5 Premier League Tips - 30/8/22

On Tuesday night, Fulham and Brighton go head to head in what will be an intriguing match-up between 11th and fourth in the Premier League table.

A player that has shone early on this season is Serbian forward Aleksandar Mitrovic, as the 27-year-old has scored four goals in four matches.

Notably, the Serbian scored the opening goal of the game in the Cottagers' 2-1 loss at Arsenal on the weekend. He also scored the first goal of the match in Fulham’s 2-2 draw at home to Liverpool - that day, the former Newcastle and Anderlecht striker bagged a brace.

Leeds United go up against Everton at Elland Road on Tuesday, where the hosts will be looking to bounce back from their loss to Brighton against a winless Toffees side.

The Whites had previously beaten Wolves 2-1 and Chelsea 3-0 on either side of a 2-2 draw with Southampton, whilst Everton have drawn 1-1 with Brentford and Nottingham Forest after losing 2-1 to Aston Villa and 1-0 to Chelsea.

Former Valencia forward Rodrigo has had an excellent start to the season, as the Spaniard has scored four goals and assisted one in five appearances this campaign.

Next up sees Crystal Palace and Brentford face off in what should be an interesting contest at Selhurst Park between two sides full of optimism.

Two players to look out for during this game will be Wilfried Zaha and Ivan Toney, as they have both had excellent starts to the season.

Zaha is being assessed ahead of this match, but, has scored three goals in three appearances for the Eagles.

On the other hand, Toney has managed to score two and create three assists in five outings for Brentford this campaign.

Liverpool against Newcastle is a classic Premier League fixture which could yet again provide more entertainment on Wednesday night.

Following Liverpool’s 2-1 loss to Manchester United at Old Trafford, the Anfield club bounced back in emphatic style by beating Bournemouth 9-0 at Anfield - equalling the Premier League’s biggest win record set by Manchester United (2) and equalled by Leicester City.

On the other hand, Newcastle have drawn their last two matches, doing so with Wolves via a 1-1 scoreline at the weekend after a sensational volley from Allan Saint-Maximin. This was after the Magpies had drawn 3-3 at home with Manchester City just one week prior.

Manchester City face off against newly promoted Nottingham Forest at the weekend with many expecting this match to be a foregone conclusion.

City managed a superb 4-2 comeback win against Palace on the weekend where summer signing Erling Haaland managed to score a hat-trick, with one of these being a header.

The Norwegian has already had a promising start to life at the Etihad Stadium, having found the back of the net six times in his first five matches for the club whilst creating one assist.
