Wow – we are now into week 15 in the Premier League so that we are fast-approaching the halfway stage of the 2017/18.
Man City still head the pack and really it looks as if it’s going to take a major wobble for one of the other teams to catch them, especially with City facing another easy-looking game at home to West Ham on Sunday.
We get going with Chelsea v Newcastle in the Saturday lunchtime clash and the last time the sides met it ended in a 5-1 thrashing to the Londoners.
We’ve six more games at 3pm that include Watford v Spurs and WBA v Crystal Palace, while we’ve another 5:30pm cracker this Saturday as Arsenal host Manchester United – a match that ended 2-0 to the Gunners last term.
Onto Sunday and the remaining two fixtures see south coast rivals Bournemouth entertain Southampton, plus, as mentioned the league leaders, Man City, welcome West Ham in a fixture that ended 3-1 to the home side last season.
As always here at JUICESTORM we’ve got all the games covered from a head-to-head angle, plus our best betting option on each match based on the stats – So, let’s get cracking!
