There are eight games on the Premier League card this Saturday in the final round of fixtures before the World Cup — here are our expert writers’ top selections for each of those fixtures.

Manchester City vs Brentford (Saturday, 13.30pm NG)
Manchester City match up really well to Brentford in that they hardly ever lose possession in areas that invite quick transitions and counter-attacks, nor are they vulnerable aerially at set-pieces.
The champions won both contests against the Bees last season without breaking sweat and another three points should be comfortably secured by the final whistle in Saturday’s encounter.

Erling Haaland’s availability ought to make things easier for Guardiola’s side, who do not look as potent when the Norwegian is not on the pitch, but they have far too much quality in attacking areas for Brentford’s backline.

Only an inspired performance from David Raya could prevent City from winning as they have done in four of their seven previous home league games this season.



Bournemouth vs Everton (Saturday, 4pm NG)
Both teams have scored in seven of the past eight head-to-head meetings between these clubs, with an average of 4.25 goals per game across that sequence.

And it would be a surprise if this was not another open affair with both Bournemouth and Everton finding the back of each other’s net, this Saturday.



Liverpool vs Southampton (Saturday, 4pm NG)
While they have suffered a few wobbles this season, Liverpool have bounced back from defeat to Leeds by beating Napoli — the form team in Europe — 2-0 at Anfield.

The Reds then took all three points from their trip to Tottenham before doing just enough with the youngsters to get through against Derby in the Carabao Cup in midweek.

Their recent home victories when keeping clean sheets against Manchester City and West Ham are more representative of Liverpool’s level at Anfield and the Reds should again win.
