Premier League predictions: Chelsea vs. Manchester City, all week 31 games
Swansea City vs Tottenham Hotspur
Are Tottenham back in the title race? Really, only Chelsea can answer that question over the next few games. During that time, Tottenham just need to keep on winning and see where they are in a few weeks time.
Spurs are staggeringly consistent. They may have the odd blip here and there, but it tends to just be one game, and then they’re right back to business. Even the absence of Harry Kane has not slowed down Mauricio Pochettino’s men.
Tottenham continue to win even without their star striker, however, every game without Kane is an individual challenge of its own. Swansea, now, will be exactly that once again. The Swans are fighting to remain in the Premier League and are capable on their day.
Prediction: Swansea 0-1 Tottenham
Liverpool vs. Bournemouth
Liverpool have found their groove once again after a particularly bad start to 2017. The Reds have won three of their last four league games, and are now looking a much stronger bet to finish in the top four.
Bournemouth were , similarly, on a poor run since the turn of the year but are now back in better form. Neither team have lost in their last four games. One will likely lose here, though, and that’s Bournemouth.
The Cherries can be a dangerous team, but they pride themselves on offense more than they do defense. This wont be a difficult game for Liverpool at home, it will just be dangerous as long as it is 0-0. If Liverpool take their chances, they will win rather clearly.
Prediction: Liverpool 3-1 Bournemouth
