FULHAM VS ARSENAL

Mikel Arteta has got most of his transfer deals in. Off the back of two cups win and a striker on form, they should be able to see off newly bedded Fulham in a low scoring game. Score Tip: 0:2

CRYSTAL PALACE VS SOUTHAMPTON

It's another season for Roy Hodgson and his Palace outfits at home to Southampton. A tight affair I however see Hodgson's men coming out tops with new recruit Eberechi Eze to score a debut goal. Score tip : 1:0

LIVERPOOL VS LEEDS

Marcelo Bielsa's men were flying in the Championship last season and meet a Liverpool side who begin their title defence against the Sky Bet Champions. Jurgen Klopp's team especially that front three should be able to give Leeds a reality check in the EPL fixture. Score tip: 2:1

WEST HAM VS NEWCASTLE

David Moyes men begin their EPL campaign against Steve Bruce's men. The former Manchester United centre back goes away with the Magpies to meet the former Manchester United manager in what should be a cagey affair and the first draw in this prediction. Score tip: 1:1

WEST BROM VS LEICESTER CITY

Leicester City who always begin the premiership on a strong note should be able to see off the challenge of West Brom with Jamie Vardy leading the foxes in a high scoring fixture. The Midland club should be able to also score against a shaky Leicester defence. Score tip: 1:3

SHEFFIELD UNITED VS WOLVERHAMPTON

Nuno Santo's Blades meet a Sheffield United side who will be without their former number one, Dean Henderson. The tight fixture could end with a goalless draw as both sides try to play it safe in the first week of the campaign.

TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR VS EVERTON

Jose Mourinho's charges welcome the Toffes in their first fixture of the season and a one all draw is my prediction against Carlo Ancelotti's men.

BRIGHTON VS CHELSEA

The Blues recent transfer activities should see them as the highest goal scorers of the first week against Brighton away. Score tip : 1:4
