EPL Predictions Today: Expert Picks and Analysis for Gameweek 37 (From Fri 15th May – Mon 18th May 2026)

The English Premier League gameweek 36 kicks off on Saturday, 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: 

Aston Villa vs. Liverpool

Main Tip: Both Teams to Score

Both Aston Villa and Liverpool are in poor form, but they have almost secured UCL qualification. Aston Villa has won just 1 of their last 5 games, losing 3. Liverpool have won just 2 of their last 5 games and lost 2 as well.

We expect both teams to score in this game, or at least 3 goals, because in the last 5 meetings between Aston Villa and Liverpool at Villa Park, these outcomes have been seen.

Other Tips:

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

Manchester United vs Nottingham Forest

Main Tip: Over 2.5 Goals

Both teams have nothing to play for anymore, as Manchester United has qualified for the UCL, while Nottingham Forest is safe from relegation. Both teams have been in good form in their recent 5 games, winning 3 and losing 1. 

There have been at least 3 goals scored in Manchester United’s last 5 home games, including their games against Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford. We expect a similar outcome in this game. 

Other Tips:

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

Brentford vs Crystal Palace

Main Tip: Over 2.5 Goals

Brentford and Crystal Palace have been in mixed form in recent games, with Brentford winning just 1 of their last 5, while Crystal Palace has won 2 of their last 5. Brentford still has hopes of qualifying for Europe, and this game is very crucial for them. 

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, both teams have scored in the last 3 clashes between these teams.

Other Tips:

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

Everton vs. Sunderland

Main Tip: Both Teams to Score

Sunderland have been in bad form in recent games. They have failed to win their last 5 games and have lost 2. Everton, on the other hand, has failed to win any of their last 4 games in the EPL, losing 2. 

Both teams have scored in Everton’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

Leeds United vs. Brighton

Main Tip: Away to Win

Brighton needs to win this game, as they are fighting to qualify for Europe next season. They have been in good form, winning 3 of their last 5 games and losing 1. However, Leeds are also in great form, as they have similar results in their last 5 games. 

We expect Brighton to win this game, as they can’t afford any further slip-ups. They have won 3 of their last 5 away games. We also expect at least 3 goals in this game, as both teams are in good scoring form. 

Other Tips:

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

Wolves vs Fulham

Main Tip: Away to Win

Both teams have been in bad form. Wolves have lost 4 of their last 5 EPL games and are relegated. Fulham have been in bad form too, having lost 3 of their last 5 EPL games.

We expect Fulham to win this game because Wolves play like they have given up already. Also, Fulham have won against Wolves in their last 2 clashes. 

Other Tips:

  • Over 32.5 Throw-ins
  • Over 7.5 Corner Kicks
  • Over 2.5 Goals

Newcastle vs West Ham

Main Tip: Away to Win

Newcastle are unbeaten in their last 2 games, but have lost 3 of their last 5 EPL games. West Ham are battling relegation with Tottenham, who are playing Chelsea on Monday. West Ham have lost their last 2 games, but they must win this game to have a chance at playing in the EPL next season.

However, we expect both teams to score in this game because both teams have scored in Newcastle’s last 5 games at home. 

Other Tips:

  • Over 2.5 Goals
  • Over 22.5 Shots
  • Both Teams to Score

Arsenal vs Burnley

Main Tip: Home to Win

Arsenal is the most in-form team in the EPL’s recent games. They are really serious about winning this season’s EPL title and are unbeaten in their last 5 games. They have won 4 of their last 5 games. Burnley are already relegated from the EPL and have not won any of their last 5 games, losing 4. 

As mentioned already, a determined Arsenal win is expected in this game, and this game might have more than 2 goals scored, as Arsenal still needs a goal difference over City, in case they might need it on the last day of the season.

Other Tips:

  • Over 2.5 Goals
  • Home Over 13.5 Shots
  • Home Over 4.5 Corner Kicks

Bournemouth vs Manchester City

Main Tip: Both Teams to Score

This game will be very tight. Bournemouth and Man City are teams that can’t even afford a draw in this game. Both teams have similar form, as they are unbeaten in their last 5 games and won 4 of those games. 

Bournemouth wants to qualify for the UCL, while Man City wants to win the EPL title. While we expect City to win this game, both teams should score in this game. They have great forwards, and both teams have scored in each of the last 4 clashes between them.

Other Tips:

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

Chelsea vs Tottenham

Main Tip: Home to Win

Tottenham needs a win badly to avoid being relegated next season. They are unbeaten in their last 4 EPL games, winning 2 of those games. Chelsea has won just 1 of their last 5 games and lost 3. 

While Chelsea looks like the weaker side, they have won each of their last 5 encounters against Tottenham and looked impressive against Liverpool last weekend.

Other Tips:

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