Crystal Palace v/s Leicester - Home win
Huddersfield v/s Everton - Away win

Tottenham v/s Watford - Home win

It's Mourinho against Wenger again, probably the last chapter of the saga, as the Frenchman will leave his managerial post at Arsenal at the end of the season. It is not difficult to see why the Portuguese has an enviable record against the Frenchman; he relishes foiling plays of attacking sides and break their spirits before delivering the lethal counter punch. This plays particularly well against the one-dimensional attack-minded teams of Wenger. I don't see why that pattern would change in Sunday's match at Old Trafford. As long as the Red Devils don't deliver a big doughnut like they did against West Brom in their last home defeat last week, they should come on top of that one.

Spurs are still fighting for a UCL spot and they won't come much easier than Watford on Monday. Look for Kane to eagerly go for goals in the remaining 3 matches as he tries to catch Salah for the goal scoring title. This should be a high-scoring match with most goals going to the home side.

Accumulator: Man Utd/Tottenham
