Premier League Matchday 11 Schedule

Premier League Matchday 11 Picks

Tottenham vs. Man United

Saturday’s early kick off will see Man United travel to Tottenham. The Red Devils have gone four without defeat, while home form has plagued the progress made by Spurs under Thomas Frank.

Tottenham have dominated the previous encounters, winning three of the last five. However, based on their struggles in North London, it could be a match that is perfectly set up for United’s counter-attacking style of play.

Everton vs. Fulham

Everton have struggled for victories in the Premier League recently, winning just one of their last seven. Fulham ended their three-game losing sequence with a win over Wolves last time out.

However, the Cottagers have recorded just a single win across their last five on the road. Despite this, Fulham have avoided defeat in their last six EPL fixtures against Everton. Interestingly, half of the matches have ended in draws.

West Ham vs. Burnley

A relegation six-pointer is set for the London Stadium on Saturday. West Ham enjoyed a fine win against Newcastle last Sunday, while the Clarets battled despite losing against Arsenal.

The Hammers have avoided defeat in their last six EPL fixtures against Burnley, while the Clarets have won just twice in eleven away matches against West Ham. Therefore, the preference is for the home win when making Premier League picks.

Sunderland vs. Arsenal

Arsenal could stretch their advantage at the top of the EPL standings when they travel to the impressive Sunderland.

The Gunners have avoided defeat in their last 15 league meetings with the Black Cats, but Sunderland are unbeaten in their five home matches this season since returning to the Premier League. Sunderland’s ability to deal with set-pieces could stifle the Gunners this weekend, meaning that a low-scoring draw could be an interesting angle.

Chelsea vs. Wolves

Managerless Wolves travel to inconsistent Chelsea in Saturday’s late kick-off. Wolves are yet to win their season, and they have already suffered eight defeats in the opening ten.

Chelsea have won four on the bounce against their opponents, scoring nine in the two league meetings last term. The defensive issues surrounding the visitors mean that it is challenging to overlook a home win when making Premier League picks.

Aston Villa vs. Bournemouth

Aston Villa appear to have turned a corner this season, despite having suffered a loss against Liverpool last Saturday.

Bournemouth have been one of the stories of the season, and they have avoided defeat in eight of their last nine games. A close head-to-head record makes this challenging to call, but the fact that the Villa have European soccer to contend with this week means that the nod goes to the visitors.

Brentford vs. Newcastle

Brentford have been largely consistent in the Premier League this season, winning three of their last five. They have also excelled at home against non-London teams, winning five of their last six.

Newcastle’s indifferent start to the season is a major issue, while they are winless in their last eight on the road. Therefore, the advantage could be given to the home team this weekend.

Crystal Palace vs. Brighton

The M23 Derby is also staged on Sunday. Crystal Palace have been in patchy form so far this season, but they have avoided defeat in their last four at Selhurst Park.

Brighton have excelled on the road this term, and have been a constant attacking threat. Draws are a common outcome when these sides collide, with seven of the 16 EPL clashes ending in ties. That could be an interesting betting angle this weekend.

Nottingham Forest vs. Leeds

An important match-up at the bottom of the Premier League standings is set for Sunday, as Nottingham Forest host Leeds. Forest have won just one of their opening nine games, while Leeds have registered three victories.

Leeds have a fine record in this fixture, winning three of the last five. Leeds United’s counter-attacking style could be perfectly suited to this challenge at the City Ground on Sunday.

Man City vs. Liverpool

The big match of the weekend is set for the Etihad Stadium. Liverpool have bounced back to form with successive wins, while Man City come into the round in electric offense form after scoring seven in their last two.

High-scoring affairs have been common when these sides collide, with over 2.5 goals being scored in six of the last ten. City’s home advantage could be the crucial factor to consider when making Premier League picks this weekend.
