Bournemouth VS Brentford

Bournemouth host Brentford in what could prove to be a crucial game in the fight for European Football! Bournemouth could only draw 1-1 with Sunderland last weekend, and they currently sit 10th in the table! When it comes to Brentford, they somehow managed to beat Burnley 4-3 last time out, and they currently find themselves 7th in the league! In their previous 21 meetings, Bournemouth have only won 4 games compared to 11 wins for Brentford! For AFC Bournemouth, they’ll be aiming to keep their positive unbeaten streak going! The Cherries are ranked 6th in GPG (1.6), and they’re currently on an 8-game unbeaten league run (4W,4D)! As for Brentford, they’d take a point from this game!

My Prediction: 2-2
Everton VS Burnley

Everton picked up a great win away at Newcastle on Saturday, and they currently sit 8th in the table!

Wolves are hoping to create more havoc for the top teams as they welcome Liverpool to the Molineux!

Forest are ranked 19th in GPG (0.9), and they’re currently on a 3-game losing run (in all competitions)!

In fact, Spurs haven’t won in the league since they beat Palace in the reverse fixture( back in December)! For Tottenham Hotspur, they have to win this game! Spurs are ranked 10th in GPG (1.4), but they’re currently on a 10-game winless league run (4D,6L)! As for Crystal Palace, a win here would firmly keep them safe (in my opinion)!
