FIXTURE 2: CHELSEA VS NORWICH CITY (Predicted Score 2-1)
Chelsea have performed awfully so far this season with 7 defeats in 12 games. Jose Mourinho's men are desperately in need of a win against Norwich which can prove to be a catalyst to kick-start their season. A home fixture after a long international break has given Blues' manager Jose a lot of time to prepare for the fixture. Norwich City, on the other hand, will go in this fixture with zero pressure and can take full advantage of Chelsea's defensive problems. Home side looks strong on paper and a close win is predicted in the favour of Chelsea.
PLAYERS TO WATCHOUT FOR:
Chelsea: Willian, Hazard and Costa
Norwich City: Redmond, Hoolahan and Howson

FIXTURE 3: EVERTON VS ASTON VILLA (Predicted Score 2-1)
Everton are a formidable side, considering their attacking play as they have managed to score 20 goals in 12 games.

Aston Villa are struggling in the league so far as they sit at the bottom of the table and have managed just one win in 12 games. However, Aston's new manager would like to build the team on last week's manager where they managed to steal points from league leaders Man City. A home win is predicted.

Everton: Lukaku, Barkley and Deulofeu
Aston Villa: Gestede, Agbonlahor and Jordan Ayew

FIXTURE 10: CRYSTAL PALACE VS SUNDERLAND (Predicted Score 2-0)

Sunderland, on the other hand, have struggled to pick points so far and are in the relegation zone with just 6 points.
