Bournemouth 2-3 Brentford @ 20/1
Brentford managed to hold on for three points at Burnley on Saturday to make it three consecutive victories on the road in the Premier League. The Bees have now won five of their past six away fixtures in the league.
They travel to AFC Bournemouth on Tuesday, who are eight games unbeaten in the top flight. The Cherries can cause problems on home turf but the momentum Brentford have on their travels should be the difference.
Simon: 2-1
Everton 2-1 Burnley @ 7/1
It's been almost three months since Everton last recorded a win at the Hill Dickinson Stadium in the league. The Toffees pulled off an impressive win at Newcastle United last time out and they will look to utilise that to beat Burnley, who head to Merseyside on Tuesday.
The Clarets have one win from their previous 19 outings in this competition and I think they will fall short again.
Simon: 1-1
Leeds 2-1 Sunderland @ 15/2
Leeds United have won five of their past 10 home games in the Premier League and so they should be fancying their chances against Sunderland at Elland Road.
The Black Cats have the fourth-worst away record in the division and have lost five of their last eight matches in the league. Without a prolific goalscorer, I think they will continue to struggle.
Simon: 3-1
Wolves 1-3 Liverpool @ 11/1
Wolves' win over Aston Villa on Friday ensured they surpassed Derby County's record for lowest points in a Premier League season. The Old Gold will look for another positive result at Molineux as Liverpool make the trip to the West Midlands.
The Reds have won three successive fixtures in the top flight and with the squad depth that they have, they should be able to win this contest rather comfortably.
Simon: 0-3

Villa 1-1 Chelsea @ 13/2
Villa supporters made their feelings clear to the players following last week's loss at Wolves. Recent performances and results have been troubling for the Villans' top-five hopes.
Unai Emery will try and orchestrate a response as they take on Chelsea at Villa Park. The Blues are in a bit of a tricky situation as well. They have failed to win any of their past three games in the league.
On current form, I think a point is the best either side can hope for.
Simon: 0-2
Brighton 1-2 Arsenal @ 7/1
Arsenal have recently taken down their two biggest London rivals and next up for them is a trip to Brighton & Hove Albion. The Seagulls are on a two-game winning streak themselves.
Arsenal cannot afford another mistake in the title race so I think they will be able to grind out a victory here.
Simon: 0-2
Fulham 2-1 West Ham @ 15/2
Fulham have the chance to make it three Premier League victories on the spin when they host West Ham United at Craven Cottage on Wednesday. The Cottagers have won eight of their 14 fixtures on home turf this season.
The Irons head to west London without a win in three matches, with the most recent being a 5-2 defeat at Liverpool. I think Fulham will be value for the three points here.
Simon: 1-1

Man City 3-0 Forest @ 9/1
Manchester City sit five points behind Arsenal in the title race and they have a game in hand on the Gunners. Pep Guardiola's men are searching for a fifth-straight victory in the Premier League on Wednesday when they entertain Nottingham Forest at the Etihad.
The Tricky Trees have lost three of their previous four fixtures in the top flight. Forest have failed to score in two of those four games and I can see this being the case in Manchester.
Simon: 5-0
Newcastle 2-2 Man United @ 11/1
Newcastle United have lost three league games in a row at St. James' Park. They will look to correct this form against Manchester United on Wednesday. The Red Devils have won six of the seven matches Michael Carrick has overseen in the top flight.
The hosts have their issues, but if they play to their best, I think they are capable of pinching a point off the in-form visitors.
Simon: 0-2
Spurs 1-1 Crystal Palace @ 6/1
Tottenham Hotspur's clash with Crystal Palace in north London on Thursday is huge. Reports suggest Igor Tudor will be sacked if Spurs don't beat the Eagles. The home side are winless in their past 10 outings in the Premier League and they have lost each of the last four.
Palace have not been having a great time of it recently, either. They have two wins from 13 in the league. What we have here is two teams struggling, so I believe they will cancel one another out.
Simon: 0-1
