Alan Shearer's Premier League Previews: Aston Villa to win Midlands derby to commence Matchday 28 | OneFootball

Football... Only Bettor. Listen to the latest episode now.

Wolves v Aston Villa - Friday 20:00, Live on Sky Sports

Wolves have definitely picked up a bit and Villa are waning and don't have a great record against them, especially at Molineux. In games like this I normally say draw, but Villa are just going to have way too much for them.

They've got too much quality in those forward positions.

Bournemouth v Sunderland - Saturday 12:30, Live on TNT Sports

This is a tough one to call, actually. Seeing as Sunderland are missing Xhaka's experience and ability in the middle, and Bournemouth have picked up a bit of form, I'm going to go with a Bournemouth home win.

Burnley v Brentford - Saturday 15:00

Burnley got a good result last time out against Chelsea, but if Brentford were looking for a game to bounce back and get physical in, this is probably the one. I'll say a Brentford away win.

Liverpool v West Ham - Saturday 15:00

West Ham are definitely on the up form-wise whether that's going to be enough I'm not quite sure, they're going up against Liverpool, who had a good result last time out, away to Nottingham Forest. It has to be a Liverpool home win.

If you offered West Ham a point now, they'd snap your hands off, but I'm not sure they'll get one.

Newcastle v Everton - Saturday 15:00

Everton are having a tough time at home and are probably more suited to playing away right now, particularly with the way David Moyes will set them up. But if you look at Newcastle's form and the belief, they've got at St James' Park, I'm backing a Newcastle home win.

A point separating them sums up the league. Everton can't win at home, yet they're in a really decent league position. It would be a different story if Everton had a centre forward, someone who could put goals in the back of the net.

I still think Newcastle might just edge this one because of the belief in Europe this week. There are two home games coming up for Newcastle and realistically if they want European football next season they need to win both, other than winning the Champions League or FA Cup, these are two huge games for them.

Leeds v Manchester City - Saturday 17:30, Live on Sky Sports

Leeds are always a tough nut to crack, especially at home. We saw how tough they are to beat against Chelsea when they were two goals down and that was away from home. But Man City are a completely different kettle of fish.

It'll be a brilliant atmosphere and City do give you chances. They were hanging on against Newcastle last weekend at home, but they are just going to have too much for them.

We're going to say it so many times between now and the end of the season but playing before Arsenal it really is important to pile the pressure on.

If you asked Leeds if they would take a point, they would, but I'm not sure they will get one.

It was a massive win for Brighton last weekend, brilliant for James Milner as well after they left Carlos Baleba out, putting Milner in there. It turned out to be a really wise decision, but I wasn't convinced.

Forest definitely looked better with a real improvement last weekend against Liverpool, albeit not getting the result they wanted. I'm going to sit on the fence a bit here and say a draw. The manager's words to them this week was saying that they're really happy with what they've got, but they need to finish chances.

I still think it'll be between Forest and West Ham as to who goes down.

Fulham v Tottenham - Sunday 14:00, Live on Sky Sports

It was a huge result for Fulham up at Sunderland last week, and there's a real feel-good factor down there right now. As for Spurs, absolutely nothing gives me any confidence they can go away from home and actually win a game.

London derbies, normally I would go for a draw, but nothing gives me confidence about Spurs at this moment in time. You will just hear the rest of the league talking about Tottenham if they were to be beaten again this weekend.

I didn't see any improvement last weekend, so they will have needed a big week on the training pitch to come up with answers.

Man United v Crystal Palace - Sunday 14:00, Live on Sky Sports

With all the noise coming out of Palace right now regarding the manager and the discontent, it's just a mess. They did win last week, and it was a big result for them but I still don't have a single bit of belief in Palace at the moment.

The run that United are on, finding ways to win games, I think they'll do the same again.

Arsenal v Chelsea - Sunday 16:30, Live on Sky Sports

The belief and everything that goes with winning against Tottenham in the way they did, I think Arsenal are just going to do the same to Chelsea and overpower them.

They'll have too much for them all over the pitch. I'm still really not convinced by Chelsea at the back. Defensively, Rosenior keeps picking different personnel and they haven't been great, which has to change if they're going to get into the top four.
