Godwin Odiko's EPL MD 17 Predictions

Welcome to my preview of all matches slated to take place in the EPL this weekend. So, with Tottenham set to entertain Liverpool in what is the biggest match of the weekend, who will I be tipping to come out on top? Kindly read further to find out...



Aston Villa vs Manchester City 

This is going to be an entertaining game and I expect goals from both ends of the pitch. Both sides are currently inconsistent with City the worst of the two teams. However, if Pep Guardiola wants to lead City to winning ways again, then they ought to be winning this one. I am going to go for Manchester City to win or draw; because I can't imagine City losing again on Saturday.

Godwin Odiko's correct score prediction: Aston Villa 1-2 Manchester City 



Ipswich vs Newcastle 

Everybody will be expecting Newcastle to either win or draw this one judging by the current form of the two teams and also by their respective status in the league. I am also going to go with the majority and bank on Newcastle to either win or draw this one. But I won't be shocked if Ipswich come up with a surprise on Saturday evening.

West Ham vs Brighton 

The last time both teams met it ended in a goalless draw. I am going to tip this game to also result in a draw, albeit, not goalless. Both sides need this game to recover from their current poor run of form. So I think it's going to be close on Saturday evening.

Godwin Odiko's match outcome prediction: Straight draw 

Godwin Odiko's correct score prediction:West Ham 2-2 Brighton 



Brentford vs Forest

This is also going to be a very close game and entertaining as well. I expect the game to be end-to-end stuff. However, Brentford are very solid at home and I think they should be able to get a point at least here.

Crystal Palace vs Arsenal 

I expect Arsenal to win here if they are serious about their title pursuit. They defeated Crystal Palace in midweek in the Carabao Cup, but, it was a close contest. I expect this one to be close again but Arsenal should be able to edge it.

Godwin Odiko's correct score prediction: Crystal Palace 0-1 Arsenal 



Manchester United vs Bournemouth

Manchester United should find a way to win this one if they desire to finish in the top four at the end of the season. I know Bournemouth have recently peaked in form but a team as big as Manchester United should be able to conquer any team at Old Trafford. It's going to be a very difficult one for Ruben Amorim's men but I am going to back them to find a way to get the three maximum points from the clash.

Godwin Odiko's correct score prediction: Manchester United 3-1 Bournemouth 



 Everton vs Chelsea 

Chelsea are in a very deadly form at the moment and that's why I don't envy Everton facing them at this moment. Everton surprised everyone by going to Arsenal last time out to pick a point but I don't see them surviving the Blues on Sunday.

Godwin Odiko's match outcome prediction: Chelsea to win

Godwin Odiko's correct score prediction: Everton 1-3 Chelsea 



Leicester vs Wolves 

Wolves have lost all their previous four league games and I see Leicester inflicting more injury on Wolves here on Sunday evening. Leicester need to win this one because it seems Wolves are dishing out Christmas gift to everyone now. I am going to back Van Nistelrooy's charges to either win or draw this one.

Godwin Odiko's correct score prediction: Leicester 2-1 Wolves


Fulham vs Southampton 

Southampton are another team also on Christmas bonanza. I expect Fulham to capitalize on Southampton's poor form and get all three points here.

Godwin Odiko's match outcome prediction: Fulham to win

Godwin Odiko's correct score prediction: Fulham 2-0 Southampton 



Tottenham vs Liverpool 

This is the biggest game of the weekend and I really hope it doesn't disappoints. Liverpool are currently untouchable and unbeatable and I think they will go the Spurs with that confidence brimming all over. Tottenham can be unpredictable but I don't think they can defeat Liverpool in this one. I am going to back Liverpool to win or draw here.
