Good day and welcome to our Sunday football predictions blog for 17th August 2025. Here we check out well in advance the games involving the televised Super Sunday matches and the rest of the games being played around Europe.
At the weekend I like to place a couple of bets days in advance. These bets are:
- Bet Of The Day Double – 2 selections from popular matches.
- Long Shot Single – 1 selection that is high risk and holds odds of over 3/1, where I am expecting an upset to happen.
I then share these Sunday football predictions here to hopefully aid you in your decisions, or at the very least to provide a different viewpoint to your own.

Nottingham Forest v Brentford
🏴 Premier League 🏴
Nottingham Forest exceeded expectations last season with a seventh place finish in the Premier League. As such no real radical changes in the squad have occurred. This should lead to continuity of performance due to less bedding in time for new players.
In comparison, Brentford head out with a new, unproven manager in the Premier league in Keith Andrews. The Bees have lost Mbeumo and Norgaard, who were both key players last season and speculation at time of writing would suggest Wissa is unhappy and looking for a move away.
With Nottingham Forest looking stable and Brenford looking somewhat unstable, the home team here should be the one pulling out the better performance, in my opinion.
Manchester United v Arsenal
🏴 Premier League 🏴
Manchester United and Arsenal have spent big this summer with both forking out over €220 million on players. However, neither team have brought in any income from selling players. Both teams seem content in building on their squad, rather than changing it, especially Manchester United who have used their cash to bring in just three players (Mbeumo, Sesko and Cunha).
That strategy may work for Arsenal as they competed well last season finishing in second place. However, for Manchester United after finishing fifteenth, a more offloading and replacing job is warranted, in my opinion. As they haven’t, I see the same sort of problems cropping up as last season, especially in the defensive areas of the field. Therefore, I’m confident that Arsenal will be taking home all three points from this fixture.

Crytal Palace to beat Chelsea (away) 2pm 
4/1 on the single*

Chelsea v Crystal Palace
🏴 Premier League 🏴
There’s always a degree of uncertainty when it comes to the opening fixture of a season, but after beating Chelsea to win the FA Cup and then beating Liverpool to lift the Community Shield, Crystal Palace must be on cloud nine. They didn’t steal the wins either, they deserved them, in my opinion.
Palace showed they have the ability to soak up pressure, stay compact and frustrate teams. They have also shown explosiveness in the attack to be a very dangerous force from a counter attacking perspective. Crystal Palace certainly won’t be shying away from the challenge here and the Chelsea attacking style of play may well play in to Palace’s hands.
