Arsenal vs Bournemouth: Preview and Expert Football Prediction

Bournemouth will look to do the impossible when they travel to London to face the in-form Premier League leaders Arsenal. The Gunners are a team in good form, having dispatched three Premier League teams in a row. Their latest victim was Everton, who they defeated 4-0 in midweek. That win over the Toffees marked the 12th time they’ve scored 4+ goals against Everton in the PL – a record for one side against another in the competition.  Read more: Borussia Dortmund vs RB Leipzig: Preview and Expert Football Prediction Mikel Arteta’s side will now look to record another big win over a struggling side this weekend when the host Bournemouth. They look primed to do that as they come into this tie on the back of eight consecutive PL victories over newly-promoted sides. And considering they’ve beaten Bournemouth in all five of their PL home H2Hs, by an aggregate score of 14-2, another over 2.5 goals performance here might not surprise. Bournemouth will be desperate for another embarrassing outing, though, having fallen to a 4-1 defeat to Manchester City last weekend. The Cherries have been picked apart by many of the top teams this season, and they have the worst defensive record in the league to show for that, having conceded 48 goals this season. They are now in the thick of the relegation battle and will need to improve their league away returns if they want to survive this season (W2, D2, L8). Only bottom-placed Southampton, having lost more games on the road than Bournemouth, although they did end an eight-match winless PL away run (D2, L6) with a 1-0 victory over Wolves in their last away outing.

Liverpool vs Wolves: Preview and Expert Football Prediction

Liverpool will look to continue their quest for redemption this season when they welcome Wolves to Anfield on Wednesday. The Reds terrible season continued last time with another frustrating result in London, where they were held to a goalless draw against Crystal Palace. The result made it three games without defeat in the PL and was their third clean sheet in a row. Read more: Bristol City vs Manchester City: Preview and Expert Football Prediction Yet, it made their chances of qualifying for the Champions League slim as they are currently a distant nine points off Tottenham in fourth position, having played two games less. They will now play one of those outstanding games at Anfield on Wednesday and will be desperate for a win to keep their hopes of a top-four finish alive. Meanwhile, Wolves are fighting for their lives at the other end of the table. The visitors are sitting in 15th position, three points ahead of 18th-placed Everton.  They come into this game in relatively good shape, having suffered only one defeat in their last four games (W2, D1). Part of those wins was a 3-0 win over Liverpool three weeks ago. So they will now travel to Merseyside with history to make as they seek their first league double over the Reds since 1950/51.  However, Wolves have often been the prey and not the predator at Anfield, as they have lost 18 of their last 20 league visits there (W2).

Arsenal vs Everton: Preview and Expert Football Prediction

It is a revenge mission for Arsenal this Wednesday as they host Everton in the rescheduled seventh-round fixture of the 2022/23 Premier League season. The Gunners suffered a rare defeat to the Merseyside club three weeks ago, falling to a 1-0 loss. That loss began a series of poor results for Mikel Arteta’s side, who went on a three-game winless run in the PL (D1, L2), eventually reducing their lead at the top of the table. But they seem to have bounced back now, with back-to-back wins over Aston Villa and Leicester City most recently. The win over the Foxes gave them their first clean sheet in six league outings and gave them a two-point lead at the top. Read more: Juventus vs Torino: Preview and Expert Football Prediction Having played a game less, this match affords them the opportunity to extend the gap at the top to five points with a win. And given that they have lost just one of the last 26 home PL meetings (W21, D4) and just once at home this PL campaign (W8, D2), they will highly fancy their chances of winning this game. Meanwhile, since defeating Everton in his first game in charge, Sean Dyche has lost twice and one in three PL games. His most recent loss was a 2-0 defeat to Aston Villa, a result that kept them firmly rooted in the relegation zone. They will travel to the Emirates looking to win away from home against a team starting a match at the top of the table for the first time since September 1986 (since D5, L19). However, they might fancy their chances here because they’ve beaten the Gunners in four of the last five H2Hs (L1). Click here to get the correct prediction of this game.

Tottenham vs Chelsea: Preview and Expert Football Prediction

Chelsea will travel to North London this Sunday to face London rivals Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League. Both sides are currently struggling for form and results. But Spurs are at least enjoying better results and are ahead of the Blues by eleven points. Their most recent 2-0 over West Ham, plus Newcastle United’s loss to Liverpool, moved them into fourth position in the table. With the Magpies not in PL action this weekend, they will be desperate to open up a four-point gap to the rest of the top four contestants. Read more: Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid: Preview and Expert Football Prediction However, this fixture always proves too difficult for them, with just seven wins out of 61 H2Hs in the PL era (D21, L33).  Only Manchester United (39) have beaten them more times in the league. Chelsea have won nine of the last 12 H2Hs in all competitions between both sides (D2, L1). Yet the Blues are struggling and have won once in their last eight PL outings (D4, L3). They have struggled to score goals, with their last ten games in all competitions seeing them score just four times.  But they have scored an average of two goals per game from their last three PL visits to Tottenham (W3), a record that may provide inspiration to end an ongoing seven-match winless run on the road in the Premier League.

Crystal Palace vs Liverpool: Preview and Expert Football Prediction 

Liverpool will travel to Selhurst Park this Saturday to face Patrick Vieira’s Crystal Palace side. The hosts have struggled in 2023, taking just four points from the 24 points available. Their last outing was a 1-1 draw, with Brentford making it eight successive games without a victory for the Eagles (D4, L4). Vieira’s side are also the only winless Premier League club in all competitions this year, so come into this tie sitting just six points above the bottom three. But they will be desperate to win here after recording three successive home draws against top-half opposition.  Read more: Bournemouth vs Manchester City: Preview and Expert Football Prediction Liverpool will be hurting here after losing 5-2 to Real Madrid in the Champions League. The result marked the first time the Reds have conceded five goals at Anfield in the competition reigniting the frustration that’s been apparent all season long. They did win their last two Premier League games against Everton and Newcastle United, keeping clean sheets in both games. Both wins have brought them closer to the top four, where they want to finish this season.  They are currently seven points off Tottenham in fourth place with two games in hand and will be hoping for yet another fruitful visit to Selhurst Park, having won all seven of their last visits here and amassing 22 goals in the process. That said, we can expect a high-scoring affair here, given that there has been over 2.5 goals scored in six of the last nine games between both teams.

Bournemouth vs Manchester City: Preview and Expert Football Prediction 

Manchester City will travel to Vitality Stadium this Saturday to face Bournemouth in the 25th Round of the 2022/23 Premier League season.  The hosts come into this tie on the back of a gritty 1-0 win over Wolves last time, breathing life into their fight for survival. That result ended a seven-match winless Premier League run (D2, L5). Still, Cherries manager Gary O’Neil is unlikely to care, with Bournemouth dangling only one point above the drop zone ahead of the round. They will likely drop back to the relegation zone here, given their record against City, as they are winless against City in 17 league meetings (D2, L15) – which coincidentally is the most times one team has met another without winning in English football history. Read more: Crystal Palace vs Liverpool: Preview and Expert Football Prediction  Meanwhile, City will be desperate to get back to winning after dropping points in their last two games against Nottingham Forest and RB Leipzig in the Champions League. Both games saw them score first in the first half but conceded late second-half goals.  Still, they have been given a 52.5% chance by Opta Analyst to win the league ahead of their chase of a 200th PL away victory despite sitting two points behind Arsenal ahead of this game.  Given their record in this game, we can expect another high-scoring affair with over 2.5 goals scored.

Leicester City vs Arsenal: Preview and Expert Football Prediction 

Arsenal will continue their quest for the Premier League title this Saturday when they travel to King Power Stadium to face Leicester City.  The Foxes come into this tie after a disappointing 3-0 loss to Manchester United. The loss ended a four-game unbeaten run for the hosts (W3, D1) and saw them fail to score for the fourth time in the last ten games. They will be desperate to return to winning easily here, yet have a terrible record against the Gunners, having lost their last four games against Mikel Arteta’s side. However, the Premier League leaders returned to the top of the league table after coming from a goal down to record a 4-2 win over Aston Villa. Read more: Empoli vs Napoli: Preview and Expert Football Prediction The win ended a run of four games without a win (D1, L3) for the North Londoners and restored some belief that they can indeed go the length to win the title. Having scored more than one goal in seven of their last nine away victories in the league, we shouldn’t expect Arsenal to take their foot off the gas here. Therefore, the correct prediction for this game will be over 2.5 goals and BTTS/GG.

Fulham vs Wolves: Preview and Expert Football Prediction

Fulham will welcome Wolves to Craven Cottage this Friday in the first fixture of this weekend’s Premier League action. Fulham come into this tie in good form, having won their last three games in all competitions. Their last outing was a 1-0 win over Brighton in the Premier League, placing them just four points behind Tottenham in fourth position. That result also left them with at least ten more points than they accrued in their last two Premier League campaigns. So they will feel confident about continuing that good form here, especially as only Manchester United have won more PL games than Fulham’s six since the restart (W6, D1, L2).  Read more: Manchester United vs Barcelona: Preview and Expert Football Prediction Three clean sheets in their last three PL games will also give them the belief that they can defeat this Wolves side struggling to score goals. The visitors are the joint-lowest scorers in the league this season, with only 17 goals scored in 23 games. They failed to score in their last game against Bournemouth, the side with the league’s worst defence. But they aren’t a bad side under  Julen Lopetegui, who has led them to four wins in eight PL games (D1, L3). Wolves also have a good record against Fulham as they are unbeaten in five head-to-heads against the hosts (W3, D2). Therefore, considering the hosts’ defensive solidity and the visitors’ struggles in front of the goal, we can expect a low-scoring affair with under 2.5 goals.

Tottenham vs West Ham: Preview and Expert Football Prediction

After recording a narrow loss to AC Milan in the Champions League, Tottenham will turn their attention to their quest for a top-four finish in the Premier League as they host West Ham this Sunday. Antonio Conte’s men come into this tie on the back of a 1-0 loss to AC Milan in the UCL. The loss made it two consecutive losses for the North London side following a 4-1 loss to Leicester City in the Premier League last weekend. Read more: PSG vs Lille: Preview and Expert Football Prediction  Yet, they come into this tie sitting just two points outside the top four and could climb into the top four if they win this game and fourth-placed Newcastle lose to Liverpool. West Ham made it four games without defeat (W2, D2) last weekend as they held Chelsea to a 1-1 draw, coming from one goal down to draw the game thanks to a goal by former Chelsea player Emerson. Yet they remain close to relegation, with just two points separating them from the 18th-placed team. They will like to put some daylight between them and the drop zone with a win here. Having lost just one of their last four PL games against Spurs (W2, D1), they will fancy their chances of getting a win here.  Click here for Football Prediction for today.
