Allow us to present some key stats and facts to help inform your decisions…
Everton v Southampton
The Toffees will be highly motivated to give Goodison Park a proper send-off before handing it over to the women’s team.
And the hosts could have hardly asked for a more favourable opponent than the team 20th in the table.
That being said, Saints have tightened up in recent weeks and while their defensive improvement has come far too late to matter, a 0-0 draw against Manchester City last time out gave their fans something to cheer.
Even so, it was only a fortnight ago they lost 2-0 to Leicester…
Our Prediction: 1-0 to Everton

West Ham v Nottingham Forest
Nuno Espirito Santo’s side have outperformed expectations all season long but their quest for Champions League qualification has wavered of late.
In fact, Forest are currently below the Hammers in the form table having mustered just five points from their last six games.
More broadly, West Ham have won just five of their 18 home league games this campaign while only Liverpool and Arsenal have earned more points on the road than Forest.
This one is all about mentality.
The visitors will be highly motivated while the hosts could easily be on the beach but Forest have not responded well to pressure in the last month – a 2-2 draw to Leicester last weekend was perhaps their most painful result of the season.
We’re inclined to give the Midlands side the benefit of the doubt as they won the reverse fixture 3-0 back in November.
Our Prediction: 2-1 to Forest

Arsenal v Newcastle
Sunday’s main event features second versus third in a battle of the Premier League’s best-of-the-rest.
The Magpies have beaten the Gunners three times this season, once in the league and twice in Carabao Cup.
Mikel Arteta’s side didn’t manage a single goal across those three fixtures.
Arsenal boast the best defensive record in the top flight this season but only Liverpool have scored more goals than Newcastle.
The North Londoners have won just one of their last six league games but, in fairness, they were prioritising the Champions League prior to the elimination at the hands of PSG.
The recent history of this fixture favours Newcastle but it’s a tricky one to predict.
Our Prediction: 1-1 draw

Brighton v Liverpool
With Arne Slot partying in Ibiza and several of Liverpool’s star players pictured on a luxury yacht in Dubai it’s probably valid to question whether the title winners are entirely focused on Monday night’s trip to the Amex.
The Reds will continue their victory lap for the remainder of the season but the Trent Alexander-Arnold situation has threatened to sour the mood.
Still, they are champions for a reason and it’s worth noting that Liverpool have scored 15 more goals on the road than the Seagulls have managed at home.
Brighton’s last remaining motivation is the possibility of Conference League qualification but that will go up in smoke if rivals Crystal Palace win the FA Cup.
After a miserable April, Fabian Hurzeler’s side have got back on track with seven points from their last three games but it’s a brave Score Predictor user who goes against Liverpool, even accounting for a couple of hangovers.
Our Prediction: 3-1 to Liverpool

Manchester City v Bournemouth
An interesting one to finish as the complexion of this match-up may be shaped by Saturday’s showdown at Wembley.
If Pep Guardiola’s troops endure an energy-sapping contest in the FA Cup final – perhaps even extra time and penalties – then they are unlikely to be suitably prepared for the visit of a lively Bournemouth outfit on Tuesday night.
The Cherries claimed a famous victory in the reverse fixture, ending a miserable run against Man City, but the eight-time Premier League champions took their revenge in the FA Cup quarter-finals.
We advise waiting to see how Saturday’s showpiece fixture plays out before submitting a prediction for this one; we’ll sit on the fence for now…
Our Prediction: 1-1 draw
