Alan Shearer has delivered his latest Premier League predictions, with the Manchester Derby as the standout match this weekend. Manchester United will host Manchester City. Under Maresca, Manchester City have won three consecutive matches under their new manager; Manchester United, managed by Carrick, however, have had a slightly rocky start, dropping points against Everton in the previous round.

Arsenal have started their title defense with a perfect beginning, their solid defense continuing their outstanding form from last season. On Saturday night at the Stadium of Light, they will face Sunderland away.

Chelsea suffered a narrow defeat at the Emirates Stadium in the previous round and will aim to bounce back with a win at home against Hull City this weekend.

Shearer predicts a 1-1 draw in the Manchester Derby, and victories for Arsenal, Liverpool, and Chelsea.

Aston Villa vs. Nottingham Forest

I remember Villa had a terrible start last year, didn't they? I remember they didn't win in five games. But the whole team didn't panic then, and there's no need to panic now. I predict they'll beat Forest this weekend and pick up three points.

They secured a big win in European competition, collecting three points away, starting their Champions League campaign successfully. This victory is very important for them. You know, last year, getting around 8-9 points would give them a chance at the play-off spot, and 16 points could take them into the group stage proper of the Champions League. Considering all these factors, I think Villa can beat Forest this weekend.

Forest also desperately need a win. They played well against Liverpool, but I still expect Villa to beat Forest.

Prediction: Aston Villa win

Bournemouth vs. Brentford

Bournemouth could have been three or four goals up against Newcastle in the first half, even though both goals had deflections. One concern I have about Bournemouth: they can press their opponents intensely for 60 minutes, but their stamina drops in the final half hour.

It's very difficult to maintain this level of pressure throughout a match. However, their physical condition is excellent in the first hour, after which they run out of steam, and opponents often score late in the match, which has hurt the team. Both teams are evenly matched in strength, so I predict a draw; it will be difficult to separate them.

Prediction: Draw

Chelsea vs. Hull City

Before the season started, if I told you that Hull City would be the only team among the 92 English league teams yet to concede a goal, you'd probably laugh at me. Hull City deserve credit; their performance has been quite impressive. But I think their clean sheet record will end this weekend. I predict Chelsea will win, possibly even scoring three or four goals.

Looking at Chelsea's performance, their attack is very strong, but there are still defensive vulnerabilities. Alonso still has many defensive issues to work through. However, the three strikers up front are top-class, always creating threats and scoring goals.

Their problem is defense. Hull City may give Chelsea a tough time on Saturday, but I'm confident Chelsea's quality is enough to win the match.

Prediction: Chelsea win

Crystal Palace vs. Ipswich

Ipswich have had a decent start to the season, beating Sunderland in their opening match, but their subsequent performances haven't been particularly impressive. Crystal Palace beat Fulham, a win they absolutely had to get; if they hadn't picked up the points, the discussion around Crystal Palace would be similar to how Fulham are being evaluated now. I think they need to maintain their winning momentum, and I expect Crystal Palace to beat Ipswich at home. This is an important match for both teams.

After beating Fulham last week to pick up points, Crystal Palace, playing at home, will see this as another chance to secure three points. This is a crucial meeting, and I expect Crystal Palace to win at home.

Prediction: Crystal Palace win

Liverpool vs. Fulham

I think Liverpool should and will win this match. They picked up a good result in their midweek European match, but there are still defensive concerns. However, at Anfield, I'm confident their strength is enough to beat their opponents.

Isak's fitness is crucial for Newcastle; he needs to continue his current brilliant form. After all the challenges last season, a good start like this is very important for him personally and for Newcastle.

Before the season started, I was slightly concerned about the prospects of one or two teams like Crystal Palace and Fulham. So, I'm not surprised by Fulham's current start. Arbeloa desperately needs a win, and if he doesn't get one, the consequences are predictable. There are two league rounds remaining before the international break, and Fulham must try to pick up points in both of these matches.

Prediction: Liverpool win

Tottenham Hotspur vs. Everton

Maitland-Niles' strike was brilliant, and Everton pulled off a fantastic comeback against Manchester United last week. But this draw can't hide their problems with their forward line and squad depth. However, picking up a point against Manchester United is still very significant. Tottenham Hotspur are desperate to win and score goals. This match is difficult to predict, but I forecast a draw.

Prediction: Draw

Sunderland vs. Arsenal

Arsenal's squad has depth at every position, and they're performing very consistently. Sunderland picked up good points away at Brentford in the previous round, but Arsenal are far superior to them. I think Arsenal will dominate most opponents this season, and I expect Arsenal to win and continue their brilliant start.

Prediction: Arsenal win

Coventry vs. Brighton

Coventry's performance against Manchester City last week impressed me; it's a shame they didn't get a point. They can gain confidence from that match. I expect Coventry to pick up their first points of the season. Brighton also hope to get something away, but they'll likely only manage a draw this weekend.

Prediction: Draw

Manchester United vs. Manchester City

Manchester United played in European competition on Thursday, while Manchester City completed their Champions League match on Tuesday. The schedule is not ideal for Manchester United, but that can't be an excuse. They fought hard last season to qualify for the Champions League, so there's no need to complain about playing a league match on Sunday after a European match on Thursday. Of course, I understand everyone would prefer equal preparation conditions to Manchester City.

Manchester United often perform brilliantly in big matches. However, from their matches against Hull City and last weekend against Everton, it's clear that they often make basic defensive errors. Even though Maitland-Niles' goal was brilliant, Manchester United often fail to fully utilize their potential in crucial derby matches. Therefore, I predict a draw, with both teams picking up one point.

Prediction: Draw

Leeds United vs. Newcastle United

The atmosphere at Elland Road is always electric. Newcastle are only about an hour and a half away, so a large number of away fans will attend. The stadium atmosphere will be lively. I expect Newcastle to win away and hope the team continues their current good momentum.

Prediction: Newcastle United win
