Everton v Liverpool, Monday, KO midnight: Think back just a couple of weeks and it would have taken a brave soul to have predicted the seemingly unstoppable Liverpool express would come off the rails in such spectacular fashion. Four defeats in five games, undefeated league record gone, out the FA Cup, Champions League reign over ... surely now they cannot lose their first Merseyside derby since 2010? Judging by Everton's 4-0 battering at Chelsea last week, you would think not. But then, these are strange days... EPA. PREDICTION: Everton 1 Liverpool 2
Watford v Leicester City, Saturday, KO 4.30pm: The battle at the bottom of the league is growing tenser by the week with only one point separating 15th place from the relegation zone. Watford sit one place above the drop zone, but only on goal difference, and Nigel Pearson needs striker and captain Troy Deeney to continue his scoring touch. The Hornets have failed to find the target in 13 league games this season, a figure that has to improve if they want to stay up. Leicester had no such problems last week when they thrashed Aston Villa 4-0. Getty. PREDICTION: Watford 1 Leicester City 3
Bournemouth v Crystal Palace, Saturday, KO 7pm: Eddie Howe's Bournemouth side have certainly shown some fight in their last two matches - narrowly losing 2-1 at champions-elect Liverpool and drawing 2-2 at home to Chelsea. But one point from their last four matches is dire form that will see them plying their trade in the Championship next season. And Palace are awkward customers who have won their last three games 1-0 to ease their own relegation fears. The Cherries' winless streak to go on. EPA. PREDICTION: Bournemouth 1 Crystal Palace 1
Manchester City v Burnley, Saturday, KO 7pm: After his derby horror show against Manchester United last week, the usually reliable City goalkeeper Ederson will be hoping to resume normal service at the Etihad this weekend. It would be fair to suspect that Clarets keeper Nick Pope will be the busier between the sticks and if City - with the wounds from Old Trafford still raw - score early, it could be a battering for Burnley Getty. PREDICTION: Manchester City 4 Burnley 1
Newcastle United v Sheffield United, Saturday, KO 7pm: Newcastle winger Allan Saint-Maximin is one of those players who seems to have no idea what he is going to do next with the ball, so what hope for defenders? The Frenchman scored a vital winner against Southampton last week that took the Magpies eight points clear of the relegation zone. This weekend, he will need to find his way past the second meanest defence in the top-flight as the Blades have conceded just 25 goals this season. Only Liverpool have leaked less. Reuters. PREDICTION: Newcastle 2 Sheffield United 1
Norwich City v Southampton, Saturday, KO 7pm: Time is fast running out for rock-bottom Norwich. The Canaries are six points away from safety, have the worst goal difference by a considerable margin and have one win in six league games. But they were unlucky to lose at high-flying Sheffield United last week, defeated Leicester City the game before and now take on a Southampton side being dragged into the relegation dogfight themselves. The Saints are seven points above the drop zone after losing three of their last four matches and are starting to feel the strain. PA. PREDICTION: Norwich City 1 Southampton 0
Chelsea v Aston Villa, Saturday, KO 9.30pm: A full Premier League debut to remember last week for Chelsea midfielder Billy Gilmour. The 18-year-old Scot slotted straight into the base of the Blues midfielder and was the fulcrum to a 4-0 demolition job over Everton. Frank Lampard's side will be hoping for a repeat showing at Stamford Bride against free-falling Aston Villa. Monday's 4-0 thrashing at Leicester City was Villa's fourth defeat in a row and left manager Dean Smith admitting that his team "have made more individual errors than anyone his season". AFP. PREDICTION: Chelsea 3 Aston Villa 0
West Ham United v Wolves, Sunday, KO 6pm: West Ham might have gone down to a narrow defeat to Arsenal last week, but there was plenty to give Hammers manager David Moyes hope. They looked solid in defence, while the pace and power provided by the likes of Jarrod Bowen and Sebastien Haller meant they looked dangerous on the break. Wolves, meanwhile, were held to a disappointing home draw by West Ham's relegation rivals Brighton and will be hunting for a win to keep alive their top four hopes. Expect goals at the London Stadium. Reuters. PREDICTION: West Ham United 2 Wolves 3
Tottenham v Manchester United, Sunday, KO 8.30pm: Confidence is in short supply at Spurs at the moment. In the space of ten days they have seen their top four hopes all but disappear, have been knocked out the FA Cup and Champions League, and saw January signing Steven Bergwijn added to their hefty injury list. United, on the other hand, are flying after winning the Manchester derby last week which took them to within three points of fourth-placed Chelsea. The misery goes on for Jose Mourinho. Getty. PREDICTION: Tottenham 1 Manchester United 3
