Dimitar Berbatov GW12 Premier League Predictions: Ten correct score tips from 5/1 to 12/1

Dimitar Berbatov and Mauricio Pochettino
Berba doesn't think Pochettino's Chelsea can stop Man City on Sunday

A rare blank week for Dimitar Berbatov last weekend but with a host of big clubs failing to win it was a tricky weekend all round to predict. Our man is back with his 10 Correct Score tips from this weekend's Premier League action...


Wolves v Tottenham - Saturday 12:30

Match Odds 90: Wolves 15/82.88, Draw 2/13.00, Tottenham 1/12.00

It's a big test for Spurs to see how they bounce back from the defeat against Chelsea. I want to believe they can win but Wolves can be a tricky opponent. I believe Spurs can do something really special this year, so I'll go with them to win.

Prediction: 1-2 @ 15/28.50

Arsenal v Burnley - Saturday 15:00

Match Odds 90: Arsenal 1/81.12, Draw 5/16.00, Burnley 14/115.00

Arsenal needs to come back strong after losing to Newcastle, suffering the controversy too which can be mentally tough. Burnley must win because they're in trouble but I think Arsenal have too much talent for them, so I'll say a home win.

Prediction: 3-0 @ 6/17.00

Bet now

Crystal Palace v Everton - Saturday 15:00

Match Odds 90: Crystal Palace 13/102.30, Draw 17/102.70, Everton 15/82.88

Everton bounced back with a win and a draw lately, they have improved recently under Sean Dyche. You must credit Roy Hodgson, he's unbelievable, continuing what he is doing at his age. Both teams have good momentum right now, so I'll go for the draw in this one.

Prediction: 1-1 @ 5/16.00

Bet now

Man Utd v Luton Town - Saturday 15:00

Match Odds 90: Man Utd 1/41.25, Draw 7/24.50, Luton 7/18.00

Man United have to be careful because these teams that are near the bottom of the table have nothing to lose. They'll stay disciplined in defence and then attack you like they did against Liverpool; they can surprise people.

Man United have to keep it simple, be deadly in attack and don't leave it until the 90th minute, and no red cards for Christ sake! It's a must-win for Man United so I'll go with them to win.

Prediction: 2-0 @ 6/17.00

Bet now

Bournemouth v Newcastle - Saturday 17:30

Match Odds 90: Bournemouth 16/54.20, Draw 9/43.25, Newcastle 8/131.61

Bournemouth have major problems. They are in the bottom three and are struggling. Newcastle got an important win against Arsenal but in the Premier League, anything can happen, and they had a tough game in midweek. It's probably a surprise but I'm going to go for a draw here.

Prediction: 1-1 @ 13/27.50

Bet now

Aston Villa v Fulham - Sunday 14:00

Match Odds 90: Aston Villa 1/21.50, Draw 12/53.40, Fulham 4/15.00

How is it, that we've all been praising Aston Villa all season, scoring goals, goals, goals, and then they go and get beat by Nottingham Forest so easily. With all due respect to Forest of course. How can we predict games in the Premier League!?

Villa needs to bounce back after that to show they belong at the top of the table. I'll go for them to win.

Prediction: 3-1 @ 10/111.00

Bet now

Brighton v Sheff United - Sunday 14:00

Match Odds 90: Brighton 1/61.17, Draw 4/15.00, Sheff United 9/110.00

It's about time Sheffield United won last week so credit to them for doing that. It doesn't lower the pressure they're under to survive in the Premier League though, we know it will be tough.

Brighton needs to wake up, man! I love watching them play. They play well but they need to start getting consistent results and they have the quality to do that. It's going to be tough for Sheffield United and I see a Brighton win.

Prediction: 2-0 @ 13/27.50

Bet now

Liverpool v Brentford - Sunday 14:00

Match Odds 90: Liverpool 2/71.29, Draw 3/14.00, Brentford 6/17.00

Brentford can surprise you. They are back to their best when it is so difficult to beat them. Liverpool needs to know that when you aren't up to the standard you will have a difficult time, just like they did vs Luton. They need to correct what they didn't do against Luton, and they are back at Anfield, so I see them winning.

Prediction: 2-0 @ 13/27.50

Bet now

West Ham v Nottm Forest - Sunday 14:00

Match Odds 90: West Ham 8/111.73, Draw 2/13.00, Nottm Forest 11/43.75

West Ham have a tight schedule, but they need to produce something. I know it can be tiring but after three defeats in a row they must do something otherwise there will be a problem for the confidence of the squad.

Nottingham Forest are on the back of that much deserved win over Aston Villa, which show they can surprise people. However, David Moyes' men really need to get back to winning ways, so I'll go for them, just.

Prediction: 1-0 @ 7/18.00

Bet now

Chelsea v Manchester City - Sunday 16:30

Match Odds 90: Chelsea 3/14.00, Draw 21/10, Man City 4/61.67

Chelsea had a win against Spurs but that was against nine men. They must be concentrating at all times against City, because there's a lot of things they have to work on. They let the opposition score too easily, and Man City have some of the best attackers in the world.

If Chelsea don't concentrate, then any Man City player has the ability to score, and I see them winning the game. Chelsea are still finding their feet under Pochettino and that is tough when Man City come to town.

Prediction: 1-3 @ 12/113.00
