The cut and thrust of the Premier League is very much back and for many of the leading lights, it was business as usual.
Manchester City confirmed their status as the side to beat, with the Champions winning well at Burnley, whilst Arsenal and Manchester United picked up gritty home wins to get their campaigns under way.
Tottenham, Chelsea, and Liverpool all drew their opening fixtures as they look to break the top 4, whilst Newcastle caught the eye with a home thumping of Aston Villa.
With plenty of sides impressing throughout the table, it promises to be yet another weekend of high octane Premier League action.

EPL Week 2 Predictions
—
Nottingham Forest vs Sheffield United – City Ground
Nottingham Forest ($1.90)
Sheffield United ($4.90)
Draw ($3.60)
Two sides expected to be battling it out at the bottom of the Premier League table face off as Nottingham Forest take on Sheffield United. Forest dug deep against Arsenal last weekend without too much to show for it but playing at home is their forte. Sheffield United meanwhile were edged out by Crystal Palace in somewhat of a learning curve for the Blades and they will be eager to bounce back here. This will be a tight one, but home advantage could prove telling for Nottingham Forest.

Wolves ($4)
Brighton ($1.95)
Draw ($3.81)
Following a controversial loss at Manchester United last time out, Wolves will want to bounce back against Brighton. VAR was not on Wolves’ side at Old Trafford, and they have been left reeling as a result, meaning they should be bang up for this one. Brighton meanwhile are an impressive force, thrashing Luton last weekend, as they begin to build for a Premier League and Europa League push. This should be a good one, with a draw perhaps on the cards.

Liverpool ($1.24)
Bournemouth ($13)
Draw ($7)
Liverpool will be chasing their first win of the Premier League season, as they take on Bournemouth. A summer of change at Anfield is taking a little bit of time to settle but they looked dangerous against Chelsea last weekend. Bournemouth meanwhile also picked up a draw in their opener, at home to West Ham and they will be eager to play with some freedom here. This should be a comfortable home win for Jurgen Klopp’s side though.
Betting tip: Liverpool to win the match ($1.24)
Liverpool to win 3-0

Fulham ($2.85)
Brentford ($2.66)
Draw ($4)
A West London derby is next on the agenda, as Fulham take on Brentford. The Cottagers are a side looking to build upon last year’s superb showing and their win at Everton was gritty. Brentford meanwhile remain without Ivan Toney but still troubled Tottenham for long periods last weekend. This should be a turbo-charged encounter, between two sides who don’t particularly like each other, and a score draw could be the outcome on the Thames.

Tottenham ($2.95)
Manchester United ($2.40)
Draw ($3.8)
Two teams looking to challenge for honours this term face off as Tottenham host Manchester United. Spurs have had a serious summer rebuild, with Harry Kane’s departure rocking the club to the core and they will want to appease some of fears of the fans here. Manchester United meanwhile looked nervous and edgy against Wolves but still got the job done, suggesting they have a new found steel this term. There is very little to split these two sides, making the draw the most likely result.

Manchester City ($1.71)
Newcastle United ($5.1)
Draw ($4.10)
UEFA Super Cup winners Manchester City return from their Athens triumph to a tough game in Newcastle United. City have been the dominant force in the Premier League in recent years, but they take on arguably one of the biggest contenders to their throne. Newcastle United have spent big once more in the summer and now look to have a squad capable of challenging for a league title this term. This should be a good one and the exploits of the midweek could take it out of City, meaning another draw could be on the cards.

Aston Villa ($1.71)
Everton ($5.25)
Draw ($4)
Two teams that need to bounce back from opening day defeats do battle, as Aston Villa host Everton. Villa were thumped by Newcastle at St James’s Park, but they have a good side and Unai Emery will be seeking a response in this one. Everton meanwhile will be prioritising survival again this term under Sean Dyche and they need to start the season strongly if they are to avoid a relegation scrap. Everton won’t make this easy, but Villa are a tough nut to crack at home.
Betting tip: Aston Villa to win the match ($1.71)
Aston Villa to win 2-0

West Ham United ($4.10)
Chelsea ($2)
Draw ($3.75)
A London derby headlines the card on Sunday as West Ham host Chelsea. David Moyes remains at the helm for the Europa Conference League winners, and they will be eager to keep progressing this term in both the Premier League and Europe. Chelsea meanwhile continue to throw the cheque book at their project, with Moises Caicedo’s arrival breaking the British transfer record once more and they now need to start winning games. This should be a tasty one, with Chelsea perhaps most likely to pick up the points.
Betting tip: Chelsea to win the match ($2)
Chelsea to win 2-1

Crystal Palace ($6.75)
Arsenal ($1.58)
Draw ($4.20)
Monday Night Football sees Arsenal travel across London to take on Crystal Palace. The Eagles won well against Sheffield United in their season opener last weekend and Roy Hodgson will be challenging his side to take the game to Arsenal in this one. The Gunners hung on to beat Nottingham Forest last weekend and they will want to keep the results ticking through the Autumn and challenge again for the title. This won’t be as one-sided as the odds suggest but Arsenal should prevail here.
Betting tip: Arsenal to win the match ($1.58)
Arsenal to win 3-1
