The Magpies Host the Blues

Newcastle United have responded emphatically from the bitter derby reverse to Sunderland, claiming a pulsating 2-1 conquest over Fulham to progress into the EFL Cup semi-finals during midweek, via Lewis Miley's eleventh-hour winner.

The Geordie faithful will be aiming to build upon that momentum with three crucial points against the Blues, and a homecoming to their fortress will assuredly boost their belief. After all: they have won five, drawn one and lost merely two of their eight home EPL matches, while they have also won all of their last four home meetings with Chelsea.

While Chelsea are strong on the road this term, amassing the joint-second best points tally away from home in the league (a robust return), the Blues have been underwhelming in recent weeks. With an arduous trip to St James' Park, we are backing the home side to emerge victorious.

Manchester City vs West Ham United

The striking sensation's phenomenal goalscoring legacy since arriving at Manchester City has maintained its trajectory this season, with the striker already netting 23 goals in 22 games across all competitions, featuring delivering three in his last two fixtures.

Haaland has been particularly lethal against West Ham for Pep Guardiola's side, scoring nine goals in six appearances against the Hammers. Given such remarkable form, we are supporting the sublime forward to continue his remarkable record with a further goal.

Spurs Host the Reds

Hugo Ekitike made a stunning start to life at Liverpool before experiencing a barren period throughout October and November, but the French forward has returned his clinical ways in December.

A brace against Leeds United was succeeded by a further brace in Liverpool's comprehensive 2-0 victory over Brighton & Hove Albion, gifting the striker with four goals in his last two English Premier League appearances.

As Liverpool are prepared to take on a Tottenham Hotspur side that have been particularly underwhelming at home—taking just eight points from eight home league games, while they have also leaked a alarming 21 times in just 16 EPL matches—we are backing the Reds to have plenty of attacking success.

Given the clinical touch of Ekitike, we are supporting the striker to find the net in this one.

Villa Park Hosts the Red Devils

Unai Emery's side have lost merely one of their last 32 encounters at Villa Park across all competitions, while they have also won all of their last nine games in all competitions, leaving them with plenty of momentum as they prepare to face an notably inconsistent Manchester United team.

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

While Manchester United are expected to give Aston Villa a stern test, particularly in defence as the Red Devils boast the joint-second best attack in the league with 30 goals registered, we expect Aston Villa will stand resolute and secure the victory.
