ARSENAL v MANCHESTER UNITED
This is a critical match in the race for a Top 4 or even a Top 6 finish with the Gunners currently 5th on the log, 3 points ahead of Manchester United in 6th and having played a game less.
Arsenal turned in an impressive performance last time out beating Chelsea 4-2 on the road and that broke a run of 3 successive losses, 2 of which came at home.
Manchester United were hammered 4-0 away at Liverpool in midweek and that after they battled to get past Norwich 3-2 at home. United have now lost 3 in a row on the road.
Looking at these sides goal stats not much jumps out with Arsenal home games and Manchester United away games having a fairly even split between over and under 2.5 goals.
Manchester United beat Arsenal 3-2 at home earlier in the season and this fixture finished goalless last season.

Arsenal 23/20
Draw 5/2
Manchester United 5/2
Suggested Bet: Arsenal win at 23/20
Manchester United appear to be in disarray at the moment and although Arsenal haven't been firing on all cylinders their Chelsea victory was impressive and they carry momentum heading into this fixture.
CHELSEA v WEST HAM
Chelsea are currently 3rd on the log, but they have lost 2 of their last 3 starts, both of those games at home, 4-1 loss to Brentford and then more recently a 4-2 loss to Arsenal. Were the League table drawn up on just home games Chelsea would be languishing in 9th position.
West Ham are 7th on the table and have only won once in their last 4 starts. Last time out they drew 1-1 at home to Burnley and they lost 2-0 away at Brentford in their last away game. West Ham have only taken 1 point from the last 15 they have played for on the road.
5 of the last 6 Chelsea matches have had 4 goals or more in them and 4 of the last 5 West Ham games have seen both teams find the net. West Ham beat Chelsea 3-2 at home earlier this season and this fixture finished 3-0 to Chelsea last season.

Chelsea 4/7
Draw 33/10
West Ham 5/1
Suggested Bet: Over 2.5 goals at 8/10
Given recent Chelsea matches this season it seems a cracking price and would also have arrived in 3 of the last 4 head-to-heads between the sides.
LIVERPOOL v EVERTON
The Mersey side derby ends the weekend for us and it sees title chasing Liverpool currently in 2nd spot and 1 point behind Manchester City take on Everton who sit just 1 point above the relegation zone in 17th.
Liverpool hammered Manchester United 4-0 earlier in the week and they have only dropped 2 points in the last 30 they have played for. Their home record is superb with 13 wins and 3 draws in 16 starts.
Everton drew 1-1 at home to Leicester on Wednesday and prior to that beat Manchester United 1-0 at home. Everton have the worst away record in the League with just 1 win in 15 starts during which time they have scored 13 goals and conceded 33.
Liverpool were too strong for Everton in the reverse fixture winning 4-1 but last season Everton shocked Liverpool winning at Anfield 2-0.

Liverpool 1/5
Draw 13/2
Everton 13/1
Suggested Bet: Liverpool Totals Over 2.5 goals at 8/10
For this bet to arrive we need Liverpool to score at least 3 goals and looking at their current form and Everton’s troubles on the road I make this a confident selection.
