Big week ahead in the Premier League and it feels even bigger if you’re Wolves. This is your handy guide to the weekend, with every prediction in one place and the big Wolves talking points. Ready? Let’s go.
Last Week’s Prediction Results
Close one last time out. Dave edged it 5-4 in the head-to-head, thanks to one exact score that proved decisive. His perfect pick was Forest 0-3 Chelsea, and that ended up being the difference in a tight set of calls.
There was a bit of comedy too, with steamed-up specs causing chaos and the immortal line, “in this house, wife is always right”.

Friday Night Kickoff
Leeds United vs West Ham United
- Emma: Leeds 1 West Ham 1
- Dave: Leeds 2 West Ham 1
Both flagged issues at the back for these two, and neither side has been free-scoring. Leeds get extra time on the training pitch, which Dave thinks tips it. The chat leaned towards a narrow home win, though a few backed a draw or a clean sheet that felt unlikely on form.
Saturday 3:00 Kickoffs
Chelsea vs Sunderland
- Emma: Chelsea 2 Sunderland 0
- Dave: Chelsea 3 Sunderland 0
The room didn’t see much drama here. Hard to spot a Sunderland surprise given the gulf in quality this season. Chelsea to control it, with a few in the chat pushing for a bigger scoreline.
Newcastle United vs Fulham
- Emma: Newcastle 2 Fulham 1
- Dave: Newcastle 2 Fulham 0
Newcastle started slowly this season but are finding gears now. Fulham have lost three on the spin. Both backed the Magpies to come through with control.
Manchester United vs Brighton & Hove Albion
- Emma: Manchester United 1 Brighton 2
- Dave: Manchester United 1 Brighton 1
United still look unconvincing. Brighton are well coached, measured, and have only lost once in eight with five wins in that run.

Sunday Showdowns
Brentford vs Liverpool
- Emma: Brentford 1 Liverpool 1
- Dave: Brentford 2 Liverpool 2
Liverpool picked up a Champions League win in the week, but they have lost three of their recent away games. Brentford are mixed, but they can turn it on at home. Both went for a draw, though the chat leaned heavily towards Liverpool.
Arsenal vs Crystal Palace
- Emma: Arsenal 3 Palace 1
- Dave: Arsenal 2 Palace 1
Palace had a wild 3-3 with Bournemouth and showed cracks at the back. Arsenal to press that weakness and get it done at home.
Aston Villa vs Manchester City
- Emma: Aston Villa 2 Manchester City 3
- Dave: Aston Villa 1 Manchester City 2
Villa are trending up and look confident. City still have the extra gear and enough quality to edge a proper contest.
Bournemouth vs Nottingham Forest
- Emma: Bournemouth 2 Forest 1
- Dave:Bournemouth 3 Forest 1
Plenty of chat about Forest’s turmoil. Decisions driven by emotion, constant changes, and players who must be confused by the churn. Bournemouth at home is a tough task, and there has not been time for any new setup to bed in.
The Big One: Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Burnley
- Emma: Wolves 1 Burnley 1
- Dave: holding his score for the Saturday preview
This is massive. Wolves have gone a long stretch without a league win, and the pressure is fully on to end it here. Burnley will likely come with a must-not-lose mindset after their recent win. Expect them to sit deep, waste time where possible, and challenge Wolves to break them down. Emma sees frustration and a point each.
The bigger question is what happens if Wolves do not win. The mood could turn sour. The Sunderland match wasn’t toxic, but it wasn’t pleasant either. Fans feel weary. Many are looking back longingly to a side that fought, pressed, and had a clear identity. Lose this one and it could turn very uncomfortable.
Everton vs Tottenham Hotspur
- Emma: Everton 2 Spurs 1
- Dave: Everton 1 Spurs 1
Everton have been tidy at home, winning three and drawing two this season. Spurs started hot, then tailed off. Emma sees a narrow home win, Dave sees a draw.
Conclusion
A huge Premier League weekend is here, and for Wolves, it feels like a crossroads.
