Sky Super 6 challenge

We already see a number of bookmakers offering punters some great prizes for correctly guessing six scores in upcoming Premier League games.

With that in mind, we have decided to take up the Super 6 Challenge.

Here are this week's selections.

Our Super 6 Challenge predictions

Brentford vs Aston Villa

Aston Villa’s trip to Brentford looks set to be a competitive game, but Unai Emery’s side have enough quality to come away with a narrow 2-1 victory. Villa opened their campaign with a 0-0 draw against Newcastle, a match that showed their defensive structure is solid but highlighted the need for greater cutting edge in attack. They produced only 0.20 xG from 16 efforts, many of which came from low-quality positions, but Emery will expect a sharper display this weekend with Morgan Rogers another week fitter after his ankle issue.

Brentford, under new manager Keith Andrews, fell 3-1 at Nottingham Forest in their opener. The underlying data was not entirely negative, as they created 1.46 xG, but defensive lapses and Forest’s efficiency in front of goal proved costly. The Bees’ backline still looks unsettled, and that vulnerability can be exposed by the movement of Ollie Watkins and the pace Emery now has in Donyell Malen and Evann Guessand if he chooses to rotate his attack.

Brentford should still carry a threat, particularly through Igor Thiago and Fabio Carvalho, which makes them good for a goal. But Villa’s stronger squad depth and Emery’s tactical edge point to a 2-1 away win.

Bournemouth vs Wolves

A 2-1 Bournemouth win looks a realistic prediction when they host Wolves at the Vitality Stadium. The Cherries may have lost 4-2 at Liverpool on the opening weekend, but their attacking play was encouraging. They created 1.70 xG, had 10 shots and 2 big chances, showing they can open up top sides. That ability should translate well against a Wolves defence that continues to look fragile.

At home last season Bournemouth averaged 1.70 xG per game, the third-highest figure in the league behind only Liverpool and Arsenal. They were also top five for shots created inside the box, consistently working chances close to goal. Wolves, meanwhile, conceded 37 goals away from home last season and allowed 8.53 shots inside their penalty area per match, ranking among the worst in the division. The trend continued on the opening day with a 4-0 defeat to Manchester City, where they allowed 2.47 xG and 28 penalty-area touches.

The head-to-head history between these clubs points to a tight contest, with most recent meetings decided by fine margins. Wolves still have attacking outlets in Jorgen Strand Larsen and their wide runners, so a goal for them is likely. However, Bournemouth’s pressing game and superior attacking metrics suggest they will edge it, making 2-1 a sensible call.

Arsenal vs Leeds Utd

A 3-1 Arsenal win looks a realistic outcome when weighing up both sides’ profiles and early-season form. At the Emirates last season Arsenal were among the Premier League’s strongest home teams, averaging 1.78 xG per game while allowing just 0.95 xGA. They controlled territory, created plenty of chances inside the box, and conceded very few high-quality opportunities. That same balance was on display in their 1-0 win at Old Trafford, where they restricted Manchester United to low-value efforts and took their chance when it came.

Leeds arrive full of confidence after promotion and a 1-0 opening win over Everton, but their performance told a slightly different story. They generated 2.13 xG from 21 shots yet failed to put the game away, while also conceding two big chances. That kind of openness may be punished by Arsenal, whose front three of Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli and Viktor Gyokeres carry far more threat than Everton’s attack.

Leeds’ midfield will miss Ethan Ampadu, and while Sean Longstaff, Anton Stach and Ao Tanaka provide energy, they may struggle to contain Arsenal’s trio of Declan Rice, Martin Odegaard and Martin Zubimendi. Arsenal’s extra quality should eventually show, with the hosts creating enough to score three, though Leeds’ pace on the counter makes them capable of grabbing a consolation. A 3-1 home win fits the balance.

Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest

A score draw looks the most realistic outcome when Crystal Palace host Nottingham Forest. Both sides arrive off contrasting opening results, but the underlying data points to a fairly even contest that should see goals at both ends.

Palace’s 0-0 draw at Chelsea was a resilient effort, though it also exposed their attacking limitations. They managed just 0.36 xG from open play and only eight touches inside the Chelsea box, with most of their threat coming from set pieces. At Selhurst Park last season, they often struggled to turn control into goals, drawing seven of their 19 home games and failing to score in more than a quarter. That profile suggests they are solid but rarely dominant.

Forest, on the other hand, opened with a 3-1 win over Brentford. They created 4 big chances, had 25 touches in the opposition box and an xGOT of 2.43, highlighting their attacking sharpness. Yet they also conceded 10 shots, seven of them in the box, and had to make 24 clearances, underlining defensive vulnerabilities that mirror last season’s away record.

With Palace steady but blunt at home and Forest open but clinical, a 1-1 draw fits both recent performances and longer-term trends.

Everton vs Brighton

Everton’s meeting with Brighton has all the hallmarks of a tight contest that ends level, and 1-1 stands out as the likeliest score.

Since David Moyes returned, Everton have become organised and difficult to beat. Across his 20 league games in charge, they conceded just 20 goals and only four teams managed to put more than one past them. The defensive shape is reliable, but the flip side is that Everton still look limited going forward. Their 1-0 defeat at Leeds underlined that, with an xG of just 0.80 and only one effort on target, most of their danger coming from set plays. It is a pattern consistent with last season at Goodison, where they failed to score in seven home matches.

Brighton, by contrast, carry a consistent attacking threat on the road. They scored in 18 of 19 away games last season and their draw with Fulham again showed their ability to create chances in open play. However, their defence can be exposed and they conceded 33 away goals last term, with over two thirds of their trips seeing both teams score.

That balance suggests Everton will nick one, probably from a set piece, while Brighton’s forward quality ensures they respond.

Fulham vs Man Utd

Fulham’s record at Craven Cottage last season suggests that Sunday’s clash with Manchester United is set up for another close contest. Marco Silva’s side were beaten only three times at home by top-half teams in 2024/25, and their matches in West London were some of the most reliable both teams to score fixtures in the division. They kept just two clean sheets all season on their own patch, but they also failed to score only four times. That combination produced a league-high seventy four percent both teams to score rate, and their 1-1 draw at Brighton on the opening weekend was a continuation of the same trend.

United, meanwhile, still look short of rhythm in attack despite heavy investment over the summer. Against Arsenal last weekend they had 61% possession and managed twenty two shots, but only three were on target and they came away empty-handed in a 1-0 defeat. That inefficiency was a theme of their away campaign last year, when they failed to score in over a third of their matches and finished with just four wins on the road.

With Fulham difficult to beat at home but unlikely to shut United out, and United creating chances without being clinical, a 1-1 draw feels the most likely outcome.

Score 1-1 at 11/2 with Skybet

The total odds for all six games are a massive 186,744/1 with Skybet, which may be worth a £1 stake for some fun, I am keen to back both Aston Villa and Bournemouth to win 2-1. Combining these two games combined gives you odds of 67/1 with Skybet.
