The Magpies Host the Blues

Eddie Howe's side bounced back from the disappointing derby reverse to Sunderland, salvaging a thrilling 2-1 victory over Fulham to march into the EFL Cup semi-finals during midweek, courtesy of Lewis Miley's injury-time decisive intervention.

The Geordie faithful will be aiming to capitalise on that success with three crucial points against the Stamford Bridge outfit, and a return to home will certainly boost their confidence. The statistics speak volumes: they have secured five, drawn one and lost only two of their eight home EPL matches, while they have also triumphed in all of their last four home encounters with Chelsea.

While Chelsea stand impressive on the road this term, accumulating the joint-second best points tally in hostile territory in the league (fourteen from eight excursions), the Blues have been inconsistent in recent weeks. With a challenging trip to St James' Park, we are favouring the home side to prevail.

Etihad Encounter

The striking sensation's phenomenal goalscoring record since signing for Manchester City has maintained its trajectory this season, with the goal machine already netting 23 goals in 22 appearances across all competitions, including finding the net three in his last two matches.

Haaland has been especially prolific against West Ham for Pep Guardiola's side, registering nine goals in six appearances against the Hammers. Given such stunning form, we are tipping the phenomenal forward to continue his devastating record with a further goal.

Spurs Host the Reds

Hugo Ekitike delivered a stunning start to life at Liverpool before enduring a barren period throughout October and November, but the French forward has reclaimed his clinical ways in December.

A brace against Leeds United was complemented with another brace in Liverpool's commanding 2-0 win over Brighton & Hove Albion, leaving the striker with four goals in his last two English Premier League outings.

As Liverpool are set to take on a Tottenham Hotspur side that have been notably underwhelming at home—claiming just eight points from eight home league games, while they have also shipped a significant 21 strikes in just 16 EPL encounters—we are backing the Reds to have abundant attacking success.

Given the clinical touch of Ekitike, we are tipping the striker to get on the scoresheet in this one.

Midlands Showdown

Aston Villa have lost just one of their last 32 fixtures at Villa Park across all competitions, while they have also triumphed in all of their last nine games in all competitions, endowing them with plenty of belief as they steel themselves to face an notably unpredictable Manchester United team.

While the Red Devils have lost merely one of their last 10 fixtures, Ruben Amorim's side have won only two of their last seven EPL encounters, and they are heading into this one off the back of a frantic 4-4 draw with Bournemouth—exposing their structural weaknesses.

Despite the fact that Manchester United are expected to give Aston Villa a difficult test, especially in defence as the Red Devils possess the joint-second best attack in the league with 30 goals registered, we expect Aston Villa will weather the storm and deliver the victory.
