It is a chaotic time in the Premier League, with cup fixtures to manage too and teams will be looking to just keep getting the job done this weekend. Liverpool continue to set the pace, and the reds know that they can cruise through the second half of the campaign and still pick up their 2nd Premier League title in 35 years. Elsewhere, Nottingham Forest continue to be the story of the campaign, sat pretty inside the top 4, whilst Chelsea and Arsenal will be looking to rekindle their form of 2024. Down the bottom of the table, Southampton look to be all-but relegated, whilst Wolves, Leicester City and Ipswich Town are in a real dog fight too.
Here are our Premier League tips for the next round of fixtures this season:

EPL Week 22 Predictions
—
Newcastle United vs Bournemouth – St James’s Park
Newcastle United ($1.67)
Bournemouth ($5.00)
Draw ($4.40)
Eddie Howe welcomes his former side Bournemouth to Newcastle, with Toon hoping that they can kick on in 2025 and push for at least a Champions League place. Both teams have enjoyed excellent first halves of the season, and this should be a good one. Newcastle have been particularly strong at home, and they will be hopeful of picking up another three points, whilst Bournemouth have secured some very good results against the biggest sides in the league. This will be super tight, but home advantage could prove to be enough to get Newcastle over the line.
Betting tip: Newcastle United to win the match ($1.67)
Newcastle United to win 2-1
West Ham United vs Crystal Palace – London Olympic Stadium
West Ham United ($2.60)
Crystal Palace ($2.85)
Draw ($3.50)
West Ham and Crystal Palace meet at the London Olympic Stadium, with the Graham Potter getting under way for the Hammers. It has been a first half of the campaign to forget for West Ham and whilst they have some quality players in their ranks, they are languishing at the bottom half of the table. Meanwhile, Crystal Palace are plugging away under Oliver Glasner, and they look to be getting some key players back from injury. This should be a good one, but West Ham could get over the line under their new manager.
Betting tip: West Ham United to win the match ($2.60)
West Ham United to win 2-1
Leicester City vs Fulham – King Power Stadium
Leicester City ($3.80)
Fulham ($1.95)
Draw ($3.85)
Ruud van Nistelrooy has been struggling at the helm for Leicester City and this is a chance to get back on track against Fulham. The Foxes are in the relegation battle but should take heart from a thumping FA Cup win over QPR last weekend. Fulham meanwhile are motoring along under Marco Silva, and they look to have a top half finish firmly within their grasp this term. Leicester should have a good go here, but Fulham are good on the road and could pick up an important win.
Betting tip: Fulham to win the match ($1.95)
Fulham to win 2-1
Brentford vs Liverpool – Gtech Community Stadium
Brentford ($6.40)
Liverpool ($1.50)
Draw ($5.10)
Leaders Liverpool have endured a tough week of Premier League away days and things shouldn’t get too much easier here at Brentford. The Bees are in danger of losing their way a touch this season but Thomas Frank has an excellent squad at his disposal, and they have been going along very nicely indeed at home. Liverpool are the pace setters in the Premier League this term and they will be looking to eliminate any sort of challengers over the coming weeks, and they should manage to win on the road in West London here.
Betting tip: Liverpool to win the match ($1.50)
Liverpool to win 3-1
Arsenal vs Aston Villa – Emirates Stadium
Arsenal ($1.50)
Aston Villa ($7.50)
Draw ($4.60)
Arsenal and Aston Villa meet at the Emirates Stadium, in a repeat of the fixture that arguably cost the Gunners the title last season. It has been a tough couple of weeks for Arsenal and Mikel Arteta and he will be hoping that his side can rekindle some form and push on in the Premier League title race. Unai Emery returns to his former place of employment with an Aston Villa side who are full of confidence but who know they will be in for a game here. Arsenal need a win, and they should register one at home here.
Betting tip: Arsenal to win the match ($1.50)
Arsenal to win 2-1
Nottingham Forest vs Southampton – City Ground
Nottingham Forest ($1.45)
Southampton ($8.50)
Draw ($4.80)
High-flying Nottingham Forest will continue to push on with their top 4 bid, as they take on Southampton at the City Ground. Forest have been surprising plenty of sides this term, with not only their ability to get results but also their impressive style of play. Southampton arrive in the East Midlands chasing a result and the Saints feel as if they are doomed in the Premier League this term, unless they can start turning the tide. Confidence should be high at Forest, and they should come out on top in this one.
Betting tip: Nottingham Forest to win the match ($1.45)
Nottingham Forest to win 3-0
Manchester United vs Brighton – Old Trafford
Manchester United ($2.10)
Brighton ($3.50)
Draw ($3.85)
Following famous draws against Liverpool and Arsenal, Manchester United will be eager to keep their resurgence going here against Brighton. Ruben Amorim is slowly turning the tide at United, and they are beginning to look a side that are very hard to beat. Brighton meanwhile are in a bit of a funk in the Premier League, but they are sitting comfortably inside the top half, and they will believe that they can kick on during the second half of the campaign. This will be very tight but United could get over the line at home.
Betting tip: Manchester United to win the match ($2.10)
Manchester United to win 2-1
Everton vs Tottenham – Goodison Park
Everton ($2.80)
Tottenham ($2.50)
Draw ($3.70)
One of the toughest games to call of the weekend is Everton vs Tottenham, with both sides seemingly all over the place currently. Everton are plugging away and have installed David Moyes in the hot seat, with the Scot sure to enjoy a triumphant return to the blue side of Merseyside. Tottenham meanwhile are languishing down in the bottom half of the table, and they are in search of any crumb of consistency. This could be chaotic, and all three results are in play, but a draw could be the value bet.
Betting tip: The match to finish as a draw ($3.70)
1-1 Draw
Ipswich Town vs Manchester City – Portman Road
Ipswich Town ($10.00)
Manchester City ($1.33)
Draw ($6.00)
This should have a real cup-tie feel to it at Portman Road, as Ipswich Town take on Manchester City in Suffolk. The Tractor Boys are starting to come to terms with the requirements of Premier League football and they have picked up some decent results in recent weeks. Manchester City meanwhile are finding their feet again after a disastrous end to 2024 and they will be hoping to keep bouncing back in 2025. This will be a close one and both sides may end up settling for a draw at Portman Road.
Betting tip: The match to finish as a draw ($6.00)
2-2 Draw
Chelsea vs Wolves – Stamford Bridge
Chelsea ($1.33)
Wolves ($9.50)
Draw ($6.00)
Enzo Maresca will be hoping his Chelsea side can find form again, as they take on Wolves at Stamford Bridge. The blues haven’t been at their best in recent weeks, but they have some quality players in their ranks, and they are in the race for a top 4 spot. Wolves meanwhile have perked up under new manager Vitor Pereira but still have work to do if they are to climb away from relegation danger. This will be an entertaining one and whilst Wolves will have a good go, Chelsea should see them off at home.
Betting tip: Chelsea to win the match ($1.33)
Chelsea to win 3-1
