Selected matches:
Newcastle v Chelsea (TNT Sports)
Alli: “It’s a great game to look forward to. Chelsea had a late win in the Carabao Cup against Cardiff in midweek, while Newcastle beat Fulham. It was a big win for Eddie Howe. Is Enzo Maresca feeling a bit of pressure? He made it clear he’s not too happy. I think this will be a tough game for Chelsea. I’m aiming for a home win.”
Prediction: Newcastle 2-1 Chelsea
Fletch: “It’s a team that is good at home playing a team that is good at away. I’m expecting goals in this game and I’m really looking forward to it. Chelsea forward Joao Pedro seems to have scored all his goals away, while Newcastle stars Anthony Gordon and Bruno Guimarães have scored at home. I think it’s going to be a high-scoring game and with that in mind I’m just going to score.”On the Newcastle edge. ”
Prediction: Newcastle 3-2 Chelsea
Aston Villa v Manchester United
Alli: “A great result for Villa! I can’t see anything but a home win in this game. I don’t think it can be overemphasized and I don’t know if it’s too comfortable for them, but if you look at their recent results you can see that Villa are a team in good form. With that in mind, I’m rooting for them to win and continue their great run.”
Prediction: Aston Villa 2-1 Manchester United
Fletch: “This is going to be a good game. Manchester United can score goals but they don’t seem to be able to stop anyone. Villa are playing a really good game at home and I think Unai Emery’s side have too much on their plate.”
Prediction: Aston Villa 3-1 Manchester United
