Wednesday's Premier League predictions including Liverpool vs. Brighton

Sports Mole provides score predictions for all of Wednesday's Premier League fixtures, including Liverpool vs. Brighton & Hove Albion.


Burnley vs. Man City (Wednesday, 6.00pm)

Manchester City are looking to become the first Premier League side since Arsenal in 2002 to win 13 successive games in all competitions when they make the trip to Burnley.

The Citizens have been on an extraordinary run of form over the past couple of months and lead the way at the top of the Premier League.

Opponents Burnley recently beat Liverpool at Anfield, but defeat to Chelsea last time out leaves them just two places above the relegation zone.

We say: Burnley 0-3 Manchester City


Man City look unstoppable on current form and, while Burnley's results have picked up of late - even accounting for the loss to Chelsea last time out - this match will surely only end one way.

The Citizens have won 25 of their last 27 games played on a Wednesday, including each of the last 11 in the Premier League, and we are backing a routine away victory at Turf Moor.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 2.5 goals.

Fulham vs. Leicester (Wednesday, 6.00pm)

Premier League title contenders Leicester City make the trip to Fulham on Wednesday evening looking to end their two-match winless streak in the top flight.

Meanwhile, Fulham head into the fixture at Craven Cottage now sitting seven points adrift of safety, albeit with a game in hand on 17th-placed Brighton & Hove Albion.

We say: Fulham 1-2 Leicester City


Despite their winless streak, Parker and his Fulham side will be confident of gaining at least a point from this contest. That said, Leicester have performed better on their travels this season, and they could have enough quality in the final third to edge out their hosts.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.

Leeds vs. Everton (Wednesday, 7.30pm)

Leeds United will be looking to complete a league double over Everton for the first time since 1990-91 when the sides face off at Elland Road on Wednesday evening.

The Whites were 1-0 winners at Goodison Park in the reverse fixture, but they enter this game four points below their opponents having played a game more.

We say: Leeds United 1-1 Everton


Everton may be better off than Leeds in terms of points, but the home side enter this game in better form thanks to back-to-back victories.

Of the 45 teams the Toffees have faced at least 10 times away from home in their top-flight history, their lowest win rate on the road is against Leeds.

However, Ancelotti's men have looked good on their travels and we can see them taking at least a point from this latest trip to Elland Road.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.

Aston Villa vs. West Ham (Wednesday, 8.15pm)

Aston Villa play host to West Ham United on Wednesday evening with the opportunity to move level on points with their fifth-placed opponents in the Premier League standings.

Meanwhile, the Hammers make the trip to Birmingham looking for the victory which would keep the club in contention for the Champions League positions.

We say: Aston Villa 2-1 West Ham United


Having performed well in defeat to Liverpool, West Ham are capable of getting back on track on Wednesday evening. However, Villa's extra quality in the final third could shine through over the 90 minutes, particularly with their opponents conscious of getting caught on the break if they push too hard for maximum points.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.

Liverpool vs. Brighton (Wednesday, 8.15pm)

Liverpool welcome Brighton & Hove Albion to Anfield on Wednesday looking to make it three Premier League wins in a row for the first time since September.

The champions climbed back up to third in the table with a 3-1 victory at West Ham United on Sunday, shortly before Brighton beat Tottenham Hotspur to ease their relegation concerns.

We say: Liverpool 2-0 Brighton & Hove Albion


This will not be an easy game for Liverpool and, even considering their return to form over the past week, it is a potential banana skin ahead of the Man City showdown at the weekend.

Brighton will arrive at Anfield in fine form and knowing that Liverpool's long unbeaten run there is over, and if they can reproduce their performance from Sunday on Wednesday then they stand a good chance of getting something from the game.

However, Brighton's style could end up playing into Liverpool's hands and we expect the champions to have enough to make it three wins on the bounce in midweek.

Our tipster partners are predicting a home win.
