Premier League 2023/24 Gameweek 26: Preview and Betting Tips

Gameweek 26 of the Premier League is upon us, and we look at some of the potential outcomes from this week’s thrilling battles, including the one between Arsenal and Newcastle United.

Aston Villa vs Nottingham Forest

Aston Villa will host Nottingham Forest in the Premier League this weekend, and they will look to build on the recent win over Fulham and strengthen their position in the top four.

Nottingham Forest are 16th, and they will look to steer clear of the relegation zone with a win away from home. They come into this game on the back of an impressive victory against West Ham United. Aston Villa have an impressive head-to-head record against Nottingham Forest, and they are unbeaten in five of their last six meetings against the away side.

They are the better team on paper and Unai Emery will demand a strong performance from his players. 21 goals have been scored in the last six matches between these two teams, and this is likely to be another high-scoring contest. Both teams will look to pick up all three points and this will be an open game with a fair few chances.

Probable Bet: Over 2.5 goals

Brighton & Hove Albion vs Everton

Brighton & Hove Albion host Everton in the Premier League, looking to build on the win over Sheffield United. The home team are currently seventh in the league table but have picked up just two wins from the last six league matches. They will be desperate to put together a winning run and get their season back on track.

Meanwhile, Everton are going through a rough patch. The Toffees are 17th in the table, and they are winless in their last six league matches. It remains to be seen whether they can bounce back strongly.

Both teams will fight for the three points, and this is likely to be an open game. The last six meetings between these two teams have seen a total of 20 goals scored. In addition, both teams have scored in the last four clashes between them. Another high-scoring contest is on the cards.

Probable Bet: Both teams to score

Crystal Palace vs Burnley

Crystal Palace host Burnley in the Premier League this weekend, and they will look to get their stuttering campaign back on track. The Eagles are winless in four of their last five league matches, and they are under pressure to turn things around.

New manager Oliver Glasner is expected to delivered results, and it remains to be seen whether Crystal Palace can pile further misery on Burnley. The away side on 19th in the league table, with four defeats and two draws in their last six league matches. They are going through a dismal run of form and could struggle here.

Burnley have an impressive head-to-head record against Palace, and they are unbeaten in five of their last six meetings against the London club. However, this will be a difficult outing for them on current form. The away side have conceded at least twice in six of their last seven league matches, and Palace should be able to get back to winning ways here.

Probable Bet: Crystal Palace win or draw

Manchester United vs Fulham

Manchester United host Fulham in the Premier League this weekend, looking to boost their chances of a top four finish with a win. The Red Devils are on a four-match winning run in the Premier League, and they will be full of confidence getting into this game.

Fulham are winless in four of their last six league games, and they will be the underdogs. The Red Devils have picked up 14 wins from their last 16 home games against Fulham, and they should be able to grind out all three points.

Probable Bet: Manchester United to win

Bournemouth vs Manchester City

Bournemouth host Manchester City at the Etihad in a Premier League game, and the Cherries will look to end their winless run with a positive result here. Meanwhile, the visitors are in formidable form, with five wins and a draw from the last six league games.

The reigning champions have picked up six wins from the last six meetings against Bournemouth, and they will be the favourites year. Manchester City have won their last 14 matches against Bournemouth in all competitions, and they have a formidable scoring record against the Cherries as well. This is likely to be a comprehensive victory for Manchester City away from home.

Probable Bet: Manchester City to win

They are eighth in the league table and they look to push for European qualification. It remains to be seen whether they can pull off an upset here. Arsenal have kept a clean sheet in their last eight home matches against Newcastle in all competitions, and the Gunners will be the favourites to grind out all three points.

Probable Bet: Arsenal to win

Wolves vs Sheffield United

This will be a difficult outing for them, and their poor defensive record could see them drop more points here. Sheffield United have conceded at least twice in six of their last seven league matches, and Wolves should be able to grind out a win.
