Video credit: TNT Sports
It is another blockbuster Premier League weekend as Ally McCoist and Darren Fletcher lock horns once more in their predictions battle, while we are once again inviting you to vote on all the games. Ruben Amorim’s Manchester United start the weekend when they travel to Tottenham in an eagerly anticipated encounter, live on TNT Sports and discovery+ on Saturday, November 8 (12.30pm kick-off).Liverpool will take on Manchester City having last weekend ended a four-game losing streak with victory against Aston Villa. Moreover, a 1-0 midweek Champions League win against Real Madrid has buoyed Arne Slot’s men ahead of an encounter with Pep Guardiola’s free-scoring City side. Tottenham, meanwhile, will be desperate for a victory against a resurgent United, after their dismal 1-0 defeat to Chelsea in their last Premier League outing.
Elsewhere, Ally and Fletch will be predicting the outcome of West Ham United v Burnley, two teams that have struggled in the opening 10 Premier League games, as well as the unlikely but bitter rivalry between Crystal Palace and Brighton.
Last time around, Ally had a storming gameweek, winning 12-7, to reduce the overall deficit to just four points. Here is how the table looks after 10 rounds – and remember, you can vote on every match below.

Selected matches:
Tottenham v Manchester United (TNT Sports)
Fletch: “I think this could be tight. I was quite impressed with Spurs in the Champions League, but they were not up against much. I think that win will give them a bit of confidence. Manchester United are playing well. I can see this being a decent game, a score-draw.”
Prediction: Tottenham 2-2 Manchester United
Ally: “This is a tough one to call. Spurs put in a great performance in midweek, coming off a really poor performance against Chelsea. I just think home advantage might count in this one. United have been on a good run recently, but I’m not sure if they will have enough. Spurs might fancy this one.”
Prediction: Tottenham 2-1 Manchester United
Manchester City v Liverpool
Fletch: “Liverpool have won two on the trot, against Aston Villa and Real Madrid, and they look like they are back to their best. It is going to be tight. Liverpool are good on the counter-attack away from home at the Etihad, particularly Mo Salah, but I’m just going to shade this to Manchester City. I think after this game, we will genuinely feel that it is a three-horse title race between Arsenal, City and Liverpool.”
Prediction: Manchester City 2-1 Liverpool
Ally: “Crikey, what a game, this early in the season. It is vital for either of the teams not to lose, believe it or not. For that reason, I am taking a draw. I think there will be goals. City were very impressive against Dortmund: they were really good in wide areas; Phil Foden’s finishing was absolutely excellent. Liverpool were back to just about their best against Real Madrid and a good victory to turn a corner against Aston Villa, so I’ll go for a draw.”
Prediction: Manchester City 2-2 Liverpool
