Everton vs Manchester United, Sunday 2pm, live on Sky Sports

Everton endured a Deadline Day to forget. However, although they have a weaker squad, their starting XI may actually be stronger than what the market assumes.

And playing Manchester United at home could be exactly what they need right now. A proper siege mentality game is classic David Moyes where the fans will be on board with the pragmatic approach to get a result. Remember, it's the hierarchy who they have turned on - not the players or Moyes.

Ipswich competed well with United up until Harry Maguire's controversial goal which then allowed Michael Carrick's team to flow and take advantage of lots of space.

Everton are almost the opposite opponent to Ipswich. They will make this very difficult.

SCORE PREDICTION: 1-1

Arsenal vs Chelsea, Sunday 4.30pm, live on Sky Sports

Are the market giving enough respect to Arsenal here?

The home win at 4/6 with Sky Bet is going to tempt a lot of punters in.

Arsenal will make this a typically Arsenal game where they look to control transitions, defend with ultra organisation and take advantage when their moments come. They'll be confident of stopping the Chelsea front three, who have been electric but it's too early to be calling them a serious team.

Just one clean sheet in their last 18 Premier League games identifies that.

In that same 18-game run Arsenal have kept 10 clean sheets. Levels.

This is also a defence which has kept 11 clean sheets in their last 14 home games, conceding just three goals in their last 13 home games in all competitions.

We don't need to overcomplicate matters here. Arsenal to win and under 3.5 goals has landed in 10 of the last 14 games at The Emirates. It's Evens to go in again.

SCORE PREDICTION: 2-0
