side a 24.9 per cent chance of winning the clash, with the newly promoted side sitting second from bottom having failed to win so far this season, but managed to hold Nottingham Forest to a 1-1 draw last weekend, with Lyle Foster being sent off in the fourth minute of injury time.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere, unbeaten Arsenal and Tottenham go head-to-head in what is gearing up to be one of the biggest North London Derbies for a long time, with both sides enjoying impressive starts\u00a0to the new league campaign.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/22\/14\/75731181-0-image-a-36_1695390861838.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>A super computer has predicted that Manchester United will end their three-game winless run against Burnley on Saturday<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/22\/14\/75731335-0-image-a-37_1695390880953.jpg\" height=\"422\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Erik ten Hag&#8217;s (pictured) side have endured an underwhelming start to the new campaign dropping to 13th in the table after losing three of their first five matches\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/22\/14\/75731191-0-image-a-38_1695390884143.jpg\" height=\"393\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Vincent Kompany&#8217;s (pictured) newly promoted side are yet to win so far this season\u00a0 and sit second from bottom in the league standings\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Neither have been beaten as yet, with both sides winning four of their opening matches, each drawing the fifth game, with both sitting level on 13 points with Spurs only above Arsenal in second place on goal difference.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Despite losing Harry Kane to Bayern Munich in the summer, Tottenham have still managed to find the back of the net more than most teams in the Premier League under new manager Ange Postecoglou &#8211; scoring 13 times so far, third only to Brighton (15) and Man City (14).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But the supercomputer is favouring Mikel Arteta&#8217;s side to win on Sunday afternoon, giving the Gunners a 47.6 per cent chance of winning with Spurs, who have only beaten their bitter rivals just once in their last 30 Premier League meetings, receiving a 25.7 per cent chance to win the match.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of Man City, Pep Guardiola&#8217;s side go up against Nottingham Forest this weekend and have been given perhaps the biggest chance of winning compared to any other team in action this weekend.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The supercomputer has given the Premier League leaders an 80 per cent chance of beating Nottingham Forest, who have won two and lost two, notably downing Chelsea at the start of September.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Blues, meanwhile, are being backed to recover from their dip in form that has seen them fail to pick up a win in their last two outings.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>They face a stern test in Aston Villa, but Unai Emery&#8217;s side have not enjoyed the best week either, suffering a 3-2 defeat by Legia Warsaw in their opening game of the Europa Conference League on Thursday.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Mauricio Pochettino&#8217;s side have struggled to find the back of the net so far this season, but have been given a 45.3 per cent chance to beat Villa, who conversely have a 26.2 per cent chance of picking up a win at Stamford Bridge.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The south London outfit will be hoping for three points on Sunday which could propel them back up the standings above London rivals Brentford into eighth place, one spot behind Sunday&#8217;s opponents Villa.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/22\/14\/75731357-0-image-a-41_1695390920562.jpg\" height=\"445\" width=\"306\"><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/22\/14\/75731093-0-image-a-40_1695390920093.jpg\" height=\"445\" width=\"306\"><\/p>\n<p>Arsenal and Tottenham will square off against each other in the North London Derby on Sunday<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/22\/14\/75731285-0-image-a-42_1695390926936.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Chelsea are being backed to correct their drop in form against Aston Villa who were beaten 3-2 by Legia Warsaw on Thursday night<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/22\/14\/75731429-0-image-a-43_1695391004554.jpg\" height=\"422\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Thomas Frank (pictured) will be hoping his side can secure their second league win of the season against Everton<\/p>\n<p>Thomas Frank&#8217;s side, meanwhile take on strugglers Everton, who have endured their worst start to a Premier League season, dropping to 18th in the table, failing to secure a win while scoring two-goals so far this season &#8211;
