However, Emile Heskey is now thinking Newcastle United will end up in the Premier League top four.

He sees Chelsea, of the four he originally predicted, as the most likely to make way for United.

Chelsea have picked up only two points from their last possible twelve, whilst Eddie Howe’s side have won their most recent seven games in all competitions, including picking up fifteen points from the last possible fifteen in the Premier League.

United defeating Villa (home), Man U (away) and Spurs (away) in their last three Premier League matches, Newcastle now only one point behind Chelsea who are fourth.

Emile Heskey talking to Instant Casino about who he thinks will finish in the Premier League top four:

“At the beginning of the season, I said Liverpool, Man City, Arsenal and Chelsea.

“OK. I will throw a spanner in the works.

“Forest are going fantastic but how long will that go on for? It looks like another Leicester-City-win-the-league kind of thing.

“I think Newcastle United will sneak in somewhere.

“I do like the way they play; I do like Isak.

“I do like how strong they are, how powerful they are.

“If one of them was to drop out of the top four, it would be Chelsea. I just think the unfamiliarity of a manager knowing how to get them over the line, and the consistency to have to get them over the line, I think that will be their undoing, if anything.

“Forest have been outstanding. I think Nuno’s done brilliantly, but I think that’s the peak for them. I can’t see them staying up there and being in the top four in May. To be fair, it’s been a fantastic ride for them.”
