Premier League predictions: Arsenal keep hold of top spot, Chelsea beat Man United

We pick out the winners and losers ahead of the latest round of English top-flight fixtures

TUESDAY - Wolves v Burnley (11.30pm kick-off UAE): Wolves need some points in the bag after managing just one win in five games, and having lost three out of their last four. There was huge relief for Burnley at the weekend when they thumped fellow strugglers Sheffield United 5-0 to secure their second win of the season. Prediction: Wolves 1 Burnley 0. PA

Luton Town v Arsenal (12.15am): Luton were comfortably beaten by Brentford on Saturday, a result that leaves them outside the bottom three by one place and two points. Arsenal's 2-1 win over Wolves means they remain top, two points clear of second-placed Liverpool. Prediction: Luton 0 Arsenal 2. AFP

WEDNESDAY - Brighton v Brentford (11.30pm): Brighton were edged out 3-2 by Chelsea at the weekend and the Seagulls have managed only one win in seven league games. Brentford eased past Luton and sit three places and four points behind eighth-placed Brighton. Prediction: Brighton 2 Brighton 2. Reuters

Crystal Palace v Bournemouth (11.30pm): Palace's draw with West Ham last time out means the Eagles have won once in seven games. After a desperate start to the campaign, Bournemouth have now taken 10 points out of a possible 15 and are six points clear of the relegation zone. Prediction: Palace 1 Bournemouth 1. PA

Fulham v Nottingham Forest (11.30pm): Two teams that will start to look nervously over their shoulders if results don't start to improve soon. Fulham are 14th with three defeats in their last four games while Forest are 15th, having lost four out of the previous five. Prediction: Fulham 3 Forest 2. Getty Images

Sheffield United v Liverpool (11.30pm): The Blades are in a mess after a 5-0 trouncing by Burnley that leaves them bottom of the table and manager Paul Heckingbottom facing the sack. Liverpool needed two late goals to edge out Fulham 3-2 at Anfield and have lost only once all season. Prediction: Sheffield United 1 Liverpool 3. EPA

Aston Villa v Manchester City (12.15am): Villa's superb home form has seen them win 13 on the spin and they lie fourth in the table, a point and a place behind City. Pep Gaurdiola's side have drawn three in a row, scoring and conceding eight goals along the way. Prediction: Villa 1 Man City 2. AFP

Manchester United v Chelsea (12.15am): How United currently sit as high as seventh in the table is something of a mystery after a season where they have yet to record a convincing performance. Chelsea have struggled badly for consistency but showed plenty of fight when beating Brighton with 10 men on Sunday. Prediction: Man United 2 Chelsea 3. PA

THURSDAY - Everton v Newcastle United (11.30pm): Everton secured their first points since their 10-point deduction at the weekend when they won 1-0 at Nottingham Forest. Newcastle winger Anthony Gordon, who scored the winner against Man United at the weekend, is set for a red-hot reception when he returns to his former club. Prediction: Everton 1 Newcastle 2. Reuters

Tottenham Hotspur v West Ham (12.15am): Spurs have just ended a three-game losing streak by drawing 3-3 at Manchester City, thanks to Dejan Kulusevski's 90th-minute header. West Ham have taken seven points out of a possible nine to pull themselves back into the top half of the table. Prediction: Spurs 3 West Ham 2. PA

Having barely had time to draw breath, we are now hurtling straight back into a midweek round of Premier League fixtures.

Last weekend saw goals galore in a manic English top-flight with 38 scored in all, including Burnley hitting five against Sheffield United, Chelsea beating Fulham 3-2, Liverpool edging out Fulham 4-3 and Manchester City drawing 3-3 with Tottenham Hotspur.

It means Arsenal remain in top spot, two points clear of Liverpool in second, with Manchester City and Aston Villa occupying third and fourth, respectively.

Sheffield United are rock bottom after their Burnley humiliation with the Clarets and Everton two points above them separated only by goal difference.

The midweek schedule begins on Tuesday with Wolves against Burnley at Molineux and Luton Town entertaining table-toppers Arsenal at Kenilworth Road.

Wednesday sees Brighton taking on Brentford on the south coast and Crystal Palace playing host to Bournemouth. Fulham are up against Nottingham Forest at Craven Cottage, Sheffield United tackle Liverpool at Bramall Lane, Aston Villa versus Manchester City at Villa Park and Manchester United clash with Chelsea at Old Trafford.

There are two games on Thursday when Everton and Newcastle United meet at Goodison Park, while Spurs take on West Ham United in North London.
