Man United v Nottingham Forest – Bruno unsurpassed
Sat, 12:30
Forest are unbeaten in eight in the league, and unbeaten in four against United, winning this exact fixture last season 3-2.
Their star man on that occasion was Morgan Gibbs-White who is expected to return this weekend, his face masked for protection, and with nine goal involvements in his last eight Premier League starts the visitors are all-the-stronger for him. He has additionally carved out 46 chances (1.4 per 90) this season.
Bruno Fernandes can beat that, and then some, the Portuguese schemer unsurpassed on the chance-creating front this term with a remarkable 124 to his name. The newly crowned FWA Footballer of the Year also boasts a decent record vs Forest, with six goal involvements in 10 meetings.
Forest’s corner-count has notable dwindled in recent weeks, winning just two per 90 across their last three games.

Brentford v Crystal Palace – 5/1 treble
Sat, 15:00
The Bees have lost only three of their 18 fixtures at home this season and they are strongly fancied here against a Palace side with one eye on their forthcoming European final.
That was clearly evident at the Etihad midweek, with Oliver Glasner keeping key personnel out of the firing line. In truth, the Eagles won’t do much between now and May 27 besides keep their fitness levels topped up and avoid injury.
Igor Thiago could well punish them for their disengagement, the Brazilian firing 0.64 goals per 90 this term. His 22-goal haul would have secured him a Golden Boot in five previous Premier League seasons.
The 24-year-old has registered two shots on target in three of his last five outings.
Perennial slow starters, the visitors have scored just one first-half goal since the start of March.

Leeds v Brighton – Patience required for visitors
Sat, 15:00
Leeds have conceded a mere 16 first-half goals this season. Only Arsenal and Manchester City can better that. As a significant counterweight, they have shipped in eight goals in added-on time. No other team has been more unfortunate.
Their propensity to concede last-gasp goals is exacerbated by who awaits them this weekend, the Seagulls converting beyond the 86th minute in four of their last five outings. Moreover, Brighton need the points to potentially secure a European spot, whereas the hosts are now safe.
It may take Fabian Hurzeler’s men some time to penetrate a stubborn back-five, with Ampadu anchoring just ahead. But they likely will in the end.
Diego Gomez’s return from injury offers up another likelihood, that of the Paraguayan getting carded. After all, since the beginning of February he’s been booked every 125 minutes.

Wolves v Fulham – A drab end
Sat, 15:00
Wolves unsurprisingly have the worst chance conversion rate in the top-flight this term. Fulham have the third worst. You can see where this one is going.
Let’s hammer the point home, nonetheless. Both teams have converted only once apiece in their last five games and with the former down and out, and the latter on the proverbial beach, we’re unlikely to be treated to fireworks at Molineux.
Amidst a traumatic campaign, the hosts have registered three or fewer shots on target in two-thirds of their home fixtures in 2025/26. Fulham meanwhile have scored the third fewest number of away goals.
Maybe Wolves will depart on a high, giving their fans something to hold onto over the summer? Maybe Fulham will go against type, and rack up numerous chances outside of the capital. Probably not though.

Newcastle v West Ham – Day of reckoning
Sat, 17:30
There are no more ifs, buts, and maybe-Spurs-will-lose-too. This is a day of reckoning for the Hammers, plain and simple.
On paper, this appears to be a really tough place for that reckoning to occur, but West Ham have fared well in the North-East in recent times, losing only twice from their last seven visits. Even those defeats saw them come off one goal worse in multi-goal thrillers.
With Newcastle boasting a healthy 1.8 goals per 90 at St James Park this term, and the Hammers needing a result, another high-scoring affair would not surprise. After all, the last 16 meetings between these sides have produced a goal every 23 minutes.
William Osula could well be one of the names on the score-sheet, the striker converting in three of his last five starts. The Dane has registered four shots apiece across his last two games.
Odds correct as of May 15th 2026. Recommended bets are advised to over-18s.
