Arsenal v Crystal Palace
First up is a capital clash between London rivals Arsenal and Crystal Palace at the Emirates. One of the teams is yet to win in 2018 (D2 L2), while the other has collected maximum points from their brace of league games. It may come as a surprise that the latter is Palace who will head north of the Thames with high hopes of bagging a result. And we’re backing Roy Hodgson’s in-form Eagles to do exactly that against a depleted Arsenal team void of form, confidence and star man Alexis Sanchez.
PICK: Arsenal 2-2 Crystal Palace
Burnley v Man Utd
It looks like the Burnley bubble has burst, with the Clarets winless in seven games, while they’ve lost their last three on the trot. Few will give Sean Dyche’s men a chance against Man Utd, who are enjoying a three-game winning run. The Red Devils have won nine of the last 13 duels between the teams and we’re backing Jose Mourinho’s troops to return home with the spoils this weekend.
PICK: Burnley 0-2 Man Utd
Everton v West Brom
There’s no two ways about it Everton are a team in poor form. The Toffees have forgotten what it’s like to win (seven games), with last weekend’s defeat at Tottenham their fourth successive loss. Ouch. Meanwhile, West Brom got their first win under Alan Pardew, then backed it up with another a week later. But, while the Baggies may be boing boing back, Big Sam relishes these sort of gritty games, and with Theo Walcott now on board, the hosts could well end their rotten run.
PICK: Everton 2-1 West Brom
Leicester v Watford
Leicester are unbeaten in four games in 2018, and they will be bidding to extend this streak to five when they lock horns with troubled Watford. Hornets fans were left fuming 45 minutes into their clash at home to Southampton last weekend, but a spirited second-half showing saw them grab a point. Marco Silva’s men may have triumphed over the Foxes on Boxing Day, but given their woeful away form, six defeats in seven, few will back them at the King Power.
PICK: Leicester 3-1 Watford
Stoke v Huddersfield
Paul Lambert ventures into the Stoke City dugout for the first time since his surprise appointment earlier in the week. The Scot may not have been the club’s first, second, or even third choice for the job, but the Potters will hope that his presence produces a new manager bounce at home to a Huddersfield side who have lost seven of their last 10 Premier League away games.
PICK: Stoke 1-0 Huddersfield
West Ham v Bournemouth
West Ham have turned a leaf since Christmas, having conjured up a six match unbeaten run under David Moyes, who is swatting away the critics in style. In the club’s last league outing they hammered Huddersfield 4-1 in Yorkshire, and while Bournemouth themselves are unbeaten in four league games, their confidence may be shattered from a 3-0 cup humbling at the hands of League One Wigan,
PICK: West Ham 2-1 Bournemouth
