It’s always a lively conversation when Dave and the unbeatable Emma take the reins, giving football fans plenty to debate, cheer, or argue about. Whether you’re Team Dave or Team Emma, one thing’s certain – this week’s fixtures are packed with drama and excitement.
Let’s break down the latest standings, bold predictions, and the must-watch matches to look out for.
Week 25 Results: Emma Dominates Again
Before diving into Week 26, let’s close the chapter on Week 25. It was yet another week of glory for Emma, who blew Dave out of the water with her spot-on predictions. While Dave managed just four points, Emma cruised to 12 points, thanks to her dead-on calls for matches like Fulham’s 2-1 victory over Forest and Bournemouth’s 3-1 win against Southampton.
With this win, Emma’s total now stands at 177 points, towering over Dave’s 127 points. The scoreline? Emma 16 weeks, Dave 6 weeks. Dave admits he’s got a mountain to climb, needing to win 11 of the next 13 weeks to stand any chance. Looks tough, doesn’t it?
Looking Ahead: Week 26 Premier League Matches
There’s no time to dwell on losses when another action-packed matchweek is around the corner. From crucial battles at the top to intense clashes at the bottom, here’s how Emma and Dave see it playing out.
Friday Night Kick-Off: Leicester vs Brentford
The Foxes are struggling, particularly at the back, going 21 matches without a clean sheet. Brentford, meanwhile, have turned things around on the road and look like a solid bet.
Predictions
- Emma: Leicester 1-2 Brentford
- Dave: Leicester 1-2 Brentford
It seems neither of them is backing the Foxes here, and Brentford fans should feel optimistic.
Saturday’s Matches
Everton vs Manchester United David Moyes’ Everton have looked more confident at Goodison Park recently, while United appear a bit shaky. The Toffees might just edge this one.
- Emma: Everton 2-1 Manchester United
- Dave: Everton 2-1 Manchester United
It’s another unanimous pick, and both feel Everton will take all three points in this early kick-off.
Arsenal vs West Ham Arsenal’s defence continues to impress, with Emma confident they’ll keep a clean sheet while sealing the win.
- Emma: Arsenal 2-0 West Ham
- Dave: Arsenal 3-0 West Ham
Both are predicting a home victory, with Dave expecting the Gunners to dominate even further.
Bournemouth vs Wolves Wolves are hitting a more confident stride compared to earlier in the season. Bournemouth, however, are no pushovers.
- Emma: Bournemouth 2-2 Wolves
- Dave: Wait-and-see (final prediction during Wolves’ preview show)
There’s plenty of hope here for Wolves fans. Will they edge it, or are the points being split?
Fulham vs Crystal Palace Fulham remain tough to beat at home, and both agree on their superiority for this fixture.
- Emma: Fulham 2-1 Crystal Palace
- Dave: Fulham 2-1 Crystal Palace
Another matching prediction. Fulham are the clear favourites in this London derby.
Ipswich vs Tottenham Despite their inconsistencies, Spurs are the favourites. Emma calls it safe with a clean win for Spurs, while Dave foresees a closer game.
- Emma: Ipswich 0-2 Tottenham
- Dave: Ipswich 1-1 Tottenham
This match could swing either way, but Spurs need to deliver.
Southampton vs Brighton The Seagulls are clearly the better side here, and Southampton’s struggles almost guarantee Brighton’s triumph.
- Emma: Southampton 0-3 Brighton
- Dave: Southampton 1-3 Brighton
No surprises – Brighton should breeze through this one.
Aston Villa vs Chelsea An unpredictable clash, with both sides hungry for redemption after disappointing recent results.
- Emma: Aston Villa 2-2 Chelsea
- Dave: Aston Villa 2-2 Chelsea
This one could be a thriller if both sides deliver.
Sunday Showdowns
Newcastle vs Nottingham Forest Forest are battling hard tfor European football, but Newcastle’s quality may be too much to handle.
- Emma: Newcastle 2-1 Nottingham Forest
- Dave: Newcastle 2-0 Nottingham Forest
The Toon Army will expect three points at home, and it looks like the predictions agree.
Manchester City vs Liverpool Both sides have had wobbly spells, making this an intriguing contest. Neither team will want to lose ground in the race to the top.
- Emma: Manchester City 2-2 Liverpool
- Dave: Manchester City 1-1 Liverpool
Will it be a high-scoring draw or an evenly split stalemate? Time will tell!
