Arsenal vs Fulham | April 1 | 2:45PM ET

Arsenal -250 | Fulham +760 | Draw +355

The international break is all wrapped up and Arsenal must return to the sobering thought of having to make up a significant twelve-point gap on league leaders Liverpool with only nine games of the season remaining.

That looks like a nigh impossible task for the Gunners, especially with them holding a -13 inferior goal difference to Liverpool as well, but they’ll need to put those thoughts to one side on Tuesday as they attempt to overcome a Fulham side that owns a solid record against them across recent seasons.

Arsenal haven’t beaten Fulham across any competition in over two years, with their West London counterparts coming out with five points banked (one win and two draws) in their previous three meetings against the Gunners.

The Cottagers’ recent road record continues to impress as well, with Fulham winning three of their last four games away from home, including an excellent road win against Newcastle two months ago.

Arsenal do own a much better home record against Fulham however, not having lost to them across any of their last fourteen head-to-heads inside this venue, along with the Gunners owning the best HT record in the league this season as well, even over the mighty Liverpool.

We expect more of the same in this one also in what is a must-win game for Arsenal in midweek, and expect the Gunners to deliver early against the Cottagers on Tuesday.

Premier League Prediction: 1H Arsenal ML (+105)

Newcastle vs Brentford | April 2 | 2:45PM ET

Newcastle -140 | Brentford +320 | Draw +330

Brentford takes on Newcastle over at St. James’ Park on Wednesday night with no team in the league hotter away from home right now than the Bees have been.

Brentford has amassed five wins, no losses, and an average of 2.67 PPG across their last six road starts, the joint-#1 record in the league overall, and they will obviously be buoyed by their recent success heading north-east to take on the Magpies in midweek.

Newcastle, for their part, got back to winning ways at home prior to the international break with a pulsating 4-3 shootout victory over Nottingham Forest, followed by another win and a draw away from home. The Magpies’ home form has been a cause for concern this season however, with Newcastle barely sitting inside the top half of the table in points accumulated on home soil this season.

Both teams haven’t been at their best defensively either, with Brentford sitting bottom-six this season in defensive xGA, while only the bottom three teams of Leicester, Ipswich, and Southampton have allowed more total goals at the back than Newcastle have since the start of the calendar year.

We’re expecting even more goals in this one on Wednesday, especially with each of the last three head-to-head meetings between the two teams seeing an average goal total of 5.3 GPG.

Take this one to go Over the total on Wednesday in what should be another high-octane affair up on Tyneside.

Premier League Prediction: Over 3 (-140)

Chelsea vs Tottenham | April 3 | 3:00PM ET

Chelsea -150 | Tottenham +360 | Draw +355

Chelsea’s strong start to open up the 2024/25 EPL campaign has dampened off significantly across recent months, with the Blues now sitting a full 21 points off league leaders Liverpool at the top of the table, along with generating a paltry 1.4 PPG (14th in the league) since January 1st also.

However, with Brighton, Newcastle, and Manchester City all nipping at Chelsea’s heels, the Blues are going to need to find some way to respond fast if they’re intent on holding onto that last Champions League spot, especially with only nine games of the season remaining.

Tottenham meanwhile, after a brief winning run of three straight games in the league, have fallen back into mediocrity recently with no wins from their last three Premier League games, and failing to find the back of the net in two of those three games also.

The good news for Chelsea however is that despite their poor run of form across 2025 as a whole, they once again seem to have hit a bit of a purple patch, especially at home, where they’ve generated 2.17 PPG across their last six starts in West London, the third-best mark in the league overall.

On top of that, the Blues rank 5th in the league in first-half performance this season, averaging the joint-4th best goal differential inside the opening 45 minutes also.

Put those two factors together here in midweek and we expect Chelsea to strike first against a struggling Tottenham side in Thursday’s big London derby.

Premier League Prediction: Tottenham +0.5 (-120)
