Premier League predictions for Matchday 11 Weekend
TopNaija returns with its Premier League predictions just before the league season comes to an abrupt halt with the international break.
With one last chance to vie for the perfect slot in the Premier League table, all 20-teams in the league are sure to go all out before the hiatus.
The games kickoff tomorrow Saturday 9th November with London side Brentford taking on a highly in form AFC Bournemouth side at home.
The Cherries last weekend were one of the teams that gave the Premier League some excitement after they saw off a title chasing Manchester City side in a 2-1 defeat to ensure Liverpool reclaimed the top spot that weekend. This time however, the tides will be looking to change hands. For one, Bournemouth will have to deal with a Brentford side away, and the Cherries’ away form this season is nothing compared to their form at the Vitality Stadium.
In our Premier League predictions, we see a 3-2 defeat coming for Bournemouth.

TopNaija NG Premier League predictions for matchday 10 weekend
“What would be your biggest problem” — Berbatov to Amorim
Crystal Palace and fellow London side Fulham will lock horns concurrently with Brentford and Bournemouth, as well as the other 3 PM kickoffs, with the Eagles seeking to up their game for a consecutive weekend.
However, we believe Fulham will have the edge in a possible 0-2 win at the Selhurst Park.
West Ham United versus Everton is that fixture that has fans and punters wondering if the Toffees will bank on West Ham’s poor form this season to steal a point or 3 away from the London Stadium, or if they themselves will fall victim to their own misfortunes just like they have all season. It is quite the tough fixture to predict, but we figure Sean Dyche will have something against the Hammers.
In our predictions for the Premier League games, we have West Ham claiming all 3-points in a 2-1 win that sees things looking positive for Julen Lopetegui.
Wolverhampton Wanderers versus Southampton naturally should be a game that has Wolves as favorites. However, the current Premier League season shows Wolves no respect. We predict this tie to end in a 2-2 draw at Molineux.
Brighton and Hove Albion versus Manchester City has the making of another fixture that could shake up this weekend before the international break halts things for football fans of the Premier League. Can the Seagulls hand the Cityzens their 4th back-to-back defeat of the season?
It is a possibility. However, our premier league predictions has Manchester City and Pep Guardiola seeing this game go in their favor. We predict a 1-4 win for the visitors.
Liverpool will round the Saturday fixtures up against Aston Villa at 8 PM kickoff time, in a game that looks more like a Champions League fixture than a Premier League one this season.
Can the Reds do it again? Win their 15th game in 17 matches overall? Or will Aston Villa and Unai Emery stop them like Nottingham Forest did?
Our predictions for this game has it tight once more for Liverpool. However, we think the Reds will edge it in 2-1 win.
Sunday 10th November ends matchday 11 fixtures with Manchester United taking on Leicester City at Old Trafford. The Foxes still have nightmares from the 5-2 defeat in the Carabao Cup a few weeks ago, and heading into this tie, Leicester will hold caution while under the shades of Old Trafford.
We predict this game will go in the favor of the Red Devils again, owing to the new manager bounce situation the club is currently on. We think Manchester United will force out a 2-0 win at home.
Nottingham Forest versus Newcastle United will have all the attention it can get considering Forest’s current form and position in the league table. Nottingham under the management of Nuno Espirito Santo find themselves 3rd in the league at the moment. A win against the Magpies only strengthens their position if results between Chelsea and Arsenal go in their favor.
However, we think Newcastle will be too much for them as we see the Magpies stealing a point in a 2-2 draw at the City Ground.
Tottenham Hotspur versus Ipswich Town looks like that kind of game where Tottenham can decide to get ‘spursy’ just to grab headlines. In our Premier League predictions, we see Spurs drawing Ipswich in a 1-1 stalemate.
Chelsea versus Arsenal brings old London enemies to Stamford Bridge for a fixture that has a lot of history behind it. Glory, bragging rights and a chance to get back into title winning narratives, awaits whoever will come out on top in this fixture. Will any side come out top?
Our Premier League predictions favor the Gunners stealing all 3-points at the Bridge in what might be a 2-3 win. But that is not a given, and if any punter will want to play devil’s advocate, a 2-2 draw could be an alternative.
