EVERTON vs ASTON VILLA – Saturday, 6pm
The Toffees seem to be on a different trajectory since Sean Dyche took charge and they host Villa looking to win a second straight game.
Everton come into the game on the back of a 1-0 victory against Leeds, lifting them out of the relegation zone and into 16th place with 21 points.
Meanwhile, Villa are on a torrid run of form that has seen them lose 3 consecutive games ahead of this match.
Despite the run of losses, Aston Villa are in 11th place with 28 points and are desperate to bounce back to winning ways.
Everton have not beaten Villa in the league since 2016 and a win here could see them jump up at least two more spots on the EPL table.
Andros Townsend and Dominic Calvert-Lewin remain the main injury concerns for the hosts but they are confident they can make due without their services.
Everton have won their last two home games and it is unlikely that they will lose here, a draw could be the most likely outcome at Goodison Park.
VALENCIA vs REAL SOCIEDAD – Saturday, 11pm
It’s desperate times for Valencia who are second from last on the La Liga table with 20 points, 23 less than Sociedad who are third in the standings.
Valencia have lost all of their last 5 games, conceding 8 goals and scoring just twice in that run.
Sociedad on the other hand have lost twice in their last 5 games and have struggled for points, winning just one game in that duration.
The last 4 games that have been played between these two teams have resulted in a draw but Valencia are hoping to get their first win since January 18.
Top Uruguayan forward Edinson Cavani will sit this one out due to a muscle injury and this may give Justin Kluivert the chance to start.
Sociedad cannot afford to drop points as Atletico Madrid are hot on their heels for that top 3 position and will put their best foot forward in this match.
With their unconvincing runs of form in the recent matches, this game could once again result in another stalemate.
TOTTENHAM vs CHELSEA – Sunday, 4:30pm
This Sunday’s London derby brings with it a real sense of urgency especially for Graham Potter’s Chelsea.
The Blues were stunned by bottom side Southampton as they lost 1-0 at Stamford Bridge last weekend to leave them in 10th place with 31 points.
The defeat means that Chelsea have not won a game in their last five and defeat here could see them drop yet another place on the log.
Spurs are coming off a morale-boosting 2-0 win in yet another London derby as they saw off West Ham at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The victory saw them reclaim 4th place with 42 points and will be looking to record back to back wins to solidify their place in the top four.
Despite splashing cash on signings, Chelsea are yet to find their footing and could experience another terrible outing here.
Tottenham have not been at their best either and this could make for a very cagey encounter. Over 1.5 goals could be the best bet in this game.
