Top talks for today’s fixtures

Of the lot, Fulham has it the worst. They have an unequal test against title challengers, Man City. Making matters even excruciating for the Craven Cottage side, Pep has four first-team players returning for duty.

Fernandinho, Vincent Kompany, Kevin De Bruyne, Benjamin Mendy, and John Stones have all returned to full training, giving Pep more options from the bench. This will not bode well for Fulham.

Palace’s chances of taking three points are high as they take on the worst team of the league. They can make it 36 points from 31 fixtures if they complete the win over Huddersfield. The Eagles along with, Burnley, Southampton, and Brighton fight for survival as all of them continue at the bottom of the table, above the relegation zone.

Wolves will be homing in on the Foxes and Cherries’ fixture as well as the West Ham and Everton meeting, as they form part of the clubs fighting for Europa League football. They go up against an intermitted Burnley. The Burnley hurdle might see them come up short, with the Clarets sweating relegation.

Saturday’s predicted scores

Fulham 0-4 Man City
Crystal Palace 3-0 Huddersfield
Leicester City 3-1 Bournemouth
Man United 3-1 Watford
Burnley 2-3 Wolves 
Brighton 2-2 Southampton
