EPL: 3 matches that could have shocking results this weekend

by Arabella Zikora

This weekend’s Premier League fixtures could see some shock results as Crystal Palace host champions Manchester City, Brighton take on Arsenal, and Tottenham Hotspur face Nottingham Forest.

Crystal Palace vs Man City

The Eagles have had a mixed season so far, but have the ability to cause problems for any team on their day. With Man City’s focus primarily on the UEFA Champions League quarter-final first-leg tie against Real Madrid on Tuesday, Palace could take advantage of any complacency and produce an upset. The likes of Jordan Ayew and Eberechi Eze could use their dribbling skills and strength to test City’s defence and potentially nick all three points or a draw. The kick-off time for the match is 12.30 pm.

Brighton vs Arsenal

Brighton have been a tough nut to crack at home, and Arsenal will have their work cut out for them against Roberto De Zerbi’s well-drilled side. Just like Manchester City, who will compete in the Champions League quarter-final on Tuesday, Arsenal also have a tough match against Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich on Tuesday night at Emirates Stadium. Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta could be tempted to rest some key players against Brighton due to the upcoming clash against Bayern Munich and that could put the Gunners in trouble. The encounter could go either way in what could be a close affair. The kick-off time for the match is 5.30 pm.

Tottenham vs Nottingham Forest

Nottingham head to this match after beating Fulham 3-1 in their last encounter. They will hope to build on that result when they face Tottenham on Sunday evening in an away clash.
They can cause an upset against a Spurs side who have been inconsistent lately, having played 1-1 against West Ham United in their last game. Nottingham possess several players who have experience of playing in the top flight and could produce a shock result at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Spurs will be relying on the likes of captain Son Heung-min and James Maddison to provide the goals, but Nottingham’s defence will be looking to keep them quiet.

It remains to be seen what will happen in these matches, but one thing is for sure – the weekend’s Premier League fixtures could provide plenty of surprises. Football fans should buckle up for what could prove to be a very exciting round of matches.
