big game. we need to win the next 3 to cover the debacle v city 10 points for 12 in the block is required. This one is one of those games you just can't afford to do anything but win as they are going to lose to arsneal and city.
I think we should expect: Arsenal to win v wolves at home. It might be tight as o'neill has done well but arsenal should win it. Newcastle to beat man utd. City to annihilate spurs (who have 10 injuries now) Villa to beat bournemouth away - might be tough after europa but they ought to win this. Cheslea and brighton to draw god only knows really If we win then 1. Arsenal 33 2. city 32 3 LFC 31 4. Villa 31 5. Spurs 26 6. Newcastle 26 7. Man utd 24 8. brighton 23 This will mean a gap between 4h and 5th will emerge again but we will be either racing for 1st or 4th and I'd rather be forgetting about 5th placed spurs and newcastle. Its really really important we take these 3 points. elsewhere the cheats play forest away and a win will only mean they might get within 2 points of safety. (if luton lose as expected.) its a real relegation 6 point this one.
CHRIS SUTTON HAS GONE FOR A COMFORTABLE HOME WIN 3 :1 Liverpool v Fulham (14:00) Fulham got a good win against Wolves on Monday, helped by a couple of big decisions going their way. They will need some more good fortune to get anything at Anfield, and I really don't see that happening. Liverpool picked up an important point at Etihad Stadium last weekend but all three are needed here. The Reds are without goalkeeper Alisson and Diogo Jota but they should be able to cope without them. I fancy Mohamed Salah to score, and Jurgen Klopp's side to win comfortably. Sutton's prediction: 3-0 Claudio's prediction: 0-1 JONES KNOWS BEST HAS GONE FOR HOME WIN TOO. Liverpool vs Fulham, Sunday 2pm please log in to view this image This might be a case of missing the wedding and attending the funeral but after raving about Trent Alexander-Arnold's goalscoring and shots prices for most of this season it would be rude not to bring to attention his prices this weekend with his confidence likely flowing after his first goal of the season at Manchester City. please log in to view this image Image:Liverpool's Trent Alexander-Arnold celebrates after scoring It's time Alexander-Arnold upped his strike-rate in front of goal. Since undergoing the tactical tweak to play him more centrally, the England man has only scored twice in 22 appearances - a disappointing return of a player with his undoubted quality playing in such an attack-minded side. However, that goal at the Etihad should spark his already spiking shot numbers - he's had 10 in his last five games. So, the 4/6 with Sky Bet for him to register two or more shots looks a very solid play and the 13/2 anytime price is also worth a look in what looks a routine home win for Jurgen Klopp's men. SCORE PREDICTION: 3-0
