Two relegation-threatened outfits separated by just one place and one point in the Premier League table lock horns at Elland Road on Sunday, as Leeds United play host to Crystal Palace.

The Whites enter this bottom-half scrap on the back of a priceless 2-1 victory over Nottingham Forest, while Roy Hodgson's second stint in the Palace dugout began with a dramatic win over Leicester City by the same scoreline.

We say: Leeds United 2-2 Crystal Palace


Even after Zaha had trudged off the field, the Palace frontline still peppered Leicester's weary defence with a barrage of shots, and a Leeds backline that are far from watertight should prepare for similar treatment against Hodgson's crop here.

However, the Whites have not lost to a bottom-half team at home all season and should not break that streak in a contest with so much on the line - especially with their recent affinity for goals - so an entertaining stalemate could be on the cards here.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Liverpool vs. Arsenal (Sunday, 4.30pm)

In a reversal of roles from seasons gone by, Liverpool host Arsenal at Anfield in Sunday afternoon's Premier League clash, with the Gunners looking to pass another test of their title credentials while Jurgen Klopp's team play catch-up in the top-four face.

Mikel Arteta's men overcame a slow start to dispatch Leeds United 4-1 last time out, while the Reds once again could not find a way past Chelsea in a goalless stalemate.

We say: Liverpool 2-3 Arsenal


Throughout their golden Premier League streak of the past few weeks, Arsenal have never truly convinced defensively, and the likely absence of Saliba spells goalmouth optimism for a Liverpool side whose Anfield resistance still has them in with a shot of a top-four finish.

However, for what they may lack in the rearguard, Arsenal have more than made up for it in the final third, and Liverpool's recent penchant for clean sheets at home is unlikely to count for much against the second-most potent team in the league.

Goals should be a guarantee in this tantalising contest, which ought to live up to the billing and then some, but the Gunners' soft underbelly has now been replaced by a hardened shell, and Arteta's side can eke out another thrilling win to take another step towards top-flight supremacy.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 2.5 goals.
