Manchester City vs Fulham
Pep Guardiola's side can take a giant leap towards reducing the gap between them and Arsenal, with a win against Fulham on Wednesday. Manchester City have moved within six points of Arsenal following their magnificent 2-1 win at Anfield at the weekend, and a win against Fulham can move the home side within three points before Arsenal face Brentford on Thursday night. Fulham head into this fixture with three defeats in their last four league matches, having lost back-to-back games against Everton and Manchester United.
Nottingham Forest vs Wolves
The relegation battle will be the topic of conversation at the City Ground on Wednesday, as Nottingham Forest take on Wolves. The home side would have been thankful for Benjamin Sesko's late equaliser against West Ham United on Tuesday night, and they can potentially move five points clear of the Hammers and level with Tottenham Hotspur with a win against a Wolves side who are consigned to relegation.
Aston Villa vs Brighton
Aston Villa look to continue their charge towards European ambitions as they host a Brighton side who will be low on confidence following their derby defeat at home to Crystal Palace. The home side has won eight of their last 10 league matches at home, and this season, the Villains have averaged 2.08 points per game and accumulated 1.62 goals per game. Brighton & Hove Albion are firmly in the bottom mid-half of the Premier League this season, but will have to be wary that results could drag them into an unlikely relegation battle with West Ham United, in particular, making ground on the teams above.
Crystal Palace vs Burnley
Crystal Palace will hope to capitalise on their derby victory at the weekend, as they host a Burnley side in desperate need of victory. The Clarets are on a run of 17 league games without a win, and their wins this season have come against fellow promoted sides Leeds United and Sunderland, while also beating Wolves.
Sunderland vs Liverpool
Sunderland's home form has been magnificent, as the home side for this fixture are the only unbeaten side in the division on home soil with seven wins and five draws from 12 matches at the Stadium of Light. The Reds have won only six league games since their opening five, during which they won every fixture.
