This Week's Premier League Predictions by resultcase(m): 7:01pm On Dec 12, 2014
Burnley Vs Southamton
Burnley will be brimming with confidence after a poor start to the season and they have now only lost 1 in the last 5. They host a Southampton side that will be kicking themselves after losing to City, Arsenal and Man utd in quick succession. It will be hotly contested but i expect Southampton to return to winning ways with a narrow win.

Prediction: 1-2


Chelsea Vs Hull
I honestly think Chelsea will be happy to have finally lost a match, the pressure that comes with people expecting them to go the whole season unbeaten would have had psychological detriments down the line, so it was better it happened now rather than later. I feel sorry for Hull because i think they have a really good squad but Steve Bruce hasn't got them to gel as well as they did at the start of the season.Matic returns for this but Fabregas is unavailable due to suspension, despite that Chelsea should see this through.

Prediction: 2-0

Crystal Palace Vs Stoke
After the 3-1 win over Liverpool a few weeks ago Crystal Palace seem to have gone back into a shell. Their aim this season will be survival but if they wish to achieve that they need to turn things around quick. Stoke decimated Arsenal in the first half of the match last week and frankly should have been 4-0 up at one point. Bojan was an absolute beast in that match and i expect the likes of him putting the balls into the box for Peter Crouch to increase the pressure on Palace

Prediction: 1-2

Leicester City Vs Machester City
It's been over 2 months ago since Leicester beat Man Utd 5-3 and everyone was expecting them to be a big hit this season. Fast forward today they sit bottom of the league, haven't won in 10 games and the manager having a spat with fans doesn't help with things either. City have lost Aguero, while Kompany is a doubt for this. Aguero has been the talisman for them this season and unfortunately the likes of Nasri and Toure haven't contributed as much as you would have expected them to, despite that the return of David Silva will be a big boost for them and they should win this comfortably.

Prediction: 0-2

Sunderland Vs West Ham
Sunderland, the draw masters. After their 8-0 trashing to Southampton a few weeks back they have tightened up at the back but they continue to, yes, draw, they've drawn 4 of their last 5 matches. West Ham lie in 4th and are in great form, Andy Caroll is scoring and Sakho is back in the line up. However, one thing about Sunderland is their capability of shutting out even the strongest of attacks with draws against Chelsea, Liverpool and Everton recently.

Prediction: 1-1

West Brom Vs Aston Villa
Berahino's goals have gone dry and West Brom seem to have no alternatives now losing 4 of their last 5 matches. Villa on the other hand were previously on a losing streak of 6 matches but have managed to avoid defeat in their last 5 winning the previous 2. Benteke is back, Agbonlahor is more effective and Sanchez is controlling the midfield, Villa should narrowly see this through.

Prediction: 0-1

Arsenal Vs Newcastle
Arsenal fans continue to call for Arsene Wenger's sack, he answered his critics after the woeful defeat to Stoke with a convincing 4-1 win in the champions league, however they will be without Ramsey for this encounter. Newcastle are now the talk of the league after their not so unexpected victory against Chelsea. The magpies are in very good form taking into account that they have an injury ravaged squad. Arsenal also have a lengthy injury list but will be buoyed by the return of Debuchy in defense though he will be expected to play centrally with Koscielny still out and the inexperienced Bellerin taking his wing back role. Newcastle also don't have Sissoko for this and will only have their 3rd choice goalkeeper Alnwick in goal for this. Newcastle will terrorize this make shift Arsenal defense but they have a very poor record at the Emirates and Arsenal should have enough firepower up top to cancel out the magpies, there will be goals a plenty.

Prediction: 3-3

Manchester United Vs Liverpool
Last season Liverpool came to Old Trafford and convincingly beat united 0-3, today you will be a madman if you think the same thing will happen. A lot of people have called United's recent form lucky, yes, they have not performed in most of those matches, but luck does not get you 5 wins in a row. United continue to have a shaky defense but Liverpool have no goal scorers, whilst Liverpool have a shaky defense but United have goal scorers. I expect a reversal of the same scoreline from last season.

Prediction: 3-0

Swansea Vs Tottenham
Swansea will feel unhappy with last week's loss to West Ham, they have a strong squad but were well beaten by the better team. Tottenham are still very inconsistent but seem to perform better when they are away from home, Harry Kane sometimes seem to be the only player that wants to play football. This could go either way but Swansea have the better quality up front and in defense to narrowly see this through.

Prediction: 2-1

Everton Vs QPR
Everton are well below expectation this season, they were so close to champions league football last season but have now only won 1 in 6. QPR is a slow train that is chugging along, they are out of the relegation zone and will hope to build on recent performances. However QPR are terrible away from home and Everton should clinch this.

Prediction: 2-0
