Premier League Predictions: Betting Tips, Team News, Lineups, Injuries

Actions on the turf resume in the English Premier League (EPL) as leaders Manchester City host Nottingham Forest at the Etihad Stadium.

Etihad returns after trashing Crvena zvezda 3-1 in the opening Group G of the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday and no doubt, the Citizens will take that wining mentality as they face Forest this afternoon.

City are yet to concede to defeat after five EPL matches this season, their previous saw the Pep Guardiola boys hammered West Ham 3-1.

No doubt, they won’t leave any stones unturned despite the informed Forest who drew 1-1 Vincent Kompany’s Burnley last weekend.

Forest had a great game against Chelsea the week before the last with a lone goal but the situation will be complex for Forest who will be squaring up against the almighty Erling Haaland on front.

Prediction
Although, both team drew 1-1 last February but City will go through Forest this afternoon convincingly with a 1.19 odds against Forest 17.82 according to the bookmakers.

Lineups: City’s XI: Ederson, Gvardiol, Dias, Akanji, Walker, Nunes, Rodri, Doku, Alvarez, Foden, Haaland

Subs: Moreno, Carson, Phillips, Ake, Grealish, Gomez, Bobb, Lewis

Forest XI: Turner, Aurier, Boly, Niakhate, Mangala, Tavares, Sangare, Aina, Dominguez, Gibbs-White, Awoniyi

Subs: Vlachodimos, Worrall, Kouyate, Wood, Hudson-Odoi, Elange, Yates, Origi, Montiel

Elsewhere, Crystal Palace are currently not in the good shape as expected after losing 3-1 to Aston Villa last week but it is expected the Eagles will scale through Fulham FC this afternoon at Selhurst Park.

Palace are yet to win a game against Fulham after three meetings, they’ve drawn two games losing one so far.

Prediction:
Saturday’s encounter will be a test for both teams. Palace to win with a 2.13 odds against Fulham pegging victory at 3.90.

On the other, Manchester United travel to Turf Moor to play newly promoted Burnley after abysmal outings both EPL and UEFA.

United lost 3-1 to Brighton and Hove Albion last week and repeated another defeat from Bayern Munich 4-3 in the UEFA.

The Red Devils have been able to win two of the three opening games this season.

It is believed that the Erik ten Hag boys do everything possible to snatch the needed three points away as they face Burnley.

Burnley are yet to record a victory after five matches, losing four drawing 1-1 with Forest last week.

United have another opportunity to prove their worth with 1.82 odds against Burnley with 4.33.
