Sunday's Premier League predictions including Liverpool vs. Tottenham Hotspur

Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's Premier League fixtures, including Liverpool vs. Tottenham Hotspur.


Bournemouth vs. Leeds (Sunday, 2.00pm)

With their heads above water heading into the final five Premier League games of the season, Bournemouth and Leeds United will both endeavour to pull further away from the relegation zone in Sunday's showdown at the Vitality Stadium.

The Cherries ran out 1-0 winners in their midweek basement battle with Southampton, while the Whites were pegged back in a 1-1 draw with Leicester City last time out.

We say: Bournemouth 1-1 Leeds United


Fresh injury concerns over their midweek goalscorers is not what the doctor ordered for either side, but Leeds demonstrated a greater sense of defensive resilience on Tuesday and will be working with an extra two days' worth of rest compared to their fatigued hosts.

With both sides wary of making fatal errors at this stage of the season, there should be no repeat of November's seven-goal spectacular, but Bournemouth should right the wrongs of their last two home performances to glean a potentially priceless point in their survival bid - leaving Leeds at risk of being dragged back into the bottom three.

Fulham vs. Man City (Sunday, 2.00pm)

Fresh from crushing title rivals Arsenal in midweek, Manchester City will resume their pursuit of a fifth Premier League crown in six seasons when they face Fulham at Craven Cottage on Sunday afternoon.

Thanks to Wednesday's thrashing, Pep Guardiola's side find themselves two points behind the Gunners with two games in hand, while Marco Silva's men occupy 10th place in the Premier League table.

We say: Fulham 1-3 Manchester City


We expect Manchester City to secure an eighth successive Premier League victory at the expense of stuttering Fulham, who have lost six of their last eight matches in all competitions.

Given that Man City have kept just two clean sheets in their last 11 league outings, Fulham will be hopeful of scoring on Sunday, but Haaland and company should make light work of the Cottagers' backline.

Man Utd vs. Aston Villa (Sunday, 2.00pm)

Manchester United continue their push for the Premier League top four when they welcome Aston Villa to Old Trafford on Sunday.

Villa represent one of United's closest challengers for Champions League qualification, with six points separating the sides going into the weekend.

We say: Manchester United 2-1 Aston Villa


Man United's formidable home record will be put to the test by an in-form Villa side, but after going three games without victory in regulation time, Ten Hag's men will expect to end that run here.

Emery will take his Villa side to Old Trafford full of confidence, and claiming a result is not beyond them, but it will be difficult given United's form at home.

Newcastle vs. Southampton (Sunday, 2.00pm)

Following a damaging midweek defeat to Bournemouth, bottom club Southampton find themselves six points from safety ahead of Sunday's crucial clash at Newcastle United.

At the opposite end of the Premier League table, third-placed Newcastle have all but secured Champions League football as they sit eight points inside the top four.

We say: Newcastle United 4-0 Southampton


Having netted 10 goals across recent wins over Tottenham and Everton, in-form Newcastle look set to notch another high-scoring victory against struggling Southampton, who are on course to suffer a sixth defeat in eight matches.

Liverpool vs. Spurs (Sunday, 4.30pm)

Ryan Mason's second managerial baptism of fire continues on Sunday afternoon, as Tottenham Hotspur travel to Anfield for a Premier League date with Liverpool.

The Lilywhites fought back from two goals down to draw 2-2 with Manchester United in midweek, one day after the Reds also came from behind to defeat West Ham United 2-1.

We say: Liverpool 3-2 Tottenham Hotspur


Klopp was left elated with a perceived improvement in his side's defensive display against West Ham, but the Reds still gave up plenty of chances in midweek and should not hold out hope of a clean sheet against a goal-happy Spurs side.

We would not be surprised to see the net ripple a few times in an Anfield classic as both sides retain ambitions of sneaking into the top four, but despite the manner of their midweek fightback, a trip to Anfield - where they have not won since 2011 - should still be a bridge too far for Tottenham, whose away-day misfortune looks set to continue.
