Robbie Savage Premier League acca: Man Utd resurgence, Newcastle slip up and Arsenal to crumble

Robbie Savage 6 October 2023

Planet Sport Bet ambassador Robbie Savage looks ahead to another enthralling weekend of Premier League action which includes a Sunday evening blockbuster between Arsenal and Manchester City.

Saturday 12:30 - Luton Town vs Tottenham

Spurs have got a great record against promoted sides. They’ve won 12 out of 14 when they’ve faced promoted sides in the Premier League. 

This season already they beat Burnley, they beat Sheffield United. This will make it a hat-trick beating Luton Town away from home. 

I’m going for Spurs to win 2-0. 

Robbie’s Tip: Luton 0-2 Tottenham

Saturday 15:00 - Burnley vs Chelsea

Burnley with a great win against Luton Town, as well as Chelsea’s against Fulham. 

Can Chelsea win back-to-back games for the first time since March in the Premier League?

Quite a remarkable stat, just to think this Chelsea side haven’t won back-to-back Premier League games since March. Quite unbelievable.

I think it will be back-to-back games. Burnley’s record against Chelsea is not great. I think Chelsea will go to Turf Moor, both teams to score and a Chelsea 2-1 win. 

Robbie’s Tip: Burnley 1-2 Chelsea

Saturday 15:00 - Everton vs Bournemouth

Everton can’t score goals at home. They’ve only scored 11 goals in their last 17 home Premier League games and they’ve lost all four Premier League home games this season. 

Bournemouth’s record is not great. I’m going to go for Sean Dyche’s side to finally get a Premier League win at home this season. I’m going 2-0 to Everton. 

Robbie’s Tip: Everton 2-0 Bournemouth

Saturday 15:00 - Fulham vs Sheffield United

I think Fulham start favourites just because of Sheffield United’s record away from home against London clubs in the Premier League. 

Their record is only two wins from the last 31 away games in London in the competition. 

I think Fulham will win this one, I think both teams to score in a 2-1 win.

Robbie’s Tip: Fulham 2-1 Sheffield United

Saturday 15:00 - Man United vs Brentford

It’s United’s worst start to a Premier League season, but Brentford’s record at Old Trafford is not very good.

They lost their last five visits to Old Trafford, their last win came back in February 1937. It’s unthinkable United could lose this one.

What makes me think United will win this game? I think they’ll win it because of Brentford’s form at Old Trafford - not because United are playing well. 

I just think on this occasion, because the pressure is that much on Erik ten Hag, Manchester United and the players, they’re going to have to win it. 

That’s why I’m going with a 2-1 win for Manchester United. 

Robbie’s Tip: Man United 2-1 Brentford

Saturday 16:30 - Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest

Can Palace beat Forest at the seventh attempt in the Premier League? Haven’t won in the previous six. 

Nottingham Forest on the road, we know they can score goals, they’ve scored at the Emirates, they’ve scored at Stamford Bridge. 

Palace, on the back of going to Old Trafford and winning. 

I think both teams will score, but I’m going with a Crystal Palace 3-1 win. 

Robbie’s Tip: Crystal Palace 3-1 Nottingham Forest

Sunday 14:00 - Brighton vs Liverpool

Obviously Brighton got hammered 6-1 last weekend against Aston Villa, tough game against Marseille coming back so well to draw 2-2. Liverpool were quite comfortable in their win. 

I think Brighton played a quite strong team against Marseille and I think Liverpool will go, in this game, very very strong. I think Liverpool have better strength in depth than Brighton.

I think Liverpool, for me, will be Man City’s biggest title contenders along with Arsenal. 

Even though Brighton are doing unbelievably well, I’m going for both teams to score in a Liverpool 2-1 win. 

Robbie’s Tip: Brighton 1-2 Liverpool

Sunday 14:00 - West Ham vs Newcastle 

Newcastle’s record in London over the past couple of seasons has been very very good. Both teams absolutely flying. 

Newcastle United beating PSG - that atmosphere at St James’ Park was unbelievable. 

I was in Freiburg to see West Ham have a terrific performance and beating a very good side. I thought Bowen and Paqueta were absolutely outstanding on the night. 

I think both teams will score in this one. Bowen as a centre forward and Paqueta as a 10. Newcastle have so many attacking options. 

Both teams to score, but I think West Ham, with a fantastic start to the season, to win it 2-1. 

Robbie’s Tip: West Ham 2-1 Newcastle 

Sunday 14:00 - Wolves vs Aston Villa

Wolves have got a good record against Aston Villa winning three of their last four meetings. 

Aston Villa left it last on Thursday to win that game with a late John McGinn goal. 

Wolves had a free week. They should be absolutely buzzing to play this fixture after beating Manchester City. 

I think it will be a close game, I think Wolves might be a little bit fresher than Aston Villa. But Aston Villa have got a very good squad now.

I’m going to go for a draw, 1-1. 

Robbie’s Tip: Wolves 1-1 Aston Villa 

Sunday 16:30 - Arsenal vs Manchester City 

Arsenal’s record against Man City is quite dramatically poor. In their last 12 Premier League meetings, they’ve not won one and they’ve only scored five goals while City have scored 33. 

Arsenal losing in Europe in midweek. City were very comfortable against Leipzig, I was there to cover the game, I thought Rico Lewis was outstanding. 

Haaland, will he get on the scoresheet? I think he will. I think the run for Man City will continue. I think it will be a good game. I’m going for City to win 2-1.

Robbie’s Tip: Arsenal 1-2 Man City
