Sunday's Premier League predictions including Arsenal vs. Aston Villa

Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's Premier League fixtures, including Arsenal vs. Aston Villa.

Aiming to regain a lead at the summit of the Premier League table as the title race heats up, Liverpool will welcome Crystal Palace to Anfield on Sunday.

A draw with Manchester United last weekend saw the hosts fall behind Arsenal on goal difference with seven top-flight games remaining this term, while their visitors sit 14th amidst a five-match winless streak.

We say: Liverpool 3-0 Crystal Palace


While Liverpool did suffer a setback in their title bid last weekend and a surprise home beating in midweek, we do not see Klopp's men letting up easily and anticipate them returning to winning ways in dominant fashion at Anfield to ramp up the pressure on Arsenal.

West Ham vs. Fulham (Sunday, 2.00pm)

West Ham United play host to Fulham on Sunday afternoon under pressure to deliver a much-needed three points as they bid to remain in the top seven of the Premier League standings.

While the Cottagers make the short trip to the London Stadium in 13th position, they sit just nine points adrift of their hosts.

We say: West Ham United 2-2 Fulham


Given the inconsistency of both sides, this is a difficult match to predict. Moyes must also find a balance with the second leg with Leverkusen to come, and it could lead to a slightly chaotic - but entertaining - share of the spoils being played out.

Arsenal vs. Aston Villa (Sunday, 4.30pm)

Looking to move a step closer to their first English crown in two decades, Arsenal will welcome Champions League-chasing Aston Villa to the Emirates for an all-important Premier League clash on Sunday afternoon.

The Gunners fought back to earn a draw versus Bayern Munich in the Champions League on Tuesday, whereas Villa were triumphant in Europa Conference League action against Lille two days later.

We say: Arsenal 3-1 Aston Villa


With an extra two days to recuperate following their respective European outing, Arsenal should be in a good position to reclaim their spot at the top of the Premier League after Man City and Liverpool play earlier in the weekend.

Villa proved a tough nut to crack in the early stages for Guardiola's men at the Etihad on April 3, however without the presence of Luiz in their midfield, we feel that the visitors will fall to defeat here.
