Chelsea vs Liverpool
We begin Suo’s New Year Millions in London.
The Premier League is set to serve us a mouth-watering encounter this weekend which will see third-placed Liverpool travel to the Bridge to take on Chelsea. Liverpool will be looking to bounce back from Tuesday’s shocking defeat at Leicester City when they head to Stamford Bridge on Sunday. For the Blues, it’s been a December to forget considering how they’ve stuttered in the league this month picking just 9points in the process from a possible 18.
The next one month will be crucial in the blues title chase with injuries and Covid hitting their camp. Ben Chilwell is out of the season, Reece James is reportedly out of the season after picking up a knock against Brighton on Wednesday, and their number one goalkeeper Mendy heading to the Africa Cup of Nations, it seems Thomas Tuchel has got his work cut out for him this period.
For The Reds, no one envisaged a loss to Leicester which saw Salah miss from the spot for the first time in four years, currently third on the log behind Chelsea and City with a game in hand, The Reds can still dream of a title push despite the nine-point gap between them and Manchester City.
The reverse fixture ended in a 1-1 draw at Anfield, but Liverpool have won their last two league games at the Bridge.
PREDICTION: Expect a cagey affair, I see an Under 3.5 with odds of 1.31 @BestBet360.
Arsenal vs Manchester City
The Gunners will be back in Premier League action after a six-day absence as they welcome league leaders and defending champions Manchester City to The Emirates on New Year’s Day. The Hosts head into this game off a 5-0 demolition of Norwich City away from home and are on a five-match winning streak across all competitions.
The Citizens City have won 10 in a row in the Premier League and are unbeaten away from home in the competition since the opening weekend of the season back in August. They have been able to open an eight-point gap and a win against Arsenal will see them extend the gap to 11 by the time Chelsea face Liverpool later in the weekend.
A worrisome stat for the home side is their inability to score at home in their last four league games against the Citizens and will also be without their manager Mikel Arteta who tested positive for Covid.
Another big one for Suo’s New Year Millions
PREDICTION: With both teams goalscoring abilities, I will go with an Over 3.5 with odds of 1.52 @BestBet360.

Manchester United vs Wolves
Seventh-placed Manchester United welcome eight-placed Wolves to Old Trafford on Monday in a must-win game for Ralf Rangnick, who must get all three points to keep his European hopes alive. The hosts came from behind to secure a 1-1 draw in their last game against Newcastle at St. James’ Park on Monday putting up a dismal performance in the process. They did recover t o hit Burnley 3-1 in their next game, though.
The Wanderers will be gunning for revenge having lost the reverse fixture 0-1 at the Molineux Stadium in August. Despite Wolves’ mixed performances this season they’ve been decent on the road, picking up four wins, two draws with three losses in ten matches.
The home form of the Red Devils has been terrible, they’ve lost three home league games, won four with one draw and a game against the Wanderers is another tricky test.
PREDICTION: A straight win for either side with odds of 1.23 @BestBet360

Watford vs Tottenham
Tottenham travel to Vicarage Road on New Year’s Day hoping to put their disappointing 1-1 draw on Tuesday against Southampton behind them. For the hosts, they suffered a 1-4 defeat at home in their last game against West Ham.
Under Antonio Conte, we’ve seen a new look and different Spurs side with Harry Kane gradually finding his scoring boots once again scoring three goals in three matches. Spurs are currently on a seven-game unbeaten run in the Premier League, picking up 15 points from a possible 21.
The Hornets have lost their last five matches and they sit 17th just two points above Burnley and have managed just one victory in their last eightat the Vicarage Road.
