With Liverpool and Chelsea off battling it out for the Carabao Cup, the remaining sides in the top 4 push will all be looking to close the gap on Jurgen Klopp’s leaders. Aston Villa got back to winning ways last weekend, and they will want revenge against a Nottingham Forest side that comfortably beat them earlier in the campaign. Elsewhere, Manchester City know they will need to be at their best against Bournemouth, whilst Arsenal host Newcastle United, in what should be an absolute cracker.
Aston Villa vs Nottingham Forest – Aston Villa to win & BTTS.
19/10 at Rhino Bet
Aston Villa have been one of the stories of the Premier League season with many EPL betting sites and they remain in the top 4, with their fate very much in their own hands. A gritty win at Fulham last time out has improved the mood within the camp and they will be raring to go in front of their home fans here against Nottingham Forest. For the Tricky Trees, this is a tough assignment, as they continue their relegation battle, but they can take heart from having beaten Villa earlier in the campaign. This should be a good watch, with Villa likely to come out on top.
Bournemouth vs Manchester City – Manchester City to win & BTTS.
7/4 at Betzone
An arduous week at Manchester City these days is a tight home win and a draw but that is the standard the blues have set themselves under Pep Guardiola. The blues travel to Bournemouth next, knowing full well that slipups simply cannot be afforded, if they are to have any chance of clawing back Liverpool in an ever-growing Premier League title race. Bournemouth meanwhile have impressed this season but their results of late have dried up a touch and they will want to put in a performance here. This will be tight, with the odd goal likely to decide it and City have plenty of attacking firepower that could help them over the line.
Arsenal vs Newcastle United – Arsenal to win to nil.
13/8 at Fitzdares
Despite suffering a late defeat in the Champions League in midweek, Arsenal have been firing on all cylinders of late in the Premier League and they will be looking to continue their good form, as they take on Newcastle United. The Gunners are firmly in the title race and their Premier League home form has been excellent this season. Newcastle meanwhile are ticking along under Eddie Howe but they haven’t hit the heights of last season and they have been decimated by injuries in attacking areas, making Arsenal very likely to keep a clean sheet in winning here.
