Thursday's Premier League predictions including Everton vs. Crystal Palace

Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's Premier League fixtures, including Everton vs. Crystal Palace.

Having tried and failed miserably to confirm their Premier League safety at the weekend, Everton's final home game of the season takes place on Thursday evening, with Crystal Palace making the journey to Goodison Park.

Frank Lampard's side fell to pieces in a 3-2 loss to Brentford on Sunday, while the Eagles were forced to settle for a 1-1 draw away to Aston Villa.

We say: Everton 1-1 Crystal Palace


Palace are the Premier League's stalemate specialists with a whopping 15 draws already this season, and it would not be a surprise to see a similarly tight contest on the Goodison turf.

Everton's recent defensive implosion and hefty injury list has hampered their bid to secure survival early, and Vieira's side have what it takes to keep the Toffees at bay for large portions and force them to do it the hard way at the Emirates.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Burnley's fight to avoid relegation from the Premier League continues on Thursday night, as Aston Villa play host to the Clarets at Villa Park.

The hosts were pegged back in a 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace last time out, while Mike Jackson's survival task was made all the more difficult with a 1-0 loss at Tottenham Hotspur.

We say: Aston Villa 0-0 Burnley


A draw would be enough for Burnley to demote Leeds to 18th place heading into the final day, so the temptation to set up in a similar way to the Spurs clash and try to play for a draw will be very real for Jackson and co.

Weghorst in particular should have a glint in his eyes as Villa work around Konsa's absence, but Gerrard's side have already claimed one win over Burnley this month and will not expect to suffer a significant reverse in fortunes in spite of their struggles for victories at Villa Park, so we can envisage this battle ending without a single goal.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Chelsea vs. Leicester (Thursday, 8.00pm)

Chelsea will aim to seal a third-placed finish in the Premier League when Leicester City make the journey to Stamford Bridge for Thursday's top-flight battle.

The Blues suffered FA Cup heartache to Liverpool at the weekend, while Brendan Rodgers's side hit Watford for five at Vicarage Road.

We say: Chelsea 2-1 Leicester City


Putting eight goals past two sides who have already been condemned to the drop is just the injection of confidence that Leicester needed, and Rodgers's side could fancy their chances against a Chelsea outfit whose morale is not at its highest point right now.

The Blues certainly had their moments against Liverpool, though, and with Tuchel demanding an immediate response from his side, we can envisage Chelsea edging a tight contest as Leicester's defensive woes on the road continue.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.
