EPL Week 20 Expert Tips & Predictions

2025 begins with Liverpool as very much the team to catch at the top of the Premier League table and the race is on during the second half of the season to catch them. Arsenal and Nottingham Forest look best placed to keep pace with the reds, whilst the likes of Chelsea and Aston Villa continue to falter. Manchester City picked up a win to end 2024 but the same can’t be said for city rivals Manchester United, who look to be in a relegation battle with the likes of Ipswich Town, Leicester City and Southampton.

Here are our Premier League tips for the next round of fixtures this season:

EPL Week 20 Predictions

—

Tottenham vs Newcastle United – Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

Tottenham ($2.90)

Newcastle United ($2.38)

Draw ($3.80)

Tottenham will be seeking impetus into their campaign, as they take on in-form Newcastle United in North London. Spurs cannot seem to string any sort of form together and are languishing in the bottom half of the table under Ange Postecoglou. Newcastle meanwhile are in rampant form, dreaming of finishing inside the top 4 come the end of the season and this feels like a big game for Eddie Howe’s men. This will be a very good game, and goals could be on the agenda in a draw.

Betting tip: The match to finish as a draw ($3.80)

2-2 Draw

Crystal Palace vs Chelsea – Selhurst Park

Crystal Palace ($4.30)

Chelsea ($1.85)

Draw ($4.10)

A London derby of sorts pits Crystal Palace against Chelsea in the south of the capital. Palace haven’t been in great form this season but they remain dangerous, particularly in games such as this at home and they will be ready to rattle into Chelsea. The blues have lost their last two games, to Ipswich Town and Fulham and they are in danger of dropping out of the top 4. This should be an entertaining encounter and whilst Palace will have a go, Chelsea should see them off in this one.

Betting tip: Chelsea to win the match ($1.85)

Chelsea to win 2-1

Aston Villa vs Leicester City – Villa Park

Aston Villa ($1.33)

Leicester City ($10.00)

Draw ($5.80)

Faltering Aston Villa will be looking to get back on track here, against relegation threatened Leicester City. Villa haven’t kicked on following their famous win over Manchester City prior to Christmas and they have work to do in order to crack the top 4 this season. Leicester meanwhile are plugging away under Ruud van Nistelrooy but are in the drop zone as things stands. A trip to Villa Park is never easy and whilst Leicester will be up for this, Villa could get over the line here.

Betting tip: Aston Villa to win the match ($1.33)

Aston Villa to win 3-1

Manchester City vs West Ham United – Etihad Stadium

Manchester City ($1.35)

West Ham United ($9.00)

Draw ($6.00)

Beating Leicester City last time out will be a huge boost for Manchester City, as they look to kick start 2025 against West Ham. Manchester City have endured a rotten run of form lately, dropping massively out of the title race but it feels like baby steps as they look to get their confidence back. West Ham meanwhile are a side in freefall, losing 5-0 to Liverpool last time out and they look to be in the relegation scrap. West Ham will feel they have a chance here though and with City vulnerable, a draw could well be on the cards.

Betting tip: The match to finish as a draw ($6.00)

2-2 Draw

Southampton vs Brentford – St Mary’s Stadium

Southampton ($2.70)

Brentford ($2.60)

Draw ($3.60)

Lowly Southampton will be looking to get 2025 off to the best possible start here, as they take on Brentford. The Saints are struggling under new manager Ivan Juric, and they are beginning to look like a bit of a lost cause already. Meanwhile Brentford are struggling for consistency this term and are in danger of slipping into the bottom half of the table. Both sides could really do with a win, given the contexts of their respective seasons but Brentford could emerge victorious.

Betting tip: Brentford to win the match ($2.60)

Brentford to win 2-1

Bournemouth vs Everton – Vitality Stadium

Bournemouth ($1.80)

Everton ($4.70)

Draw ($3.90)

Everton have been showing serious signs of improvement in the Premier League, but things get tougher here, as they travel to high flying Bournemouth. The Cherries are motoring along very nicely this term and are dreaming of cracking the European picture come the end of the campaign. Everton remain a tough nut to crack but they lost to Nottingham Forest last weekend and will want to respond here. This could be cagey, but Bournemouth could sneak over the line.

Betting tip: Bournemouth to win the match ($1.80)

Bournemouth to win 1-0

Brighton vs Arsenal – AMEX Stadium

Brighton ($4.80)

Arsenal ($1.80)

Draw ($4.00)

Brighton will be looking to test themselves against one of the best outfits in the Premier League, as they host Arsenal. The Seagulls have picked up some superb results this term, especially at home and the atmosphere at the AMEX Stadium should be incredible. Meanwhile, Arsenal are starting to tick along, following a bit of a sticky patch prior to Christmas and they know this is a stern test. Arsenal will have to work hard here but should get the job done.

Betting tip: Arsenal to win the match ($1.80)

Arsenal to win 2-1

Fulham vs Ipswich Town – Craven Cottage

Fulham ($1.50)

Ipswich Town ($7.00)

Draw ($4.70)

In-form Fulham will be eager to keep their good run of form going into 2025, as they take on Ipswich Town. The Cottagers are flying under Marco Silva, and they will want to put in a strong showing for their passionate home fans. Meanwhile, Ipswich Town have been improving steadily of late and their 2-0 win over Chelsea last time out feels significant. This won’t be as easy as the odds suggest but Fulham should manage to get over the line here.

Betting tip: Fulham to win the match ($1.50)

Fulham to win 2-1

Liverpool vs Manchester United – Anfield

Liverpool ($1.30)

Manchester United ($10.00)

Draw ($6.20)

The ultimate heavyweight clash in English football returns, as Liverpool host Manchester United at Anfield. Liverpool have all-but won the Premier League title this season and they simply need to warn against complacency here against United. The Red Devils are a side in serious decline, but Ruben Amorim has been tasked with turning the tide and what a place to start this would be. However, Liverpool are too good for most currently and should win easily here.

Betting tip: Liverpool to win the match ($1.30)

Liverpool to win 4-0

Wolves vs Nottingham Forest – Molyneux

Wolves ($3.10)

Nottingham Forest ($2.40)

Draw ($3.50)

Wolves will be looking to keep their resurgence under Vitor Pereira going, as they take on Nottingham Forest. Wanderers are beginning to climb away from trouble in the Premier League, but every game feels important. Forest meanwhile are flying high in the top 4 of the Premier League but have a big job to do in order to stay there. This will be a good one, with Forest perhaps most likely to continue their incredible form.

Betting tip: Nottingham Forest to win the match ($2.40)

Nottingham Forest to win 2-1
