Gameweek 16 of the English Premier League starts this Saturday with a lot of exciting matches. Man City losing in the last round will make the league more competitive, as there is only a six-point difference between the top four teams, so what should we expect from the most interesting matchups this Saturday?
Crystal Palace are having a tough time in the EPL, as they have won only twice in their last 12 games. Liverpool are doing very well and are only two points below the leaders, Arsenal. Mohamed Salah is one goal away from joining the top 10 Premier League all-time scorers, and he will also be looking for his 200th goal for Liverpool. Salah has scored eight goals against the Eagles, so his scoring chances look good here.
Manchester United beat Chelsea with an impressive performance on Wednesday, having over 4.0 xG at home. The Red Devils have gone over the total in nine of their last 13 games, so they have had a lot of high-scoring matches. Bournemouth have one of the worst defenses in the league, and they have gone over the total in eight of their last 10 games, so this can easily turn into a goal-feast.
Aston Villa shocked everyone by beating Man City 1-0 on Wednesday, forcing Guardiola to admit that the Lions were a better team that evening. The Villans are still unbeaten at home this season, but the best football bookies have Arsenal as slight favorites in this matchup. Bukayo Saka has eight goals and 10 assists for the Gunners in all competitions this season, and he has had at least a goal or assist in six consecutive games, so an attacking return here is very possible for the English forward.
