As the Premier League season reaches its crucial stage, there are several matches this weekend that could produce some shock results.
Here are four games to keep an eye on:
Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool:
On paper, this looks like a routine Premier League fixture for the league leaders, Liverpool. However, Nottingham Forest have proven to be a tricky opposition for the big teams this season. They could spring a surprise.
Sheffield United vs Arsenal:
It’s been a disastrous season for Sheffield United, who are rooted to the bottom of the Premier League table. However, they showed signs of life in their last game against Wolves despite losing 1-0. This game could be a potential banana skin for Mikel Arteta’s side.
Brentford vs Chelsea:
Brentford lost their last Premier League game against West Ham United, while Chelsea drew 1-1 with Manchester City. The Blues currently sit above Brentford on the league table. However, Brentford could pull a surprise result against Mauricio Pochettino’s side as they hope to make use of their home advantage.
Tottenham vs Crystal Palace:
Tottenham currently sit in the 5th position on the Premier League table, while Crystal Palace occupied the 13th position. Palace won their last Premier League tie 3-0 against Burnley, while Tottenham lost to Wolves. However the visitors could cause problems for Spurs’ defence. The game could be a tight affair with the potential for a shock result.
