PL Match Preview : Liverpool vs West Ham

naijabet.com

Liverpool were pegged back from 3-1 up to lose 4-3 at Bournemouth last week and Jurgen Klopp will demand a much-improved performance from his players on Sunday. The return of Joel Matip in defence is a huge boost for the Reds.

A 5-1 thumping at the hands of Arsenal last weekend means West Ham have failed to win their last five league games as pressure mounts on Slaven Bilic. They did, however, secure a 3-0 win in this fixture last season and Bilic would love nothing more than a repeat of the victory.

That is unlikely to happen, though, with Liverpool overwhelming favourites to secure the win. Naijabet.com

Liverpool – Georginio Wijnaldum could come in for Emre Can, with the latter carrying a minor knock and may not be risked.

Joe Gomez and Sheyi Ojo are both available to Jurgen Klopp, though are unlikely to start.

PL Match Preview : Manchester United vs Tottenham

Manchester United are playing well but are being punished for their inability to convert the chances they are creating. They are six points behind Tottenham and a defeat here would surely put an end to their chances of finishing in the top four let alone the title.

Tottenham have started to find some rhythm in recent weeks and also need a win to keep pace with the four teams in front of them. Mauricio Pochettino’s side start the weekend three points behind Manchester City, although that gap could be more by the time they kick off on Sunday.

Jose Mourinho’s side haven’t won back-to-back games in all competitions since September but the need to beat Tottenham here is huge and Mourinho will ensure the players know that before the game.

This is a tough match to call, in which Tottenham should be very confident of getting a result. The way in which United are playing, they need to be at least two goals ahead with five minutes remaining to see out the win. Place your bet on Naijabet.com

Manchester United – Eric Bailly marked his return to first-team action with a solid 90-minute showing against Zorya in the Europa League on Thursday and will partner Phil Jones at the heart of Manchester United’s defence on Sunday.

PL Match Preview : Chelsea vs West Bromwich Albion

Chelsea continue to impress and are now three points clear at the top of the Premier League after their 3-1 win away to Manchester City last weekend. Eight league wins in a row is their best run of form in a single season since 2007, when they won nine in a row.

West Brom are also in top form and have even scored more goals (20) than Manchester United this season (19). From the start of November only Chelsea (12) have won more points in the league than the Baggies (10), so this is not an easy fixture for Conte’s men.

Chelsea have actually only won one of their last six against West Brom, and with the Baggies playing their best football in some time, may not extend their winning run here. Naijabet.com

Chelsea – Chelsea come into Sunday’s home meeting against West Brom with fresh injury concerns. Nemanja Matic missed their 3-1 win overManchester City with a muscle problem sustained in training, while Pedro and Diego Costa were forced off during the match with knocks.

All three are expected to recover in time to start, although Cesc Fabregas and Willian are on standby. Oscar, however, is ill and will not feature.
