Pundit's bank on Manchester City and Arsenal and other predictions

 Last weekend produced plenty shocking results but Godwin d Pundit was able to call six match outcomes correctly. He is back this weekend with his expert tips on all the EPL games. So which team is he backing for the win? Read on to find out.

Manchester City vs Brentford

I thought Manchester City showed their class last weekend to win against Fulham with ten men. You won't find many teams in the league that will be able to pull such a feat. This is the last game before the World Cup and Manchester City will be looking to end on a winning note. Brentford have been really poor recently and they will be low on confidence going into this game. I am going for a comfortable Manchester City win here.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Manchester City 3-0 Brentford

Liverpool vs Southampton

If Liverpool still have the hope of finishing in the top four, then they ought to be winning this sort of game. The Reds have not really impressed this season against the weaker teams and Southampton with a new manager will be fancying their chances here. I think if Liverpool play with top gear here they will win. So I am just going to back Jurgen Klopp's men to win but it's going to be a slim one.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Liverpool 1-0 Southampton

Tottenham vs Leeds United

Looking at the previous matches of these two sides, one can't really tell who will triumph here. Any of these two sides can win here. But Tottenham have got the edge in their head-to-head record. Tottenham lost at home to Liverpool last weekend and they will be looking to avoid back to back defeats at home. So I am backing Antonio Conte's men to either win or draw this game.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Tottenham 2-1 Leeds United

West Ham vs Leicester City

Gradually, Leicester City are beginning to find their feet having started the season on a very poor note. However, they have struggled against West Ham in recent meetings. West Ham have won three in their last four meetings; with their most recent meeting ending in a 2-2 draw. West Ham lost at home to Crystal Palace last weekend, the Hammers will be looking to avoid back to back defeats at home in this one. I am just going to bank on this one to end in a draw. As I really can't separate these two sides.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: West Ham 1-1 Leicester City

Bournemouth vs Everton

Both teams are really struggling in the league but it's Bournemouth that came out on top when these two sides met in the Carabao Cup in midweek. Bournemouth have shown their dominance in this particular fixture by winning the last three games between these two in all competitions. I am struggling to call a winner here because any of these two sides can actually win this game but I think a draw will be a decent result for both teams. So I am going for a draw here on Saturday.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Bournemouth 2-2 Everton

Nottingham Forest vs Crystal Palace

Nottingham Forest are a very funny side, they can win against a very difficult side today and go on to lose their next five games against teams they should really be going shoulder to shoulder with. I think Crystal Palace will get something out of this clash. Patrick Vieira's men have really impressed me this season. I didn't give them a chance against West Ham last weekend and they went to London and took all maximum points. So I am going to bank on Crystal Palace to win or draw.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Nottingham Forest 1-1 Crystal Palace

Newcastle vs Chelsea

The Blues are really going through difficult time under new manager Graham Potter. They have not won in their last five domestic fixtures. And if they looking to win to end the poor run of form, Newcastle is the wrong choice of opponent to face at the moment. The Magpies are really flying at the moment - winning all of their last five domestic fixtures. Chelsea will be banking on their decent run against Newcastle in recent meetings but this is going to be a difficult mountain to climb for the Blues. If you want my honest opinion about this game I will tell you I am going to bank on Newcastle to either win or draw this one. I don't see a Chelsea victory here.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Newcastle 1-1 Chelsea

Wolves vs Arsenal

If Arsenal are looking to go into the World Cup break on top of the log then they should be winning this one. Wolves are really struggling so far in the season and a really decent team will beat them on any ground. So if Arsenal come up with their A game here, I don't see Wolves stopping them.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Wolves 0-1 Arsenal

Brighton vs Aston Villa

Aston Villa and Unai Emery shocked everyone last weekend when they comfortably defeated Manchester United 3-1. They will be looking to cause another shocker in this fixture. But Brighton have started to enjoy a decent run of form and they will be looking to building on the run here. I am going to go for Brighton to win or draw but if Aston Villa win here I wouldn't be surprised.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Brighton 1-0 Aston Villa

Fulham vs Manchester United

Manchester United really disappointed me last weekend. The manner inn which they lost to Aston Villa was really upsetting. Aston Villa really dominated the game and were worthy winners at the end of 90 minutes. Erik Ten Hag's men showed some efforts in midweek to win 4-2 when they met Aston Villa in the Carabao Cup. Fulham are a tricky side and are very difficult to beat on their day but Manchester United can take solace from the fact that Fulham have lost against all the top five teams they have met so far this season. I am not confident on a Manchester United win even if this looks like a fixture they should be winning. So I am going to bank on Manchester United to win or draw.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Fulham 1-2 Manchester United

D'Pundit pick winners as Chelsea and Arsenal do battle at Stamford Bridge

Godwin D Pundit is back with his weekly EPL matches predictions as Chelsea and Arsenal look set to do battle this weekend. So who is D'Pundit tipping to win in the game? Read on to find out...

Manchester City vs Fulham

I don't know if Erling Haaland will be available for this match otherwise I would have tipped this game to result in a drubbing. However, Manchester City without Erling Haaland are still a very quality side. Fulham are also no pushovers and they will prove their worth here but I still expect Manchester City to find a way past them. So I am going for a very slim Manchester City win.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Manchester City 1-0 Fulham

Wolves vs Brighton

Wolves come into this game on the back of one win from their last eight league games. They will be low on confidence level. Meanwhile, Brighton will be coming into this game on the back of an impressive 4-1 victory against Chelsea. That will boost their confidence ahead of this game. The last time these two sides met on this same ground, Brighton were 3-0 winners. I don't expect Brighton to win again here with that sort of a margin but I think Brighton have got what it takes to win this game. My prediction on this game is a narrow victory for Roberto De Zerbi's side.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Wolves 1-2 Brighton

Leeds vs Bournemouth

Both sides have lost many games prior to this match but it is Leeds who will be energized by their win last weekend at Anfield. They will try to prove in this game that the win against Liverpool isn't a fluke. I expect the game to be a very tough one for both sides but in the end I think Leeds have got what it takes to at least get a point from the game. So, I am going for Leeds to either win it draw this one.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Leeds 1-0 Bournemouth

Nottingham Forest vs Brentford

Nottingham Forest won against Liverpool only to go on last weekend to lose 5-0 to Arsenal. I was really disappointed with the result last weekend. I thought a team that have just defeated Liverpool should be very buoyed by that and try get something from their next game. Brentford are a very inconsistent side and one simply can't predict what they can come up with. But I am going to tip this one to end in a draw; and I expect goals at both ends of the pitch.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Nottingham Forest 1-1 Brentford

Everton vs Leicester City

I am strongly tipping Leicester City to get something out of this clash. They look the more in-form side and also posses the better quality. I am tipping Leicester City to either win or draw this match.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Everton 1-1 Leicester City

Chelsea vs Arsenal

This game is the biggest game of the weekend in the EPL and I expect it to really entertain. Brighton put a dent on Chelsea's impressive run under new manager Graham Potter last weekend and the Blues will be looking to find their feet again. However, Arsenal are not just on top the log for nothing, they have really merit their spot on top of the table. The Gunners play swashbuckling football and have only been defeated once so far in the league. However, if you ask me if this Arsenal can win the league, I will say no. I say so because aside the first eleven the Gunners do not posses a quality reserve side that can come in and prove their worth in the absence of an injured or suspended first teamer. That's where Manchester City are supreme. Pep Guardiola can easily tweak his starting eleven and still win games with his reserve side. But I think Arsenal will finish in the top four this season. The players just need to try to stay fit. On this game I am struggling to separate both teams so I will tip this one to end in a score draw.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Chelsea 1-1 Arsenal

Aston Villa vs Manchester United

Aston Villa are still trying to cope with sacking Steven Gerrard and I think this will be Unai Emery's first game in charge of the club. Unai Emery is not a bad manager but I think he will struggle again in the Premier League unless he is heavily backed in the market. And we know a club of Aston Villa's stature do not spend heavily in the market. Meanwhile, Manchester United are enjoying a purple patch and I think they have got what it takes to win here. The Red Devils just need to be more clinical in front of goal and they will keep winning matches. My prediction on this game is Manchester United to win but win narrowly.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Aston Villa 0-1 Manchester United

West Ham vs Crystal Palace

Both teams are not doing badly but I think West Ham are the favourites here. West Ham are playing at home and they look the more in-form side. West Ham have not lost in the last four meetings between these two clubs and I see them extending the run here. I am going for West Ham to either win or draw here.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: West Ham 1-0 Crystal Palace

Southampton vs Newcastle

I see Newcastle winning this one. Southampton might make things difficult but Newcastle will win eventually. The Magpies are in a great vein of form and I just can't see this struggling Southampton stopping them.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Southampton 1-2 Newcastle

Tottenham vs Liverpool

This is another big one this weekend. Liverpool have been very inconsistent this season otherwise I would have tipped then to win this one. Liverpool showed their inconsistency again when they lost to struggling Leeds United but defeated in-form Napoli in the Champions League. No one can tell what Liverpool will produce on Sunday. But the last two meetings between these two sides have resulted in a draw so I am going to back this one to also end in a draw.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Tottenham 2-2 Liverpool

D'Pundit's EPL correct score tips

The Premier League has been churning out loads of surprising results and this weekend looks set to produce more stunning results. So look out for Godwin d Pundit's super tips to guide you on which team to bank on this weekend.

Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool

Nottingham Forest have not won in their last nine league games and they don't look like they are going to win here. Liverpool seem to have turn the tide since their 7-1 win over Rangers in the Champions League. They have gone on to win both Manchester City and West Ham since then. If they keep up the momentum here I don't see how they won't come out of this one with all maximum points.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Nottingham Forest 0-2 Liverpool

Manchester City vs Brighton

Manchester City will come into this match as a wounded lion after that 1-0 defeat to Liverpool last weekend. However, Brighton are no pushovers and I expect them to give Manchester City a good run for their money. I think Manchester City will win this one at the end of 90 minutes but it won't be an easy one for Pep Guardiola's men.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Manchester City 1-0 Brighton

Everton vs Crystal Palace

Everton have lost all their last three league games and they will be bereft of confidence coming into this clash. Crystal Palace are not doing excellently well at the moment but they are also not doing badly. They have won two out of their previous three league games and I think they will get something from this clash. I am not confident of a Crystal Palace win here but I am sure they will get something from this clash. That's why I am going to go for a draw here.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Everton 1-1 Crystal Palace

Chelsea vs Manchester United

All eyes will be on Stamford Bridge as this two Premier League heavyweights clash on Saturday evening. Recent meetings between these two have been closely contested. To put things into perspective, the last four league meetings between these two have resulted in a draw. Both teams are under new manager's and both are still trying to figure out the best team for their respective side. This is going to be another difficult match for both teams and the side that will take their chances will come out victorious. However, I am just going to go for a draw here as I really can't point out the winner between these looking at their current form.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Chelsea 1-1 Manchester United

Southampton vs Arsenal

I know Southampton won in their last game in the league at Bournemouth but they are going to lose this one. Arsenal are in an excellent form at the moment and I just can't see Southampton stopping Arsenal from winning here.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Southampton 0-1 Arsenal

Wolves vs Leicester City

Both teams are really struggling at the moment and I think this will end in a draw. Leicester City are the favourites here looking at the quality in their rank but Wolves are playing at home in front of their supporters and I think that counts for something. To be sincere, I am really struggling to separate these two so I am going to go for a goalless draw.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Wolves 0-0 Leicester City

Aston Villa vs Brentford

Aston Villa are really struggling at the moment and I don't think they will be able to win here. They haven't won in the league since the middle of last month. Meanwhile, with Brentford, you can really tell what they are going to do. They are a very difficult side to predict but I am going to try my best here and predict this to end in a draw. However, if the game goes on to produce a winner, then it will be Brentford.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Aston Villa 1-1 Brentford

Leeds United vs Fulham

Leeds United are not really doing well in the league at the moment. For context, the last time they won a league game was in August. Meanwhile, Fulham win 3-0 in their most recent game against Aston Villa. The Cottagers will be looking to ride on the back of that winning result here. This is going to be a very difficult game for both sides and I am banking on the game to end in a goalless draw.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Leeds United 0-0 Fulham

Tottenham vs Newcastle

I watched Tottenham in midweek against Manchester United and I thought they were really poor. They will need to improve on that performance here if they desire a win against this Eddie Howe's Newcastle side. Newcastle are in form at the moment and Tottenham have got to be at the top of their game to win this. I really think Tottenham will improve on their performance here from their last game and nick a win here.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Tottenham 1-0 Newcastle

West Ham vs Bournemouth

West Ham are not doing badly at the moment even though they lost their last game to Liverpool. I think if they play their best here they will win. Bournemouth are a very tricky side - and can come up with any thing but I think West Ham will have too much much for them in this one.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: West Ham 1-0 Bournemouth

D'Pundit's Super Betting tips as Liverpool and Manchester City lock horns in the EPL

Godwin D Pundit called six outcomes correctly last weekend including the score-line of the game involving Manchester City and Southampton. He is back again this weekend to give his expert analysis on all EPL games slated for the weekend. So with Liverpool and Manchester City set to lock horns this weekend, who should you be banking on? Read on to find out...

Brentford vs Brighton

Brentford have not won in their last three league games - losing twice in the process. They will be looking to change that trend on Friday night when they come up against Brighton. Meanwhile, Brighton come into this game on the back of 1-0 loss to Tottenham. They too will also be looking to bounce back in this game. I think this game is going to end in a draw as I simply can't separate these two sides.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Brentford 1-1 Brighton

Leicester City vs Crystal Palace

Crystal Palace are a very difficult side to play against under Patrick Vieira and I think they will prove difficult to beat here. Brendan Rodgers does not have much time left, he is got to start delivering results otherwise he will get the sack. This is also going to be a very difficult game for both teams, a game I am struggling to call a winner. I will just go with my guts and stick to a draw.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Leicester City 1-1 Crystal Palace

Wolves vs Nottingham Forest

I mentioned on this blog last weekend that Nottingham Forest's boss Steve Cooper has got to start earning points otherwise he will get axed and he earned a draw at home against Aston Villa as I predicted. Nottingham Forest will have to play out their best if they desire a point or more from this clash. Wolves have lost all their last three league games and will be looking to turn things around with a win here. This is going to be a difficult match for both teams but I think Wolves have got what it takes to get a win here at home.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Wolves 1-0 Nottingham Forest

Fulham vs Bournemouth

Bournemouth are still unbeaten under Gary O'Neil. They will be looking to continue that run here. However, they are going to be playing against a highly technical side in Fulham. The Cottagers have lost their last two games and will be looking to change that trend here. If Fulham play to their best here, Bournemouth doesn't stand a chance. In my opinion, Fulham are the better side. So I am going to bank on Fulham to nick a win here.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score: Fulham 2-1 Bournemouth

Tottenham vs Everton

I expected Tottenham to draw at Brighton last weekend and they went on and got a 1-0 win there. I think I am going to trust them here to get the win. Everton's revival was halted last weekend when they played Manchester United and I think they will find things difficult playing against Antonio Conte's Tottenham here.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Tottenham 1-0 Everton

Manchester United vs Newcastle

After that heavy defeat at Manchester City, Manchester United are slowly getting back into good form having won all the games they have played in since then. Newcastle are a very difficult side to play against these days and I think they will really give Manchester United a good run for their money. This is the kind of game that can go both ways. I really don't see this one ending in a draw. I think the team that is going to take their chances will win here. And I am going to stick with Manchester United to win here for the fact that they are playing at home in front of their massive fans. 

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Manchester United 1-0 Newcastle

Aston Villa vs Chelsea

Aston Villa have not lost in their last four league games but they have only won once. They come against a Chelsea side that have won their last four games in all competitions. This is going to be a very interesting game and a very difficult one for both teams but I think Chelsea have got what it takes to run away with all three points here. Though, it's going to be a very slim win for the Blues.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Aston Villa 1-2 Chelsea

Leeds vs Arsenal

Arsenal are unstoppable at the moment. They are winning every team in front of them. Leeds will prove difficult but I think Arsenal will win at the end of 90 minutes here. I say so because Leeds have lost three out of their last five league games and are currently lacking in confidence making things easier for the Gunners.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Leeds 1-3 Arsenal

Southampton vs West Ham

West Ham are currently experiencing purple patch at the moment having won their last four games in all competitions. Meanwhile, things are the opposite for Southampton who have lost all their last four league games. West Ham will be brimming with confidence here and I expect them get the maximum points here.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Southampton 1-2 West Ham

Liverpool vs Manchester City

All eyes will be on this game on Sunday when these two heavyweights clash at Anfield. Liverpool come into this game on the back of an impressive 7-1 win at Rangers. The Reds are lacking several senior team players to injury but they showed against Rangers that they can perform without them. Manchester City have always find playing against Liverpool very difficult and I think it won't change here. This is going to be a very difficult game for both teams one that is sure to produce goals at both ends of the pitch. Manchester City are still the favourites here I think they have got what it takes to nick victory here. So it's going to be Manchester City to win narrowly for me.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Liverpool 1-2 Manchester City

D'Pundit picks winners as Arsenal and Liverpool do battle in the EPL

Last weekend, I was able to correctly call seven (7) match outcomes out of ten. I am back this weekend to give my predictions on all matches in the EPL slated for the weekend. So, read on to find out who I will be backing for the win this weekend.

Manchester City vs Southampton

This is not a matter of who will win here, it's a matter of how many goals will Manchester City win by here. Southampton have been really poor this season - and they have lost their last three league games coming into this clash. Manchester City have been scoring for fun recently and I expect them to feast in this one.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Manchester City 4-0 Southampton

Chelsea vs Wolves

I predicted last weekend that Chelsea were going to pick up their first win under  Graham Potter - and they did. I think if they play their best here they will win. Wolves have been utterly poor this season - picking up just one win so far. Chelsea will have too much for Wolves here.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Chelsea 2-0 Wolves

Bournemouth vs Leicester City

Bournemouth are still unbeaten under Gary O'Neil, but I think their resolve will be truly tested here. I say so because Leicester are coming into this game on the back of an impressive 4-0 win over Nottingham Forest. The Foxes will be brimming with confidence in this one and I expect them to get something out of this game. I think Bournemouth will make things difficult for Leicester City here, that's why I can't guarantee a Leicester City win. I am just going to go with a draw here. However, if this game goes on to produce a winner then it will be Leicester City.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Bournemouth 1-1 Leicester City

Newcastle United vs Brentford

This is going to be a very interesting match on Saturday. I didn't give Newcastle a chance at Fulham last weekend yet they went on to drub Fulham 4-1. They will certainly be looking to continue on that momentum here. Meanwhile, Brentford have been inconsistent this season - one really can't tell what they can come up with. However, I think if Newcastle play on top gear here, they will win. So I am going to back Eddie Howe's men to come out top but it's going to be a slim win.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Newcastle United 2-1 Brentford

Brighton vs Tottenham

I will be looking out for this game on Saturday evening. These two teams have impressed so far this season and it will be difficult to call a winner here. I enjoyed watching Brighton play under Graham Potter and now under new manager Roberto De Zerbi, Brighton have shown that they can still entertain whilst getting result. Brighton really impressed me against Liverpool last weekend and they were unlucky not to come out of that one with the maximum points. Tottenham have been result oriented under Antonio Conte and they will be looking to bounce back from their defeat to Arsenal last weekend. I am really struggling to pick a winner here, so I am just going to back this one to end in a very entertaining draw.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Brighton 2-2 Tottenham

West Ham vs Fulham

West Ham will be looking to build on their 2-0 win over Wolves here while Fulham will be looking to react to their defeat against Newcastle here. I think this is also going to be a very entertaining game. It's really going to be a difficult game for both teams but I think West Ham playing at home have got what it takes to nick victory here.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: West Ham 1-0 Fulham

Crystal Palace vs Leeds United

Both teams have been poor in their recent games and I think they will both be looking to win this game to turn their season around. Crystal Palace can be very difficult to play against at home. So I see Leeds United struggling here. I am not overly confident on this one but I think Crystal Palace have got what it takes to come out with all maximum points here.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Crystal Palace 1-0 Leeds United

Arsenal vs Liverpool

This is the game everyone will be looking out for this weekend. This fixture has always been very entertaining. Arsenal fans will not go into this game very confident because of how their team has fared in this fixture in recent time. Liverpool have won in the last four league meetings between these two. But looking at current form of both teams, it will be difficult to trust Liverpool with victory here. Arsenal have been very impressive dismantling every opponent they have faced save for Manchester United only. Liverpool will need to be very organized at the back if they don't want Arsenal to do to them what they have been doing to other opponents this season. I see this game ending in a very entertaining draw. I really think Liverpool will look at the quality of opponent they are facing and turn up. 

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Arsenal 2-2 Liverpool

Everton vs Manchester United

Everton seem to have turn a corner winning their last two league games. They will definitely be looking to continue on that winning form here. Meanwhile, Manchester United will be looking to react after losing scandalously to Manchester City last time out. The Red Devils were involved in Europa League game in Thursday at Omonia Nicosia, winning there 3-2. Their last two games in all competitions have shown that their defense need fixing. They conceded eight goals in just two games which is alarming. Everton will be looking at that stat and be thinking 'we can do it'. Erik Ten Hag simply needs to sort out his defense otherwise they might be in for another shocker against Everton. I am projecting this game to end in a draw as Manchester United haven't really impressed me in their last two games to warrant me giving them a win here. 

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Everton 1-1 Manchester United

Nottingham Forest vs Aston Villa

If Nottingham Forest loses here, I think the manager will be gone by Monday. I say so because the manager has been fully backed in the window and now needs to deliver. Aston Villa on their part will come here looking to pile more misery on Nottingham Forest. I think this will end in a draw. As I simply can not separate these two looking at their current form. Nottingham Forest have got to avoid defeat here to save Steve Cooper's job.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Nottingham Forest 0-0 Aston Villa
