Newcastle United vs Chelsea
Newcastle United have responded emphatically from the deflating derby setback to Sunderland, claiming a thrilling 2-1 triumph over Fulham to march into the EFL Cup semi-finals during the week's midpoint, courtesy of Lewis Miley's last-gasp winner.
The Magpies will be aiming to build upon that success with a league triumph against the Stamford Bridge outfit, and a retreat to St James' Park will undoubtedly embolden their conviction. The statistics speak volumes: they have won five, drawn one and lost only two of their eight home EPL encounters, while they have also dominated all of their last four home meetings with Chelsea.
While Chelsea remain impressive on the road this term, collecting the joint-second best points tally away from home in the league (a robust return), the Blues have been disappointing in recent weeks. With a difficult trip to St James' Park, we are backing the Magpies to emerge victorious.
Newcastle United to win, 2.74 – 3T82ZS5
Manchester City vs West Ham United
The striking sensation's phenomenal goalscoring legacy since joining Manchester City has maintained its trajectory this season, with the goal machine already plundering 23 goals in 22 games across all competitions, featuring finding the net three in his last two encounters.
Haaland has been particularly lethal against West Ham for Pep Guardiola's side, scoring nine goals in six appearances against the Hammers. With such stunning history, we are backing the sublime forward to perpetuate his devastating record with a further goal.
Erling Haaland to score anytime, 1.40 – 3T83RWG
Spurs Host the Reds
Hugo Ekitike delivered a stunning start to life at Liverpool before experiencing a barren period throughout October and November, but the French forward has reclaimed scoring ways in December.
A brace against Leeds United was followed by another brace in Liverpool's dominant 2-0 triumph over Brighton & Hove Albion, gifting the striker with four goals in his last two English Premier League outings.
As Liverpool are set to take on a Tottenham Hotspur side that have been especially underwhelming at home—taking just eight points from eight home league games, while they have also shipped a alarming 21 strikes in just 16 EPL matches—we are backing the Reds to have considerable attacking success.
Given the goalscoring form of Ekitike, we are backing the striker to get on the scoresheet in this one.
Hugo Ekitike to score anytime, 2.30 – 3T83TJV

Midlands Showdown
Unai Emery's side have lost merely one of their last 32 matches at Villa Park across all competitions, while they have also triumphed in all of their last nine contests in all competitions, blessing them with plenty of confidence as they steel themselves to face an remarkably erratic Manchester United team.
While the Red Devils have lost just one of their last 10 encounters, Ruben Amorim's side have won only two of their last seven EPL encounters, and they are coming into this one off the back of a frantic 4-4 draw with Bournemouth—underlining their vulnerability at the back.
Although Manchester United are set to give Aston Villa a difficult test, notably in defence as the Red Devils possess the joint-second best attack in the league with 30 goals registered, we expect Aston Villa will stand resolute and deliver the victory.
Aston Villa to win, 2.14 – 3T83VMZ
