Midweek Premier League Fixtures & Key Clashes
The Premier League returns with an exciting midweek slate of fixtures following a crucial weekend that saw major shifts at both ends of the table. Wolves’ win at Bournemouth created distance from the relegation zone, while Liverpool extended their lead at the top to 11 points after defeating Manchester City and watching Arsenal stumble at home against West Ham.
The battle for European spots is heating up, making Gameweek 27 a pivotal moment for teams vying for top-half supremacy. Let’s dive into the predictions for the upcoming matches.
Tuesday, February 25: Match Previews & Predictions

The midweek action kicks off with four games on Tuesday night.
Brighton vs Bournemouth (19:30 GMT)
Brighton dominated their previous match against Southampton and will now host Bournemouth, who suffered a costly defeat to Wolves after going a man down. A win for Brighton would see them level on points with the Cherries.
Prediction: Brighton 3-1 Bournemouth
Crystal Palace vs Aston Villa (19:30 GMT)
Crystal Palace have recovered from a difficult start to the season and sit comfortably in mid-table. However, they face an Aston Villa side that has struggled on the road this season.
Prediction: Crystal Palace 1-1 Aston Villa
Wolves vs Fulham (19:30 GMT)
Despite being 17th in the table, Wolves have shown promise under Vitor Pereira. Fulham, meanwhile, lost ground in the European race after a defeat to Palace. Expect Wolves to continue their resurgence.
Prediction: Wolves 2-1 Fulham
Chelsea vs Southampton (20:15 GMT)
Chelsea’s poor form has seen them drop to seventh, a significant fall from their title-contending position earlier in the season. Fortunately, they face a struggling Southampton side at Stamford Bridge.
Prediction: Chelsea 3-1 Southampton
Wednesday, February 26: High-Stakes Encounters

The Premier League’s top five are all in action on Wednesday, making it a decisive evening.
Brentford vs Everton (19:30 GMT)
Everton have found stability under David Moyes, but their unbeaten run is in danger against a Brentford side that dismantled Leicester last weekend.
Prediction: Brentford 2-1 Everton
Man Utd vs Ipswich (19:30 GMT)
Manchester United’s inconsistency remains a concern, but they have a prime opportunity to collect three points against an Ipswich team struggling for form.
Prediction: Man Utd 1-0 Ipswich
Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal (19:30 GMT)
Arsenal suffered a damaging home defeat to West Ham, raising doubts about their title ambitions. They now visit a Nottingham Forest side with a strong home record despite recent losses.
Prediction: Nottingham Forest 1-0 Arsenal
Spurs vs Man City (19:30 GMT)
