Premier League Predictions
This Weekend’s Premier League Predictions (From Tuesday 30th December – Thursday 1st January 2026)
The English Premier League gameweek 19 kicks off after the Midweek cup games, and we have already analyzed the top possible outcomes in all EPL games, based on watching their past performances and coaching tactics. Below are our EPL predictions this midweek:
Burnley vs Newcastle
Main Tip: Away to Win
Burnley has been very bad in recent games as they have failed to win any of their last 5 EPL games. On the bright side for the home team, they have not lost their last 2 games, but we don’t think it will be enough against Newcastle.
Newcastle have won just 1 of their last 5 games in all competitions and lost against Manchester United woefully. However, they have enough firepower to nick a win from this game.
Other Tips:
- Over 32.5 Throw-ins
- Away Over 11.5 shots
- Over 2.5 Cards
Chelsea vs Bournemouth
Main Tip: Chelsea to Win
Chelsea have been in mixed form as they have won just 2 of their last 5 games in all competitions. Against Aston Villa last weekend, they played well but switched off in the second half.
Bournemouth’s defense has been very poor in recent games as they concede easily. They have not won any of their last 5 games in the league. They have conceded 9 goals in their last 3 games, and we expect Chelsea to exploit this weakness.
Other Tips:
- Both Teams to Score
- Home – Over 14.5 Shots
- Over 7.5 Corner kicks
Nottingham Forest vs Everton
Main Tip: Both Teams to Score – No
Both teams are on a similar run in their last 5 games, as they have won only 2 games. Nottingham Forest have lost their last 2 games, while Everton have not won their last 3 games, losing 2.
We don’t expect both teams to score in this game because both teams have failed to score in Everton’s last 5 games. Also, the past 5 meetings have seen this outcome play out 100%. We expect a similar outcome in this game.
Other Tips:
- Over 2.5 Cards
- Over 7.5 Corner kicks
- Over 33.5 Throw-ins
West Ham vs Brighton
Main Tip: Both Teams to Score
Both teams have been in very bad shape as they have each lost 3 of their last 5 games and won none. West Ham lost their last 3 games in a row, while Brighton has been alternating between losses and draws.
We expect both teams to score in this game as their defenses are bad, but the attack is good enough to create chances. For each team, both teams have scored in 4 of their last 5 games, and the past 5 meetings between them have seen both teams scoring in 4 of the games.
Other Tips:
- Over 2.5 Goals
- Over 22.5 Shots
- Over 7.5 Corner Kicks
Arsenal vs Aston Villa
Main Tip: Both Teams to Score
This is one of the most exciting clashes this Tuesday as unbeaten Aston Villa, also gunning for the top position, meets Arsenal, who are in the first position. Arsenal have won 4 of their last 5 EPL games, losing 1, ironically to Aston Villa.
Aston Villa have won their last 12 games and will be looking to continue their unbeaten record as they visit the Emirates Stadium.
The last time these two teams met, both teams scored, and there were over 2.5 goals. This outcome is prevalent in most Aston Villa games. We expect a similar outcome in this game.
Other Tips:
- Over 2.5 Goals
- Over 23.5 Shots
- Over 2.5 Cards
Manchester United vs Wolves
Main Tip: Home to Win
Manchester United have been slowly finding form, although they have not maintained a winning streak. They have lost just 1 of their last 5 games in the League. Wolves, on the other hand, have just 2 points this season and can’t stop losing.
We expect Manchester United to have a field day against Wolves, as it will also help them contest for the top 4. Also, we expect over 2.5 goals to be scored in this game.
Other Tips:
- Over 2.5 Goals
- Home Over 4.5 Corners
- Home Over 12.5 Shots
Crystal Palace vs Fulham
Main Tip: Fulham to Win or Draw
Palace have been in bad shape in recent games as they have failed to win any of their last 5 matches in all competitions. Fulham, on the other hand, have been in good form, winning 3 of their last 5 games in the league.
Fulham will fancy winning Crystal Palace in this game as they lost to them the last time they met. In fact, Crystal Palace have won the last 3 meetings between these sides. However, we expect Fulham not to lose this game due to their impressive form.
Other Tips:
- Over 33.5 Throw-ins
- Over 7.5 Corners
- Over 2.5 Cards
Liverpool vs Leeds United
Main Tip: Over 2.5 Goals
Both teams have been in good form in recent games, as Liverpool has won 4 of their last 5 games. Both teams are unbeaten in their last 5 games, as Leeds have won 2 of their last 5.
This game won’t be a straightforward win for Liverpool as Leeds have proven very hard to beat in recent games. However, we expect both teams to score and for over 2.5 goals to be scored in this game.
Other Tips:
- Both Teams to Score
- Over 23.5 Shots
- Over 2.5 Cards
Brentford Vs Tottenham
Main Tip: Over 2.5 Goals
Brentford have managed to win their last 2 games, after failing to win their previous 3 games. Tottenham have won 3 of their last 5 games and will be looking to build upon their performance last weekend.
We expect both teams to score and for over 2.5 goals to be scored in this game because both teams have good firepower going forward, but they have issues defensively. Both teams to score and over 2.5 goals have played out in 3 of their last 5 meetings.
Other Tips:
- Both Teams to Score
- Over 7.5 Corner kicks
- Over 2.5 cards
Sunderland Vs Manchester City
Main Tip: Away to Win
Sunderland have won just 1 of their last 5 games in the league, although they have lost 1 too, and that was against this same opponent. Manchester City are gunning for the first position, and they might have a chance to go top of the table if Arsenal fails to win at Aston Villa this weekend.
This game is a must-win for City, and we expect a City win with at least 2.5 goals scored.
Other Tips:
- Over 2.5 Goals
- Away – Over 12.5 Shots
- Away – Over 4.5 Corner
