Burnley v Newcastle - Tuesday 19:30

Newcastle's away form has not been good enough; they have just one win away from home in the league all season. The pressure is really on. I have a feeling Eddie may change the system and play both Woltemade and Wissa.

I'm going to go for an away win. Brave to predict that, but I don't like the look of Burnley. If Newcastle are looking for an away fixture, this should be it. 

It would be a terrible result for Newcastle to go there and get beaten given how poor Burnley are, if Newcastle lose, then the noise will get louder for Eddie Howe.

Chelsea v Bournemouth - Tuesday 19:30

I'm only going to go Chelsea because they're at home. They created chances against Villa. Bournemouth, after such a great start, were awful at Brentford. I'm going to go for a Chelsea home win.

Bournemouth could potentially get dragged into the relegation battle. They were really poor at Brentford. That would be a worrying sign. If the same happens at Chelsea, that would be concerning.

Nottingham Forest v Everton - Tuesday 19:30

I thought Forest did well against City. The Everton game against Burnley was awful; I wouldn't want to watch it again. Depending on who is fit for Everton, I'm going to go for a home win for Forest.

This is a big game for them. If Everton go out with something like they did against Burnley, I expect Forest to take the three points. It's a big game for Forest.

West Ham v Brighton - Tuesday 19:30

Brighton offered nothing until the changes at half-time against Arsenal at the weekend. However, this is tough to predict because both teams are in poor form. But I don't like the look of West Ham they had a bit of a bounce when Nuno first arrived but since then it has been poor. I'm going to say a draw.

Arsenal v Aston Villa - Tuesday 20:15

How can you predict this one? Villa with 11 wins on the spin. Arsenal getting results. Villa have took four points off them in the last two games they have played. I'm going to go with a draw again.

It's an unbelievable opportunity for Villa. They'll be full of confidence. It would take a brave man to say Arsenal are definitely going to win. Tough to predict, which is why I'm going to go draw.

Manchester United v Wolves - Tuesday 20:15

Even with the team United will put out with injuries and players at AFCON, I've got to say home win. Wolves showed glimpses at Arsenal and at Anfield that there was a little bit of fight, but I still can't see them doing enough to get anything out of this game.

Crystal Palace v Fulham - Thursday 17:30

Fulham got a great win at West Ham and against Forest in their last two games and they will be full of confidence heading into this game. Palace didn't fill me with confidence yesterday and are now winless in their last five games. I'm going to go draw in this London derby.

Liverpool v Leeds - Thursday 17:30

Leeds were really good away to Sunderland on Sunday and deserved to get something from the game. They scored a brilliant goal. Calvert-Lewin has scored in six games on the spin which is brilliant. But it'll be tougher at Anfield and for that reason I am going to say home win.

Brentford v Tottenham - Thursday 20:00

I was really impressed with Brentford at the weekend. They beat Bournemouth's press and were aggressive. Spurs have a decent away record this season, but because of Brentford's season, I'm actually going to go for a home win. Keith Andrews is doing a brilliant job especially after selling the likes of Mbuemo and Wissa this season and now they are in the top half of the table.

Sunderland v Manchester City - Thursday 20:00, Live on Sky Sports

City will have enough to beat Sunderland in this one. Dan Ballard was out for Sunderland in their game against Leeds, which is a big loss. I know Sunderland have a good home record, but with City's form and players, I'm going to go away win.
