Good day and welcome to our Sunday football predictions blog for 17th May 2026. 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.
Super Sunday Betting Tips
- Manchester United to beat Nottingham Forest (home) 12:30pm 3/5
- Fulham to beat Wolves (away) 3pm 9/10
2/1 on the double*
Manchester United v Nottingham Forest
🏴 Premier League 🏴
Nottingham Forest’s season is done. A point at home to Newcastle last weekend was enough to guarantee Premier League football again next season, taking the pressure off the last two games.
Therefore, there won’t be too much expectation or motivation from fans or players to now go on and finish off the season strongly.
Manchester have secured Champions League football next season, but will still want to take that third place spot and will also want to put on a show for their fans in their last home game of the season.
That gives Manchester United the edge in this fixture, in my opinion and so I am happy to back them at the price that is being offered on the win.
Manchester United v Nottingham Forest
Wolves v Fulham
🏴 Premier League 🏴
Wolves have been the whipping boys of the 25/26 Premier League table, achieving only 18 points from 36 matches and holding a -41 goal difference.
Fulham have been inconsistent in their performances and it is no secret they have been struggling for results away from home, but they have been quite consistent in gaining victories against teams at the foot of the table.
Given they beat Wolves 3-0 in the reverse fixture, I’m confident they will get the job done again, albeit by a smaller margin.

Crystal Palace to beat Brentford (away) 3pm
3/1 on the single*
Brentford v Crystal Palace
🏴 Premier League 🏴
It’s kitchen sink time for West Ham who have dropped back in to the relegation zone with just three games remaining. The Hammers cannot afford to drop any more points and so despite being pitted against local rivals and the league leaders, they will be giving everything towards pulling off a win.
Arsenal have got themselves out of a rough patch, but I still believe there are bumps in the road for both them and Manchester City in their quests to finish league champions and I believe this fixture could well be one of those stumbling blocks.
