The English Premier League proceeded to round 9 last weekend, but not without its drama. Thirty-two goals were scored across ten fixtures with no recorded draw outcome.
The leaders, Arsenal, picked up crucial points against Crystal Palace, which put them four points cushion at the summit of the standings. Top contenders such as Man City and Liverpool lost their respective matches and will be gearing up to bounce back this week. The following are our Premier League predictions across ten EPL games for match day 10.
Brighton & Hove Albion vs Leeds United Predictions
Our first Premier League predictions start with newly promoted Leeds visiting Brighton at the Amex Stadium. The host suffered a 4-2 loss against the rejuvenated Man United last weekend. Their journey in the Carabao Cup also came to an end in the midweek when Arsenal handed them a 2-0 defeat. Hurzeler’s boys will intend to bounce back on Saturday. Their last league loss at the Annex dated back to April and remained unbeaten on their turf this season.
Brighton’s home unbeaten run includes two recent victories against Man City and Newcastle. This will give them confidence against a Leeds side who have earned just one victory in its previous four matches. They haven’t defeated Brighton in any Premier League matches. Therefore, we expect the host to claim all points.
Burnley vs Arsenal Predictions
Arsenal’s trip to Turf Moor is our next Premier League prediction. The Gunners have been on an excellent run of form, which has put them on an eight-game winning streak across all competitions. A vital contribution to that form is their defensive resilience, which has prevented them from conceding a goal in their last six matches.
We expect Arsenal’s sheer power to overwhelm newly promoted Burnley, who have won just two of their last eight matches. Notably, they haven’t defeated the Gunners since December 2020. Therefore, Arsenal are poised to extend their win run and solidify their position at the league summit.
Crystal Palace vs Brentford Predictions
We expect an end-to-end game at Selhurst Park as both teams are brimming with confidence. The early-season form that saw many rate Crystal Palace at some point has suffered a blow recently. They remain winless in their last three league matches. Glasner’s side lost to Arsenal and Everton during the period and drew Bournemouth.
However, a 3-0 victory over Liverpool in the Carabao Cup offers a glimmer of hope of bouncing back. Brentford, on the other side, has won three of its last four league matches. Victory over Liverpool last weekend signals a return to great form for the Bees under the new manager.
They won both league fixtures against Palace last season, but it could be more difficult to get an away victory here. We expect a hard-fought draw to play out here, with a high chance of both teams scoring.
Fulham vs Wolverhampton Wanderers Predictions
This is a perfect match for Fulham to get back to winning ways after four straight league wins. Home advantage against a struggling Wolves team with zero wins and seven losses so far should give the host confidence to triumph. Meanwhile, Wolves manager Vítor Pereira could lose his job if he suffers another defeat at Craven Cottage. If Fulham handles the pressure effectively, they are on course to claim all points in this match.
Nottingham Forest vs Manchester United Predictions
Both teams had a poor start to their season, but the Red Devils have recently begun to gain momentum. Seun Dyche’s regime at Nottingham began with a victory against Porto in the Europa League but suffered a 2-0 defeat at Bournemouth last weekend. He will be hoping for his first Premier League victory when he hosts the Amorim team.
Nottingham could be inspired by winning both fixtures against United last season, but a lot has changed since then. Man United have won four of their previous five league fixtures and will be all out for this important victory.
Liverpool vs Aston Villa Predictions
The reigning champions have been going through a rough patch recently and will be hoping to regain some momentum. A defeat against Crystal Palace in midweek marked Liverpool’s 6th loss in their previous seven games across all competitions.
In contrast, Aston Villa are currently on a four-match win run and will be seeking their first victory at Anfield since 2014. The Reds look more like a team without rhythm, and we expect Aston Villa to get at least a draw in this match.
Tottenham Hotspur vs Chelsea Predictions
This London derby offers a compelling tactical battle between evolving teams. Tottenham holds a stronger league position and impressive attacking numbers this season. Chelsea have improved recently and traditionally perform well in this fixture. Spurs’ inconsistent home form and recent loss to Newcastle raise concerns. Chelsea will feel optimistic about earning a positive result in this matchup.
We predict a draw because both teams lack consistent finishing quality. Neither side has shown enough reliability to secure three points confidently. Both teams possess attacking talent capable of creating dangerous scoring moments. A match with goals expected should deliver excitement for neutral viewers. Given form swings and derby unpredictability, a balanced result feels most realistic.
West Ham United vs Newcastle United Predictions
Newcastle enters this clash in stronger form with a clear tactical structure. They also hold a psychological edge, thanks to past success over West Ham, having won two of their three away matches against West Ham. The Hammers’ poor home run and shaky defence raise major concerns. Their lack of confidence suggests real difficulty stopping Newcastle’s growing momentum.
Recent performances in competitions have shown a clear gap between the two sides. Newcastle have dominated recent meetings, reinforcing expectations of an away win. Both teams carry attacking threats capable of producing goals in this fixture. However, Newcastle’s overall balance and intensity should prove decisive here. We expect them to secure three points and continue climbing the table.
Manchester City vs Bournemouth Predictions
We expect Manchester City to win based on several key factors. Their strong home record and past dominance over Bournemouth provide confidence. Guardiola’s tactical adjustments should help correct recent inconsistent displays. Bournemouth sit high in the table but remain modest on the road.
City’s urgent need for points at home strengthens their winning prospects. Both teams possess attacking quality, making goals likely at both ends—City’s occasional defensive lapses support the value in the scoring market.
Sunderland vs Everton Predictions
Sunderland could hardly have asked for a stronger Premier League return. They sit fourth in the table with 17 points at this stage. That total is only eight points fewer than Leicester’s entire last season. Their 2-1 win at Chelsea showed they can challenge elite teams. Regis Le Bris has built an organised side capable of consistent high-level performances.
Everton, meanwhile, continues to struggle and remains wary of the drop zone. Sunderland boasts a 56% win rate, while Everton has a 33% win rate. The Black Cats have shown real resilience, dropping no points from winning positions.
Their structure and home form give them confidence against Everton’s attacking threats. Everton still carries danger, especially through Iliman Ndiaye’s sharp play in attack. However, Sunderland appear better balanced and should be favourites for three points.
