We are just halfway through the 21st Matchday of the Premier League season, but after the results from the match between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest, which is still currently third, we couldn’t help but dive into the 22nd matchday because things just got more interesting.
The clash between the two teams ended in a draw, which slowed down Liverpool a bit and opened the way for Arsenal to reduce the gap to the current leaders, but the top team still has an extra game to play over the rest of the bunch.
However, Arsenal still has to go through their match at the time of writing. Things are looking pretty good for the 4 top teams in the next matchday as they all seem to be heavy favorites, so we expect them to capitalize on their momentum.
Matchday 22 of this interesting Premier League Season is coming our way soon, so we are going to be diving into what we expect to unfold once the weekend begins and the teams hit the field.

The 10th Brentford just went through a contested match with the 6th placed Manchester City, ending in a draw, but now, they will be having to contend with the top team on the board, but at least they will be the hosts.
Liverpool is looking pretty strong, even though they also come from a draw. However, they faced a Nottingham Forest team who was not only tailing them on points but were also on a 6 matches winning streak.
If we consider both results and the teams involved, it is clear that Liverpool should be the team to come on top, so we are putting our betting token on the visitors in this clash.
Brentford vs. Liverpool Betting Pick: Liverpool

Arsenal is about to go out to play against Tottenham, but we are expecting them to turn up the heat after their recent draw. They now have a shot at reducing the gap to the leaders.
With that in mind, we expect them not only to win today, but we could look up to the Gunners when Saturday arrives and they face the currently 8th-placed Aston Villa.
Aston Villa is facing an easy target in Everton today, but jumping from the 16th placed team to a top three team from one week to the other is a huge change of pace, and they will also have to be visitors at The Emirates.
We expect both teams to arrive with victories but we think the Gunners will be doing short work of the visitors as they focus on climbing to the top.
Arsenal vs. Aston Villa Betting Pick: Arsenal

Nottingham Forest has surely impressed everybody this season, as not only do they currently hold the second spot on the board, but they have been doing pretty well against adversity and are prepared to go toe to toe with anybody in the league.
That was proven by their recent draw with the top team, Liverpool, and we believe that they are getting a reward for their hard-fought draw, as they face a Southampton team struggling at the bottom of the board.
The visitors have won a single match in their whole season, and only drawn three, so with 16 losses, we believe this will be a good match for the hosts to not only get three points but also slow their pace and have their players better rested for the upcoming matches.
Nottingham Forest vs. Southampton Betting Pick: Nottingham Forest
Premier League Matchday 22: Chelsea vs. Wolves
When? | Monday, January 20th at 3:00 PM ET, 2:00 PM CST, 1:00 PM MT, and 12:00 PM PT |
Where? | Stamford Bridge |

The 4th-placed Chelsea went to a draw with the 7th-placed Bournemouth in their most recent match with a 2-2 score.
The Wolverhampton Wolves are going to be facing Newcastle today, and to be honest, we think that the 17th-placed team is going to fall due to Newcastle’s amazing momentum.
With that, the Wolves enter this Monday’s match on a two-match win streak, while Chelsea is trying to get a win after a pair of draws, and we expect this to be their perfect shot.
Expect the host team to bring it into this Monday match and celebrate adding three points in front of their home crowd.
Chelsea vs. Wolves Betting Pick: Chelsea
