There is a bumper Saturday of Premier League action to look forward to and leaders Liverpool could end the day sitting four points clear at the top of the standings.

Here are our experts' selections for the day's matches.

Brentford vs Chelsea (Saturday, 3pm)

Brentford have conceded three or more goals in seven of their last 11 outings, and the expected absence of English defender Ben Mee will only add to their issues at the back.

Chelsea have also struggled defensively, as they are without a clean sheet in their last 10 away league fixtures, with over 3.5 goals landing in six of those contests.

Everton vs West Ham (Saturday, 3pm)

Everton's lack of a scoring edge makes them easy enough to oppose whereas West Ham were back among the goals on Monday, Jarrod Bowen bagging a hat-trick in a 4-2 win over Brentford.

West Ham will be set up to be hard to break down and look to catch Everton on the counter — only Nottingham Forest have scored more goals on the break this season than the Hammers.

Fulham vs Brighton (Saturday, 3pm)

Three of the last five meetings between Fulham and Brighton have ended in draws, and both sides may need to settle for another share of the spoils again on Saturday.

With just two clean sheets between them across their last 16 combined games, there should also be some joy up front, with goals expected at both ends.

Newcastle vs Wolves (Saturday, 3pm)

The recent history of this fixture suggests it will be close, with seven of their last 10 league encounters ending all square.

Wolves will soak up what Newcastle have to offer and look to play on the counter, a tactic which has brought them plenty of joy.

But the reality is there is just one point and one place between the sides, who are so well-matched that the draw looks like a live runner.

Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool (Saturday, 3pm)

It may be prudent to look at the goalscorer market and back Luis Diaz to get on the scoresheet for Liverpool, who could be missing several key players in attack once again.

The Colombian has stepped up during the injury crisis, netting four times in his last eight outings, and he will be fit and raring to go, having been an unused substitute against Southampton on Wednesday.

Tottenham vs Crystal Palace (Saturday, 3pm)

Tottenham had won five home matches in a row before the loss to Wolves, conceding at least once in all five victories, and a 3-1 Tottenham win appeals in the correct-score market.

The hosts are missing influential full-backs Destiny Udogie and Pedro Porro, but Palace are without England centre-back Marc Guehi and creative spark Michael Olise, so Oilver Glasner's side could be set for another defeat at Spurs.

Luton vs Aston Villa (Saturday, 5.30pm)

Aston Villa, knocked out of the FA Cup by Chelsea in round four, had no midweek fixture so should be raring to go against a depleted Luton side who were given the runaround by City.

Backing Luton's opponents and both teams to score has been a winning bet in their last four matches in all competitions and that trend may well continue on Saturday.
