EPL: 4 matches with likely shock results this weekend
This weekend, Match Day 24 fixtures will be played across the UK.
Which four matches are we likely to see shock results?
1. Man City vs Everton: The champions need to be careful as they welcome Everton to the Etihad. First of all, because this is a lunchtime kick-off. Matches played this early are always tricky. Also, Sean Dyche’s men are on a run of three draws, as they seek to win points that will keep them in the division.
2. Liverpool vs Burnley: Jurgen Klopp’s men were well beaten 3-1 last weekend at Arsenal. It was so comprehensive that their goal was scored by the Gunners’ Gabriel Magalhaes. Although Burnley have not pulled up trees under Vincent Kompany, they could pose a problem for Liverpool, who will still be without their talisman, Mohamed Salah.
3. West Ham vs Arsenal: Mikel Arteta’s men have already played the Hammers twice this season and lost both times. The first was a 3-1 win in the FA Cup, while they were beaten 2-0 in front of their supporters just before the New Year. Arsenal will also do well to remember that the London Stadium is where their title chase started to unravel last season.

4. Crystal Palace vs Chelsea: Monday Night Football will see Chelsea travel to Selhurst Park for a London Derby. Although Crystal Palace’s form has been up and down, they will prove to be a handful for the Blues, who are out of sorts this season. Under the lights and in front of their fans, Roy Hodgson’s men could pull off a shock result.
