Bournemouth vs Manchester United Predictions

Despite being a side many had assumed would be battling relegation right now, Bournemouth can enjoy the final two games of their season knowing they are safe. The eight point gap between themselves and Leeds in 18th is one that will see them playing Premier League football next year, and they will want to round off the campaign with a big scalp, something Manchester United need to be wary of. 

Manchester United arrive for this one on the back of a much-needed win over Wolves that put an end to a two-game losing run. Their battle for a top-four spot is still very much in their own hands as they have a game in hand and lead Liverpool in fifth by a point. However, a slip up here could see Liverpool move above United. The away side know this is a must-win. 

Liverpool vs Aston Villa Predictions

Liverpool have been superb of late, with their excellent run seeing them fly up the table. Jurgen Klopp's men are now just a single point behind Newcastle in third and Manchester United in fourth. A win in this one could see Liverpool go as high as third in the table if results go their way, and they are suddenly real contenders to play in Europe's top competition next year. 

Aston Villa have been fantastic all year, and they boast a hefty 26-point lead over Leeds in 18th and the final relegation spot. Their 2-1 win over Tottenham in their last game shows they are a side that can beat the best, and they could have a real say in the top-four race with a win in this one. However, with Liverpool superb of late, Villa will need to be at their best to win this one. 

Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal Predictions

Nottingham Forest
Draw
Arsenal
17.94%20.92%61.14%

Nottingham Forest have been doing everything they can in recent weeks to ensure they extend their stay in the Premier League. A thrilling 4-3 win over Southampton was followed by a battling 2-2 draw with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. Unbeaten in their last two, Forest will feel they have what it takes to trouble a stumbling Arsenal side. 

Arsenal have surely now bowed out of the title race, with a four-point gap between themselves and Manchester City at the top with two games left to come one that is too big to bridge. Arsenal have struggled of late, and their 3-0 humiliation at the hands of Brighton in their last game was one that decided the title race. Arsenal will at least want to force City to have to win in their match, but they may struggle against a stubborn Forest. 

West Ham vs Leeds Predictions

West Ham
Draw
Leeds
77.70%14.01%8.29%

West Ham can secure their place in the Premier League with a point in this one as they host 18th-placed Leeds at the weekend. The Hammers are six points above their opponents, meaning a win here could consign Leeds to their fate if Nottingham Forest get a point or more and Everton win their game. 

Leeds know they have to get a point at least from this one and hope those above them lose. The away side have been poor all season and it is no surprise that they are in the position they are in. Winning this one could see them move as high as 16th in what has been an incredibly tight relegation battle, but they will likely struggle on the road. 

Manchester City vs Chelsea Predictions

Manchester City
Draw
Chelsea
75.40%15.32%9.28%

Manchester City have been brilliant of late, and they are fully deserving of their lead at the summit of the table. The four-point lead they boast over Arsenal could be enough to see them lift the title before they play Chelsea at the weekend if the Gunners lose to Forest. Regardless of Arsenal's result, City will be fancied to secure the title this weekend as they take on a Chelsea side that have been woeful this season.

The Blues arrive for this one knowing that the title, Champions League football and even a Europa League spot are a long, long way above them. The 43 points they have picked up means they sit below Fulham, Brentford and Aston Villa in the table, while they have picked up just over half of City's total points tally (85).
