Gameweek 38 of the 2025/26 Premier League season is upon us, and we look at some of the potential outcomes from this week’s thrilling battles.
Burnley vs Wolves
Burnley will take on Wolves in the Premier League on Sunday, and both teams have been relegated from the top flight. They have nothing to play for, and they will look to salvage some pride and give the fans something to cheer about. Both teams have been quite poor defensively, having conceded 74 and 67 goals in the Premier League, respectively.
This is likely to be another open game with plenty of chances. Both teams are likely to get on the scoresheet, and a high-scoring game is on the cards. The last time these two sides met, Burnley picked up a 3-2 win away from home. They will look to complete a league double over Wolves this week.
Probable Bet: Over 2.5 goals
Crystal Palace vs Arsenal
Crystal Palace will take on Arsenal in the Premier League this weekend, and they have nothing to play for. The South London outfit will be focused on the upcoming UEFA Europa Conference League final. It is highly likely that they will rest key players for this game.
On the other hand, Arsenal have wrapped up the Premier League title, and they could be lacking in motivation as well. On paper, the Gunners are the better team, and it remains to be seen whether they can grind out a positive result here. They are unbeaten in the last six matches against the Eagles, and a double chance on them would be ideal.
Probable Bet: Arsenal win or draw
Fulham vs Newcastle United
Fulham will take on Newcastle United in the Premier League on Sunday, and they will look to push for a place in the top half. The Cottagers have been quite inconsistent in recent weeks, and they have picked up just one win from the last six Premier League games.
Newcastle United have bounced back after a disappointing run of form, and they have picked up two wins and a draw from the last three league matches. Both teams are level on points, and they will fancy their chances against each other.
Meanwhile, 16 goals have been scored in the last six meetings between the two teams. Both teams have managed to get on the scoresheet in each of the last four meetings as well. This is likely to be another high-scoring game, and both sides are likely to get on the scoresheet again.
Probable Bet: Both teams to score/ Over 2.5 goals
Liverpool vs Brentford

Manchester City vs Aston Villa
Manchester City will host Aston Villa in the Premier League on Sunday, and they have nothing to play for. The Citizens have lost the Premier League title to Arsenal, and they will now look to finish the season strongly. This is the last match for Pep Guardiola as the Manchester City manager, and the players will look to give him the send-off he deserves.
On the other hand, Aston Villa will have secured Champions League qualification for the upcoming campaign, and they have won the UEFA Europa League as well. The visitors will be lacking in motivation in this game, and the players might struggle to produce a strong display. A home win could be on the cards here.
Probable Bet: Man City win
Nottingham Forest vs Bournemouth

Meanwhile, Bournemouth have picked up four wins and two draws from the last six Premier League games.

Sunderland picked up a win over Chelsea away from home earlier this season, and they will fancy their chances here. Meanwhile, 23 goals have been scored in the last six matches between these two teams, and another high-scoring contest is on the cards.
Probable Bet: Over 2.5 goals
Tottenham Hotspur vs Everton
