The Magpies Host the Blues

The Magpies recently bounced back from the bitter derby setback to Sunderland, securing a thrilling 2-1 triumph over Fulham to march into the EFL Cup semi-finals during the week’s midpoint, courtesy of Lewis Miley’s last-gasp decisive intervention.

The Geordie faithful will be determined to capitalise on that triumph with three crucial points against the West Londoners, and a homecoming to their fortress will certainly embolden their confidence. The statistics speak volumes: they have won five, drawn one and lost merely two of their eight home EPL matches, while they have also won all of their last four home meetings with Chelsea.

While Chelsea stand impressive on the road this term, amassing the joint-second best points tally away from home in the league (14 points from eight games), the Blues have been underwhelming in recent weeks. With a difficult trip to St James’ Park, we are supporting the hosts to win.

Manchester City vs West Ham United

The striking sensation’s phenomenal goalscoring record since signing for Manchester City has continued this season, with the forward already accumulating 23 goals in 22 appearances across all competitions, featuring delivering three in his last two matches.

Haaland has been especially devastating against West Ham for the Citizens, registering nine goals in six appearances against the Hammers. Given such remarkable history, we are supporting the sublime forward to extend his remarkable record with a further goal.

Erling Haaland to score anytime, 1.40 – 3T83RWG

North London Receives Merseyside

Hugo Ekitike delivered a blistering start to life at Liverpool before enduring a fallow period throughout October and November, but the French forward has rediscovered goalscoring ways in December.

A brace against Leeds United was succeeded by another brace in Liverpool’s dominant 2-0 win over Brighton & Hove Albion, leaving the striker with four goals in his last two English Premier League outings.

As Liverpool are prepared to take on a Tottenham Hotspur side that have been especially disappointing at home—taking just eight points from eight home league games, while they have also leaked a significant 21 goals in just 16 EPL matches—we are backing the Reds to have considerable attacking success.

Given the clinical touch of Ekitike, we are backing the striker to get on the scoresheet in this one.

Aston Villa vs Manchester United

Aston Villa have lost just one of their last 32 matches at Villa Park across all competitions, while they have also triumphed in all of their last nine games in all competitions, endowing them with abundant confidence as they prepare to face an notably unpredictable Manchester United team.

While the Red Devils have lost merely one of their last 10 encounters, Ruben Amorim’s side have secured only two of their last seven EPL matches, and they are arriving into this one off the back of a wild 4-4 draw with Bournemouth—highlighting their defensive frailties.

Despite the fact that Manchester United are likely to give Aston Villa a robust test, notably in defence as the Red Devils boast the joint-second best attack in the league with 30 goals accumulated, we expect Aston Villa will stand resolute and secure the victory.
