Premier League Matchweek 10 runs from Friday, 6 November to Sunday, 8 November 2026, delivering ten fixtures as Arsenal defend their position at the summit of the table while Manchester City aim to keep pace. Five of this round's matches currently carry projections from our forecasting model, while the remaining calls will appear on each match page the day before kickoff.
The match of the round: Arsenal vs Hull City
League leaders Arsenal enter Saturday's meeting with Hull City having collected 24 points from their opening nine matches. Mikel Arteta's team hold the division's stingiest defensive record, registering six clean sheets and conceding only five times across the campaign. At home, they have won four from four while allowing just two goals, controlling proceedings with 58 percent possession and sustained territorial pressure.
Our model issues a firm projection for an Arsenal win, alongside a high-confidence forecast that the hosts will score first. Even without Bukayo Saka due to injury and Max Dowman through suspension, Arsenal arrive off a 1-0 league win at Liverpool and a 2-1 Champions League victory at Slavia Praha. Hull City sit 11th with 11 points and drew their last two league outings against Ipswich and Brentford, but travel without Charlie Hughes, Darko Gyabi, and Eliot Matazo.
In terms of match flow, the model expects over 2.5 total goals and leans toward at least one side being kept off the scoresheet. For readers tracking speculative calls, a 2-0 Arsenal victory sits as the model's exact-scoreline projection, though that remains a low-confidence expectation as always with specific margins.
Friday
Everton host Coventry to start the weekend. David Moyes' team sit seventh following a 1-0 league win at Newcastle and have established a steady baseline on their own ground, led by top scorer Thierno Barry. Frank Lampard's Coventry collected a 3-1 win over Sunderland last weekend but are stretched defensively, with Aurèle Amenda, Haji Wright, and Josh Eccles sidelined. The model leans toward an Everton win with medium confidence, expecting both teams to score and over 2.5 total goals.
Saturday
Leeds welcome Tottenham in the early kickoff looking to break a five-game winless run in the league. Daniel Farke's side sit 12th and remain unbeaten at home, though Joe Rodon and Mateo Joseph are sidelined. Tottenham have won three consecutive league matches, including 2-0 scorelines against Chelsea and Crystal Palace, with Roberto De Zerbi's side averaging two big chances created per match over their last five games. The model offers a cautious projection for a Tottenham win, though confidence is low in what projects as a tight fixture.
Fulham face Newcastle at Craven Cottage following an unbeaten run of three games under Álvaro Arbeloa that has steadied their campaign. Newcastle sit 13th and have dropped consecutive fixtures to Everton across league and cup action, while Jacob Ramsey serves a suspension alongside injuries to Joelinton and Ewen Jaouen. The model projects a Fulham win with medium confidence, expecting both teams to score.
Nottingham Forest close Saturday against second-placed Manchester City. Oliver Glasner's side are 19th and winless in five league games, failing to score across their four home league fixtures. Manchester City responded to their league defeat against Brighton by winning 3-2 away at RB Leipzig in Europe, with Erling Haaland already on 14 goals in all competitions this season. The model projects a Manchester City win with medium confidence, accompanied by a firm call for City to score first.
Sunday
Third-placed Brighton welcome sixth-placed Brentford in the first of four simultaneous kickoffs. Brighton enter following a 1-0 league win at Manchester City and a 1-0 European victory at Getafe, though Evan Ferguson, Femi Azeez, and Ferdi Kadıoğlu remain sidelined. Brentford won 2-0 against Nottingham Forest in their last league outing, but travel without Fábio Carvalho and Rico Henry.
Crystal Palace meet Liverpool with both teams seeking league points after difficult runs. Palace sit 18th and are without the suspended Jean-Philippe Mateta, while Liverpool have dropped consecutive matches to Arsenal and Fenerbahçe. The visitors sit fifth in the table and are missing Conor Bradley, Giovanni Leoni, and Hugo Ekitiké through injury.
Ipswich take on Bournemouth with three points separating the sides. Ipswich have drawn back-to-back league fixtures against Nottingham Forest and Hull City, while Bournemouth sit eighth after three consecutive wins in all competitions, including a 3-1 Europa League victory at Sparta Praha.
Bottom club Sunderland host fourth-placed Chelsea. Sunderland have lost their last two matches against Coventry and Dinamo Zagreb and will be without the suspended Omar Alderete. Chelsea arrive following a 2-0 home win over Manchester United, though they travel without Aaron Anselmino, Jamie Gittens, and goalkeeper Emiliano Martínez.
Manchester United host Aston Villa in the late fixture. United are 17th after back-to-back league defeats to Bournemouth and Chelsea, though they defeated AS Roma 3-2 in European action on Tuesday. Lisandro Martínez is suspended, while Benjamin Šeško and Carlos Baleba are out injured. Aston Villa sit 10th and are without Amadou Onana, Matteo Ruggeri, and the suspended Matty Cash following a 3-0 defeat at Barcelona.
Table implications
With only three points separating Arsenal and Manchester City at the top, any slip by the leaders against Hull City could pull the title race level before Sunday. At the lower end, Nottingham Forest, Crystal Palace, and Sunderland all risk falling further adrift in the relegation zone if their winless runs extend through the weekend.
