Premier League 2024/25 Gameweek 38: Preview and Betting Tips

Gameweek 38 of the Premier League is upon us, and we look at some of the potential outcomes from this week’s thrilling battles, including the cracking clashes like Nottingham Forest vs Chelsea, and Manchester United vs Aston Villa.

Liverpool vs Crystal Palace

Liverpool host Crystal Palace in their final Premier League game of the season, and they will look to finish the campaign on a high.

They are undefeated in 16 of the last 17 matches against Crystal Palace, and they are the league champions. They will be handed the Premier League trophy on Sunday, and they will look to celebrate with a win.

However, their recent form has been disappointing, and they are winless in the last three matches. They have lost two of the last three games, and Crystal Palace will look to take advantage of their vulnerabilities. The visitors have picked up 4 wins from the last 5 matches, including the FA Cup final against Manchester City. They will look to pull off an upset here.

A double chance on the visitors could be ideal.

Probable Bet: Palace win or draw

Manchester United vs Aston Villa

Manchester United host Aston Villa in the Premier League at the weekend, and they will look to finish the season with a win.

They are 16th in the league table, and they have lost 5 of the last 6 league games.

On the other hand, Aston Villa are still fighting for European qualification, and they will be desperate for a win here. They have picked up 5 wins from the last 6 matches in the league.

Aston Villa have kept a clean sheet in their last three league matches, and a double chance on them would be ideal.

Probable Bet: Villa win or draw

Newcastle vs Everton

Newcastle United host Everton in the Premier League, and they will be desperate for a win.

They are 4th in the league table, and they are pushing for Champions League qualification. They cannot afford to drop points here. They are coming into this game on the back of a defeat against Arsenal, and it remains to be seen whether they can bounce back.

Everton have picked up two consecutive wins in the Premier League, and they will look to upset the odds here.

The last two matches between these two sides have ended in a draw, and the two teams could cancel each other out once again.

Probable Bet: Draw

Nottingham Forest vs Chelsea

Nottingham Forest host Chelsea in the Premier League at the weekend, and this is a vital game in the race for Champions League qualification. The two teams are separated by just one point, and they will be desperate for a win here.

Chelsea were held to a draw against Nottingham Forest at Stamford Bridge earlier this season, and the home team will look to grind out all three points here.

Nottingham Forest have picked up just two wins from the last 6 league matches and it remains to be seen whether they can bounce back strongly.

On the other hand, Chelsea have won 4 of the last 5 league matches. A double chance on Chelsea could be ideal here.

Probable Bet: Chelsea win or draw

Southampton vs Arsenal

Southampton host Arsenal in the Premier League, and they will look to finish the season with a positive result at home.

They have been relegated, and they have nothing to play for. They have lost 16 of the last 20 league matches, and they have failed to score in the last 3 league outings.

Arsenal are undefeated in 25 of the last 27 league matches, and they will be the favourites here. They should be able to pick up all three points.

Probable Bet: Arsenal win

Tottenham vs Brighton

Tottenham Hotspur host Brighton in the Premier League, and they will be hungover from the success in the UEFA Europa League.

They have nothing to play for in the league, and they could be complacent here.

Meanwhile, Brighton will look to finish the season strongly, and they are coming into this game on the back of a win over the league champions.

Probable Bet: Brighton win or draw

Wolves vs Brentford

Wolves host Brentford in the Premier League at the weekend, and they will look to pick up all three points at home.

They are coming into this game on the back of three consecutive defeats in the Premier League.

On the other hand, Brentford were beaten by Fulham last time out.

Matches between these two teams are often packed with goals, and on current form, this will be another cracking contest.

24 goals have been scored in the last 6 matches between these two teams, and another high-scoring contest is on the cards.

Probable Bet: Over 2.5 goals

Bournemouth vs Leicester

Bournemouth host Leicester City in the Premier League and they will look to pick up a win at home. They are undefeated in the last 7 home matches against the Foxes.

However, they are in disappointing form right now. They have lost the last two league matches in a row.

Leicester have already been relegated and they are looking to salvage some pride. They have done well in the recent outings with two wins from the last three league matches. It would not be a surprise if the two teams cancelled each other out here.

Probable Bet: Draw

Fulham vs Manchester City
