£1m Super 6 predictions: Big wins for Newcastle and Bournemouth

With a whopping £1m Super 6 jackpot up for grabs, Jeff Stelling is on hand with his expert advice ahead of Saturday's Premier League action.

This week the Soccer Saturday host is backing Newcastle to upset Leicester and Bournemouth to increase the pressure on Swansea's Garry Monk with victory at the Liberty Stadium.

Most popular prediction: Chelsea 2-0 Norwich (38 per cent)

JEFF SAYS: I'm not sure that the 38 per cent have been watching Chelsea for the last few weeks. I'm getting fed-up of waiting for them to turn the corner but they keep stumbling along. Norwich won last week but have struggled. I do think they will score at Stamford Bridge but I'm going with a 2-1 home win.

Jeff predicts: Chelsea 2-1 Norwich

Most popular prediction:  Everton 2-0 Aston Villa (30 per cent)

JEFF SAYS: Well there's one thing I agree with and that's the nil for Villa. Remi Garde's first game in charge, a goalless draw against Manchester City, must be regarded as a triumph but while it was a valuable point it didn't tell the whole story. Villa didn't have a shot on target in the match and face an Everton side who scored six in their last home match against Sunderland.

Jeff predicts: Everton 3-0 Aston Villa

Most popular prediction:  Newcastle 1-2 Leicester City (32 per cent)

JEFF SAYS: I can understand their thinking. The big question is the fitness of Jamie Vardy. If Claudio Ranieri has any doubts over the England man will he risk him or will he start on the bench? Newcastle historically have a great record against Leicester in the league, winning 14 of the last 16, including the last five on the bounce. I get the feeling Newcastle are turning the corner under Steve McClaren. They've kept consecutive cleans sheets and that's why I'm going for a Newcastle win.

Jeff predicts: Newcastle 1-0 Leicester City 

Most popular prediction:  Southampton 2-1 Stoke (27 per cent) 

JEFF SAYS: Southampton will win this one. They have a good record in this fixture and are in great form, scoring two in each of their last six games at St Mary's. Stoke are a much better side defensively with Ryan Shawcross in the team and have kept three clean sheets in their last three away from home but have never kept four. Graziano Pelle is one of the players of the season for me so I'm going for a 2-0 home win.

Jeff predicts: Southampton 2-0 Stoke

Most popular prediction: Swansea 2-0 Bournemouth (20 per cent)

JEFF SAYS: This is a difficult one to call. Both teams are struggling for form - it could come down to the toss of a coin. Bafetimbi Gomis and Andre Ayew have scored 75 per cent of Swansea's goals but both have gone off the boil, while injuries have cost Bournemouth, who have now lost their last four. Eddie Howe will have targeted this as one his side need to win and I think they will.

Jeff predicts: Swansea 1-2 Bournemouth 

Most popular prediction: West Brom 0-2 Arsenal (25 per cent)

JEFF SAYS: Arsenal were terrible against Spurs but could have sneaked it in the end. They have a great record at The Hawthorns with only one defeat in 22 meetings and it's difficult not to see them extending that record on Saturday. West Brom's home form will be a concern for Tony Pulis and when the onus is on them to attack they tend to struggle. I honestly can't see them scoring and that's why I'm going for a comfortable Arsenal win.

Jeff predicts: West Brom 0-3 Arsenal
