Premier League Gameweek 7 Predicted Lineups: Leeds United vs Manchester United

Gameweek 7 delivers a packed slate headlined by a rivalry clash between Leeds United and Manchester United, while Nottingham Forest host an Arsenal side that will be without William Saliba. Liverpool make a tricky trip to Brentford with Gravenberch suspended and several key attackers listed as doubts, adding real uncertainty to one of the weekend's most intriguing fixtures.

Availability concerns are spread across the board this round. Manchester City welcome Ipswich to the Etihad without any reported injury worries, while Hull City arrive at Fulham with a lengthy absentee list that could make their task even harder. Crystal Palace lose Axel Disasi to suspension for the Brighton derby, and Tottenham must cope without Rodrigo Bentancur as they host newly promoted Coventry City.

Everton vs Chelsea - Saturday, 7:30 AM ET

Predicted Lineup Gameweek 7

Everton: Pickford; Branthwaite, Keane, Tarkowski, Maitland-Niles; Garner, Armstrong; Grealish, Dewsbury-Hall, Johnson; Barry
Chelsea: Martinez; Lacroix, Acheampong, Colwill; Chavarria, Caicedo, Henderson, Neto; Palmer, Rogers; Joao Pedro

Everton are predicted to go without Mykolenko, who is doubtful, with Maitland-Niles expected to fill in at left back. Chelsea have a more significant concern at the back, with Reece James listed as questionable, while Gittens is ruled out entirely. Emegha is also doubtful up front, meaning Joao Pedro is expected to lead the Chelsea attack. Cole Palmer slots in behind in an advanced role alongside Rogers, giving Chelsea considerable creativity through the middle.

Bettors considering the moneyline should note Chelsea's attacking quality gives them an edge even with injury concerns, though Everton's low block can make them stubborn at home. Both teams to score carries some appeal given Palmer's ability to unlock defenses and Everton's tendency to find a goal of their own. Grealish and Johnson provide width for Everton, and either could be worth a look in anytime scorer markets at longer prices.

Brentford vs Liverpool - Saturday, 10:00 AM ET

Predicted Lineup Gameweek 7

Brentford: Kelleher; Diouf, van den Berg, Ajer, Kayode; Yarmolyuk, Janelt; Lewis-Potter, Jensen, Anthony; Igor Thiago
Liverpool: Alisson; Kerkez, van Dijk, Jacquet, Araujo; Mac Allister, Nyoni; Barcola, Wirtz, Munoz; Koumas

This is a fascinating fixture from an availability standpoint. Liverpool are without Gravenberch through suspension and Bradley and Ekitike are ruled out. Gakpo, Isak and Szoboszlai are all listed as doubtful, with Nyoni stepping into a starting midfield role alongside Mac Allister. Koumas is expected to lead the line. Brentford also have a string of doubts including Collins, Damsgaard, Dasilva, Milambo and Schade, while Furo is out, leaving the hosts relatively thin in wide areas.

With Liverpool's attacking options depleted, the total may be worth monitoring, and the under could appeal in a match where both sides have injury concerns in forward areas. Brentford are no pushovers at home and the draw should not be dismissed entirely. For goalscorer markets, Wirtz remains Liverpool's creative engine and could find the net despite the disrupted supporting cast, while Igor Thiago gives Brentford a focal point to build around.

Fulham vs Hull City - Saturday, 10:00 AM ET

Predicted Lineup Gameweek 7

Fulham: Leno; Sessegnon, Bassey, Affengruber, Castagne; Berge, Charles; Iwobi, King, Bobb; Garcia
Hull City: Tzolakis; Giles, Ajayi, Egan, Herrington, Coyle; Thomas, Iroegbunam, Slater, Belloumi; McBurnie

Hull arrive at Craven Cottage in serious trouble on the injury front, with eight players listed as out including Butland, Targett, Gyabi, Gourna-Douath, Matazo, Mendy, Hughes and Ansah. That is a significant chunk of their likely best XI. Fulham have their own doubts with Cairney questionable and Robinson also uncertain, but the hosts are in a far stronger position in terms of available personnel. Garcia is expected to lead the Fulham attack supported by Iwobi, Bobb and King.

Given Hull's depleted squad, Fulham on the moneyline looks like the most straightforward angle in this fixture. The hosts have the quality and depth to control this game, and over goals could also be in play if Hull struggle to hold their shape with a makeshift defense. Garcia, Iwobi and Bobb are all worth considering in the anytime scorer markets, with Fulham likely to create multiple opportunities against a weakened visiting side.

Manchester City vs Ipswich Town - Saturday, 10:00 AM ET

Predicted Lineup Gameweek 7

Manchester City: Donnarumma; O'Reilly, Dias, Guehi, Nunes; Anderson, Bouaddi; Semenyo, Foden, Ndiaye; Haaland
Ipswich Town: Walton; Davis, O'Shea, Diop, Ouattara; Lukic, Palacios; Philogene, Enciso, Fatawu; Emersonn

Manchester City report no injuries ahead of this one, which is rare and welcome news. Donnarumma starts in goal, with Dias and Guehi forming a solid central partnership. Haaland leads the attack with Foden pulling the strings in the number ten role, supported by Semenyo and Ndiaye on the flanks. Ipswich have just Jack Taylor listed as doubtful but will face a formidable test regardless. Philogene and Fatawu provide some width going forward.

City on the moneyline is the headline angle here and they are heavy favorites for good reason. Haaland is the standout anytime scorer selection at almost any price, and City's depth of attacking talent makes the over an attractive consideration. For more adventurous parlay builders, Ipswich to keep it close or score themselves is a longer shot but Enciso and Philogene carry enough quality to threaten. City's clean sheet is also worth exploring given Ipswich's limited firepower.

Newcastle United vs Aston Villa - Saturday, 12:30 PM ET

Predicted Lineup Gameweek 7

Newcastle United: Hornicek; Hall, Thiaw, Botman, Dedic; Nico Gonzalez, Joelinton, Miley; Barnes, Wissa, Fernandez-Pardo
Aston Villa: Suzuki; Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Mings, Cash; Kamara, Joao Gomes; Manzambi, Buendia, McGinn; Jackson

Newcastle are missing Elanga, Livramento, Jaouen and Jacob Ramsey to injury, while Toure is doubtful. Wissa is expected to feature in a front three alongside Barnes and Fernandez-Pardo. Villa are without Maatsen, Onana and Ruggeri, with Cisse and Hemmings listed as doubtful. Jackson leads the attack with Buendia providing the creative spark in behind, and McGinn adds energy from the right.

This is an evenly matched fixture on paper, making the draw and both teams to score worth exploring. Newcastle at home carry a slight edge in the moneyline market, though Villa have enough attacking talent through Buendia and Jackson to find a goal. Barnes is a useful anytime scorer option for Newcastle at a reasonable price, while Jackson will be the focus for Villa goalscorer angles. The injury picture for both sides means neither defense is at full strength, supporting the case for goals.

Bournemouth vs Sunderland - Sunday, 9:00 AM ET

Predicted Lineup Gameweek 7

Bournemouth: Petrovic; Truffert, Hill, Antonio Silva, Smith; Adams, Christie; Gannon Doak, Tavernier, Rayan; Evanilson
Sunderland: Roefs; Reinildo, Danso, Mukiele, Hume; Sadiki, Xhaka; Angulo, Le Fee, Fofana; Isidor

Bournemouth are without Araujo, Kroupi and Alex Scott through injury, with Milosavljevic also doubtful in defense. Despite that, they field a balanced predicted XI with Evanilson leading the line and Gannon Doak and Rayan providing pace in wide areas. Sunderland have Isidor listed as both a starter and doubtful, which is worth monitoring before kickoff. Meunier is also questionable, while Ballard and Mundle are ruled out.

Bournemouth are slight favorites at home and Evanilson is the natural first name in any goalscorer parlay for this fixture. Xhaka gives Sunderland genuine quality in midfield and Angulo adds a threat from the left, so both teams to score is plausible. If Isidor is confirmed fit and starts, Sunderland's attack looks more dangerous. The moneyline for Bournemouth at home is a reasonable anchor for a wider parlay, and the over could be in play given both sides have capable forwards.

Brighton and Hove Albion vs Crystal Palace - Sunday, 9:00 AM ET

Predicted Lineup Gameweek 7

Brighton and Hove Albion: Verbruggen; Boscagli, Dunk, Vuskovic, Kadioglu; Gross, Chema; De Cuyper, Ayari, Diego Gomez; Kostoulas
Crystal Palace: Benitez; Lerma, Richards, Canvot; Mitchell, Timber, Wharton, Khalaili; Pino, Kamada; Strand Larsen

Brighton are dealing with a significant cluster of doubtful players, including Hinshelwood, Minteh, Mitoma, Osman, Struijk, Wieffer and Yohanna, with Ferguson, Tzimas and Azeez all ruled out. That is a heavily disrupted squad and Kostoulas is expected to lead the line. Crystal Palace lose Disasi to suspension and have Henderson, Mateta and Tomiyasu all flagged as questionable, with Riad also out.

Brighton are heavy favorites at home but their long injury list introduces uncertainty, particularly in the attacking third where several preferred options are absent. Palace will be defensively stretched without Disasi, but Strand Larsen gives them a physical option up front. Bettors may want to look at a reduced Brighton winning margin or find value in Strand Larsen as an anytime scorer. The under could appeal given both sides are missing key creative players, though Pino and Kamada can still unlock defenses on their day.

Leeds United vs Manchester United - Sunday, 9:00 AM ET

Predicted Lineup Gameweek 7

Leeds United: Trafford; Elvedi, Justin, Muharemovic; Gudmundsson, Tanaka, Ampadu, Bogle; Okafor, Stach; Calvert-Lewin
Manchester United: Lammens; Shaw, Maguire, Martinez, Dalot; Tielemans, Mainoo; Cunha, Bruno Fernandes, Amad Diallo; Mbeumo

The rivalry fixture of the weekend comes with a handful of availability questions. Daniel James is doubtful for Leeds, while Joseph and Rodon are ruled out. Calvert-Lewin is expected to lead the line for the hosts. Manchester United list Luke Shaw and Kobbie Mainoo both as doubtful despite their predicted inclusion in the XI, so those selections are worth watching before kickoff. Mazraoui, Dorgu, Sesko and Ugarte are all out for United, and both Darlow and Heaton are doubtful as backup goalkeepers.

With Mainoo and Shaw both questionable, United's lineup could look quite different at kickoff. Bruno Fernandes is the standout creative talent for United and Mbeumo provides genuine goal threat up front, making them popular choices in scorer markets. Leeds at home in a derby carry crowd intensity that can level the playing field, and Calvert-Lewin offers a reliable target at useful odds. Both teams to score has strong appeal in a fixture where both sides will be highly motivated and neither defense is fully settled.

Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal - Sunday, 11:30 AM ET

Predicted Lineup Gameweek 7

Nottingham Forest: Sels; Cunha, Murillo, Diomande; Williams, Schlager, McAtee, Munoz; Gibbs-White, Ndoye; Delap
Arsenal: Raya; Calafiori, Konsa, Gabriel, White; Rice, Lewis-Skelly; Eze, Odegaard, Saka; Havertz

Arsenal travel to the City Ground without Saliba, who is out, and Hincapie and Tzolis are also unavailable. Zubimendi is listed as doubtful. Konsa partners Gabriel in central defense, which represents a notable change from Arsenal's preferred setup. Forest have Milenkovic and Savona both doubtful, while Igor Jesus is ruled out, meaning Delap is expected to lead the line with Gibbs-White and Ndoye supporting him in an advanced midfield role.

Arsenal are favorites but Saliba's absence is a meaningful blow against a physical Forest attack featuring Delap. Bettors looking at the moneyline should weigh that defensive uncertainty, while Forest at home at a long price could appeal as a parlay addition. Saka and Odegaard are the go-to Arsenal anytime scorer options, and Havertz could find space against a Forest backline missing key personnel. Gibbs-White is worth considering as a Forest scorer given his ability to arrive late into the box and influence big moments.

Tottenham Hotspur vs Coventry City - Monday, 3:00 PM ET

Predicted Lineup Gameweek 7

Tottenham Hotspur: Kinsky; Udogie, van Hecke, van de Ven, Gray; Bergvall, Tonali; Savio, Gallagher, Kudus; Solanke
Coventry City: Rushworth; Jay Dasilva, Pinnock, Thomas, van Ewijk; Yirenkyi, Grimes; Mason-Clark, Rudoni, Thomas-Asante; Awoniyi

Tottenham are without the suspended Bentancur and have Kulusevski and Robertson listed as doubtful. Porro, Mudryk, Odobert and Simons are all ruled out, leaving Spurs without significant depth in wide areas. Gallagher and Kudus are expected to provide creativity behind Solanke. Coventry have Kesler-Hayden doubtful and Amenda, Eccles, Woolfenden and Wright all unavailable, with Awoniyi expected to lead the line despite Coventry's own defensive absences.

Spurs are strong favorites at home against a Coventry side still finding their feet in the top flight. Solanke leads the line and is a natural first choice for anytime scorer in this fixture, while Kudus and Savio can also contribute from wide positions. Coventry have the attacking tools in Awoniyi and Thomas-Asante to nick a goal, which makes both teams to score a conversation worth having for parlay builders. The total leaning over is reasonable if Spurs find early rhythm and Coventry push for something going forward.
