Everton Vs Arsenal

Premier league is on again Mid-week and Arsenal travels to Merseyside to face Everton as they continue their hunt to capture the top league position, Arsenal won their last game at home against Stoke City by 3:1, Arsenal had to come from behind with Theo Walcot’s opener in the 42nd to put the gunners to level of 1:1 at half time before Ozil and Iwobi made it 3 in the second half, Everton on the other side was still struggling as they registered their third loss I five games, Everton was beaten by Watford 3:2 a game I had hoped Everton at least to get a point, they host Arsenal at Goodison park on Tuesday but this Arsenal side has started proving to be unstoppable and if Everton is not keen enough they might to Arsenal again at their own home but I will give them a point having achieved the same against Manu a week ago, Everton 2:2 Arsenal


Bournemouth Vs Leicester City

Bournemouth shined at Liverpool a week ago but suffered over the weekend at Burnley a 3:2 loss having enjoyed the triumph victory3:1 come back to 4:3 against Liverpool, they are at home against Leicester who settled Manchester City over the weekend in just the first 20 minutes of the game with goals from Vardy in 3rd and 2oth minute and king in the 5th minute, Bournemouth might have been lucky to beat Liverpool which happened as a wakeup call to other teams preparing to face them and I think they will fall again facing Leicester City despite them losing to Burnley over the weekend, Bournemouth 0:2 Leicester City


Middlesbrough Vs Liverpool

Liverpool will be in action again with a recent bad record, they have not won in their last two games the latest being a 2:2 draw at Anifield over the week end with Westham, liverpools new number one goal keeper Loris Karius has been in the headlines but mostly for the bad reasons, he partly caused Liverpool lose points at Bournemouth and it has been the same at West ham over the weekend, now they visit Middlesbrough who also lost to Southampton on Sunday and will be hoping to cause Liverpool more problems, I think the liverpool team needs needs to be back in shape again and maybe Mignolet should be handed back his goal keeping role as they wait to Coutinho to return, I don’t see Liverpool losing points for the 3rd time in row, Middlesbrough 1:3 Liverpool


Sunderland Vs Chelsea

Sunderland is the last team on the table and they will be playing Chelsea the first team on the table, with such a difference it appears to be very clear that Chelsea will come here and win but such fixtures have always been hard mostly for the big sides, Sunderland conceded 3 goals against Swansea over weekend and Moyes must be looking to improve his side facing Chelsea on Wednesday, Chelsea on the side will also be looking to extend their margin of lead to more than 3 points hoping that Arsenal will stumble, the blues managed to win by only one goal against westbromwich over the weekend and it was enough for them to keep up the winning trend and Sunderland won’t be a team to stop them neither, I will go for the away win, Sunderland 1:2 Chelsea

Crystal Palace Vs Manchester United

Selhurst Park stadium London will see Allan Pardew’s men battle it out with Manchester United on Wednesday night both teams hoping to get maximum points, Manu played at home over the weekend and managed to overcome Totten ham by just 1:0 from the Armenian international Henrikh Mkhitaryan getting his first premier league goal before he was carried off the pitch after sustaining an injury late in the second half, the hosts Crystal Palace on the other hand struggled to get a point at KCOM stadium to draw 3:3 against Hull city, Crystal Palace had to wait for 89th minute for Campbell to get the equalizer, they are at home on Wednesday against Mourinho side that is in 6th position and 3 points behind Totten ham which makes me think It will be a hard game for Crystal Palace, I will go for the away win Crystal Palace 1:2 Manchester United

Manchester City Vs Watford

Manchester City will be in action again after a horrible weekend at King power stadium where Leicester’s Jamie Vardy got his first hart trick this season, Manchester City was 3 goals down in just 20 minutes with Vardy and King scoring in the first 5 minutes and Vardy scored again his second in the 20th minute and for me the game was over but Vardy was still not yet at peace with Manchester City and he scored his 3rd in 78th minute and whatever Manchester City would get after this would be counted as consolation and yes, Kolarov and Nolito scored in the dying minutes of the game but it could only be counted consolation but they will be playing at home this weekend against Watford that managed a 3:2 win against Everton over the weekend but cannot win again at Etihad stadium, I expect a home convincing win Manchester City 5:1 Watford


Tottenham Hotspur Vs Hull City

Tottenham lost to United over the weekend and that narrowed the gap between Tottenham and Manchester to only 3 points, if Tottenham fails to win again and United wins they will be giving away their 5th position, with such an objective from the Tottenham side together with a home advantage I surely do not see Hull City survive, Tottenham played very well against Manchester United but could not get results which happens to many teams in football but when a fixture like this is next in queue then a coach like Pochettino will always take advantage of the hunger from players having lost their previous game to win, I don’t Hull City getting anything from this, Tottenham Hotspur 4:1 Hull City
