Fulham vs Burnley
Final Score: 3 - 1
The Game Notes: Fulham at home against a Burnley side drowning at the bottom - this is about as comfortable a fixture as the Cottagers could ask for. Burnley have lost the plot completely, shipping goals at a horrifying rate on the road and failing to score in back-to-back games. This current Clarets outfit are toothless going forward and broken defensively, conceding more away goals than anyone else in the division. Fulham won't set the world alight, but they've got more than enough to see this off at Craven Cottage. Clean sheet very much on the cards.

Everton vs Chelsea
Final Score: 3 - 0
The Game Notes: Chelsea come into this one in dismal form - three straight defeats and knocked out of the Champions League. However, Everton haven't exactly been convincing at home either, and they've failed to score against Chelsea in their last four meetings at Goodison. Chelsea have the better attacking quality on paper but they'll need to actually show up - and there's real doubt about that right now. Expect a cautious, cagey affair that ends with both sides frustrated. A scrappy draw feels right.

Leeds vs Brentford
Final Score: 0 - 0
The Game Notes: Leeds are in genuine trouble - no goal in their last three league games and desperately short on confidence. The Elland Road crowd will roar them on, but Leeds simply can't find a reliable goal from anywhere right now. Brentford, on the other hand, have been quietly excellent in 2026, losing just once on the road all year. The reverse fixture ended 1-1 at the Gtech, but this feels like a step too far for a Leeds side running on empty.

Newcastle vs Sunderland
Final Score: 1 - 2
The Game Notes: St James' Park hosts the Tyne-Wear derby for the first time in a decade - and what a backdrop it comes against. Newcastle are seething after being hammered by Barcelona in the Champions League, and they'll be desperate to channel that hurt in front of their own fans. Sunderland arrive in worse shape - struggling for creativity up front, short on defensive options, and without a win in three. The two sides drew 1-1 at the Stadium of Light in December, and Sunderland will be competitive, but Newcastle's quality and the roar of 52,000 fans demanding a response should be enough. An emotional, feisty game that the Toon edge.

Spurs vs Nottingham Forest
Final Score: 0 - 3
The Game Notes: This is as bleak as it gets for both clubs. Spurs haven't won a Premier League game all year in 2026 and sit one point above Forest in the table - a genuine six-pointer that neither side looks capable of winning convincingly. Spurs at least showed some fight against Atletico midweek and the home crowd will be hoping that carries over, but Forest have their own issues with minimal goals in them and just one point from their last five. These two have played out some tight, uncomfortable games recently and this looks like another. A draw edges it - but don't expect much.

Arsenal vs Man City
Final Score: 0 - 2
The Game Notes: The big one. Arsenal top the Premier League and are unbeaten in 14 games - this is their Cup final to lose. City arrive at Wembley in crisis mode: dumped out of the Champions League by Real Madrid, inconsistent all season, and unable to keep a clean sheet of late. This is a single-leg cup final so form absolutely matters, and Arsenal's current form is exceptional. City are masters of this competition and their cup run has been clinical, but Arsenal's players will be desperate to deliver silverware and the momentum is firmly with them. City will make it a fight - they always do - but Arsenal should edge a thriller.
