Steve Cooper will look to lead Nottingham Forest to another win at home

This weekend's big-priced Premier League treble features another Aston Villa win without conceding against a Crystal Palace side struggling for goals, while we also suggest a home victory for Nottingham Forest over Everton and a goalscorer selection in Sunday's big Liverpool versus Manchester United showdown.

This treble would return £217.35 from a £10 stake at odds of just over 20/1.

Saturday, 3pm

After a tricky run of fixtures, Villa got back to winning ways last week with a 2-0 success at Everton, and things generally appear to be looking up for the Midlanders under Unai Emery.

They are rooted in mid-table but look closer to a top-six push than being dragged into the relegation scrap when analysing their performances, and since the Spaniard has taken over, they have recorded home wins over Manchester United and Chelsea and also won well away at the likes of Brighton and Tottenham, to add to last week's impressive raid at Goodison Park.

Taking on a Palace outfit that has not won any of their last nine games in all competitions and have only managed five goals in that fairly dismal run should not hold too many fears then, and Villa can edge it while keeping a clean sheet.

Backing Forest to see off struggling Everton at 17/10 with LiveScore Bet seems wise to add into the value treble when you consider Steve Cooper's side have only lost one of their last 11 at home in all competitions, and that was not in the league but instead a 3-0 defeat to Manchester United in the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg.

During that run at a bouncing City Ground, they have beaten Liverpool, Tottenham, Leicester and Leeds and picked up creditable draws against Chelsea, Brentford and Manchester City.

Everton visit the East Midlands in plenty of trouble with Sean Dyche's men in the thick of the relegation scrap as they sit in the bottom three and have only won two of their last 13 top-flight games.

Away from home, they have won just once in the league all season, with four draws and seven defeats on their record, so the Toffees will hardly be approaching Sunday's trip to the Trent with confidence.

The final selection for the treble is a Diogo Jota goal for Liverpool in their big home clash with rivals Manchester United, also on Sunday.

The tables have turned somewhat between these two long-standing foes this season, with United now back amongst the silverware and seemingly cemented in the top four this term, while Liverpool, who have finished above the Red Devils in three of the last four seasons, currently off the pace in sixth.

However, there have been signs of late that Jurgen Klopp's side are regaining some of their old form as Wednesday's 2-0 win over Wolves secured their 10th point from a possible last 12 and was a fourth clean sheet in the league on the bounce.

Jota returned from over three months out injured last month, and while he has yet to score since being back fit, the Portuguese has gone very close on several occasions, and it seems it will only be a matter of time before he finds the back of the net again.

If he does score, it would add to his impressive goal tally for the Reds, which stands so far at 34 from 97 games, while Jota does like taking on United as he has scored four goals and grabbed two assists in eight previous matches against them.
