Saturday's Premier League predictions including Manchester United vs. Man City

Sports Mole provides score predictions for all of Saturday's Premier League fixtures, including Manchester United vs. Manchester City.


Wolves vs. Aston Villa (Saturday, 12.30pm)

Wolverhampton Wanderers take on West Midlands rivals Aston Villa at Molineux on Saturday with both teams looking to return to winning ways.

The hosts were beaten heavily by Liverpool last weekend, while Villa have gone down 2-1 in back-to-back matches to slip to 12th, two places below their opponents.

We say: Wolverhampton Wanderers 2-1 Aston Villa


Both sides have lost a bit of momentum and could do with a positive result on Saturday. Villa had won three away games in a row without conceding before going down to West Ham last time out, but we can see Wolves - unbeaten in four at Molineux - taking all three points in a narrow victory.

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

Newcastle vs. West Brom (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Newcastle United are seeking back-to-back wins for the first time this season in the Premier League when they take on lowly West Bromwich Albion at St James' Park on Saturday.

The game has been given the go-ahead to take place despite a recent coronavirus outbreak in the Newcastle camp, which caused the postponement of last week's clash with Aston Villa.

We say: Newcastle United 1-0 West Bromwich Albion


As well as failing to win back to back league games post-lockdown in June, Newcastle have also not kept successive clean sheets in that period.

The Magpies will be looking to put that right this weekend against an Albion side with just one point from a possible 15 on their travels this term, and we can see them coming out on top.

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

Man Utd vs. Man City (Saturday, 5.30pm)

Manchester United and Manchester City lock horns for the 183rd time on Saturday, with just one point and one place separating the near-neighbours in the Premier League table.

Both clubs endured disappointing starts to their respective campaigns, but have begun to climb the table in recent weeks and would stay in touch with the leading pack with victory in this match.

We say: Manchester United 1-2 Manchester City


Solskjaer has managed to ease growing pressure on his shoulders in the past with timely victories in matches exactly like this one, and United's record in the derby last season commands Man City's respect too.

However, it is impossible to look past Man United's home form this season and, while Man City's away record is not exactly outstanding either, Guardiola's men do seem to be finding a level of consistency they had previously been lacking.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Everton vs. Chelsea (Saturday, 8.00pm)

Chelsea have the opportunity to reclaim top spot in the Premier League - temporarily at least - when they make the trip to Everton on Saturday evening.

The Blues have been in impressive form since the end of October and are two points off the summit, with Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool not in action until the following day.

Everton have been heading in the opposite direction, meanwhile, and enter this game five points worse off than their opponents in ninth place.

We say: Everton 1-2 Chelsea


Everton have won their last two home league meetings with Chelsea - they last won three in a row between February 2010 and February 2012 - but they have lost back-to-back matches at Goodison Park over the past month.

Chelsea have been in sensational form, meanwhile, winning five away games in a row in all competitions, and we can see them extending that victorious run this weekend.

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