Sky Sports pundit Paul Merson gives his Premier League predictions for Gameweek 5 – Express.co.uk

Bournemouth and Brighton kicked off Gameweek 5 down at the Vitality Stadium last night. 

And Merson correctly predicted the Cherries would take three points over minnows Brighton. 

Jermain Defoe’s well-taken strike earned Eddie Howe’s side their first win of the season. 

Crystal Palace host Southampton in the early kick-off today and Merson is expecting a 1-1 stalemate in Roy Hodgson’s first game as the Eagles boss. 

But the former Gunners man is expecting Arsenal to slip to 3-0 defeat to rivals Chelsea tomorrow. 

Who else is Merson tipping to take three points this weekend?
