Predictions for tomorrow:
Burnley vs Man United
Betting on Burnley is a sucker bet as United's attack is far better than portrayed and Burnley has the worst defence in the league. This one could get ugly and expect Van Persie to open his account for the season. Burnley 1, Man United 3
Man City vs Stoke
Begovic & company are good enough on defence to hold this to late, but I don't think they will. City will probably get a goal around the middle of the first half and then add another late. The Potters just don't have the ability to break down the City defense at the Etihad without a major mistake from their hosts. Look for Dzeko to get his first goal of the season. Man City 2, Stoke 0
Newcastle vs Crystal Palace
Three points will not get any easier for the Magpies. They boast a decent attack and a respectable defence plus playing at home against Palace, who are dreadful on attack, should give them a significant edge. If Dwight Gayle plays a significant amount, Palace will get at least a goal from him, but not sure it's worth the risk. Newcastle 3, Crystal Palace 1
QPR vs Sunderland
Joey Barton and Rio Ferdinand have played exceptionally for their less than exceptional side, but if Remy is not available, this match has draw written all over it. Sunderland is superior both on attack and in defence, but the confidings of Loftus Road will give QPR a proper boost. QPR 2, Sunderland 2
Swansea vs West Brom
This match could end up being the most exciting of the day. Swansea is just poor enough on defence to allow a mediocre WBA attack to keep it exciting, but ultimately the superior Swan attack should prevail. Wilfried Bony is itching for a goal. Swansea 3, WBA 2
West Ham vs Southampton
Another candidate for match of the day, Southampton should have enough to make it interesting against a somewhat decent West Ham defence. In the end though, the Hammers strength of Allardyce's 'air ball' are the Saints' weakness. West Ham 2, Southampton 0
Everton vs Chelsea
Despite being at Goodison, I don't think the Toffees will be able to compete with Chelsea, but if they try, the London club could humiliate them. This is just a bad match-up for the blue side of Merseyside, Chelsea play a similar yet superior style of attack and are far better on defence. I'll go conservative here though and say Everton 0, Chelsea 2.
