 16 away matches of the championship, collecting only 10 points on the road. Rob Edwards' side's injury list for this weekend is still lengthy. Among them are key attacker Adebayo (the club's top scorer with nine goals), experienced defenders Lockyer, Osho, Andersen, and Bell, midfielders Nakamba and Lokonga, winger Ogbene (4 goals), as well as Potts and Jacob Brown. Striker Carlton Morris (9 goals and 4 assists), who scored in the match against Bournemouth, is expected to start once again this Saturday. Ross Barkley (4 goals and 4 assists) conducts Lutons play in the midfield, while January signing Daiki Hashioka will replace centre-back Rhys Berk or Teden Mengi. Tahith Chong is expected to start on the right wing, with Fred Onyedinma responsible for balance in the midfield. Head to Head Over 16 previous attempts, the Hatters have never won against the reigning English champions on their turf and lost all nine recent matches with an overall score of 27:2. Match prediction for Manchester City - Luton Town The Citizens are virtually unbeatable at the Etihad, and it's hard to picture the reigning English champions, vying for another title, faltering against an EPL underdog. Even in the case of potential lineup rotation, Guardiola can count on top-tier performers, a luxury the Hatters can't afford due to their bursting-at-the-seams injury list. My prediction is a victory for the favourite with a -2.5 handicap.

On Saturday, 13th of April, as part of the 33rd round of the Premier League (PL), Newcastle United is set to host Tottenham on their home turf. The Magpies are currently on a roll and haven't been defeated in their last three matches, while the Spurs have solidified their position in the Champions League spot and cannot afford any slip-ups. Predicted Lineups Newcastle: Dubravka; Kraft, Sher, Bern, Hall; Longstaff, Gmaraes, Anderson; Barnes, Isak, Gordon. Tottenham: Vcaro; Porro, Romero, Van de Veen, Udgie; Bentancur, Bissma; Johnson, Maddison, Werner; Son. Newcastle Despite reaching the top 4 at the end of last season, Newcastle seems to be struggling this term. Currently in the 8th position on the Premier League standings, the Magpies are entirely out of the Champions League contention. However, Eddie Howe's side still have a shot at the lower-ranked European tournaments as they are just 2 points behind the sixth spot. Moreover, their successful run in April has been quite delightful for the fans with the hosts having won 3 out of 5 latest games in the national championship with only one defeat. After scoring a draw at home with Everton (1:1), Newcastle continued their unbeaten run by defeating Fulham last weekend with a score line of 1:0 - Bruno Gmaraes scoring the solitary goal nine minutes before the end of the match. It is important to note that the Magpies haven't tasted defeat in their last five home games, having scored 14 goals in the process.Newcastle will miss several key players this weekend. Names on the injury list include: Pope (goalkeeper), Botman and Trippier, Livramento, Joelinton, Almirn and Wilson (7 goals scorer), as well as substitute defender Lascelles and the promising 17-year-old midfielder Myli. Tottenham Tottenham currently sits at the 4th spot in the Premier League table and having a game in hand, they have bagged the same number of points as the following Aston Villa (both on 60 points) which provides an excellent opportunity for the Spurs to get back in the Champions League spot. Their confidence is boosted by the fact that in the last six rounds, they have conceded only once, with four victories and one draw. Head-to-Head The Londoners have defeated Newcastle in four of the last six visits to St James Park, and the first-round meet ended in a big win for the Spurs with a score line of 4:1. Match prediction for Newcastle - Tottenham Both teams understand the importance of bagging maximum points this weekend. Newcastle still stands a chance at finishing in the European tournament zone, while Tottenham have the same number of points as Aston Villa in the fight for the Champions League spot. My prediction is a draw.

On Saturday, the 13th of April in the scope of the Premier League's 33rd round, Burnley will host Brighton on their home field. The hosts currently occupy the 19th position in the overall league standings, being six points away from the safety of the 17th spot, while the Seagulls, claim the 10th place and have managed to gain only 1 point in their previous three matches. Predicted line-ups Burnley:Muric; Assignon, Delcroix, Esteve, Taylor; Foster, Cullen, Berge, Larsen; Odobert, Fofana.Brighton:Verbruggen; Lamptey, Van Hecke, Dunk, Estupinan; Gross, Baleba; Adingra, Pedro, Enciso; Welbeck. Stadium The clash will take place in Burnley at Turf Moor Stadium. Burnley Burnley's return to the top-flight division isn't going too well, as they currently sit at 19th in the league table, trailing 6 points behind 17th placed Nottingham Forest. Vincent Kompany's proteges still have chances to maintain their Premier League status, but the outcomes are not too promising. Indeed, in the last 14 rounds, Clarets won only against Brentford, played a draw five times, and conceded defeat eight times. After lively draws with Chelsea (2:2) and Wolverhampton (1:1), the hosts were defeated by a crisis-stricken Everton last weekend with Calvert-Lewin's sole goal on the 45th minute determining the outcome. Next week Burnley is to play a crucial match against another league outsider Sheffield United, and by the end of the month, they are set to visit Manchester and then host Nottingham Forest. Kompany's team owns the worst home performance in the championship this season, having only gained nine points in 16 matches at Turf Moor with 16 goals netted and 36 conceded. Brighton Brighton occupies the 10th position in the Premier League table but still maintains a fighting chance to finish in the Europa League zone (being 6 points behind the top six). However, this would require some serious effort from the Seagulls, as their recent form has been a disappointment to their supporters, boasting only one win in their last six league games, along with two draws and three losses. After a goalless draw against Brentford, the South Coasters were annihilated by Arsenal (0:3) last weekend, with Saka, Havertz, and Trossard each finding the net. To add insult to injury, Brighton was knocked out of the Europa League by Roma in the round of 16, with an aggregate score of 4:1. In the next round, De Zerbi's men will be hosting Manchester City, emphasising the urgency of grabbing points this Saturday. It is important to note that the Whites and Blues only manage to claim the 12th position in overall away team standings, with only 16 points in 16 matches, netting 23 and conceding 30 goals. Head-to-Head In the last five Premier League encounters against Burnley, Seagulls claimed only one victory, with the first leg of this season ending in a 1:1 draw. Burnley vs Brighton Match Prediction Burnley managed to secure no more than four victories throughout the campaign, making it hard to assume that they would succeed against a Brighton team motivated for the Europa League qualifications. Certainly, the Seagulls' recent performances were disappointing, but De Zerbi's charges, despite the squad issues, have greatly skilled players and, last autumn, even topped their Europa League group. I'm confidently backing the away win. Goals Total Prediction I don't expect a goal fest in this encounter: for Burnley, it's extremely important to not concede first, while Brighton, not in their best form, will likely not force the game pace. My prediction Total Under 3 goals. Corner Prediction Clarets, supported by their home crowd, will try to occasionally threaten the opponent's citadel with dangerous moves; thus, I predict the host's Individual Total Over 3.5 corners. Yellow Card Prediction Neither team is known for excessively rough gameplay (averaging around 2 yellow cards per match), hence my prediction is Total Under 3.5 yellow cards. Correct Score Prediction I'll go for a precise score of 0:1 in Brighton's favour.

On Sunday, 7th April, as part of the 32nd round of the Premier League, Tottenham will host Nottingham Forest on their home ground. Last week, the "Spurs" drew with West Ham (1:1), while the "Foresters" achieved an impressive victory over Fulham and moved away from the relegation zone. Predicted Lineups Tottenham:Vicario; Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Udogie; Bentancur, Bissouma; Johnson, Maddison, Werner; Son.Nottingham Forest:Sels; Williams, Omobamidele, Murillo, Aina; Danilo, Yates; Elanga, Gibbs-White, Hudson-Odoi; Wood. Stadium The match will take place in London at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Tottenham Currently in the 5th place in the Premier League table with one game in hand and trailing the top four by two points, Tottenham aims for a Champions League place. Recently, the Spurs have shown excellent form, having significantly approached the "big four": in their last 11 rounds, they have suffered only two defeats, achieving 6 victories and 3 drawn matches. Ange Postecoglou's side logically overcame crisis-ridden Luton last weekend (2:1) and subsequently drew with West Ham earlier this week (1:1). Brennan Johnson's goal on the 5th minute ended Tottenham's six-match streak without scoring in the first half, but Kurt Zouma restored parity on the 19th minute. It's important to note that the hosts are unbeaten in 11 home Premier League matches in a row! Nonetheless, in terms of earned points at home, the Whites rank only sixth overall (33 in 15 matches) despite having 31 goals scored and 20 conceded. Nottingham Forest This season, Nottingham Forest is fighting for survival, currently occupying the 17th place in the Premier League table, three points above the relegation zone. Earlier this week, Nuno Espirito Santos team managed to breathe a sigh of relief after a phenomenal home win over Fulham with a 3:1 scoreline, ending a five-match winless streak (2 draws and 3 deficits). Callum Hudson-Odoi, Morgan Gibbs-White, and Chris Wood shredded Fulham in the first half, prompting the Londoner's coach Marco Silva to make three tactical substitutions before half-time. It's worth noting that despite four penalty points for breaching financial regulations, the Foresters would be ranked 15th without the sanctions. However, Forest hasn't managed to claim a single win in their five away Premier League matches in 2024, accumulating only 10 points overall (17th in the division). Still on the injury list for the visitors is the injured Nigerian forward Awoniyi (6 goals). Head-To-Head In the December clash at City Ground, Forest was trounced 0:2 by the Spurs, marking the hosts' fifth consecutive Premier League triumph over the Foresters. Predictions for the Tottenham vs Nottingham Forest Match Even if the visitors manage to pressurise Postecoglou's wards in the first half, the Spurs boast five consecutive wins over Nottingham Forest, and an in-form Johnson is likely to be motivated to score against his former club. The Londoners are battling for a top-four finish and can't afford to falter against the underdog I'm predicting a victory for the favourite this Sunday (handicap -1). Total Bet Prediction The Spurs consistently average 2 goals per home game in their current campaign, while Forest concedes as many in their away games. My prediction here is an Individual Team Total Over 2 for the favourite. Corner Bet Prediction Tottenham, classified as the dominant side, will seize control of the ball early on, while the Foresters will spend most of their time in defence. I'm predicting an Individual Team Total of Over 5.5 Corners for the London side. Yellow Card Bet Prediction Nottingham will have to make multiple fouls to curb Tottenham's intense attacking blows on the wings I'm expecting the visitors to lead in yellow cards received.

On Sunday, 7th April, within the 32nd round of the Premier League, Sheffield United will host Chelsea on their home turf. Last week, the Londoners triumphed over Manchester United with a high-tension scoreline of 4:3 at home, while Sheffield - the 'Blades' fell to Liverpool at Anfield, basically forfeiting their chances of survival. Predicted Lineups Sheffield United:Grbic; Holgate, Robinson, Ahmedhodzic; Bogle, Arblaster, Hamer, Souza, Trusty; McBurnie, Brereton Diaz.Chelsea:Petrovic; Gusto, Disasi, Badiashile, Cucurella; Caicedo, Fernandez; Palmer, Gallagher, Madueke; Jackson. Stadium The match will take place at Bramall Lane in Sheffield. Sheffield United Sheffield United, now occupying the bottom spot in the Premier League table and having only racked up a mere 15 points in 30 rounds, harbours no illusions regarding their chances of retaining their elite division standing. With a game in hand, the club trails the safety zone 17th spot by a full 10 points and, over their last 14 matches, the 'Blades' have won only against crisis-ridden Luton Town (1:3), managing four draws and suffering nine losses. After securing ties against Bournemouth (2:2) and Fulham (3:3), Chris Wilder's charges capitulated this week to Liverpool at Anfield (3:1). To compound the misery, fans will certainly not be cheered by the following statistic: after 30 rounds, Sheffield United has conceded 90 goals, the worst record in Premier League history. Sheffield also confidently holds the last spot for the number of home-cultivated points: just nine in 15 matches, with 15 goals scored and 45 conceded. Chelsea Chelsea is enduring another disappointing season, holding a modest 10th place in the Premier League table. However, the Londoners can still hope for a place in European cups (they lag behind the sixth spot by 5 points with a game in hand). In recent weeks, the Blues have looked far more convincing, not losing one of their last 6 matches (3 wins and 3 draws). Last weekend, Maurisimo Pochettino's team drew 2:2 at home against stricken Burnley, and this week, they managed to overcome Manchester United 4:3 in a truly crazy match. In the semi-finals of the FA Cup, Chelsea will have to face off against Manchester City, and this is the last opportunity for the guests to claim any trophy in the current campaign. It's worth noting that the visitors only occupy the 9th spot overall in terms of points gained on the road: just 18 in 14 matches, with 24 scored and 25 conceded. Head to Head Matches In December, the Blues easily defeated they Sheffield United with a 2:0 score, securing their fourth consecutive win against the 'Blades'. Prediction for Sheffield United vs Chelsea Match Midweek, Wilder's charges managed to put up a fight against Liverpool, but having been fired up by a spirited win over Manchester United, Chelsea is sure to clinch three points this Sunday. Although the Blues still have a shot at finishing in the European qualification zone, there is no room for further setbacks: they are already trailing by five points. Sheffield is emphatically the worst performing Premier League team when it comes to home matches, so we boldly back Chelsea for a win. Over/Under Prediction Sheffield has conceded 15 goals in their last five tours and boasts the division's worst defence. We confidently back Chelsea's individual total of over 1.5 goals. Corners Prediction Chelsea will take charge from the off and hold the ball under their control. We're backing a Chelsea win on corners. Yellow Cards Prediction Sheffield accrues almost three yellow cards per match and will likely commit plenty of fouls - we predict Sheffield will receive more than 2.5 yellow cards. Score Prediction We're backing a precise score of 0:2 in Chelsea's favour.

On Sunday, 7th April, within the scope of the EPL's 32nd round, Manchester United will host Liverpool on their home ground. Unbelievably, the Mancunians lost 4:3 to Chelsea last Thursday, while the Merseysiders, routing Sheffield, reclaimed their top position in the general score. Projected Lineups Manchester United: Onana; Wan-Bissaka, Maguire, Kambwala, Dalot; McTominay, Mainu; Antony, Fernandes, Garnacho; Hojlund. Liverpool: Kelleher; Bradley, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Mac Allister, Endo, Soboszlai; Salah, Nunez, Dias. Manchester United Manchester United has been struggling to live up to fans' expectations this season and seems to have lost all chances to make it to the Champions League. Placed sixth in the Premier League table, the "Red Devils" strive for a ticket to the less prestigious UEFA competitions. Regrettably, the recent weeks show a poor performance as seen in their sole victory amid three defeats in the last five rounds. Last weekend, Manchester United drew 1:1 with Brentford, and this week they lost to Chelsea, conceding 2 goals in added time (4:3) Cole Palmer scored the double on the 99th and 101st minutes. To top it off, the Mancunians have claimed just one victory in the last five EPL games at Old Trafford, gaining only four points during this period. On the bright side, Erik ten Hag's side beat Liverpool in the FA Cup (4-3 after extra time) and will face Coventry in the semi-final. Manchester United's squad remains without key defenders Shaw, Lisandro Martinez, and Lindelof, who joined the injured reserve list along with substitute goalkeeper Bayindiru, Malasia, and Martial. The Argentinian winger Garnacho (7 goals and 3 assists), who scored twice at Stamford Bridge this week, is likely to return to the starting lineup; playmaker Bruno Fernandes (5 goals and 6 assists), Rashford (7 goals and 2 assists), and Hojlund (7 goals and 2 assists) will assist him. Unquestionably one of the season's breakthroughs, the England national team's new central midfielder Kobby Mainu (18 years old), will probably join a partnership with Casemiro in the middle of the pitch. Liverpool In Jurgen Klopp's last season as Liverpool's coach, the Merseysiders have set their sights on winning the Premier League. At the moment, the visitors are leading the standings, surpassing the trailing Arsenal by 2 points. After the 3:1 defeat to the "Gunners" early February, the Reds haven't succumbed in the league (6 wins and 1 draw). Following a draw at Anfield with Manchester City (1:1), Liverpool have beaten Brighton last weekend (2:1) and Sheffield United, currently in the last place, this week (3:1). Darwin Nunez opened the score at the start of their match, yet Conor Bradley unfortunately sent the ball into his own team's net. Still, Alexis Mac Allister pulled the Reds ahead again with a powerful strike from outside the box, and Cody Gakpo resolved all doubt. The team also won the League Cup in February and keeps taking part in the Europa League: it's hosting Atalanta in the first quarterfinal game on Thursday. Liverpool's squad remains without goalkeeper Alisson, defender Alexander-Arnold, key winger Diogo Jota, and also Matip, Thiago Alcantara, and Baicetic - all of them are injured. The Japanese midfielder Endo was also out this week, and the decision about his participation will be made just before kick-off. Cody Gakpo (6 goals and 3 assists) gets substituted more often and managed to score in the last round, although the attacking trio will undeniably consist of Salah (16 goals and 9 assists), Luis Dias (7 goals and 4 assists), and Nunez (11 goals and 7 assists). Argentinian midfielder Mac Allister (4 goals and 5 assists) orchestrates the Reds' midfield, while Van Dijk and Konate fortify the defense center. Head-to-head Despite the scoreless draw with Man United at Anfield in the first round, the "Red Devils" recently knocked the Merseysiders out of the FA Cup quarter-final (4:3). Match prediction Manchester United - Liverpool Erik ten Hag's charges are psychologically in the dumps after the dramatic fiasco at Stamford Bridge, and there is no doubt that Liverpool will want to take revenge on their recent offenders for the FA Cup exit. The Merseysiders continue to fight for the championship title, they simply cannot afford to fail - Arsenal is lagging behind by only 2 points in the table. The visitors are currently in much better form and should emerge victorious.

On Saturday, 6 April, within the framework of the EPL's 32nd round, Everton will host Burnley at Goodison Park. The Toffees have been without a win for 10 consecutive matches and are only 4 points clear of the relegation zone, while Vincent Kompany's charges sit in 19th place in the league table. Everton Everton were sanctioned by the Football Association with a 6-point deduction for financial breaches and are now fighting to avoid relegation from the top division. Occupying 16th place in the Premier League table, even with a game in hand, they are just four points clear of the bottom trio. Fans are alarmed by the fact that the Toffees have not won any of their past 13 national championship clashes (6 draws and 7 losses). Having successively lost to West Ham (3-1), Manchester United (2-0) and Bournemouth (2-1), the Blues managed to secure a draw this week against Newcastle, who are highly motivated for the European cups (1-1). Alexander Isak opened the scoring in the 15th minute, but the Magpies paid for their poor finishing, with Calvert-Lewin restoring parity on the score board on the 88th minute from the penalty spot. It's significant that Everton lost nine of their last fourteen home meetings with recently promoted teams. Moreover, the hosts are ranked fourth from bottom in the overall standings based on points gained at Goodison Park: only 13 points have been earned in 14 clashes, with 15 goals scored and 18 conceded. For a long while, injury has kept the likes of Dele Alli, winger Danjuma, and striker Dobbin out of the side. After an excellent midweek performance, Idrissa Gana Gueye and Andre Onana could return to midfield, with Calvert-Lewin (4 goals) set to outcompete Betu (3 goals) to lead the attacking line. Fully recovered from a calf muscle problem, Andre Gomes could bolster the line-up from the substitutes' bench following his final 30-minute stint against Newcastle. Garner and Jack Harrison will ensure reliability in the holding zone. Burnley Currently, Burnley sit in 19th position in the Premier League table, trailing the safety of 17th place by 6 points. This notwithstanding, their survival chances are far from depleted. In recent weeks, Vincent Kompanys squad have found good form and didnt suffer a single loss in the last four rounds. Over this period, they managed to triumph over Brentford (2-1), while drawing with West Ham (2-2), Chelsea (2-2), and Wolves earlier this week (1-1). Jakob Bruun Larsen netted his second goal at Turf Moor, putting the Clarets ahead in the 37th minute. However, Rayan Ait-Nouri quickly restored parity on the scoresheet at the end of the half and no more goals were seen. It is worth noting that Burnley haven't won on the road since 23rd December when they defeated Fulham (2-0). Indeed, the Clarets rank fourth from the bottom in the overall tally of points earned on the road, having gathered only 10 points from 15 contests, scoring 16 and conceding 30 goals. Last week, Kompany unfortunately announced the injuries of wingers Koleosho and Ramsey, alongside midfielder Redmond. The physical readiness of defenders Al-Dahila and Bayer remains uncertain, whilst right-back Assuncao is still serving a ban. The attack duo will again consist of winter acquisition Dantro Fofana (4 goals in 9 matches) and Foster (4 goals and 3 assists). It's expected that Muric will have his fourth consecutive start between the sticks in lieu of Trafford, while the defensive quartet will be formed by Vitinho, Dara O'Shea, Maxime Esteve, and Charlie Taylor. Head-to-Head The Clarets have lost six of their last eight meetings against Everton, having only won twice in October 2017 (1-0) and in March 2021 (2:1). The round's opening duel culminated in a victory for the Blues on the road (0:2). Predictions for the Everton - Burnley match Both teams aim to snatch maximum points in this clash, as the encounter's outcome would greatly influence their relevant battle for survival. Everton are deep in crisis, having been winless for 10 straight matches, while Burnley have been showcasing decent results this spring. I reckon the visitors have a fair shot to at the very least avoid defeat at Goodison Park (handicap +1).
