Newcastle United vs Chelsea

The Magpies recently recovered admirably from the disappointing derby reverse to Sunderland, claiming a pulsating 2-1 victory over Fulham to march into the EFL Cup semi-finals during midweek, courtesy of Lewis Miley's injury-time decisive intervention.

The Geordie faithful will be aiming to extend that triumph with an English Premier League victory against the Stamford Bridge outfit, and a retreat to their fortress will assuredly embolden their belief. The statistics speak volumes: they have five, drawn one and lost only two of their eight home EPL fixtures, while they have also dominated all of their last four home battles with Chelsea.

While Chelsea are strong on the road this term, accumulating the second highest points tally on the road in the league (a robust return), the Blues have been underwhelming in recent weeks. With a challenging trip to St James' Park, we are favouring the hosts to prevail.

Etihad Encounter

The Norwegian phenomenon's extraordinary goalscoring record since signing for Manchester City has persisted this season, with the striker already netting 23 goals in 22 games across all competitions, with delivering three in his last two fixtures.

Haaland has been remarkably prolific against West Ham for the Citizens, netting nine goals in six appearances against the Hammers. Given such exceptional form, we are supporting the sublime forward to extend his astonishing record with a further goal.

North London Receives Merseyside

Hugo Ekitike enjoyed a blistering start to life at Liverpool before suffering a barren period throughout October and November, but the French forward has returned goalscoring ways in December.

A brace against Leeds United was succeeded by yet another brace in Liverpool's dominant 2-0 victory over Brighton & Hove Albion, blessing the striker with four goals in his last two English Premier League outings.

As Liverpool are prepared to take on a Tottenham Hotspur side that have been notably poor at home—taking just eight points from eight home league games, while they have also leaked a troubling 21 goals in just 16 EPL fixtures—we are anticipating the Reds to have abundant attacking success.

Combined with the striking prowess of Ekitike, we are backing the striker to deliver once more in this one.

Aston Villa vs Manchester United

Aston Villa have lost just one of their last 32 fixtures at Villa Park across all competitions, while they have also won all of their last nine contests in all competitions, blessing them with plenty of momentum as they ready themselves to face an extremely erratic Manchester United team.

While the Red Devils have lost just one of their last 10 matches, Ruben Amorim's side have claimed only two of their last seven EPL encounters, and they are heading into this one off the back of a wild 4-4 draw with Bournemouth—underlining their structural weaknesses.

While Manchester United are expected to give Aston Villa a stern test, especially in defence as the Red Devils possess the joint-second best attack in the league with 30 goals accumulated, we believe Aston Villa will weather the storm and deliver the victory.
