Sunday's Premier League predictions including Tottenham Hotspur vs. Arsenal

sportsmole.co.uk, 28 April 2024, 05:00
Spurs vs. Arsenal (Sunday, 2.00pm)

Looking to take the next step towards their first Premier League title in two decades, Arsenal will make the short trip across the capital to face fierce rivals Tottenham Hotspur in the North London derby on Sunday afternoon at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The Gunners are coming into this clash following a five-star demolition of West Londoners Chelsea on Tuesday night, whereas the Lilywhites have been afforded a fortnight to dwell on their limp display at Newcastle United earlier in the month.

We say: Tottenham Hotspur 2-2 Arsenal

Due to the hit-or-miss nature of Postecoglou's Tottenham, it is difficult to know whether to expect a battle for the North London history books or a routine success for Premier League hopefuls Arsenal.

However, following a two-week break in action to reflect on a lacklustre display at Newcastle, there is no reason why Spurs cannot force the title-chasing Gunners to settle for a point here.

Bournemouth vs. Brighton (Sunday, 2.00pm)

Both heading for mid-table in the Premier League standings, Bournemouth host Brighton & Hove Albion at the Vitality Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

The home side moved above the Seagulls with a 1-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers on Wednesday, while the visitors were thrashed 4-0 by Manchester City last time out.

We say: Bournemouth 2-1 Brighton & Hove Albion

Bournemouth brought an end to their three-game run without victory thanks to Antoine Semenyo's first-half goal against Wolves last time out, while Brighton extended their winless streak to five matches with a 4-0 loss to Man City.

The Cherries have avoided defeat in any of their last five games at the Vitality Stadium, and we expect them to continue that run with victory against an out-of-sorts Brighton side.

Nott'm Forest vs. Man City (Sunday, 4.30pm)

Manchester City square off against Nottingham Forest on Sunday afternoon looking to keep their Premier League title bid in their own hands.

At a time when the defending champions begin the weekend in second place in the standings with a game in hand, Forest are just one point above the relegation zone.

We say: Nottingham Forest 1-4 Manchester City

With Forest well-rested and motivated after the defeat to Everton, City will be faced with a riled-up City Ground. Nevertheless, we still expect City to make relatively light work of Nuno's side, running out convincing victors like they did at Brighton.
