Nottingham Forest v Chelsea
League Placings: 17 v 6

Bye-bye Ange, Bye-bye happiness. Hello, no success, I'll see you on the dole. 
Away Win.

Brighton & Hove Albion v Newcastle United
League Placings: 8 v 12
Current Form Factor: 26 v 15
The above "stats" suggest a home win, so...
Home Win.

Burnley v Leeds United
League Placings: 8 v 12
Current Form Factor: 7 v 19
Contradicting "stats" here. Shame there's not an option between draw & away win.
Draw.

Crystal Palace v A. F. C. Bournemouth
League Placings: 10 v 4
Current Form Factor: 33 v 27
Close, but I suspect a sneaky 3 points here for Bournemouth.
Away Win.
18 October 2025 - 15:00
Manchester City v Everton
League Placings: 5 v 13
Current Form Factor: 28 v 15
Above "stats" again suggest a home win. Who am I to argue with a geek?
Home win.

Sunderland v Wolverhampton Wanderers
League Placings: 7 v 20
Current Form Factor: 28 v 5
Wolves still hunting for that elusive first win. The hunt goes on.
Home win.
18 October 2025 - 17:30
Fulham v Arsenal
League Placings: 14 v 1
Current Form Factor: 22 v 31
Why bother? Fulham will huff & puff, but the Arsenal house will stand. Not even a chinny-chin-chin will blow the door in.
Away win.
19 October 2025 - 14:00
Tottenham Hotspur v Aston Villa
League Placings: 3 v 9
Current Form Factor: 21 v 10
Hoping for an away win here, bit I suspect that's all it is - hope. 3 points for the Lilywhites - but only just.
Home win.
19 October 2025 - 16:30
Liverpool v Manchester United
League Placings: 2 v 11
Current Form Factor: 30 v 19
Well. We all want Manchester United to do badly here, don't we?... DON'T WE???!!!
Home win. Hopefully an embarrassingly easy one.

West Ham United v Brentford
League Placings: 19 v 16
Current Form Factor: 11 v 21
We all know what we want, we all know what we need.
Will the planned boycott have an impact?
In truth, I suspect not; many will have already decided a 6-pack in front of the telly rather than partaking of the wonderful autumnal world-class evening transport connections at Stratford.
Still, home win? (*sighs*); that's what my heart says, but...
Draw.
