    Our GOAL6 prediction

    EVERTON 0-2 ARSENAL

    The return of Bukayo Saka has given Arsenal a significant shot in the arm for the final weeks of the season and as much as Liverpool are too far out in front in the title race, Mikel Arteta will demand concentration and consistency until the very end. They'll have one eye on Tuesday's Champions League blockbuster against Real Madrid, of course, but they'll get the job done here, with Everton winless since mid-February.

    Our GOAL6 prediction

    ASTON VILLA 2-1 NOTT'M FOREST

    Villa have hit top form at the perfect time, with Unai Emery deserving huge credit for the way his side have navigated progress in the league, FA Cup and in Europe as well. Marcus Rashford and Marco Asensio have been inspired January signings and they'll look to make the difference once again when high-flying Forest make the short trip across the Midlands. Villa win, just.

    Brentford: L W L D W

    Chelsea: W L W W W

    Our GOAL6 prediction

    BRENTFORD 1-1 CHELSEA

    Thomas Frank will undoubtedly be ramming home that Brentford still have a very decent chance of securing European football for next season, especially given the recent struggles of those around them. As much as they've been inconsistent, Chelsea have been just as vulnerable to a wobble, and we're expecting both sides to cancel each other out at the Gtech.

    Our GOAL6 prediction

    FULHAM 1-2 LIVERPOOL

    The title's getting ever-closer. Liverpool need just 13 more points to guarantee the Premier League trophy being in their grasp and with no other distractions from now until the end of the season, you'd expect them to get the job done sooner rather than later. Mohamed Salah's due a goal, having blanked across his last three games for the Reds, and we expect that mini-drought to be over come early Sunday evening.

    Our GOAL6 prediction

    TOTTENHAM 2-0 SOUTHAMPTON

    Talk of Andoni Iraola, and others, replacing him will not have pleased Ange Postecoglou but, as disappointing as Tottenham have been in 2024-25, they have some winnable fixtures over the final weeks of the season, starting with a home clash with doomed Southampton. Winning the Europa League is significantly more important than league position now, but Spurs will nonetheless want a convincing win to take into Thursday's tie with Frankfurt.

    Our GOAL6 prediction

    MAN UTD 2-2 MAN CITY

    Has there ever been a Manchester derby with less riding on it? In fairness to City, they've still got a top-four finish within reach but for United, there's been no respite in the league, with the Europa League the clear priority between now and the end of a turbulent 2024-25. Still, there should be all the usual derby fireworks, with both sides' frustrations at their struggles likely to stoke that, and we envisage an entertaining draw at Old Trafford.
