A SUPERCOMPUTER has predicted the results for the Premier League’s Boxing Day line-up of matches.
There are five games scheduled for the day after Christmas as part of a busy festive period.
Newcastle welcome Nottingham Forest to St. James’ Park in the early kick-off, with Liverpool also in action at Burnley.
Manchester United and Aston Villa will conclude the day’s play at Old Trafford in an 8pm kick-off.
BestGamblingSites’ supercomputer has predicted the results of all five matches ahead of Boxing Day.

Manager form and home team advantage were also considered by the supercomputer.
Newcastle fans are in for a nightmare after Christmas if the predicted results come true.
The supercomputer expects Eddie Howe’s side to fall to a 2-1 home defeat against Forest.
Forest have not won a league game at St. James’ Park since 1988 but the Magpies have a shocking record on Boxing Day, winning just once since 2013.

Fulham are predicted to win 3-0 away to Bournemouth along with a 1-0 win for Luton at Sheffield United in the 3pm matches.
Liverpool are also expected to have plenty of festive cheer thanks to a 4-0 win at Burnley..
Meanwhile, there will not be a record-extending Boxing Day win for United.
The Red Devils have won 21 of their 27 Premier League matches on December 26, giving them the best record of any side in the league’s history.
Erik ten Hag’s side are predicted to be held to a 2-2 draw by high-flying Villa, though, despite winning eight of their last 10 league meetings at Old Trafford.
Villa do have an encouraging recent record against United, however, beating their opponents at home last November as well as securing a 1-0 win on the road in April 2021.
The Boxing Day line-up of matches will be followed by five more fixtures on December 27 and 28 to complete matchday 19.
Amongst those involved later in the week are Manchester City, who visit Everton, and Arsenal in a home clash with West Ham.
