After the international window was followed by the FA Cup quarter-final weekend, fans of the Premier League can breathe a sigh of relief on Tuesday as the 16-day famine is over!
There's a full round of midweek games across three days, starting with a trio on Tuesday evening that includes Manchester United's trip to high flying Nottingham Forest.
Our expert has picked out the best bets from all three games as the top-flight action returns.
- BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE – ARSENAL VS FULHAM
- JARROD BOWEN ANYTIME GOALSCORER – WOLVES VS WEST HAM
- NOTTINGHAM FOREST TO WIN VS MANCHESTER UNITED
Arsenal vs Fulham
Fulham's season took a turn for the worse on Saturday as they limped out of the FA Cup following a 3-0 defeat at home to Crystal Palace.
Marco Silva lamented watching his side miss some decent openings in the early exchanges at Craven Cottage with Rodrigo Muniz guilty of spurning the best chance.
Silva, who was managing his 500th game at the weekend, now has to pick his troops up for a trip across London to the Emirates.
The Cottagers have actually collected more points (12) than Arsenal (11) across their last six games in the league, with Mikel Arteta's side on a run of just one win in the last four domestically, allowing Liverpool to create a 12-point gap at the top of the table.
The Gunners still have ambitions of silverware in Europe, of course, with Real Madrid looming in the Champions League last-eight stage.
Fulham are unbeaten in the last three Premier League meetings between this pair, including a 2-2 draw at the Emirates last season.
They led at home in December, too, before William Saliba headed in from a corner to earn Arsenal a 1-1 draw.
This looks a tough game to call but Fulham are bidding to score in their 14th consecutive Premier League away game and taking both teams to find the net looks the shrewdest play.
BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE
Wolves vs West Ham
These teams find themselves directly above the trapdoor ahead of this clash at Molineux, with Wolves in 17th and West Ham just a place above them.
Eight points separate the pair, ensuring Graham Potter and his Hammers side will know a win here would all but preserve their top-flight status.
Wolves, for their part, have a healthy nine-point advantage over Ipswich and Leicester behind them in a relegation battle that lacks some spark.
Both of these teams have been doing their bit to clamber clear of the drop zone, taking seven points apiece from the last four games.
When the sides clashed at the London Stadium in December it was billed as 'El Sackico' as Julen Lopetegui and Gary O'Neil battled to save their jobs. The home side got the job done after second-half goals from Tomas Soucek and Jarrod Bowen but, as it happened, neither manager survived to see this return fixture.
Potter came in after Lopetegui got his marching orders and O'Neil made way for Vitor Pereira at Wolves. In truth, neither manager can be overly satisfied with their work so far.
At Wolves, the Portuguese has managed five wins in 13 league games, while Potter has three wins in nine in the league so far at West Ham.
Both are doing enough to stave off any relegation worries at the moment but, as much as anything else, that owes a lot to the ineptitude of the three clubs at the bottom of the standings. A summer of rebuilding surely lies in store.
With Matheus Cunha still suspended, Wolves' attacking capabilities are restricted. They have lost five of the last six Premier League meetings with West Ham home and away and make little appeal as favourites here.
Bowen got the winner in December and the England international relishes a Premier League tussle with the Old Gold, enjoying seven wins and six goals in 10 previous meetings. The 28-year-old can find the net at Molineux.
JARROD BOWEN ANYTIME GOALSCORER
Nottingham Forest vs Manchester United
Nottingham Forest's dream season rolls on after they booked a first FA Cup semi-final appearance in 34 years by defeating Brighton on penalties on Saturday.
Matz Sels was the hero, with two crucial spot-kick saves at the Amex Stadium to keep Forest's hopes of a first FA Cup triumph since 1959 alive.
It wasn't a vintage cup tie by any means, but Forest fans won't care and they have plenty to be feeling good about as boss Nuno Espirito Santo has them on track for a Champions League berth and a possible return to European competition after more than 28 years away.
They are 17 points and 10 places above visitors Manchester United ahead of their City Ground clash with the Red Devils.
Forest have injury worries over Chris Wood, who missed the trip to Brighton, but they have only lost twice at home in the league this season, holding top two Liverpool and Arsenal and beating Manchester City in an eight-game unbeaten league run at the City Ground since November.
They've held Brighton, Arsenal and City goalless here in their last three and a well-organised defence combined with rapid transitions could be just the tonic to see them make it three successive league wins over Manchester United.
The Red Devils are looking to win back-to-back Premier League games this season for the first time, and back-to-back away league games for the first time since winning three in a row in February 2024.
Forest's industriousness can help them hand Ruben Amorim an eighth Premier League loss since arriving in November.
NOTTINGHAM FOREST TO WIN
