Sunderland vs Liverpool and Chelsea vs Newcastle

Liverpool used to a true force in the Premier League last season which saw them finish second on the table. However now they are struggling to find themselves after selling Suarez to Barcelona. All throughout the season they have not managed to discover their true form and judging by their away record (4 wins, 0 draws and 5 losses), their next challenge against Sunderland looks to be equally problematic.

They are now 14th place and hold a record of 1 win, 6 draws and 3 losses while playing at home which is why Bet365 has given them odds of 4.00 (3/1).

• Manchester City looking to overcome Everton

Although Newcastle poses a threat to many sides in the Premier League, Bet365 has branded them complete outsiders 15.00 (14/1) for this match.

Everton vs Manchester City and Swansea vs West Ham

There will be a great spectacle between Everton and Manchester City. This is definitely one game to watch out for as plenty of superb action is expected. Everton currently find themselves in 13th position with only 21 points and considering that they have splashed out quite a bit on Lukaku last summer, they should have been able to accumulate more points due to his great goalscoring abilities.

Manuel Pellegrini’s men on the other hand have an impressive away record which stands at 7 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss.
