English Premier League (EPL) Predictions for This Week 17

Premier League predictions for this week 17

Manchester City vs Aston Villa

• Manchester City is hanging onto its hopes of a Champions League spot after a season full of near-misses and recoveries. They’re now just inside the top four and will be doing everything they can to hold on.

• Aston Villa is hanging on to its mid-table position despite the fatigue that comes with juggling domestic and European duties. They’re still punching well above their weight, especially with five straight wins in their last five games.

• In their last head-to-head, Aston Villa managed to get the upper hand over Manchester City in a 2-1 display of clinical finishing — while both sides had six shots on target, it was ultimately the Villans who ultimately made theirs count the most.

• Our Manchester City vs Aston Villa predictions for this week 17 show a 2-1 or 1-0 win for Manchester City.

Arsenal vs Crystal Palace

• Arsenal are still fighting hard despite another title-less campaign now becoming a near certainty. In their last five games, they’ve maintained their trademark consistency, delivering three wins against two draws with zero defeats.

• Crystal Palace looked like they were about to deliver somewhat of a resurgence after pulling off an unbeaten streak at one point. Unfortunately, two recent losses have cast some doubt over whether they can keep climbing toward the top ten.

• In their last head-to-head, Arsenal destroyed Palace 5-1 after converting a whopping five out of six shots on goal in a ruthless display of near-perfect finishing.

• Our Arsenal vs Crystal Palace predictions for this week 17 show a 3-0 or 4-1 win for Arsenal.

Chelsea vs Everton

• Chelsea is hanging out on the edge of the top four after their early momentum saw them slip well outside at one point. With just one point separating them from the top four, a Champions League berth is still definitely on the cards.

• Everton can finally breathe a little easier as they move out of survival mode. They’re now sitting safely in the bottom end of the mid table after dodging a possible relegation threat earlier in the season.

• In their last head-to-head, Chelsea and Everton duked it out in a goalless 0-0 draw after Everton admirably defended against a Blues side that held 75% of the ball possession while also outpassing their opponents with 89% accuracy.

• Our Chelsea vs Everton predictions for this week 17 show a 2-1 win for Chelsea.

Brighton vs West Ham

• Brighton was putting up a solid, steady performance in mid-table. However, their last five games have been a serious disappointment, with three losses and just two draws offsetting the carnage.

• West Ham’s season has been little more than a slow-motion nosedive after they failed to live up to early hopes. With that said, they’ve managed to pull out of it just above the relegation zone, where they will likely finish the season.

• In their last head-to-head, Brighton and West Ham netted a goal each to bring the game to a 1-1 draw. Both teams scored their respective goal from just a handful of shots on goal, and both struggled to convert their possession into pressure.

• Our Brighton vs West Ham predictions for this week 17 show a 2-1 or 1-0 win for Brighton.

Newcastle vs Ipswich

• Newcastle is peaking at just the right time. They’re now firmly in the Champions League mix (#3 on the table), even if it’s far from a certainty at this point. With just two point between them and #5-#7, they’ll need to stay consistent.

• Ipswich have clearly been completely overwhelmed by the demands of the Premier League. They’re now deep into the relegation zone with a massive 15 point gap guaranteeing that that’s where they’ll end the season.

• In their last head-to-head, Newcastle thrashed Ipswich 4-0 thanks in no small part to an Alexander Isak hat trick, along with total dominance in possession which they used to attack with seven shots on target.

• Our Newcastle vs Ipswich predictions for this week 17 show a 3-0 win for Newcastle.

Southampton vs Fulham

• Southampton has had one of the worst seasons of any Premier League club in recent history. With just two wins in 33 games and a massive 26 losses, they’re almost guaranteed to receive the wooden spoon once this season draws to a close.

• Fulham has slipped out of the European hunt after a couple of back-to-back losses saw them slip into 9th place as a large points gap opened between them and the top four.

• In their last head-to-head, Southampton somehow managed to put up a solid defensive effort, which, combined with a bit of luck, allowed them to hold Fulham to a frustrating 0-0 draw, despite being out-possessed and out-passed.

• Our Southampton vs Fulham predictions for this week 17 show a 0-1 win for Fulham.

Wolves vs Leicester City

• Wolves have made a seemingly miraculous turnaround after delivering five back-to-back wins in their last five games (almost half their wins for the entire season!) to move well clear of the relegation zone.

• Leicester City has been one of the more disastrous teams in the EPL this season. With 23 losses in 33 games and no signs of life in their last five, there’s little hope we’ll be seeing much from them for the rest of the season.

• In their last head-to-head, Wolves destroyed Leicester with a convincing 3-0 scoreline after delivering three quick first-half goals before putting up a stonewall defense in the second half to keep Leicester goalless.

• Our Wolves vs Leicester City predictions for this week 17 show a 2-0 or 3-1 win for Wolves.

Bournemouth vs Manchester United

• Bournemouth was looking like it was headed for a disappointing end to the season, but a recent win and a handful of draws seems to have helped steady their course and might just be enough to help them towards a respectable finish.

• Manchester United has had a woeful season that’s a long way from the glory of their former selves. It doesn’t look like much is going to change either with three losses, a draw, and just a single win in their last five.

• In their last head-to-head, Bournemouth delivered a convincing victory over United with 3-0 scoreline that saw them scoring three goals from just five shots on target, despite only having 40% of the possession.

• Our Bournemouth vs Manchester United predictions for this week 17 show a 2-0 win for Bournemouth.

Liverpool vs Tottenham

• Liverpool is flying high at the top and, at this stage, are more or less guaranteed to walk away from this season with the Premier League title.

• Tottenham is a shadow of their former selves with performances that suggest they’re luck to even survive this season. In their last five they’ve only delivered a single win against three losses and a draw.

• In their last head-to-head, Liverpool destroyed the Spurs in a 4-0 humiliation in an EFL Cup semi-final game. They did this while dominating 64% of the possession and taking ten shots on goal while Tottenham failed to get even a single shot in.

• Our Liverpool vs Tottenham predictions for this week 17 show a 3-1 or 3-0 win for Liverpool.

Nottingham Forest vs Brentford

• Nottingham Forest are feeling the heat after slipping from third place into sixth. They’re still in the running for a Euro berth but will have to fight tooth and nail to the finish line if they’re going to get it.

• Brentford is puttering alon with an even mix of wins and losses. While nothing spectacular, they’ve at least scraped together enough points to stay afloat in the mid pack.

• In their last head-to-head, Nottingham Forest beat out Brentford in a clean sheet 2-0 win, despite only holding 35% of the possession. Ultimately, it was their ability to capitalize on their few chances and Brentford’s struggles to do anything productive with the ball that turned the game.

• Our Nottingham Forest vs Brentford predictions for this week 17 show a 2-0 win for Nottingham Forest.
