Premier League Gameweek 25 Tips: 19/1 accumulator
The Premier League action comes thick and fast this weekend and we have picked out tips for three games to provide a 19/1 accumulator.
Liverpool's trip to Brentford begins the action at lunchtime on Saturday, while Manchester City's big clash against Chelsea at the Etihad Stadium brings that day's events to a close in the evening.
Sunday's two offerings see Brighton travel to Sheffield United and Luton host Manchester United, with the sole action on Monday coming from Goodison Park as Everton take on Crystal Palace.
Our accumulator focuses on a trio of Saturday matches that all begin at 3pm, these being Fulham v Aston Villa, Newcastle v Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest v West Ham.
Tip 1: Draw in Fulham v Aston Villa @ 11/4
Aston Villa's unexpected title bid has hit the buffers in recent weeks and they head to Craven Cottage with just one win from their last six matches in all competitions - that sole success coming against rock-bottom Sheffield United.
Having been unstoppable at home in their opening 10 matches, the Villans have now lost three in a row in their own backyard and they will be hoping an away outing can bring the best out of them.
Unai Emery's side are unbeaten in their last four road games, but they were held to 0-0 draws in two of these fixtures and they may have to settle for another share of the spoils against Fulham.
Although beating Bournemouth 3-1 last time out, the Cottagers have drawn three of their last five assignments - against Liverpool, Everton and Burnley - and these two sides could cancel each other out on Saturday.
Tip 2: Newcastle to win @ 4/5
Newcastle have started to string a few results together and they head into Saturday's visit of Bournemouth on a four-game unbeaten streak in all competitions.
The Magpies have only turned out at St James' Park twice in 2024, narrowly losing 3-2 Manchester City before the rollercoaster 4-4 draw against Luton, but they have been generally strong at home with 25 of their 36 points so far this season coming on Tyneside.
Eddie Howe's side now take on a Bournemouth outfit that have picked up just two points from the last 15 on offer and are without a win in their last three away matches in the league, conceding seven goals in the process.
Andoni Iraola’s side are also without a win in their last five league fixtures, with their two victories in 2024 coming in the FA Cup against Championship sides QPR and Swansea.
Bournemouth’s recent trips to St James’ Park have also been challenging ones, as they have lost three and drawn one on their last four visits.
Tip 3: Over 3.5 goals in Nottingham Forest v West Ham @ 2/1
Relegation-threatened Nottingham Forest will be eyeing a crucial three points when they welcome West Ham to the City Ground on Saturday afternoon.
Neither side are in sparkling form, with Forest winless in their last four league matches and West Ham failing to taste success in their last five top-flight assignments, so the play here is the goal market.
Since Nuno Espirito Santo took charge of Forest, there have been a combined 38 goals in 11 matches, with over 3.5 landing in six of those.
West Ham arrive on the back of a 6-0 hammering at the hands of Arsenal, that coming after a 3-0 loss to Manchester United, and those are just two of several heavy defeats they have suffered.
The Hammers have been beaten 5-0, 3-2, 3-1 and 4-1 away from home in the league this season, while they were also thrashed 5-1 by Liverpool in the League Cup.
While West Ham have been defensively poor, they are still a threat at the other end and have failed to score in just two of their 12 away days in the league.
David Moyes will be demanding a response from his side after the Arsenal drubbing and that could produce another high-scoring affair.
Two of the last three meetings between these two at the City Ground have produced over 3.5 goals, while the most recent clashes at the London Stadium have seen West Ham run out 3-2 and 4-0 winners against Forest.
