  Arsenal v Burnley: There will be plenty of goals in London on Saturday with two huge home wins on the cards. Alexis Sanchez should have a field day against Burnley’s defence. PREDICTION: Arsenal, 3-0. (Photo: Michael Regan / Getty Images)

  Chelsea v Queens Park Rangers: It wouldn’t be surprising if Chelsea give Diego Costa another week off to rest his dodgy hamstring as they should stroll past the worst defence in the league. PREDICTION: Chelsea, 4-0. (Photo: Laurence Griffiths / Getty Images)

  Everton v Swansea City: Everton are picking up form, but Roberto Martinez will know that former club Swansea can dominate possession against any team. The battle of the two big strikers - Romelu Lukaku and Wilfried Bony - will be intriguing. PREDICTION: Draw, 1-1. (Photo: Nick potts / AP)

• 

  Hull City v Southampton: At some point Southampton’s run of form will come to and end, but they are playing so well defensively that it is hard to see Hull scoring more than once, and up front the visitors are on fire. PREDICTION: Southampton, 2-1. (Photo: Gareth Copley / Getty Images)

• 

  Leicester City v West Bromwich Albion: Leicester are in an important stage of the season and need to pick up a couple of wins to avoid slipping towards Burnley at the bottom. This is the kind of game they need to win and they should scrape three points. PREDICTION: Leicester, 1-0. (Photo: Michael Regan / Getty Images)

  Stoke City v West Ham United: West Ham’s goal-scoring run will come to an end at pragmatic Stoke who can blunt the best of attacks when they are on form. PREDICTION: Draw, 0-0. (Photo: Glyn Kirk / AFP)

• 

  Manchester City v Manchester United: United played their best game defensively against Chelsea and face City ata great time, with their rivals having lost two on the trot. Both teams should score, but Sergio Aguero should be able to make the difference against United’s back four. PREDICTION: City, 2-1. (Photo: Michael Regan / Getty Images)

  Aston Villa v Tottenham Hotspur: Villa’s early form has vanished, Tottenham have various issues, this game could go either way but Spurs have more creative players and the likes of Erik Lamela and Christian Erikssen can be matchwinners. PREDICTION: Spurs, 2-1. (Photo: Suzanne Plunkett / Reuters)

• 

  Crystal Palace v Sunderland: Sunderland look like relegation candidates, while Palace are playing well at the moment and gave Chelsea a decent fight in the last home match. Home advantage plus better form equals Palace win. PREDICTION: Palace, 2-0. (Photo: Jan Kruger / Getty Images)
