EPL Predictions Today: Expert Picks and Analysis for Gameweek 38 (24th May 2026)

The final English Premier League gameweek, 38, kicks off on Sunday, and we have performed an EPL table analysis and team form based on watching their past performances and coaching tactics. Below are our EPL predictions this weekend: 

Brighton vs. Manchester United

Main Tip: Home to Win

Brighton still has hopes of qualifying for the Europa League or the UEFA Conference League, but they need to win this game to ensure that’s the case. Both teams have been in good form in recent games, with Manchester United unbeaten in their last 5, winning 4. Brighton have won just 2 of their last 5 games.

We expect Brighton to win this game because Manchester United have already qualified for the UCL, while Brighton still have something to play for, and they are at home. 

Other Tips:

• Over 22.5 Shots
• Over 7.5 Corners
• Over 2.5 Goals

Burnley vs Wolves

Main Tip: Over 1.5 Goals

Both teams have nothing to play for anymore as they have already been relegated from the Premier League. They have been the worst team this season and have failed to win any of their last 5 EPL games. 

There have been at least 2 goals scored in most of their recent games, and we expect a similar outcome in this game. 

Other Tips:

• Over 7.5 Corners
• Over 31.5 Throw-ins
• Over 2.5 Cards

Crystal Palace vs Arsenal

Main Tip: Over 2.5 Goals

Arsenal has won the league, and Crystal Palace has nothing to play for in this game, so both teams will be playing for pride. While Crystal Palace have been this way the longest, they haven’t relented in their attack. We expect them to attack Arsenal in this game while Arsenal becomes a bit lax.

We expect over 2.5 goals in this game. The last 4-5 clashes between these teams have seen at least 3 goals scored. Also, in Crystal Palace’s last 5 games, there have been over 2.5 goals scored, and we expect a similar outcome in this game.

Other Tips:

• Over 7.5 Corners
• Both Teams to Score
• Over 22.5 Shots

Fulham vs. Newcastle

Main Tip: Both Teams to Score

Fulham have been in bad shape in recent games, winning just 1 of their last 5 games and losing 2 of those games. Newcastle are unbeaten in their last 3 games, winning 2 of those games. 

Both teams have scored in 4 of Newcastle’s last 5 EPL games, and there have been at least 3 goals scored too. We expect both teams to score in this game and over 2.5 goals, as their stats suggest.

Other Tips:

• Over 22.5 Shots
• Over 2.5 Goals
• Over 7.5 Corner Kicks

Liverpool vs. Brentford

Main Tip: Over 2.5 Goals

Brentford needs to win this game, as they are fighting to qualify for the Europa League or the UEFA Conference next season. They have been in bad form, winning just 1 of their last 5 games and losing 2. However, Liverpool is also in great form, as they have similar results in their last 5 games. 

We expect at least 3 goals in this game, as both teams are in good scoring form but concede a lot too. Both teams have scored over 2.5 goals in Liverpool’s last 5 games in the league.

Other Tips:

• Over 7.5 Corner kicks
• Over 22.5 Shots
• Both Teams to Score

Manchester City vs Aston Villa

Main Tip: Home to Win

Both teams have nothing else to play for, as Man City lost the title to Arsenal, while Aston Villa has secured its place in the UCL and just lifted the Europa League title; we expect them to rest some players for this game. 

We expect City to win this game because this might be Pep’s last game as City manager, and he’d love to go out with a win. 

Other Tips:

• Over 22.5 Shots
• Over 7.5 Corner Kicks
• Over 2.5 Goals

Nottingham Forest vs Bournemouth

Main Tip: Both Teams to Score

Nottingham Forest have been in bad shape in recent games, but they have always found the net. Bournemouth has qualified for the UCL and was in great shape in their last 5 games. 

However, we expect both teams to score in this game because both teams have scored in their recent games. In 3 of their last 5 clashes, both teams have scored.

Other Tips:

• Over 2.5 Goals
• Over 22.5 Shots
• Over 7.5 Corner Kicks

Sunderland vs Chelsea

Main Tip: Away to Win 

Both teams need to win this game if they are to play European football next season. They have been in a similar form, winning just 1 of their last 5 games in the league. Chelsea has the better squad quality and experience in such situations, and we expect them to win this game. 

Also, we expect at least 3 goals in this game, as there have been over 2.5 goals in 4 of the last 5 clashes between these teams.

Other Tips:

• Over 2.5 Goals
• Over 22.5 Shots
• Over 7.5 Corner Kicks

Tottenham vs Everton

Main Tip: Home to Win

This game will be very tight. Tottenham needs at least a draw to ensure that they remain in the EPL. They have lost just 1 of their last 5 games in the EPL, while Everton have failed to win any of their last 5 games in the league. 

This game will be hard for Tottenham, as Everton has a habit of making games hard for teams, and that’s why we expect both teams to score in this game.

Other Tips:

• Over 2.5 Cards
• Over 22.5 Shots
• Over 7.5 Corner Kicks

West Ham vs Leeds

Main Tip: Over 2.5 Goals

West Ham needs a win badly to avoid being relegated next season. However, they have failed to win their last 3 EPL games. Leeds United are safe and are unbeaten in their last 3 EPL games. 

With all at stake for West Ham, they’ll try to do their part by winning this game and pray that Tottenham loses. However, Leeds have been good in front of goal and stubborn, so we expect 3 goals in this game.

Other Tips:

• Over 2.5 Cards
• Over 22.5 Shots
• Over 7.5 Corner Kicks
