Gameweek 36 of the 2025/26 Premier League season is upon us, and we look at some of the potential outcomes from this week’s thrilling battles.

Liverpool vs Chelsea

Liverpool will host Chelsea in the Premier League on Saturday, looking to bounce back from the disappointing defeat to Manchester United. The Reds are looking to secure UEFA Champions League qualification for the upcoming campaign, and a win here could do the job for them.

Meanwhile, Chelsea are coming into this game on the back of six consecutive defeats in the Premier League. They will be desperate to bounce back strongly. The Blues have slipped to ninth in the league table, and they will look to turn things around.

The West London outfit have picked up two wins over Liverpool in the last two meetings, and it remains to be seen whether they can pull off an upset here. Matches between these two teams are packed with goals, with the last six producing 18 goals. This is likely to be another high-scoring game.

Probable bet: Over 2.5 goals

Sunderland vs Manchester United

Sunderland will take on Manchester United in the Premier League on Saturday, looking to finish the season strongly. The Black Cats are 12th in the league table, and they will look to win the remaining matches to get into the top half. The Wearside outfit have enjoyed an impressive campaign, and it remains to be seen whether the players can step up and deliver once again.

Manchester United have secured Champions League qualification for the upcoming campaign and beat Liverpool in their last game. They will look to continue with the momentum and pick up another win here. The Red Devils have won five of their last six matches against Sunderland, and they will be the favourites to come away with all three points.

Probable bet: Man United win

Fulham vs Bournemouth

Fulham will take on Bournemouth at home in the Premier League, and they will look to bounce back after the disappointing defeat against Arsenal. The Cottagers have picked up just two wins from the last six league matches. Marco Silva’s men are 11th in the league table, and they will look to secure a top-half finish. They need to win games like these at home.

On the other hand, the Cherries are unbeaten in the last six Premier League matches. Andoni Iraola’s men are sixth in the league table, and they will look to secure European qualification for next season. They will need to win these games, and it remains to be seen whether they can get the job done. Bournemouth have four wins and a draw from their last six matches against Fulham. A double chance on the visitors would be ideal.

Brighton & Hove Albion vs Wolves

Probable Bet: Brighton win

Manchester City vs Brentford

Manchester City will take on Brentford in the Premier League this weekend, and this is a must-win game for them. Pep Guardiola’s men dropped points against Everton, and they are now trailing Arsenal in the title race. Dropping points here would end any hopes of winning the league for them.

Despite not winning any of the last five Premier League matches before the West Ham clash, they were difficult to beat and unbeaten in four of their previous six Premier League games. The Bees will look to grind out a positive result here. Manchester City are unbeaten in their last six matches against Brentford, and they will look to pick up all three points.

Probable bet: Man City win

Meanwhile, 24 goals have been scored in the last six matches between these two teams, and this is likely to be another high-scoring game. Both teams will be fighting for all three points, and the game will be open.

Probable bet: Over 2.5 goals

Burnley vs Aston Villa

Probable bet: Over 2.5 goals

Tottenham Hotspur vs Leeds United
