However, fans and pundits alike are talking about the potential for some shocking results in the Premier League this weekend as there are some fascinating contests to look forward to.
First up is Man City vs Southampton. Pep Guardiola’s side won their last League game 2-1 against Wolves last weekend.
Southampton lost 3-2 at home to Leicester City.
On paper, City are expected to beat Southampton and get their third back-to-back win.
With Southampton also looking to take all three points against the Cityzens, this could be a closely fought affair as the Saints would hope to avoid a fourth back-to-back defeats.
Meanwhile, Chelsea will be looking for a straightforward win against Newcastle United at home but they can ill-afford to underestimate their opponent.
Both teams lost their last game against Liverpool and Brighton, respectively.
The visitors will hope to avoid a defeat this weekend when they face the Blues at the Stamford Bridge and this could be a potential boost for them.
West Ham will be looking to put in a strong performance against Manchester United at the London Stadium.
The Hammers lost 4-1 to Tottenham Hotspur in their last game, while Man United won 2-1 against Brentford.
Man United are sure to be wary of the hosts, who will like to avoid a home defeat on Sunday.
Finally, Crystal Palace will be hoping to bounce back from their 1-0 defeat against Nottingham Forest in their last game when they face Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.
However, with Palace playing at home, this game could be a closer affair at the Selhurst Park than many are expecting.
