PREDICTION Premier League Matchday 8

Saturday’s Action

Nottingham Forest vs Chelsea 

Ange Postecoglou is already under massive pressure — he needs a win to save his job. Chelsea’s form is shaky but improving. Expect the Blues’ quality to show late on.
Prediction: Chelsea 2–1 Forest

 Brighton vs Newcastle

Both sides are inconsistent but full of attacking flair. Newcastle’s pace could trouble Brighton’s defense.
Prediction: 2–2 Draw

Burnley vs Leeds

Leeds look sharper under new management, while Burnley are still struggling to adapt to the pace of the league.
Prediction: Leeds 1–0 Burnley

Crystal Palace vs Bournemouth

Palace have been solid at home, Bournemouth improving fast. Could be tight and tactical.
Prediction: Palace 1–1 Bournemouth

 Manchester City vs Everton

Haaland. Enough said. City at home are a machine, and Everton rarely survive these visits.
Prediction: City 3–0 Everton

 Sunderland vs Wolves

Sunderland fight hard, but Wolves finally showed spirit last week.
Prediction: Wolves 2–1 Sunderland

 Fulham vs Arsenal 

Top vs mid-table. Arsenal look calm and confident, and Fulham often leave gaps at the back.
Prediction: Arsenal 3–1 Fulham

Sunday Showdowns

 Tottenham vs Aston Villa

Villa’s away record isn’t great, but they always find goals. Spurs at home should bounce back after a poor result last time.
Prediction: Tottenham 2–1 Villa

 Liverpool vs Manchester United 

The big one at Anfield. Liverpool are wounded after three straight defeats, while United can’t win away. Anfield crowd lifts the Reds when it matters.
Prediction: Liverpool 2–0 Manchester United
