Manchester City v Nottingham Forest – Click here to bet
This match will be played at the Etihad Stadium between 1st place Manchester City and 8th place Nottingham Forest.
Manchester City have had a successful start to the campaign having won all of their 5 matches played. They won their last match against West Ham United away last weekend and the scoreline was 3-1 to City despite being 1-0 down at the break. Manchester City are looking to continue their winning ways and are looking to maintain their perfect start to the season.
Nottingham Forest started their campaign with a loss and have gone on to win 2 matches, draw one and lose another. They drew their match against newly promoted Burnley at home in their last start and the scoreline was 1-1 with Hudson-Odoi scoring the equalizer. This match will be a tough ask for Forest as they are playing at the Etihad where City beat them 6-0 last season.
Prediction
2-0 Manchester City

Crystal Palace v Fulham – Click here to bet
This match will be played at Selhurst Park and is a London Derby. 9th place Crystal Palace will be playing 11th place Fulham.
Crystal Palace have won 2 of their 5 matches and have struggled with consistency. Palace lost 3-1 to Aston Villa at Villa Park last weekend. They will be looking to win this match and start to build their consistency as they look to consolidate in the top 10.
Fulham have had a tough start to the campaign having lost two matches where the scorelines were large. The side has drawn one match and have won one match. They will be looking to get a winning streak going after they beat Luton Town last weekend at Craven Cottage where the scoreline was 1-0.
This match will be closely contested as both sides are looking to build consistency but I see Palace edging a low scoring game.
Prediction
1-0 Crystal Palace.
Suggested Bet: Crystal Palace win at 9/10
Brentford v Everton – Click here to bet
This match will be played the Gtech Community Stadium. 11th place Brentford will take on 18th place Everton.
Brentford have started the campaign with 3 draws, one win and a loss. The side lost to Newcastle United last weekend at St James’ Park where the scoreline was 1-0. They will look to convert this match into a win, their 1st home win of the season with the other 3 home matches finishing as draws.
Everton have had a rocky start to the season as they have lost 4 of their 5 matches collecting just a single point. The side lost to Arsenal last weekend at Goodison Park where the scoreline was 1-0. Everton’s only points of the season came away to Sheffield United in their penultimate start and they would probably take another draw here.
I think Brentford will be too strong at home for a struggling Everton.
Prediction
3-0 Brentford
Suggested Bet: Handicap, Brentford -1.5 at 21/10
Burnley v Manchester United – Click here to bet
This match will be played at Turf Moor home of Burnley. 13th place Manchester United will be playing 19th place Burnley.
Burnley the newly promoted team have had a tough start to the season having lost 3 of their 4 matches. The side drew to Nottingham Forest at The City Ground in their last start where the scoreline was 1-1 and that was their 1st point of the season.
Manchester United have had a tough start to the campaign losing 3 of their 5 matches. The side lost to Brighton Hove Albion at Old Trafford where the scoreline was 3-1. Manchester United have los both of their away matches to Arsenal and Tottenham this season.
This is a great opportunity for Manchester United to get moving up the table and I am backing them to take 3 points.
Prediction
2-1 Manchester United
Suggested Bet: Manchester United win at 15/20
