Premier League predictions: double joy for Spurs, Arsenal and Liverpool all square

The Premier League starts a final run of fixtures this week before club football takes a break for a round of international matches.

Table-topping Manchester City gave a boost to second-placed Liverpool on Monday night when Pep Guardiola's side were held to goalless draw by Crystal Palace.

The Merseyside club can crank up the pressure on City – but first they have to overcome in-form Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium on Wednesday. The Gunners' North London rivals Tottenham Hotspur play on the same night, taking on Brighton & Hove Albion on the south coast.

Thursday sees Frank Lampard's struggling Everton tackle a revitalised Newcastle United at Goodison Park while, 24 hours later, Wolves will be looking to continue their push for a European place at home to Leeds United.

Arsenal are back in action on Saturday when they travel to the Midlands to take on Aston Villa, while Sunday sees Leicester City against Brentford at the King Power Stadium and Spurs entertain London rivals West Ham at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
