Round 6 Results 25/26
2 - 1
We Predicted
Chelsea vs Brighton
Final Score: 1 - 3
The Game Notes: Chelsea at home has felt solid lately and this matchup usually serves up chances, while Brighton have been more open in league play despite big cup wins. Recent meetings between the sides tend to be lively, and with Chelsea carrying a bit of momentum from midweek - even amid a few absences - a narrow edge at Stamford Bridge makes sense.

We Predicted
Crystal Palace vs Liverpool
Final Score: 2 - 1
The Game Notes: Palace are usually gritty at Selhurst Park, but Liverpool roll in on a strong run and have been tidy away from home, which points to a close game edged by the visitors. Recent meetings lean Liverpool's way and this fixture often has a bit of back-and-forth, so 1–2 feels about right.
3 - 0
We Predicted
Man City vs Burnley
Final Score: 5 - 1
The Game Notes: City at the Etihad has been a tough assignment and this fixture's recent history is heavily one-way, with the hosts routinely winning it by multiple goals. Burnley have been competitive but low-scoring against the league's top sides lately, so a comfortable home win without much drama is what we've predicted.
0 - 1
We Predicted
Nottingham Forest vs Sunderland
Final Score: 0 - 1
The Game Notes: Forest host Sunderland at the City Ground right after a midweek European away night, and their home form has been a bit up-and-down, while the visitors have made a tidy start on their top-flight return - so we can see the newcomers nicking it by a single goal. It's a bold call, but one we feel is justified given recent form and the rhythm both sides are in!
1 - 1
We Predicted
Aston Villa vs Fulham
Final Score: 3 - 1
The Game Notes: Villa got a timely midweek lift in Europe, but their league start has been sluggish and they've struggled to find a spark at Villa Park. Fulham have opened solidly and look organised on the road, so a tight game that ends level feels about right.
1 - 1
We Predicted
Newcastle vs Arsenal
Final Score: 1 - 2
The Game Notes: St James' Park should be lively: Newcastle took a lift from a midweek cup win but their league form has been uneven, while Arsenal have started near the top and are generally sturdy on the road. With the hosts typically competitive at home and the visitors hard to put away, a 1–1 draw feels about right.
