Brentford vs. Spurs (Sunday, 2.00pm)

At risk of suffering five consecutive Premier League defeats for the first time in over 20 years, Tottenham Hotspur make the short trek to the Gtech Community Stadium to meet Brentford in Sunday's London derby.
The Lilywhites relied on their young guns to sink Elfsborg 3-0 in Thursday's Europa League tie, while the Bees controversially got the better of Crystal Palace 2-1 in their last Premier League affair.
We say: Brentford 2-2 Tottenham Hotspur
If there is any game in the 2024-25 Premier League that guarantees goals, it is surely Brentford vs. Tottenham, especially as the Bees have still not kept a single clean sheet on their own patch all season long.
Frank's men still ought to feel that a depleted Tottenham defence is there for the taking, but the hosts have faced more shots than any other Premier League side this season, and their wait for a first home win of 2025 - as well as Spurs' first top-flight win of the New Year - should continue in a frenetic stalemate.

Man Utd vs. Crystal Palace (Sunday, 2.00pm)

Looking to record their fourth straight win across all competitions, Manchester United will welcome Crystal Palace to Old Trafford in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon.
The Red Devils took care of business on the Europa League stage in Romania on Thursday night, whilst the Eagles have been afforded a full week to dwell on their top-flight defeat to Brentford last time out.
We say: Manchester United 1-1 Crystal Palace
After back-to-back away wins, Manchester United will be desperate to avoid the visit of Crystal Palace from becoming another sobering afternoon at the Theatre of Dreams this season.
The Eagles have been a tough nut to crack on their travels this term, and we feel that Glasner's side could snatch a point on the red side of Manchester.

Arsenal vs. Man City (Sunday, 4.30pm)

Friends become foes for 90 minutes once again on Sunday afternoon, as Mikel Arteta's Arsenal host Pep Guardiola's Manchester City in a mouthwatering Premier League main event.
Should the reigning champions prevail at the Emirates Stadium, the gap to the Gunners in the top-flight table would be a mere three points - scarcely believable in the wake of their winter-time plight.
We say: Arsenal 1-0 Manchester City
One-nil lightning could very well strike twice at the Emirates on Sunday, where more of Arsenal's star names will be well-rested following their respective Champions League exertions, and the indomitable pairing of Gabriel Magalhaes and William Saliba relish coming up against Erling Haaland.
A classic is unlikely to be in store, but assuming Arsenal can avoid another high-profile sending-off, the Gunners have our vote to strike once and shut up shop to keep Liverpool on their toes.
