Alan Shearer, the well-known pundit, has made predictions for this week's English Premier League football matches.
Alan Shearer, the legendary former striker who is now a football analyst, has predicted and analyzed the English Premier League 2025-26 fixtures for this week. Shearer expects the big match between Liverpool and Manchester City to end in a draw. Meanwhile, he predicts Manchester United will host and defeat Tottenham Hotspur, and league leaders Arsenal will win against Sunderland.
Manchester United to defeat Tottenham Hotspur.
Analysis: Tottenham Hotspur have shown decent form away from home, but Manchester United have been very strong at home. For this reason, I choose Manchester United to win.
Benjamin Sesko scored an important goal last week but has yet to start a match for Manchester United. He has been alternating between playing and not playing, similar to the situation of Newcastle's striker. He needs to prove more, but that goal will greatly boost his confidence, and he hopes to play a significant role again this week.
Liverpool to draw with Manchester City.
Analysis: This could be an exciting game because both teams have very poor defensive records. However, each side also boasts outstanding forwards. Therefore, I think the match will end in a draw.
Other match predictions by Shearer are as follows:
Arsenal to defeat Sunderland.
Bournemouth to lose to Aston Villa.
Burnley to draw with West Ham United.
Fulham to lose to Everton.
Wolverhampton to lose to Chelsea.
Newcastle to defeat Brentford.
Brighton to defeat Crystal Palace.
