Premier League Matchweek 32 tips & predictions | EPL 2024-25

Several exciting encounters are lined up for Matchweek 32 of the 2024-25 English Premier League campaign, including the matchup between Newcastle and Manchester United. Here are our top soccer betting tips for this week’s EPL action.

Manchester City v Crystal Palace

Saturday, April 12 – 9:30pm AEST – Etihad Stadium

Forced to settle for a goalless draw in last week’s derby, sixth-placed Manchester City will look to bounce back against Crystal Palace, who are five positions below them. Given that Palace are unbeaten in their last five Premier League outings, the Eagles look set to share the points with their inconsistent hosts for the second time this season.

Brighton & Hove Albion v Leicester City

Sunday, April 13 – 12am AEST – Amex Stadium

After back-to-back defeats against Aston Villa and Crystal Palace, ninth-placed Brighton will be keen to return to winning ways against Leicester, who are second from bottom. Brighton are out to secure European football, so expect them to hand the Foxes a ninth consecutive league defeat.

Nottingham Forest v Everton

Sunday, April 13 – 12am AEST – The City Ground

Beaten 2-1 by Villa in their last outing, third-placed Nottingham Forest will endeavour to regain their winning form against Everton, who are in the bottom half of the table. Forest have been impressive this season, so expect them to do the double on the Toffees.

Southampton v Aston Villa

Sunday, April 13 – 12am AEST – St Mary’s Stadium

Seventh on the table after three consecutive league wins, Aston Villa will look to make light work of bottom-placed Southampton. Villa have dominated this fixture, so expect Unai Emery’s men to cruise to a fifth consecutive victory over the Saints.

Arsenal v Brentford

Sunday, April 13 – 2:30am AEST – Emirates Stadium

After thrashing Real Madrid 3-0 in the Champions League, second-placed Arsenal will be in high spirits when they face 12th-placed Brentford. Expect the high-flying Gunners to secure a fifth consecutive win in this London derby.

Chelsea v Ipswich Town

Sunday, April 13 – 11pm AEST – Stamford Bridge

Fourth-placed Chelsea will seek to advance their hopes of securing Champions League football against Ipswich, who are in the relegation zone. Despite losing their last meeting, expect the much-improved Blues to secure a commanding victory over the Premier League strugglers.

Liverpool v West Ham United

Sunday, April 13 – 11pm AEST – Anfield

After suffering their second defeat of the EPL season against Fulham last Sunday, league leaders Liverpool will look to strengthen their title hopes against West Ham, who are in the bottom half of the table. Liverpool’s Mohammed Salah leads the Golden Boot race with 27 goals, and online bookmakers are paying $2 for the Egyptian International to add to his tally.

Wolverhampton Wanderers v Tottenham Hotspur

Sunday, April 13 – 11pm AEST – Molineux Stadium

After ending their four-game winless run with victory over Southampton, 14th-placed Tottenham Hotspur will face a stern test against Wolves, who are three positions below them. Expect the in-form hosts to go all out against Spurs, who will be a little heavy in the legs after Thursday’s Europa League tie with Eintracht Frankfurt.

Newcastle United v Manchester United

Monday, April 14 – 1:30am AEST – St James’ Park

Newcastle, in fifth, will look to boost their chances of securing Champions League football when they take on Manchester United, who are in the bottom half of the table. Triumphant in four of their last five meetings, back the Magpies to dispatch Ruben Amorim’s inconsistent side.

Bournemouth v Fulham

Tuesday, April 15 – 5am AEST – Vitality Stadium

Fulham, sitting eighth, will hope to climb higher up the table against Bournemouth, who are two positions below them. The hosts, who are winless in their last six Premier League outings, look poised to fall to defeat against the in-form Cottagers.
