Man Utd vs Burnley
Final Score: 3 - 2
The Game Notes: Old Trafford usually tilts this fixture United’s way, and Burnley seldom leave with more than a point. United’s league start has been patchy (defeat to Arsenal, draw at Fulham) and a midweek cup shock stung, but back at home against a newly returned side that mixed a heavy loss at Spurs with a solid win over Sunderland, a tight 1-0 for the hosts makes sense.

Spurs vs Bournemouth
Final Score: 0 - 1
The Game Notes: Spurs have real momentum after back-to-back clean sheets; 3-0 on opening day and a statement 2-0 away at City - so with home advantage the tilt’s theirs. Bournemouth have shown bite (two at Anfield and a tight win over Wolves), but a midweek cup exit and a mixed recent record in this fixture suggest they may nick one without quite taking anything back. A tidy 2-1 feels right.

Wolves vs Everton
Final Score: 2 - 3
The Game Notes: Molineux tends to keep this one tight - the last meeting here ended level - and Wolves should have a bit of bounce after a midweek cup win that checked their slow league start. Everton arrive steadier with back-to-back clean-sheet wins since the opening-day slip, but they’ve not exactly cut loose away from home yet, so a 1-1 feels about right.

Leeds vs Newcastle
Final Score: 0 - 0
The Game Notes: Elland Road will be lively, but Leeds come in off a heavy defeat at Arsenal and a midweek cup exit on pens after only edging their opener. Newcastle are still chasing a first win, yet a gritty 0-0 at Villa and a last-gasp setback against Liverpool hint they’re organised enough to nick this - and they’ve left Elland Road with points on their last two league visits. A cagey 0-1 away edge fits.

Brighton vs Man City
Final Score: 2 - 1
The Game Notes: Both sides stumbled last weekend, but City’s away form has been stingy for months and they generally handle trips to the Amex, even if Brighton nicked points off them last season. Brighton have started with a draw and a defeat despite creating plenty, while City opened with a big away win before a blip, so a narrow 1-2 to the visitors feels about right.
2 - 1
We Predicted
Liverpool vs Arsenal
Final Score: 1 - 0
The Game Notes: Anfield should tilt it: Liverpool have opened with back-to-back wins - four scored at home then a last-gasp turnaround at Newcastle - and they’re riding a long league scoring streak. Arsenal look sharp with two clean-sheet victories, but trips here are often decided by fine margins, so 2–1 to the hosts feels about right.
