Liverpool continues to extend the gap in the race for the title as we begin to draw near to the end of the season. So, what should punters select on matchday 27 in the EPL? Find out from my expert picks below.

Crystal Palace vs Aston Villa
The last time Aston Villa defeated Crystal Palace in the league was in 2023, therefore, Unai Emery's men will be looking to change that trend in this game. I reckon that this game is going to be very tricky, therefore, I am advising punters to bet on both teams to score as this market has produced goals at both ends of the pitch three times out of the last five meetings between these two clubs.
Godwin Odiko's match outcome prediction: Both teams to score
Godwin Odiko's correct score prediction: Crystal Palace 1-1 Aston Villa
Brighton vs Bournemouth
I am going to advise punters to stake on Brighton to win or draw here. I said so because our of the last five meetings between these two sides, Brighton have won four. And Brighton are currently on a decent form - having won comfortably their last three matches in all competitions. Bournemouth will struggle at the home of Brighton here.

Wolves vs Fulham
This is a difficult game to call as both teams have been very inconsistent in recent games. However, Wolves have been the dominant team in recent meetings between the two teams; having won the last two league games between the two sides. I am not too confident with my pick here but I think both teams will score here as the two sides struggle to keep clean sheet in their recent games.

Chelsea vs Southampton
If Chelsea can't win this game then I don't know which other game in the league they can win. This game presents Chelsea with an opportunity to leapfrog Manchester City into fourth position pending the outcome of Manchester City's game vs Tottenham on Wednesday. So I am going for a Chelsea win even though Southampton won on their last visit to Stamford bridge.

Godwin Odiko's correct score prediction: Chelsea 3-1 Southampton
Tottenham vs Manchester City
Tottenham went to the Etihad in the first leg of this fixture to whitewash City 4-0. They will be drawing confidence from that performance together with Manchester City's dwindling form. However, I think with City out of the Champions League now, they will be focused on ending the season at least in a Champions League position. So, I think this game will be very entertaining to watch and I am predicting both teams to score with Manchester City the likelier team to win here.

Godwin Odiko's correct score prediction: Tottenham 1-2 Manchester City
Manchester United vs Ipswich
This is a good opportunity for Ruben Amorim and his players to pick up all three points. Ipswich have been very poor so far on their return to the league and I really think they shouldn't be getting anything out of this match if Manchester United give their best here. I am going for a comfortable Manchester United win here.
Godwin Odiko's match outcome prediction: Manchester United to win
Godwin Odiko's correct score prediction: Manchester United 2-0 Ipswich
Forest vs Arsenal
This is a difficult match to call but I think with Arsenal missing key players to injury, Forest might just be licking their lips ahead of this clash. Forest will be looking to solidify their position in the Champions League places on the log, so I think they will give everything here to avoid defeat.
Godwin Odiko's match outcome prediction: Forest to win or draw
Godwin Odiko's correct score prediction: Forest 2-1 Arsenal
Brentford vs Everton
Brentford seem to have rediscovered their form and I think they will either win or draw here. I don't see Thomas Frank's men losing this one at home to Everton even though Everton have been the dominant side in the recent meetings between the two clubs.

Liverpool vs Newcastle
This is an opportunity for Liverpool to further extend their lead on top of the log by defeating Newcastle here. Newcastle can be a very stubborn side to try to win but I think Liverpool playing at home in front of their cheering fans will edge this one. Though, I am predicting a very tight game.

West Ham vs Leicester City
Leicester City have avoided defeat in the previous four league games between the two side - winning three of those games. However, I think they will lose this one - judging by their poor run of form since they returned to the topflight this season. West Ham under new boss Graham Potter look like a side that are rejuvenated after they went to Arsenal last time out to pick up all three points. I think they should be able to win this one in front of their home fans.
