    Burnley v Luton
    A battle between two of the Premier League’s poorer teams, both threatened by relegation back to the Championship as its stands.
    The Clarets have played ten, won one and lost nine at Turf Moor in the top flight this season – comfortably the worst home record among the 20 clubs.
    The Hatters have fared marginally better than Burnley since promotion, they’re four points ahead with a game in hand, but 15 points from 19 games isn’t much to shout about.
    We’re tempted to edge it to the visitors but we suspect it may end in a stalemate that satisfies nobody.

    Our Prediction: 1-1 draw
    Chelsea v Fulham

    Regular Score Predictor users will know that Mauricio Pochettino’s troops are predictably unpredictable.
    Take this week as an example, the Blues had won three games in a row and looked quite good in the process prior to their dismal 1-0 defeat to Middlesbrough in the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg – you just don’t know what you’re going to get from them.
    Strangely, both these teams would prefer the fixture to be at Craven Cottage as Chelsea have a worse home record while Fulham have struggled only the road – only Newcastle and Sheffield United have earned fewer points away from home in 2023/24.
    Here’s the thing, only Liverpool have generated more xG than the Blues this season – even a slight improvement in finishing would yield substantial results.
    Our Prediction: 2-1 to Chelsea

    Newcastle v Manchester City
    Game-changerCredit: Getty
    The Magpies enjoyed a satisfying win over Sunderland in the Tyne-Wear derby but they’re in danger of a reality check this weekend against a Manchester City side bolstered by the returns of Kevin De Bruyne and Jeremy Doku from injury – Erling Haaland may join the party too.
    Eddie Howe’s side have suffered defeats to Everton, Spurs, Luton, Forest and Liverpool in their last six league games – a 3-0 win over Fulham provided some relief but there’s no denying their defence have floundered of late.
    City haven’t necessarily been at their fluent best but they head into this fixture have won their last five in a row in all competitions – Phil Foden and Julian Alvarez have thoroughly enjoyed themselves in recent outings.
    Newcastle still boast a formidable record at St James’ Park having won eight of their ten league games but that will be put to the test on Saturday as Pep Guardiola’s side boast the best away record this term.
    The hosts’ underlying numbers over the last month are a serious cause for concern – it could get messy for them against the reigning champions.
    Our Prediction: 4-1 to Manchester City
    Everton v Aston Villa
    Sean Dyche has done a good job but he could do with a win sooner rather than laterCredit: GETTY
    After an impressive spell, the Toffees have now gone four games without a win, including three consecutive losses in the league.
    In fairness, two of those defeats came against Spurs and Man City, which can happen, but if such a trend suggests they come unstuck against better sides then that should encourage the Villains, who are sitting pretty in second right now.
    Villa’s away record is modest compared to their imperious home form but Everton average just one point per home fixture this season so we may not see the best of either side
    Sean Dyche has improved his side’s defence considerably but Unai Emery’s men average over two goals per league game this season – a tougher match-up to call that it initially appears.
    Our Prediction: 1-1 draw
    Manchester United v Tottenham
    Timo Werner is expected to make his Spurs debut on SundayCredit: Rex
    Like Chelsea, the Red Devils have frustrated Score Predictor users this season by intermittently blowing hot and cold.
    They mounted a spirited comeback to beat Aston Villa on Boxing Day but followed that up with defeat to Forest at the City Ground a few days later.
    Spurs are hampered by key absentees with Son Heung-min, Yves Bissouma and Pape Matar Sarr having departed for the Asian Cup and AFCON respectively – not to mention an injury crisis at centre-back.
    Still, Ange Postecoglou has overseen five wins in his last six fixtures and the Australian coach’s brand of attacking football is certainly capable of overwhelming a Man United outfit with a soft underbelly.
    Only Liverpool and City have earned more points away from home than Spurs at this stage of the campaign.
    Our Prediction: 3-2 to Tottenham

    Remember, you don’t have to predict the exact outcomes of all five fixtures to land the top prize – that would be asking too much – you simply have to outscore your rivals.
    Some of our previous winners this season claimed amazing prizes having submitted their predictions in ten seconds through sheer gut instinct – it takes no time at all to play and it’s completely free.
    Check out our predictions for Matchweek 21 below…

    Sunderland 1 – 3 Newcastle
    Chelsea 2 – 0 Preston
    Manchester City 5 – 0 Huddersfield
    Arsenal 2 – 2 Liverpool
    Wigan 1 – 2 Manchester United

    The Tyne-Wear derby promises to be a spicy one and while the Magpies have struggled of late, Eddie Howe will know full well what this fixture means to the fans.
    We’re backing the Black Cats to score though, probably via the in-form Jack Clarke, who has 12 Championship goals to his name already this season.
    Keep an eye out for Jobe Bellingham too, brother of Jude.

    We’re not expecting any drama at Stamford Bridge as Preston have lost four of their last five league games and are therefore unlikely to pull off an upset, regardless of the team selections.
    Some of the best teams in the world have crumbled at the Etihad against Pep Guardiola’s treble-winning machine so the visit of a relegation-threatened second-tier outfit has to be considered a massive mismatch.
    Sure, City will probably play some of the kids but youngsters like Oscar Bobb are actually rather good.
    Who knows, Kevin De Bruyne and Erling Haaland may even be eased back into action at some point?
    Arsenal v Liverpool is the most eye-catching match-up of the third round but this could well end up as a contest between two second-string sides.
    Both teams maintain hopes of lifting the Premier League trophy at the end of the season and the two managers will have one eye on the European knockout stages looming on the horizon.

    Mikel Arteta could do with a win but the league remains his priorityCredit: Alamy
    We don’t expect either gaffer to forfeit the FA Cup but this feels like a good opportunity to rest some key players – Bukayo Saka looks in need of a reset, for example.
    To be honest, a draw would be a nuisance to both clubs but we’re inclined to sit on the fence on this occasion.
    Finally, we’re backing Erik ten Hag’s men to get past the team currently 17th in League One – although it should be noted Wigan would be comfortably in the top half were it not for their points deduction.
    However, the Red Devils can’t seem to do anything with much conviction at present so we’re envisaging nervy, narrow win on the road.

    Amazon Prime Premier League pundits forced to flee Goodison Park pitch following Man City clash after being ‘in danger’

    AMAZON PRIME’S team of pundits were forced to flee their position on the Goodison Park pitch last night after being put in “danger” due to the weather.Their cameras were on Merseyside to witness the thrilling Premier League comeback victory for Manchester City at Everton.

    Pep Guardiola’s side looked set to suffer a huge blow to their title aspirations as they trailed 1-0 at the break to Jack Harrison’s strike.
    But they recovered in some style with three second-half goals to lift themselves to fourth in the table and to within five points of leaders Liverpool.
    In blustery conditions, Phil Foden got them level with a thumping strike from outside of the area before City turned it around on 64 minutes.
    Julian Alvarez slotted home a penalty after Amadou Onana’s handball and then Bernardo Silva made it three late on by curling home into an open net after latching on to a Jordan Pickford clearance.

    Steve Bower hosted the coverage as he was joined by former Everton manager Roberto Martinez, ex-Man City full-back Gael Clichy and England legend Michael Owen as pundits on the big screen for Amazon Prime.
    However, after witnessing the whirlwind on the pitch, they were all forced into the stands after the final whistle during a commercial break as the weather took a turn for the worse.

    As the show returned to presenter Bower, the camera panned from their now empty position on the pitch and into the stands, showing the four men sitting in seats that had just been occupied by the raucous home crowd.
    As confused fans looked on, Bower then explained: “Thunder and lightning at Goodison, it’s been rather interesting the last few minutes.

    “We are not really supposed to mention the weather as we are in a privileged position but we were in a little bit of danger so we have re-positioned, Test match cricket style maybe, into the stand.”
    And that did not stop them from conducting their post-match duties as Guardiola soon joined them for an impromptu sit-down interview.
    Assessing his side’s performance, the Cityzens boss said: “We were really good – that’s why we are the best team in the world. I’m sorry.
    “I remind them every day. We have standards to keep and that makes us have more responsibility.
    “So we cannot let the standards go down.” More

    Nottingham Forest star takes swipe at Amazon Prime as they get his nationality wrong in Newcastle clash

    NECO WILLIAMS has taken a swipe at Amazon Prime after they messed up by calling the Nottingham Forest defender “English”.The Wales full-back, 22, came on for the final 20 minutes of Forest’s 3-1 Boxing Day win at Newcastle.

    Williams was waiting on the St James’ Park touchline with team-mate Ryan Yates as new City Ground boss Nuno Espirito Santo made the double change. 
    But match broadcasters Prime made the gaffe when they showed an English flag next to Williams’ name as he replaced Argentina World Cup winner Gonzalo Montiel.
    Williams posted on social media platform X: “Merry Christmas. Three points. Chris Wood (heart eye emoji). Prime Video Sport, I am Welsh (Welsh flag and upside down face emoji).”
    Ex-Liverpool defender Williams has won 36 senior international caps for Wales, scoring three goals.

    He was part of Robert Page’s squad which qualified for the World Cup in Qatar last year and played in all three group games against the USA, Iran and England.
    In total, Williams has made 16 appearances this season for club and country.
    Wrexham-born Williams scored for the Dragons in November’s Euro 2024 qualifying draw against Turkey in Cardiff which condemned Wales to the play-offs.
    Wales face Finland in a home semi-final on March 21 in Cardiff and should Page’s men win that tie then they will take on either Poland or Estonia for a spot in Germany next summer.

    Check out our predictions for Matchweek 20 below…
    Manchester City vs Sheffield United
    Manchester City should claim maximum points against rock-bottom Sheffield United as they look to bridge the gap on Premier League leaders Liverpool and Arsenal.
    The Cityzens made tough work of the reverse fixture back in August, but do boast a 100% record in their last six clashes against the South Yorkshire side.
    Though with six wins from six against Sheffield United since 2019, it’s rarely a rout.
    City have won 1-0 on three occasions and only twice by more than a two-goal margin. It could be a similar story with Chris Wilder back in charge and already showing huge improvement at Bramall Lane.
    Our Prediction: 2-0 to Manchester City
    Manchester City star Julian Alvarez is enjoying a profitable spellCredit: GETTY
    Nottingham Forest vs Manchester United
    Both arrive after excellent results on Boxing Day.
    Nuno Espirito Santo claimed his first win since replacing Steve Cooper with a tremendous 3-1 victory over Newcastle at St James’ Park.
    Chris Wood bagged a hat-trick in that contest, while Morgan Gibbs-White and Anthony Elanga were outstanding on the break, causing all sorts of problems.
    It looked to be further misery for Erik ten Hag’s side against Aston Villa, but goals from Alejandro Garnacho and Rasmus Hojlund completed an outstanding second-half comeback.
    Nuno hasn’t fared too well against United in his managerial career, winning just two of his 10 clashes in all competitions – losing four of those.
    Furthermore, only Arsenal have conceded fewer goals away from home in the Premier League than Manchester United this season, and with spirits high — we think they could be set for a narrow victory.
    Our Prediction: 0-1 to Manchester United
    Chris Wood bagged a hat-trick against Newcastle on Boxing DayCredit: GETTY
    Fulham vs Arsenal
    Revenge will be on the menu for Arsenal, who drew this clash 2-2 at the Emirates Stadium despite boasting a man advantage earlier this season.
    And it looks as though Mikel Arteta’s side meet Fulham at the opportune moment.
    After a great spell that included two five-goal victories, Marco Silva’s side have lost their last three league matches without scoring a goal.
    The Gunners have also won on their last five visits to Craven Cottage by an aggregate score of 15-2.
    Our Prediction: 0-2 to Arsenal
    Arsenal’s Martin Odegaard is starting to motorCredit: GETTY
    Tottenham vs Bournemouth
    Believe it or not, but Bournemouth are the most in-form side in the Premier League having taken 12 points from a possible 15.
    Andoni Iraola’s side have won six of their last seven matches, scoring 3+ goals on four occasions during that spell.
    Tottenham aren’t doing badly themselves after collecting nine points from their last three against Everton, Nottingham Forest and Newcastle.
    Neither will be backing down in this contest, and that’s clear given three of the last five meetings have produced over 4.5 goals.
    Our Prediction: 2-2 draw

    Richarlison has settled into his role as No.9 at TottenhamCredit: GETTY
    Liverpool vs Newcastle
    Newcastle face a stiff task travelling to Anfield after a series of bad results.
    Eddie Howe’s Magpies look knackered after carrying a huge injury list into a busy fixture schedule. They arrive having lost successive matches to Luton Town and Nottingham Forest, and haven’t beaten Liverpool away since 1994.
    The same cannot be said for Liverpool, who are genuine title contenders having registered 42 points from 19 league games.
    Jurgen Klopp’s side returned to winning ways by beating Burnley 2-0 on Boxing Day, while they’ve only dropped four points at Anfield this campaign.

    Jurgen Klopp tells Amazon Prime’s Dan Walker ‘I understand you have to talk every day’ in awkward live TV interview

    JURGEN KLOPP was involved in an awkward live TV interview with presenter Dan Walker prior to Liverpool’s 2-0 win over Burnley.After several minutes of routine pre-match questions, the Reds boss was asked about the composition of his front three – Mo Salah, Darwin Nunez and Cody Gakpo.

    It is the first time the trio have lined up alongside one another.
    Amazon Prime host Walker enquired about the decision to go with that forward line, while he also pointed out the reliance on Salah so far this season.
    Walker asked: “Can I ask you a little bit about your front three?
    “You’ve had a lot of dependence on Mo Salah with goals and assists, but Nunez and Gakpo playing in a front three.

    “You’ve not actually selected so far this season, have you, those three together up top?”
    To which an irked Klopp responded: “I don’t know. I said it the other day in the press conference, I understand you have to talk every day about football.
    “We are second in the table. We are in a better position than probably everybody expected us to be.
    “And then we start discussing the front three and they are not firing on all cylinders. There are more serious problems out there.”

    Walker then replied: “I’m not trying to catch you out.”
    Before Klopp added: “Oh, fine.”
    Salah has 16 goals in all competitions this season, along with seven assists.
    Diogo Jota is the next most prolific Reds star with eight goals, but Trent Alexander-Arnold is their leading assist maker with eight – while Nunez is level with Salah on seven.
    Klopp’s spiky response came after he took aim at Sky Sports’ Patrick Davison earlier this month, telling him “you over-estimate your importance” when referring to the media.
    Meanwhile, Liverpool beat Burnley thanks to goals from Nunez and Jota.
    The victory returns them to the top of the Premier League table, two points clear of Arsenal ahead of the Gunners’ clash with Brighton on Thursday. More

    Check out our predictions for Matchweek 19 below…
    Luton v Newcastle
    The Hatters most recent outing against Bournemouth was abandoned due to Tom Lockyer’s medical emergency so we can only go off their previous three consecutive defeats in terms of recent form.
    Although that doesn’t quite tell the full story as they had their moments against Arsenal and Manchester City, two difficult opponents.
    However, only Sheffield United and Burnley have conceded more league goals than Luton and same two clubs have a worse attacking record too.
    Eddie Howe remains tested by injury setbacks, not to mention the sudden drop in Kieran Trippier’s form, but only Aston Villa and Man City have scored more league goals in 2023/24.
    However, it’s worth noting that the Magpies have earned just five points away from St James’ Park.
    A 2-1 win for Newcastle is the most-popular prediction among Score Predictor users right now and we’re inclined to agree.
    Our Prediction: 2-1 to Newcastle
    Anthony Gordon’s availability may be a factorCredit: Rex
    Nottingham Forest v Bournemouth
    Two teams at the opposite end of the form table here.
    The Cherries were ranked first among all top-flight clubs for points earned over their last five games prior to their abandoned clash with Luton last weekend.
    Conversely, Forest are rock-bottom of the form table having lost five of their last six, a run that prompted Steve Cooper’s departure from the City Ground.
    Nuno Espirito Santo has taken the reins and there’s always the possibility of a New Manager Bounce but the more tangible stats favour Bournemouth.
    It’s hard to look past the two teams’ contrasting form.
    Our Prediction: 3-1 to Bournemouth

    Tottenham v Everton
    Interestingly, Spurs are the only team to have earned more points on the road than the Toffees this season.
    Sean Dyche’s men have been particularly impressive this month having won all four of their league games without conceding a goal.
    They’ll do very well to extend that record this weekend against a team who commit men forward at every opportunity without fear of being exposed.
    This one has all the makings of a competitive affair and we’re backing Everton to come away with something – though they made need Son Heung-min to have an off-day in front goal.
    Our Prediction: 1-1 draw
    Dyche is doing a fantastic jobCredit: Getty
    Liverpool v Arsenal
    Matchweek 19’s headline fixture is genuine top-of-the-table clash.
    28% of users are backing a 2-2 draw at present but it may be the defensive units that come to the fore.
    Both sides have conceded 15 league goals to date this term. the joint-fewest, but it’s the Gunners that come out on top when digging into the underlying data – they’ve conceded just 12.7 xG.
    Given the Reds’ record at Anfield, Mikel Arteta would probably be content with a draw and the central core of Gabriel, William Saliba and Declan Rice has proven difficult to penetrate.
    That being said, the attacking talent on the pitch makes a goalless stalemate unlikely.
    Our Prediction: 1-1 draw

    Rice has improved Arsenal’s midfield several degrees this seasonCredit: Reuters
    Wolves v Chelsea
    Right now, this is a mid-table clash that doesn’t inspire much excitement among neutrals.
    Hwang Hee-chan and Matheus Cunha offer enough threat on their day but Gary O’Neil’s side have suffered in Pedro Neto’s absence going forward.
    Goals have flowed more freely for the Blues in recent weeks but they remain frustratingly inconsistent across the board.
    Both these sides are in the bottom-half of the form table and festive fatigue sets in then it could be a tough watch on Christmas Eve.
    How about this, Christopher Nkunku scores the winner in an otherwise dull match-up?
