Tuesday: Ipswich Town v Crystal Palace (11.30pm kick-off UAE)
Ipswich are second bottom, albeit only behind Wolves and Crystal Palace on goal difference, after their 1-0 loss at Nottingham Forest. The Tractor Boys have still managed just a single victory from their 13 games so far.
Palace needed an injury-time goal from Daniel Munoz to rescue a point at home to Newcastle at the weekend, although the Eagles will be wondering how they didn't seal their second win of the season after their 16 attempts on goal compared to their opponents' one.
Prediction: Ipswich 1 Palace 2
Leicester City v West Ham United (12.15am)
Leicester will have new manager Ruud van Nistelrooy in the dug out for the first time after caretaker boss Ben Dawson oversaw a 4-1 drubbing by Brentford on Saturday. The Foxes are 16th in the table, one point above the drop zone and five behind 14th-placed West Ham.
West Ham failed to build on their 2-0 win at Newcastle last time out when they suffered a thrashing of their own when after being beaten 5-2 at home by Arsenal, with all seven goals coming in a manic first half at the London Stadium.
Prediction: Leicester 1 West Ham 1
Wednesday: Everton v Wolves (11.30pm)
Everton were walloped 4-0 against Manchester United on Sunday after a dreadful defensive performance littered with individual errors at Old Trafford. Sean Dyche's side have gone five matches without a win and are only two points and three places above third-bottom Wolves.
Wolves' four-match unbeaten run came to a halt when they were thumped 4-2 at home by Bournemouth, a loss that denied Gary O'Neil's side a third win on the spin. Goalkeeper Jose Sa was also involved in an ugly confrontation with a Wolves supporter at the end of the first half in what was a miserable day for the Midlands club.
Prediction: Everton 1 Wolves 0
Manchester City v Nottingham Forest (11.30pm)
City are looking to avoid a fifth Premier League defeat in a row after an astonishing run of form that has seen the reigning champions drop down to fifth, 11 points behind runaway leaders Liverpool. City's defeat at Anfield on Sunday also means they have not won for seven matches across competitions.
A penalty just after half time from Chris Wood – taking the New Zealand striker's tally for the season to nine in the league – earned Forest a narrow win over Ipswich that lifted Nuno Espirito Santo's men up to sixth in the table.
Prediction: Man City 2 Forest 1
Newcastle v Liverpool (11.30pm)
Newcastle failed to register a shot on target at Palace with their goal in 1-1 draw coming courtesy of home defender Marc Guehi. The Magpies are 11th in the table, although only four points behind Brighton in fourth.
Goals from Cody Gakpo and Mohamed Salah earned Liverpool a 2-0 win over Man City, which increased the Merseysiders' lead at the top of the table to nine points, having won 11 out of 13 games so far.
Prediction: Newcastle 1 Liverpool 3
Southampton v Chelsea (11.30pm)
Southampton remain marooned at the bottom of the table despite a battling 1-1 draw at Brighton last Friday with Flynn Downes' second-half finish earning his side a point. The Saints are four points shy of safety having lost 10 out of 13 matches.
Chelsea are up to third in the standings after a comprehensive 3-0 victory over Aston Villa, with Nicolas Jackson and Cole Palmer among the goals, and are behind second-placed Arsenal only on goal difference.
Prediction: Southampton 1 Chelsea 4
Arsenal v Manchester United (12.15am)
Arsenal are back up to second place after their mini-blip and their 5-2 win at West Ham means that the Gunners have now scored 13 goals in their past three matches.
New Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim's first Premier League game in charge at Old Trafford finished in an emphatic win over Everton with Marcus Rashford and Joshua Zirkzee both scoring twice. Victory moved the Red Devils up to ninth.
Prediction: Arsenal 3 Man United 1
Aston Villa v Brentford (12.15am)
Villa's miserable run continues after a loss at Chelsea that means manager Unai Emery is currently enduring the longest winless run of his reign, having not won in eight matches, leaving his team down in 12th place.
Brentford are up to eighth after thrashing Leicester City at the Gtech Community Stadium, a game that saw Kevin Schade grab a hat-trick in what was the Bees' fourth home win in a row. Their away record is far less impressive, though, having secured a solitary point from six matches.
Prediction: Villa 1 Brentford 0
Thursday: Fulham v Brighton (11.30pm)
Fulham can count themselves unfortunate to come away from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium with only a point in a game that saw Cottagers' midfielder Tom Cairney score and then get sent off in an eventful cameo as second-half substitute.
Brighton remain in the top four despite only drawing at home to bottom club Southampton as they failed to build on Kaoru Mitoma's first-half header and missed out on the chance to win a third match in a row.
Prediction: Fulham 1 Brighton 1
Bournemouth v Spurs (12.15am)
Bournemouth avoided a third defeat on the spin by winning convincingly at Wolves when Justin Kluivert became the first player since Ken Barnes for Manchester City against Everton in 1957 to score a hat-trick of penalties in an English top-flight game.
Injuries and suspension hampered Spurs' attempts to build on their sensational 4-0 win at Manchester City as Ange Postecoglou's side could only draw at home to Fulham, missing out on the chance to close the gap on the top four, which stands at three places and three points.
Prediction: Bournemouth 2 Spurs 1

How to become a Boglehead
Bogleheads follow simple investing philosophies to build their wealth and live better lives. Just follow these steps.
• Spend less than you earn and save the rest. You can do this by earning more, or being frugal. Better still, do both.
• Invest early, invest often. It takes time to grow your wealth on the stock market. The sooner you begin, the better.
• Choose the right level of risk. Don't gamble by investing in get-rich-quick schemes or high-risk plays. Don't play it too safe, either, by leaving long-term savings in cash.
• Diversify. Do not keep all your eggs in one basket. Spread your money between different companies, sectors, markets and asset classes such as bonds and property.
• Keep charges low. The biggest drag on investment performance is all the charges you pay to advisers and active fund managers.
• Keep it simple. Complexity is your enemy. You can build a balanced, diversified portfolio with just a handful of ETFs.
• Forget timing the market. Nobody knows where share prices will go next, so don't try to second-guess them.
• Stick with it. Do not sell up in a market crash. Use the opportunity to invest more at the lower price.
What is tokenisation?
Tokenisation refers to the issuance of a blockchain token, which represents a virtually tradable real, tangible asset. A tokenised asset is easily transferable, offers good liquidity, returns and is easily traded on the secondary markets.

Closing the loophole on sugary drinks
As The National reported last year, non-fizzy sugared drinks were not covered when the original tax was introduced in 2017. Sports drinks sold in supermarkets were found to contain, on average, 20 grams of sugar per 500ml bottle.
The non-fizzy drink AriZona Iced Tea contains 65 grams of sugar – about 16 teaspoons – per 680ml can. The average can costs about Dh6, which would rise to Dh9.
Drinks such as Starbucks Bottled Mocha Frappuccino contain 31g of sugar in 270ml, while Nescafe Mocha in a can contains 15.6g of sugar in a 240ml can.
Flavoured water, long-life fruit juice concentrates, pre-packaged sweetened coffee drinks fall under the ‘sweetened drink’ category
Not taxed:
Freshly squeezed fruit juices, ground coffee beans, tea leaves and pre-prepared flavoured milkshakes do not come under the ‘sweetened drink’ band.

Other ways to buy used products in the UAE
UAE insurance firm Al Wathba National Insurance Company (AWNIC) last year launched an e-commerce website with a facility enabling users to buy car wrecks.
Bidders and potential buyers register on the online salvage car auction portal to view vehicles, review condition reports, or arrange physical surveys, and then start bidding for motors they plan to restore or harvest for parts.
Physical salvage car auctions are a common method for insurers around the world to move on heavily damaged vehicles, but AWNIC is one of the few UAE insurers to offer such services online.
For cars and less sizeable items such as bicycles and furniture, Dubizzle is arguably the best-known marketplace for pre-loved.
Founded in 2005, in recent years it has been joined by a plethora of Facebook community pages for shifting used goods, including Abu Dhabi Marketplace, Flea Market UAE and Arabian Ranches Souq Market while sites such as The Luxury Closet and Riot deal largely in second-hand fashion.
At the high-end of the pre-used spectrum, resellers such as Timepiece360.ae, WatchBox Middle East and Watches Market Dubai deal in authenticated second-hand luxury timepieces from brands such as Rolex, Hublot and Tag Heuer, with a warranty.

Mane points for safe home colouring
- Natural and grey hair takes colour differently than chemically treated hair
- Taking hair from a dark to a light colour should involve a slow transition through warmer stages of colour
- When choosing a colour (especially a lighter tone), allow for a natural lift of warmth
- Most modern hair colours are technique-based, in that they require a confident hand and taught skills
- If you decide to be brave and go for it, seek professional advice and use a semi-permanent colour
