Predicted lineups for ALL 20 Premier League teams: Gameweek 7

Cooked up tonight for the Friday deadline! ⏰

Averaging 88% accuracy this season ✅

🟢🟡🟠🔴 = Likelihood of a start

(%) = Accuracy on previous predictions

🆕 = New players in the lineup

⚠️ = Concerns


ARSENAL (86%)

🆕 Ødegaard, Saliba

⚠️ Gabriel, Hincapié, Madueke, Havertz, Jesus

Gabriel came off with a knock midweek, but should be absolutely fine.

With both Trossard and Martinelli starting midweek, this hints at both being benched with Eze starting on the left.

Gyökeres, despite playing a lot of minutes recently, should also start.


ASTON VILLA (85%)

🆕 Buendia, Pau, Bizot

⚠️ Mings, Tielemans, Onana, Sancho, Barkley, Martínez

Difficult one, as Villa are currently playing as I write this.

Martínez dropped out right before the match started, no idea what’s happened there.

Mings is out, meaning Pau will start.

Elliott could start as he’s been benched tonight.


BOURNEMOUTH (89%)

🆕 Tavernier, Brooks, Scott

⚠️ Smith, Cook, Ünal

Reverting back to the game vs Newcastle.

Those orange spots are very close calls to the direct replacements, but the greens are safe.


BRENTFORD (91%)

🆕 Pinnock, Lewis-Potter

⚠️ Nunes

Usually play a back 5 in these fixtures.

Pinnock is red — if it’s a back 4, he’ll drop out and Dango will be in.

Lewis-Potter vs Hickey is close.


BRIGHTON (86%)

🆕 Welbeck, De Cuyper

⚠️ Veltman, Mitoma, Webster, Hinshelwood, March

Mitoma is a doubt, meaning we could see Minteh on the left and Gruda on the right.

It could be one of De Cuyper or Kadioglu playing further forward.

Welbeck should start, but has been great coming off the bench.


BURNLEY (94%)

⚠️ Roberts, Jordan

Unchanged, again.


CHELSEA (80%)
