The second last weekend of the EPL 2025/26 season offers drama a-plenty with Arsenal and Manchester City gunning for the title, and Spurs and West Ham battling to stay up.
There are also European spots up for grabs for Brentford, Brighton, Everton, Bournemouth and, at a stretch Fulham, too so there could not be more at stake across the league.
1.
ASTON VILLA 39 vs LIVERPOOL 50: Villa have a poor record against Liverpool, having only won once in their last 16 Premier League games. And they are not playing at their peak right now either. But despite still being 4th on the log through a topsy turvy campaign, Liverpool don’t quite measure up as granite-solid bankers, so the draw is taken as cover. [2][3]
2.
MANCHESTER UNITED 54 vs NOTTINGHAM FOREST 40: United used to whip Forest repeatedly but that eight match winning streak has come to an end. Not only did Forest win this exact fixture 3-2 last year but they defeated United thrice and drawn once from their last four clashes. That tempers the urge to single United who edge it on the G.G.I. and are 13 places clear on the Log. Connoisseurs of soccer will be following Fernandes closely to see if he can break the all-time record for assists in a season.[1] [2]
3.
WOLVES 0 vs FULHAM 27: at first glance this seems like a walkover for the 11th placed visitors against dead last, Wolves, but they are trying to complete the League double for the first time in 46 campaigns against Wolves. So, again we add the draw to our play.[2][3]
4.
BRENTFORD 48 vs CRYSTAL PALACE 45: One of the reasons Brentford are 7/10 favourites to see off Palace is that is exactly what they’ve done the past six times Crystal Palace has visited the Community Stadium. However, there is little to choose between the sides on the G.G.I. and taking all three results would be safest – but more costly. No quibbles with those keying Brentford, though as it’s possible Palace are focusing on the Conference League final and won’t put up much resistance, as was the case against City on Thursday night.[1]
5.
LEEDS 52 vs BRIGHTON 51: The G.G.I scores this virtually equal in another tight tussle, but the historic trends are completely skewed in favour of the currently in-form Seagulls (competing hard for a place in Europe) who have only lost once in the past 14 matches against Leeds. The home side nevertheless has done tremendously under Farke and are much respected. [1][2][3]
6.
EVERTON 34 vs SUNDERLAND 24: The Hill Dickinson locals will be expecting another home victory for Everton who tend to dominate Sunderland [W16 D6 L4 from past 26 contests.] We need to find more bankers to keep the perm within reasonable limits, so hopes are pinned on the Toffees who might scrape into Europe if they finish with a flourish. [1]
7.
NEWCASTLE 41 vs WEST HAM 27: The Hammers won this exact fixture last year 2-0 and to have any hope of staying up, must repeat the treatment. Dreadful to begin with, they regrouped with new personnel and competed admirably, without getting the “gelukkies”, in the second part of the season. It’s make or break for them, now and that determination/desperation might carry them to victory. But Newcastle are, basically, a better side. Not sure, here. [1][2] [3]
8.
ARSENAL 88 vs BURNLEY 0: It’s extremely rare to have a side quoted at 26/1 to win a soccer match with oddsmakers giving Burnley a measly 3% chance of upsetting the champion elects. Goalie, Raya has, by hook or by crook, kept the most clean sheets (18) of this campaign and a repeat, combined with the goal scoring prowess of Gyokeres, Saka and Trossard should account for dismal Burnley.[1]
9.
BOURNEMOUTH 54 vs MANCHESTER CITY 89: Tuesday’s clash carries pivotal significance for EPL title honors. By beating Crystal Palace during the week, a surging City has pulled within two points of Arsenal. Some squad rotation will be needed as they face Chelsea in Saturday’s FA Cup Final before heading to Dean Court’s Vitality Stadium. Iraola has done a wonderful job with Bournemouth. They are fearsome opposition given the long unbeaten streak they are sustaining. But with City, top of the G.G.I. and in a must-win situation, they are bankered to take things down to the wire. [3]
10.
CHELSEA 49 vs TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR 33: From crucial top of the table swings to nail-biters at the bottom – this is a must win clash for Spurs who are duking it out with West Ham to avoid the plunge. If Chelsea wins the FA Cup on Saturday some may think they may struggle to lift themselves for Tuesday's game and Spurs could face a mid-table side going through the motions. That scenario is unlikely however as Chelsea will relish pushing arch-rivals Spurs over the cliff. [1][2][3]
The Goal Guru’s suggested Interbet EPL 10 perm for the penultimate round of matches is:
2 3 x 1 2 x 2 3 x 1 x 1 2 3 x 1 x 1 2 3 x 1 x 3 x 1 2 3 = R216.00 which can be taken for R21.60 at the ten cents minimum.
An alternative ticket follows:
1 2 3 x 1 x 3 x 1 2 3 x 1 2 3 x 1 x 3 x 1 x 2 3 x 1 2 = R108.00 which can be taken for just R10.80 using the ten- cent minimum
Good luck and enjoy the soccer!
