We could have an upset on the cards with this Sunday fixture between Newcastle and Arsenal. Wenger has the firepower to keep this notion a failed prediction and take all three points.

However, with some key injuries in their midweek Europa clash against CSKA Moscow, he could be going into the match with what he has left to work with, rather than, what a great selection he has to choose from.

Scoring goals like they playing for a Champions League spot is exactly what the North London club has been doing. Still unbeaten after their late heroics in the Europa tie against CSKA, it will be hard not to count them as favourites for this one as well.

The only problem – Kennedy’s Newcastle has been on a short lift and has seen some great results since he joined. He has been a major difference for Rafa – and has single-handedly, helped lift the Toons from doom.

If things go the Rafa way, score early and shut the front door – Newcastle can make it four wins in as many in their Premier League run. And Surprise, surprise – Arsenal can achieve the exact record if they were to take all the spoils on Sunday.

I’m saying this will be the only upset of the English Premier League Matchday 34 weekend, and I’m saying Newcastle will take all the points over Arsenal.

Match time: Sunday 12:30 GMT
Venue: St. James Park
Score Prediction: Newcastle 1-0 Arsenal

Manchester United vs. West Brom

I think we all know where this ones heading? Yep, a Man United win all the way. West Brom has become the team any of the top-six clubs use to get their eyes in for a bigger match.

A practice match in preparation for a match, let’s say like… Manchester United vs. Bournemouth (LOL smiley face). They were heavily let down by Pardew and now fight for pride while they sit at the very bottom of the Premier League waste pit.

United should be cruising through this one, with all the pressure off them having to fend off Spurs and Liverpool for second place. This after their comeback win in the Manchester derby on Matchday 33.

No point in wishing or thinking there’s an upset waiting. Plain and simple, straightforward win for United.

Match time: Sunday 15:00 GMT
Venue: Old Trafford
Score Prediction: Manchester United 3-0 West Brom

Excited for the weekend ahead, but sad about the Premier League drawing to close with each weekend being played out. But what I tell myself to keep me going… Russia 2018 World Cup is on its way.
