Premier League Rule Changes: What EPLNews Would Like to See in the Future The Premier League has long been a beacon of football excellence, but as the game evolves, so too must its regulations. At EPLNews, we believe that certain rule changes could enhance the fairness, excitement, and integrity of the league. Having recently looked at previous rule changes in the Premier League, as well as the efficiency of VAR, we are drawing from recent developments and expert analyses, and presenting you the changes we advocate for. Refining Semi-Automated Offside Technology The introduction of semi-automated offside technology (SAOT) in this…

Bournemouth vs Fulham Preview Draw Over 2.5 goals The battle for European qualification in the Premier League has taken on new intrigue with the potential expansion to eight continental places for English clubs, and that prospect is still within reach for both Bournemouth and Fulham ahead of their Monday night clash at the Vitality Stadium. However, the two sides arrive here in contrasting form, with Bournemouth in desperate need of a turnaround and Fulham looking to build some much-needed momentum. Bournemouth’s bright hopes of a top-four push have well and truly dimmed following a six-match winless run in the league (D2, L4).…

Arsenal vs Brentford Report Scorers: Partey 61’; Wissa 74’ Brentford earned a well-deserved point at the Emirates Stadium after coming from behind to secure a 1-1 draw against Arsenal, marking the first time this season that the Bees have avoided defeat against a current top-three side. While Mikel Arteta’s rotated Gunners side had one eye on their looming UEFA Champions League quarter-final second leg against Real Madrid, Brentford made sure they capitalised with a spirited second-half comeback. Slow-Burning First Half With several key players rested, Arsenal’s reshuffled starting XI lacked fluidity early on. Teenager Ethan Nwaneri, making his presence felt,…

Nottingham Forest vs Everton Report Scorers: Doucoure 90+4’ Abdoulaye Doucouré scored a dramatic 94th-minute winner to hand Everton a priceless 1-0 victory over Nottingham Forest at the City Ground, ending the hosts’ nine-match unbeaten home streak in the Premier League (PL) and condemning them to back-to-back defeats for the first time since January. First Half Struggles for Both Sides Nottingham Forest returned to home comforts following a narrow loss to Aston Villa, but their typically vibrant City Ground atmosphere wasn’t enough to ignite a spark in a drab opening half. Neither side managed to establish any real rhythm, with possession shared…

Brighton vs Leicester City Report Scorers: Joao Pedro 31’ (P), 55’ (P); Mavididi 38’, Okoli 74’ Brighton & Hove Albion twice surrendered the lead in a frustrating 2-2 draw with relegation-threatened Leicester City at the AMEX Stadium, as the Foxes ended a torrid run of nine consecutive Premier League defeats. Bright Start but Missed Opportunities The Seagulls began the match with real purpose, exploiting Leicester’s early nerves with a series of chances in the opening stages. Danny Welbeck was first to test Mads Hermansen, but his scuffed effort lacked power. Moments later, Yankuba Minteh wasted a golden opportunity when he attempted…

Southampton vs Aston Villa Report Scorers: Watkins 73’, Malen 79’, McGinn 90+4’ Aston Villa strengthened their UEFA Champions League qualification push with a commanding 3-0 win over already-relegated Southampton at St Mary’s Stadium. Second-half goals from substitutes Ollie Watkins and Donyell Malen, followed by a stoppage-time effort from John McGinn, sealed a fourth successive Premier League (PL) victory for Unai Emery’s side, who now sit fifth in the table. Villa Assert Early Dominance Despite having one eye on a pivotal UEFA Champions League quarter-final second leg against Paris Saint-Germain in midweek, Emery opted for a strong starting XI. The Villans controlled…

Manchester City vs Crystal Palace Report Scorers: De Bruyne 33’, Marmoush 36’, Kovacic 47’, McAtee 56’, O’Reilly 79’; Eze 8’, Richards 21’ Manchester City produced a sensational comeback to beat Crystal Palace 5-2 at the Etihad Stadium, ending the Eagles’ impressive eight-match unbeaten run away from home in the Premier League. Despite trailing 2-0 inside the opening 25 minutes, Pep Guardiola’s side roared back to remind their top-four rivals they remain very much in the fight for UEFA Champions League qualification. Nightmare Start for City In what has been a turbulent campaign for Guardiola’s side, the early signs suggested more disappointment…

Newcastle vs Manchester United Preview Draw or Newcastle win Both teams to score Newcastle United have shown no signs of letting up following their long-awaited EFL Cup triumph, building on that success with back-to-back wins in the Premier League. Their most recent victory — a commanding 3-0 home win over Leicester City on Monday night — showcased just how far Eddie Howe’s men have come since their own spell of inconsistency earlier in the campaign. With four consecutive wins in all competitions under their belts, the Magpies are now firmly entrenched in the race for a top-five finish. That spot, recently…

Liverpool vs West Ham Preview Liverpool to win Gakpo to score Liverpool’s hopes of a historic season have taken a considerable dent in recent weeks following three defeats in their last four outings across all competitions (W1). A 3-2 loss to Fulham in their most recent Premier League fixture compounded earlier disappointments in the UEFA Champions League and Carabao Cup final, which saw two trophy hopes dashed for Liverpool in the space of a fortnight. Despite that downturn in form, Arne Slot’s side remain firmly in control of the Premier League title race. They started the round 11 points clear of Arsenal…

Wolves vs Tottenham Preview Draw or Wolves win Strand Larsen to score Wolves and Tottenham Hotspur are two sides whose Premier League campaigns have taken divergent but equally turbulent paths since they met in a 2-2 draw back in December 2024. Both clubs have found consistency hard to come by in 2025, with Wolves winning five of their 12 top-flight outings since that stalemate and Tottenham only managing four. Despite this patchy form, it’s been enough for Wolves to all but secure their Premier League status for another season, while Spurs are clinging to hope in both Europe and domestically amid increasing…
