Facing a second daunting Premier League clash with a London club in the space of a few days, relegation-threatened Leeds United play host to Chelsea at Elland Road on Wednesday evening.

The Whites went down 2-1 to Arsenal after a first-half implosion at the weekend, while Thomas Tuchel's side were pegged back in dramatic fashion by Wolverhampton Wanderers to draw 2-2.

We say: Leeds United 1-3 Chelsea


Leeds' defensive crisis has gone from bad to worse, and had Arsenal been able to find a ruthless streak at the Emirates, the Whites could have been making the journey home having shipped four or five.

Chelsea's recent sticky patch will have Marsch's side believing that a surprise result could be on the cards, but Tuchel will be demanding a strong performance before the trip to Wembley and should see his side respond in kind to deepen the hosts' relegation fears.

Data Analysis

Our analysis of all available data, including recent performances and player stats, suggests the most likely outcome of this match is a Chelsea win with a probability of 76.19%. A draw has a probability of 14.7% and a win for Leeds United has a probability of 9.13%.

The most likely scoreline is Leeds United 0-2 Chelsea with a probability of 11.12%. The next most likely scorelines are 0-3 (9.74%), 1-2 (8.99%), 0-1 (8.47%).


Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Since this article was published, this game has been called off due to a coronavirus outbreak in the Norwich squad. A new date for the game will be confirmed in due course.

Leicester City will be looking to make it back-to-back wins in the Premier League when they welcome Norwich City to the King Power Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

The Foxes will enter the contest off the back of a 1-0 victory over Liverpool, while basement side Norwich suffered a 3-0 defeat to Crystal Palace last time out.

We say: Leicester City 1-0 Norwich City


Leicester will again be missing a number of important players, but Norwich have selection issues of their own, and we are expecting the Foxes to pick up another three points, albeit by the narrowest of margins.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Watford vs. Everton (Wednesday, 7.45pm)

A Watford side with their fate already sealed meet an Everton outfit still battling to avoid the drop in the Premier League at Vicarage Road on Wednesday evening.

The Hornets' demotion was confirmed with a 1-0 loss to Crystal Palace at the weekend, while the Toffees' strong form continued with a 2-1 success away to Leicester City.

We say: Watford 1-2 Everton


With nothing but pride on the line, Watford might be permitted to play with a greater sense of freedom in the knowledge that they have nothing more to lose, but their Vicarage Road streak has been nothing short of abysmal.

Everton must still have their wits about them - especially given their track record of goals conceded on the road and fresh injury concerns - but Lampard's side are playing out of their skin and should boost their survival hopes further with a crucial triumph.

Data Analysis

Our analysis of all available data, including recent performances and player stats, suggests the most likely outcome of this match is a Watford win with a probability of 36.57%. A win for Everton has a probability of 35.91% and a draw has a probability of 27.5%.

The most likely scoreline for a Watford win is 1-0 with a probability of 10.81%. The next most likely scorelines for that outcome are 2-1 (7.92%) and 2-0 (6.58%). The likeliest Everton win is 0-1 (10.69%), while for a drawn scoreline it is 1-1 (13.01%).


Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Wolves vs. Man City (Wednesday, 8.15pm)

Manchester City will aim to take another giant step towards Premier League glory when Wolverhampton Wanderers welcome them to Molineux for Wednesday's fixture.

Bruno Lage's side fought back to draw 2-2 with Chelsea at the weekend, while the table-toppers hit Newcastle United for five without reply.

We say: Wolverhampton Wanderers 0-2 Manchester City


In spite of their lack of defensive options, a backline of Fernandinho and Laporte is still a reliable pairing for Man City, whereas Wolves are not the same defensive force that very nearly shut the champions out at the Etihad.

Guardiola's side only have the Premier League title left to fight for this term and have been in utterly ruthless form domestically, which is sure to aid their prospects of victory against a Wolves side whose inconsistency at Molineux should bedevil them once again.

Data Analysis

Our analysis of all available data, including recent performances and player stats, suggests the most likely outcome of this match is a Manchester City win with a probability of 76.62%. A draw has a probability of 15% and a win for Wolverhampton Wanderers has a probability of 8.36%.

The most likely scoreline is Wolverhampton Wanderers 0-2 Manchester City with a probability of 12.72%. The next most likely scorelines are 0-3 (10.6%), 0-1 (10.18%), 1-2 (8.92%).
