Weekend Premier League Predictions: Expect goals from Muniz and Palmer

There are some exciting Premier League clashes coming our way this Easter weekend, capped off by the gargantuan contest between reigning champions Manchester City and Arsenal at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday.

From this weekend's roster we've picked out what we feel are the best bets for punters. Here are our weekend Premier League predictions ranging from goal barriers to goalscorers.

Over 3.5 goals in Newcastle United vs West Ham United @ 6/5

Both these teams will be hoping that come the end of the season that they will have secured European football for next season. West Ham are currently seventh and three points behind Manchester United in sixth. Newcastle are further behind and are seven points off the pace, making this game more important for them.

Over the course of the season, these teams have shown their attacking quality but they have also had huge problems defensively, which is likely going to be on show at St James' Park on Saturday. We fancy a minimum of four goals to be scored in this clash on TNT Sports, especially if the likes of Alexander Isak, Anthony Gordon and Jarrod Bowen feature.

Cole Palmer to score anytime in Chelsea vs Burnley @ 21/20

He's been Chelsea's star man this season and despite not featuring for England this week, we are expecting Cole Palmer to pick up where he left off in the Premier League against Burnley this weekend.

The Manchester City academy graduate has scored 11 goals in 23 appearances this term in the top-flight, and has already established himself as the Blues' main man. Against Vincent Kompany's struggling Burnley at Stamford Bridge, it should be routine for Palmer to add to his tally for the campaign.

Over 2.5 goals in Nottingham Forest vs Crystal Palace @ EVS

These two teams have both endured seasons that won't be very memorable in the future, having both had to make managerial changes. Steve Cooper was swapped for Nuno Espirito Santo at Nottingham Forest and Oliver Glasner replaced Roy Hodgson at Crystal Palace.

Forest are currently one point from safety following their four-point deduction and there is a lot of pressure on them to maintain their Premier League status. Whereas Glasner is just trying to put foundations in place for the summer with the Eagles.

Both teams have individual quality in attack but they both have proven to be extremely vulnerable defensively so we could see some goals in this one.

Rodrigo Muniz to score anytime in Sheffield United vs Fulham @ EVS

It wasn't so long ago that Fulham were supposedly trying to offload striker Rodrigo Muniz and now he has become one of their key players. The Brazilian has scored seven Premier League goals in as many appearances, playing a huge role in the Cottagers' recent resurgence.

Their opponents for them this weekend are the worst team in the league, Sheffield United. In terms of forgettable top-flight campaigns, the Blades have had one of the worst ones on record. Their defence has been woeful as they have conceded 74 goals in 28 games.

Muniz will be rubbing his hands together to face them this weekend.
