EPL Matches This Week
The following matches that are scheduled to take place this week are briefly explained with odds derived from the bet365.com site:
Arsenal F.C. vs. A.F.C. Bournemouth
In Round 36, Arsenal is ready to compete against Bournemouth on May 4, 2024, at Emirates Stadium in London in the EPL showdown 2023-2024. Arsenal is coming off an astounding triumph in the north London derby against Tottenham by a margin of one point. The second half was a complete drop for Arsenal, and their complete gameplay was witnessed only in the first half thanks to Bukayo Saka, Kai Havertz, and Tottenham’s Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg’s own goal. As of now, Arsenal is ruling the English Premier League table with 80 points; however, the recent performance of Manchester City made them move forward in the table, and now they are one point different from Arsenal. This made it critical for Arsenal to win the upcoming matches and mark their first stable position.
Bournemouth head into this matchup with a second-straight victory against Brighton with a controlling score of 3-0. After receiving a yellow card for roughening, Marcos Senesi scored the first goal for Bournemouth in the 13th minute. Enes Unal and Justin Kluivert scored the other two goals in the second half. The performance of Bournemouth this season could have been better, and at the same time, it was not below par. So far, they are in a safer zone without involvement in the relegation battle or other Champions and Europa League group stages. With a record of 13 wins, nine draws, and 13 losses, they were placed 10th, and their points were almost similar to those of 9th-place Chelsea. With recent form performances, Arsenal will have the edge to win this game.
Manchester City F.C. vs. Wolverhampton Wanderers F.C.
This weekend saw another exciting clash between Manchester City and Wolves on May 4, 2024, at Etihad Stadium in Manchester. In this 2023–2024 EPL season, Manchester City showed their complete resilience to move their game level upward to grab their fourth straight English Premier title. Even though Real Madrid shattered Manchester City’s Champions League dreams in the semifinals, now they are looking to watch their strong offensive and defensive performances. For this game, they are coming off with three consecutive victories: two matches for the EPL, and one for the FA Cup (England). The notable point about their three consecutive victories is that they didn’t allow their opponents to score a single point in the game, and their opponents Nottingham, Brighton, and Chelsea left the ground without scoring a single point. So, we can expect the same aggressive performance in this upcoming match.
On the other hand, the Wolves’ winless run at home rebounded with an incredible victory in their third straight game against Luton at their home ground, which was quite impressive with a score of 2-1. Hee-Chan Hwang and Toti were the notable players on game day who led the team toward success. In their last head-to-head encounter at the Etihad Stadium, Manchester City blew off Wolves with a score of 3-0. Still, at the same time, after this match, they both met again on September 30, 2024, at Molineux Stadium (Wolverhampton), and Manchester City lost the game by a margin of one point. While looking at the recent performance of Manchester City after their disappointing loss in the Champions League semifinals, they are not ready to miss this opportunity, and they will focus more than before and win this game.
Brighton & Hove Albion F.C. vs. Aston Villa F.C.
The forthcoming Premier League showdown on May 5, 2024, at Amex Stadium in Brighton, showcases the epic showdown between Brighton and Aston Villa. Both teams concluded their previous head-to-head clash with a 6-1 victory over Aston Villa, and this dominant triumph will make this clash more intense to pay back what Brighton received on that game day. Brighton suffered their second consecutive defeat against Bournemouth during their previous encounter, scoring 3-0. In the entire game, Brighton showed a complete underperformance, and, to mention, in the second half, they were involved in changing substitutions, but nothing helped them score a single point in the game. Regarding their game statistics, they had a ball possession rate of 70%, 13 goal attempts, and one goal on a shot. Throughout their performance this season, they were 12th with 44 points.
Aston Villa is showing a consistent performance this season, which has helped them maintain their fourth position in the league with a record of 20 wins, seven draws, and eight losses. In their previous matchup, Aston Villa and Chelsea ended up in a draw with a score of 2-2. Once the game started, Chelsea’s own goal by Marc Cucurella and the second goal from Morgan Rogers made them draw the game rather than defeat. On the match statistics, Aston Villa has a ball possession rate of 28%, nine goal-goal attempts, and four shots on goal. In-homeBrighton needed to catch up in home games, but at the same time, Aston Villa was excellent at both home and away games, so this would be an advantage for them in defeating Brighton. Considering both teams’ overall performances and pros and cons, Aston Villa is ahead here, and they will win this game.
Liverpool F.C. vs. Tottenham Hotspur F.C.
On May 5, 2024, Tottenham is making a road trip to host Liverpool at Anfield in Liverpool in an exciting EPL fixture. Where only three rounds were left for the title race, every team put forth their complete performance to make history this season. Likewise, Liverpool stands third with 75 points and heavily competes for the Champions League group stage. Looking at their recent results, they are entering with a mixed bag of results, which will raise the question of why there is a sudden inconsistent performance arising from their end and what will happen if this continues in the title race. So, considering these factors in the balance of the three games, they have to take time to rebound themselves and make them prefer the fire playoff battles. Meanwhile, Liverpool have a great offensive and defensive side with the help of Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk.
On the other hand, Tottenham suffered their second straight loss against table-topping Arsenal with a score of 2–3. Only Heung-Min Son and Cristian Gabriel Romero were able to score points on the game day, and in addition to the early own goal from Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, it was an extra advantage for the opponent to win the game; otherwise, most probably, the match will end in a draw. Tottenham is in fifth place with 60 points and is fighting for the Europa League group stage. In this season, Tottenham’s offensive and defensive record is that they scored 32 goals and conceded 49 goals, and the goal-scoring average is 2.13 and the goal-scoring average is 1.52. Their top scorers were Heung-Min Son and Richarlison, who are contributing more to the team’s success. Therefore, Liverpool will likely win this game with a potent offense and defense.
Crystal Palace F.C. vs. Manchester United F.C.
Selhurst Park in London is ready to play a match between Crystal Palace and Manchester United on May 7, 2024. Crystal Palace is hoping to continue to show their consistent performance, and Manchester United is looking to improve their level on the table to grab a place in the Europa League group stage. When Crystal Palace replaced Roy Hodgson with Oliver Glasner, they had high hopes for a turnaround. Since the Austrian was appointed, the team has won only one out of five games. Their unbalanced performance placed them in the 14th position in the league standings, and they won ten, drew ten, and suffered 15 losses. As we mentioned above, being inconsistent is the primary thing that comes to mind about Crystal Palace. However, they have shown excellent scoring ability in their recent games, scoring at least one goal in their previous four games, and they were only able to manage two clean sheets.
Manchester United is momentarily preparing for their entry into the FA Cup finals and getting ready to face the top Manchester City. In their English Premier League journey, they were in 6th place with 16 wins, six draws, and 12 losses, struggling to achieve their desired spot. In their prior match, Manchester United and Burnley concluded the game in a draw with a score of 1-1. Antony was the game-savor of the game, rescuing the team from defeat. Before this coming match, both teams met on September 30, 2023. Manchester United lost the game without scoring a single point, and Crystal Palace scored one. But Manchester United was highly dominant over Crystal Palace before a few matches. Even though both teams lacked specific points, Manchester United’s current form was one step ahead of Crystal Palace, so they will have a higher possibility of winning this game.
