Round 29 Results 25/26

We Predicted

Man City vs Wolves

Final Score: 2 - 0

The Game Notes: City at the Etihad tend to turn games into one-way traffic, and with Wolves still searching for a first league win on the road this season, it’s a tough spot for them to keep the door shut for 90 minutes. Wolves have looked more stubborn lately and can pinch a moment on the break, but the gap in form and control usually tells - hence a comfy 3–1 home win.

Burnley vs Spurs

Final Score: 2 - 2

The Game Notes: Burnley have made Turf Moor awkward lately, keeping things tight and even taking points off bigger sides, so this doesn’t scream “goal-fest”. Spurs arrive in patchy league form and with a squad that’s been stretched by injuries, which usually points to a scrappy, low-margin away day - but they’ve still got enough about them to nick it 0–1.

Bournemouth vs Liverpool

Final Score: 3 - 2

The Game Notes: Bournemouth can make this a proper game at the Vitality - they’ve been punchy at home lately and usually find a way onto the scoresheet - but they also give up chances, which is risky against a side that’s generally found ways to get over the line even when the league performances have been a bit stop-start. That mix points to a tight Liverpool win, with Bournemouth landing one but not quite having enough to take points.

Crystal Palace vs Chelsea

Final Score: 1 - 3

The Game Notes: Palace have been stuck in low-scoring grinders lately (just two goals in their last five league games), while Chelsea come in off a couple of controlled results and a recent league clean sheet. Add Chelsea’s long-standing good run at Selhurst Park, and a tidy 0–2 away win feels like the way this one lands.

Newcastle vs Aston Villa

Final Score: 0 - 2

The Game Notes: Villa are still right in the title mix and have travelled well enough to make tough away days count, while Newcastle are coming off a hectic run and have had a few league games lately where it’s been hard work to turn control into goals. At St James’ Park it rarely opens up, but Villa’s extra edge in tight moments makes a narrow 1–2 away win feel on the money.

2 - 1

We Predicted

Arsenal vs Man Utd

Final Score: 2 - 3

The Game Notes: Arsenal head back to the Emirates in strong nick and they still haven’t lost a league game at home this season, so you’d expect them to control long spells and carve out chances. United arrive with a real lift after a statement derby win, which should keep it lively, but their away trips have been a bit more up-and-down - that’s why an Arsenal 2–1 feels about right.
