Sunday's Premier League predictions including Aston Villa vs. Manchester United

Sports Mole provides score predictions for all of Sunday's Premier League fixtures, including Aston Villa vs. Manchester United.


Wolves vs. Brighton (Sunday, 12.00pm)

Wolverhampton Wanderers square off against Brighton & Hove Albion on Sunday afternoon looking to move a step closer to finishing no lower than 12th position in the Premier League standings.

However, Brighton, who have all but avoided relegation with four games to spare, make the trip to Molineux sitting just five points adrift of their hosts.

We say: Wolverhampton Wanderers 1-1 Brighton & Hove Albion


With both teams producing improved performances in their last fixtures, this has the potential to be an entertaining encounter. However, goals have been an issue all season, and we would not be surprised to see this contest end in a low-scoring draw.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Aston Villa vs. Man Utd (Sunday, 2.05pm)

Fresh from booking their place in the final of the Europa League, Manchester United begin a hectic schedule of three Premier League games in the space of just five days when they face Aston Villa on Sunday.

Victory would effectively secure a top-four spot for the Red Devils, while Aston Villa are looking for back-to-back top-flight wins for the first time this calendar year.

We say: Aston Villa 1-2 Manchester United


Historically, a Man United win away to Aston Villa is one of the safest predictions in football, and we expect that to be the case once again on Sunday.

Villa's clean sheet record is good this season, but they are also on the longest current run without one in the Premier League, conceding in each of their last seven games.

The hosts will no doubt be hoping to benefit from Man United's rotation, but the visitors could still field some big hitters for this one and we expect to see a familiar story - Man United falling behind away from home, only to come back and win.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

West Ham vs. Everton (Sunday, 4.30pm)

West Ham United take on Everton in the Premier League on Sunday, with the hosts looking to maintain pressure on Leicester City and Chelsea in the Champions League qualification positions.

Everton's own top-four aspirations appeared to come to a crashing end after the home defeat to Aston Villa last weekend, but Carlo Ancelotti will still be aiming to compete in Europe next season.

We say: West Ham United 1-1 Everton


Everton are considerably stronger on the road and could prove tough to beat on Sunday, with West Ham potentially being overpowered in midfield should Rice be unable to start as expected.

However, the Hammers are creating more clear-cut chances than most sides in the division and are a completely different beast with Antonio in attack, so it would be little surprise to see their march for a top four spot continue.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Arsenal vs. West Brom (Sunday, 7.00pm)

Arsenal will be looking to put their Europa League semi-final heartache behind them when they host relegation-threatened West Bromwich Albion in the Premier League on Sunday evening.

The Gunners have lost seven home games in the top-flight this campaign, four more than last season, and are also winless in their last six at the Emirates Stadium in all competitions.

Meanwhile, the Baggies have claimed just two wins on the road this term, although one of these was an impressive 5-2 victory away at Chelsea in April.

We say: Arsenal 2-1 West Bromwich Albion


Arteta will look to galvanise his troops and bounce back from their Europa League exit with a victory on Sunday to keep Arsenal's slim hopes of European qualification alive.

West Brom will be forced to push forward as they look to delay their impending relegation from the top-flight with a win, but we feel that could expose the Baggies defensively, allowing the Gunners to break them down and secure all three points at the Emirates.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.
