A former Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur striker, Dimitar Berbatov, has predicted Arsenal to beat Leicester City when both sides clash in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon at the King Power Stadium.

Berbatov also predicted Chelsea and Manchester United to play a draw at Stamford Bridge on Sunday evening.

He also backed Everton to beat Southampton at Goodison Park on Monday night.

Providing his predictions, Berbatov was quoted by Metro UK as saying: “An interesting game. I think I will surprise everyone and go with Arsenal because I still think Arteta is doing a good job with the team.

“I am a bit worried about Aubameyang’s form, but they have enough quality for the away win. Prediction: 1-3.”

Commenting on the Chelsea vs Man United game, the Bulgarian said, “This is a real tough one and in an intriguing clash near the top of the table.

“Chelsea are playing good football, and United continue to have ups and downs, so I think this could be too close to call, which is why I’m going for a draw. Prediction: 2-2.”

On the Everton vs Southampton match, Berbatov said, “Everton should do it here, as Southampton need to turn their form around at the moment, and I can’t see them doing that at Goodison Park. Prediction: 2-1.”

The kick-off time for Leicester City vs Arsenal is 1 pm, while that of Chelsea vs Man United is 5:30 pm and Everton vs Southampton is 9 pm.
