Liverpool ended their 30-year wait for a Premier League title in midweek, following Manchester City’s loss to Chelsea and the reds are sure to have their sights set on a record-breaking season. Whilst City look to have a place in the top 4 sewn up, the race is on for Leicester, Chelsea, Manchester United, and Wolves – who are all pursuing Champions League football next season. At the bottom of the table, the likes of Watford, Brighton, Aston Villa and Bournemouth all look to be slipping towards the Championship – along with Norwich City who look too far adrift.
Here are our picks for the next round of fixtures in the Premier League:
Norwich City vs Brighton
Brighton – 1.30
Draw – 2.28
Match Prediction
Norwich have struggled for rhythm and form all season – particularly since the season restart and although Brighton were well beaten by Manchester United last time out, they should have too much for the Canaries here.
Score Prediction – Norwich City 0 – 2 Brighton @ 10.42
Betxchange Best Bet – Brighton to win the match – 1.30
Leicester City vs Crystal Palace
Crystal Palace – 4.76
Draw – 2.73
Match Prediction
Leicester need to keep picking up points in pursuit of a top 4 finish and have yet to win since the season restart whilst Palace have lost their last 2 fixtures. This could be tighter than people anticipate but Leicester should prevail here.
Score Prediction – Leicester City 2 – 1 Crystal Palace @ 8.45
Betxchange Best Bet – Both teams to score – YES – 1.11
Manchester United vs Bournemouth
Bournemouth – 12.66
Draw – 5.17
Match Prediction
Manchester United are unbeaten since the season resumption and look in great form and although Bournemouth are scrapping for their lives, this should be a comfortable home win for the Red Devils.
Score Prediction – Manchester United 3 – 0 Bournemouth @ 5.98
Betxchange Best Bet – Manchester United to be winning at half time and full time – 0.65
Wolves vs Arsenal
Arsenal – 2.43
Draw – 2.36
Match Prediction

Betxchange Best Bet – Both teams to score – YES – 0.83
Chelsea vs Watford
Watford – 6.00
Draw – 3.42

Betxchange Best Bet – First Goal Scorer: Willian – 5.15
Burnley vs Sheffield United
Sheffield United – 1.77
Draw – 1.97

Betxchange Best Bet – The match for finish as a draw – 1.97
Newcastle United vs West Ham United
West Ham United – 1.84

Liverpool vs Aston Villa
Aston Villa – 6.73

Betxchange Best Bet – Both teams to score – NO – 0.97
Southampton vs Manchester City
Manchester City – 0.35
Draw – 4.19

Betxchange Best Bet – Both teams to score – YES – 0.89
Tottenham vs Everton
Everton – 2.49
Draw – 2.52
