With the business end of the Premier League just around the corner, all teams will be preparing to get the most number of points from their matches. This is also the time when managers will be fearful of their positions in their respective sides and will do everything possible to ensure that they do not lose their jobs.
While Liverpool enjoy a well-earned superiority at the top of the table with 56 points inside their kitty, challengers such as Arsenal, Nottingham Forest and Chelsea are slowly creeping up towards them. Quite naturally, the temperatures are rising, and every team will want to end up near the top of the table. Let us take a look at the best picks for this exciting weekend of football and all the action coming our way.
Top Premier League prediction №1. Brighton vs Chelsea (Friday, February 14)
Brighton & Hove Albion will meet Chelsea soon after their 2-1 victory in the FA Cup last week. The Seagulls know that their opponents will be hungrier than ever to avenge their recent defeat and will do everything within their power to pick up all three points here.
Chelsea have the added incentive of pushing for the top spot in the league table as they are currently perched upon the fourth spot. Brighton, who are 10th in the standings, will want to move upwards to ensure a spot for themselves in the Europa Conference League next season.

However, with the likes of Solly March, James Milner and Pervis Estupinan absent, they will face an uphill task. Chelsea have been unbeaten in three out of their last five matches, and will have a superior advantage over their opponents quite clearly. The Blues, quite naturally, have been given odds of -270 by 20Bet to win or draw this game, and that will be our pick too.
Pick: Chelsea to win or draw (-270)
Top Premier League prediction №2 Manchester City vs Newcastle United (Saturday, February 15)
Despite facing existential questions in the middle of the season, Manchester City seem to have recovered well and are now in the reckoning for a spot in the top four of the Premier League.
They are currently ranked in the fifth position, and will hope that victory over Newcastle in this game will push them further upwards. However, with goalkeeper Ederson Moraes a doubtful starter due to a knock, manager Pep Guardiola’s defence will bear a shabby look. Plus, their recent 1-5 defeat to Arsenal will not give them a boost in morale.

Newcastle have been one of the best teams in the league this season, with manager Eddie Howe’s exuberance breathing a new lease of life into them. Striker Alexander Isak’s form has often been talked about, but his fellow attackers Anthony Gordon and Jacob Murphy have also delivered whenever they have been asked to by their manager.
This will be perhaps the most closely contested game in the Premier League this gameweek, with the Magpies ranked 6th in the standings, just one spot below Manchester City with the same number of points. City have been given odds of -133 to win this game.
Pick: Manchester City to win (-133)
Top Premier League prediction №3. Tottenham Hotspur vs Manchester United (Sunday, February 16)
Manchester United, who have struggled all season, will travel to take on Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday, having won four out of their last five matches. This will give Ruben Amorim’s side the confidence to take their opponents down a perch or two, but whom are they kidding?
Both clubs have seemed like shadows of their former selves this season and are currently placed way below where they would like to be. United’s recent 2-1 win over Leicester City in the FA Cup is bound to wash away some of the painful memories of their 0-2 defeat to Crystal Palace at home in the league.

Spurs will want to use their home advantage in this fixture, but they will not be too keen on being ranked 14th in the league table, just one spot below United, who are 13th. Manager Ange Postecoglou will have to tread carefully as he can not be certain for how long the Spurs management will continue to have faith in him.
However, both these teams have an array of young players who can light up north London with their antics and give a happy farewell to this busy weekend of football. Spurs have been given odds of -233 by 20Bet to either win or draw this game.
Pick: Tottenham Hotspur to win or draw (-233)
