Premier League Week 14 Predictions: Highlighting Most Thrilling Matchups

Regarded by many as the most entertaining league in the world for a reason, it's not just the Premier League's big guns that are capable of putting on an extravaganza for spectators, as Week 14 shows perfectly.

With not much in terms of "blockbuster billing" between the division's top six, it's instead a chance for the league's smaller powers to show their worth against one another.

However, that doesn't make for any less of an occasion and, as ever, it's only right that we attempt to predict how matters will proceed in the midweek meetings.

Manchester United vs. Everton

The first league meeting of David Moyes' Manchester United career against his former side, Wednesday evening provides the Red Devils with a veritable six-pointer in what's bound to be a tense atmosphere.

United have had a roller coaster of results in the past week, but a win over the Toffees, a side who have proven to be somewhat of a bogey team in the past, could put them back in the top four.

Surprisingly, United have actually had a better scoring ratio away from home than they have at Old Trafford this season, while defending has been more fruitful in front of a home crowd.

In all honesty, this midweek meeting could go either way between the two, who have a lot at stake and are more closely pitched alongside one another than many would have predicted for this stage of the season.

Prediction: Manchester United 2-2 Everton

Southampton vs. Aston Villa

Two sides capable of playing fast and free-flowing, attractive football on their day, Southampton and Aston Villa could either sink or swim in terms of entertainment at St. Mary's this week.

The Saints' home defence has been near impenetrable this season, Mauricio Pochettino's side conceding an average of just 0.33 goals per game this term.

Providing that kind of performance can be maintained, the Villans, having gone goalless in five of their last seven matches, won't stand a chance.

Prediction: Southampton 3-1 Aston Villa

Swansea City vs. Newcastle United

After a worrying start to the campaign, Newcastle United have recovered tremendously and now find themselves back in the mix for a European spot finish.

The Magpies' recent form has been nothing short of impressive and with four wins on the trot, will be giving the Swans something to be concerned about at the Liberty Stadium. 

Under Michael Laudrup, Swansea aren't the same defensive unit they once were when playing at home and actually have one of the worst home defensive records in the English top flight at the moment.

All attack and no defence does make for an attractive proposition as far as the neutral is concerned, however, making a high-scoring draw a firm possibility.

Prediction: Swansea City 2-2 Newcastle United
