THURSDAY (00:15 UAE) - Wolves v Manchester United: After Sunday's 2-0 cup win over West Brom, Wolves are unbeaten in seven across all competitions and have lost just twice at home all season. This has the feel of another setback for Erik ten Hag and United. PREDICTION: Wolves 2 Man United 1. PA

TUESDAY (11:30pm UAE) - Nottingham Forest v Arsenal: Forest have been putting up a fight since the appointment of Nuno Espirito Santo but face an Arsenal side that looked electric against Crystal Palace last time out. A potential banana skin for the Gunners but they should simply have too much quality. PREDICTION: Nottingham Forest 1 Arsenal 2. EPA

TUESDAY (11:45pm UAE) - Fulham v Everton: Earlier in the season Everton were a dangerous team on their travels but seem to have lost their attacking threat without Abdoulaye Doucoure who was so effective at linking midfield and attack. Fulham have a good home record against the Merseyside club and will fancy their chances here. PREDICTION: Fulham 2 Everton 1. Reuters

TUESDAY (11:45pm UAE) - Luton Town v Brighton & Hove Albion: Luton give everyone a difficult game at their Kenilworth Road base. Brighton games tend to guarantee goals at both ends, a trend likely to continue here. PREDICTION: Luton Town 2 Brighton & Hove Albion 3. PA

TUESDAY (00:00 UAE) - Crystal Palace v Sheffield United: Roy Hodgson is under pressure but this sort of fixture is his bread and butter. The veteran coach tends to keep Palace up each year by winning enough homes games 1-0. PREDICTION: Crystal Palace 1 Sheffield United 0. Reuters

TUESDAY (00:15 UAE) - Aston Villa v Newcastle United: Villa have been struggling in front of goal of late having scored just once in their last three outings. Newcastle have won only two of their last seven matches, both in the FA Cup. The Magpies have lost their last four visits to Villa Park and will be up against it once more. PREDICTION: Aston Villa 1 Newcastle United 0. AFP

WEDNESDAY (11:30pm UAE) - Manchester City v Burnley: City's home games against struggling sides are usually completely uncompetitive. PREDICTION: Manchester City 4 Burnley 0. Reuters

WEDNESDAY (11:30pm UAE) - Tottenham Hotspur v Brentford: Spurs were knocked out of the FA Cup by Manchester City on Friday night to end a three-game unbeaten run. Brentford won this game last season but had lost the previous three trips. Ivan Toney's return is a bonus for the Bees, but they struggle at the back and will be made to pay.

WEDNESDAY (00:15 UAE) - Liverpool v Chelsea: The Reds have been in rich goalscoring form of late and have won six of their last seven in all competitions. Things have also been looking up for Chelsea but getting a result at Anfield is likely to be too much to ask for them. PREDICTION: Liverpool 2 Chelsea 0. Reuters

THURSDAY (11:30 UAE) - West Ham v Bournemouth: West Ham have drawn three of their last four matches while Bournemouth looked good in a 5-0 victory over Swansea last week to progress into the fifth round of the FA Cup. They are unlikely to find the Hammers so easy to score against and this one has the look of a score draw. PREDICTION: West Ham 1 Bournemouth 1. Reuters
