Another huge weekend of Premier League action looms large.

Manchester United are seeking to make it three wins on the bounce at Brentford to get us up and running at lunchtime on Saturday.

Crystal Palace and Liverpool, the only two sides still undefeated in the top flight, meet at Selhurst Park in a repeat of August’s Community Shield with the Reds hoping to extend their already healthy lead at the top.

Arsenal face another huge test on the road at Newcastle United before Everton and West Ham see us home on Monday.

As ever, England legend and Betfair ambassador Alan Shearer has revealed his prediction for each and every Premier League game to Metro.

Brentford v Manchester United

I’m still not convinced that all is well at Man United even though confidence should be sky high. Brentford will be tough for them, so I’ll go for a draw.

Prediction – Draw

Chelsea v Brighton

Chelsea need to bounce back and I think they will at home to Brighton. I know Brighton were 2-0 up against Spurs last weekend, but I’ll go for a home win here.

Prediction – Chelsea win

Crystal Palace vs Liverpool

Crystal Palace have been a bit of a bogey team for Liverpool in the past and I think they’ve got a good chance to have a really good season, even though they got rid of Eze. I’m going to go for a draw here.

Prediction – Draw

Leeds v Bournemouth

Leeds will be tough at home, but I’ve been impressed with Bournemouth. I know it wasn’t a good game when they played Newcastle, but I’ll go for an away win here.

Prediction – Bournemouth win

Manchester City v Burnley

Home win. I can’t see anything other than there being one-way traffic here.

Prediction – Manchester City win

Nottingham Forest v Sunderland

It’s already a huge game for Ange Postecoglou here. I’ll go for a home win. I think Nottingham Forest will beat Sunderland.

Prediction – Nottingham Forest win

Tottenham v Wolves

Home win. Wolves are having a shocking time in the league and got stuffed by Leeds last week so I can’t see anything other than a win for Tottenham.

Prediction – Tottenham win

Aston Villa v Fulham

Tough one. You’d usually expect Aston Villa to win at home but with the manager calling them out at the weekend, it doesn’t look as if everything’s well. They look leggy already. I’ll go for an away win here.

Prediction – Fulham win

Newcastle v Arsenal

Huge game for two sides that both drew at the weekend. I think with Newcastle at home, I’m going to go with Newcastle to beat Arsenal in a bad-tempered game.

Prediction – Newcastle win

Everton v West Ham

The way Everton are, they were really unlucky against Liverpool and with that home crowd here and the way West Ham are at the moment, I’ll go for an Everton win.

Prediction – Everton win
