The English Premier League returns this weekend following the two-week international break and with just 10 games left of the season every game is becoming crucially important to achieving each side’s objectives.
This weekend hosts some huge games that could have big effects on the outcomes of the title race, the battle for European football and the fight to stay in the league. With this, drama and action is sure to happen, so we’ve picked out our top tips and booking codes for the upcoming fixtures:
Brentford vs Manchester United
These two sides come into this game on opposing ends of the table, with Brentford just five points above the relegation zone and Manchester United in sixth place and six points behind Tottenham in fifth.
Man United have been enjoying one of their best runs of the season in recent weeks, picking up seven wins out of their last nine games across all competitions, including a fantastic 4-3 win over Liverpool in the FA Cup.
Brentford, on the other hand, are now on a six-game winless streak, and they’ll be looking to turn this around if they wish to pull away from the ongoing relegation battle.
While Brentford will attempt to make the game difficult, with them also being the home side, we expect Manchester United to continue their positive form by winning this one.
Manchester United to win, 2.18
Liverpool vs Brighton
Mohamed Salah has been brilliant since returning from his AFCON involvement and his subsequent injuries. The Egyptian has made five appearances, scoring three goals and assisting a further four.
While Brighton are in a strange run of form that saw them lose three on the bounce before then winning two back-to-back games, Liverpool are in much superior form having lost just one of their last 10.
With this game providing Liverpool with a chance to take advantage of Manchester City and Arsenal facing each other, we expect Liverpool to dominate this game, and when Liverpool dominate Salah is always on the scoresheet, and we expect this to happen in this one.
Mohamed Salah to score anytime, 1.85
Manchester City vs Arsenal
Manchester City vs Arsenal is undoubtedly the highlight of this weekend’s Premier League football, pitting together first and third in a clash that could have huge effects on the outcome of this year’s title winners.
Despite sitting third in the table, albeit just one point behind the top two, Manchester City are still strong favourites to go on and win the title, and this provides the perfect opportunity for them to get their title push underway.
City haven’t lost to Arsenal at the Etihad Stadium since a 2-0 defeat to the Gunners in January 2015, with City going on to win nine of the ten encounters since then. While this season’s Arsenal side are a much improved side compared to the last few seasons, we still expect City to make the most of their home advantage as well as their experience in title races and go on to win this one.
Manchester City to win & over 2.5 goals, 2.75
