Player to score – Jean-Philippe Mateta (Fulham v Crystal Palace)
Crystal Palace have turned a corner under Oliver Glasner with the Eagles now on a winning run of three straight matches. That run has included impressive victories over Liverpool, West Ham and Newcastle with Jean-Philippe Mateta a big part of Palace’s dramatic improvement.
Indeed, the striker has scored four goals in his last two games and will fancy his chances of extending his run in front of goal against Fulham this weekend. The Cottagers have lost their last two home matches, suggesting Palace will stand a good chance of leaving Craven Cottage with three points.
Over 2.5 total goals – Aston Villa v Chelsea
Aston Villa can take another step towards a top four finish and Champions League qualification against Chelsea on Saturday with Mauricio Pochettino’s team making the trip north on the back of Tuesday’s damaging 5-0 defeat to Arsenal. The Blues will have to lift their performance level to avoid another loss.
There have been over 2.5 goals in Chelsea’s last seven league games while there has been over 2.5 goals in six of the last seven meetings between Aston Villa and the Blues at Villa Park in all competitions. There would appear to be a very good chance that this weekend’s fixture will produce goals.
Match to be a draw – West Ham v Liverpool
It will take a remarkable turnaround for Liverpool to win the Premier League title from this position with Jurgen Klopp’s team now three points behind table-toppers Manchester City with just four games left to play. The Reds are on a dreadful run of form which has seen them win just one of their last four fixtures.
West Ham aren’t faring any better having won just one of their last seven league games. However, there is still good value in backing the Hammers to take something from Sunday’s match given Liverpool’s poor form. West Ham have players with the talent to hurt the visitors to the London Stadium.
Both teams to score – Atletico Madrid v Athletic Club
Atletico Madrid and Athletic Club will meet on Saturday in a match that could go a long way to determining how the top four finishes in La Liga this season. Three points is all that separates the two teams with just six fixtures left to play. What’s more, both sides have taken nine points from their last six games. There’s very little between them.
Diego Simeone’s side have lost just once at home all season while Athletic Club boast one of the most dangerous attacks in the Spanish top flight. Athletic have won their last three games against Atleti, but the likes of Antoine Griezmann and Alvaro Morata can’t be discounted as attacking threats for the hosts.

Graham’s Bet Builder | Tottenham vs. Arsenal
Tottenham Hotspur host Arsenal in the North London Derby this Sunday with plenty on the line for both teams. For Spurs, three points are required to keep their hopes of finishing in the top four alive while the Gunners are in the midst of a title race and need to stay within touching distance of Manchester City.
Spurs are unbeaten in eight of their last nine home matches against Arsenal while both teams have also scored in each of their last 12 home games. There have been over 2.5 goals in 14 of Tottenham’s last 15 league games, pointing to Sunday’s encounter being a memorable match that swings back and forth.
