Currently at 4^th place in the table to Aston Villa’s 9^th, Chelsea are tipped to win Sunday’s match at Stamford Bridge.   

As favourites, Chelsea are denoted by the 1^st house, Mars (1^st house ruler) and Saturn (ruler of the 10^th house; the house of victory for the favourites). 

Aston Villa are represented by Venus (ruler of the 7^th house).  They have no other significators in this match, as the Moon, (ruler of the 4^th house, the house of victory for the underdogs), already has a key role describing the events of the match.  

As the game takes place around the time of the New Moon, the Part of Fortune is in the 1^st house.  This might seem fortunate for the favourites; but the placement of the Part of Fortune is linked to the Moon’s current phase and always occupies the 1^st house at the New Moon. Observation shows that wins for the favourites do not always correlate with a New Moon, so the Part of Fortune’s placement by antiscion (which varies from month to month as the New Moon changes sign) is considered more significant in contest charts than her bodily placement.   

The North Node is close to the cusp of the 1^st house but, once again, this is not quite as favourable for the favourites as it might appear.  In his book “Sports Astrology”, John Frawley notes that a team’s planet falling on a Node will be helped or harmed, but that the house placements of the Nodes do not seem significant. 

The Moon’s aspects describe how events will unfold and often (as in this case), hold the key to the result:  She applies first to a sextile with the antiscion of Saturn (at 17 Libra 05) which is positive for favourites Chelsea.   

The Moon next applies to a square with the antiscion of the Part of Fortune at 18 Virgo 52.  This is just beyond the 5-degree orb of aspect considered most reliable for a 90-minute football match and suggests that underdogs Aston Villa will have an opportunity to change their fortunes in the latter stages of the game.   

Verdict: Chelsea will dominate the match, but Aston Villa will have at least one chance to turn the tables on their adversaries.  The last few minutes of the game are likely to prove crucial.

This match promises some dramatic moments, as both sides are currently vying for promotion.  

Home team Port Vale are the favourites:  They are represented by the Sun, ruler of the 1^st house and Mars, ruler of the 10^th house; the house of victory for the favourites.   

Rivals Crewe have Saturn, ruler of the opposing 7^th house as their main significator, with Venus (ruler of the 4^th house) as their co-significator. 

The Moon’s applying aspects show how the events of the match will unfold.  The first aspect the Moon makes (over the 5-degree orb considered most effective in a 90-minute football game) is a sextile to the Sun (ruler of the 1^st house).  She next applies to sextile Mars (ruler of the 10^th house).  Both these aspects favour the favourites, Port Vale.   

However, the placement of the Moon (just inside the 4^th house cusp) is a big boost to the fortunes of the underdogs, Crewe.   

Port Vale have won their last three games against Crewe, but the heavens suggest that this match will be closely fought, with the outcome much less certain.  

Crewe will prove strong opposition, but Moon’s aspects incline to a win for favourites Port Vale.

Lincoln’s average form has been consistently reliable this season:  At the time of writing, they are placed 5^th in the table.   

Home side Exeter are 11^th in the table to Lincoln’s 5^th place but have played one less game this season. Their current form suggests they too are not to be underestimated.

The odds are almost equally split between both teams, with (at the time of writing) a slight bias in favour of Exeter for the win.

As favourites, Exeter are represented by Saturn, traditional ruler of rising sign Aquarius.  Jupiter, ruler of the 10^th house (the house of victory for the favourites) is their co-significator.  

The Sun, ruler of Leo and the opposing 7^th house, is main significator for visitors Lincoln.  They are co-signified by Mercury, ruler of the 4^th house.   

Pluto (who often appears to have a grudge against the favourites), hovers above the 1^st house cusp. Fortunately for Exeter, Pluto is in Capricorn, not Aquarius, so they escape Pluto’s malevolent influence.   

As ruler of the 7^th house, the Sun is the main significator of Lincoln’s hopes for victory.  At 05 Aquarius 22, the antiscion (or shadow-placement) of the Sun is placed in the 1^st house, under the influence of Exeter. This would be a strong testimony against Lincoln if the Sun were closer to the 1^st house cusp (within 1-3 degrees) but, beyond this limit, is too weak to prove a severe affliction.   

The Part of Fortune (at 10 Leo 23) is in the 7^th house; the house of Lincoln.  However, for this to prove positive for the underdogs, the Part of Fortune would need to be much nearer to the 7^th house cusp:  At nearly 9 degrees distant, this testimony is too weak to signify.   

The Moon makes no aspects to either team’s planets over the 5-degree orb considered most effective for a 90-minute football match.  However, her placement, close to the cusp of the 4^th house (the house of victory for the underdogs) is very favourable for Lincoln:  This testimony may be sufficient to decide the match in their favour.   

Overall, this chart describes another closely-fought match, but inclines to favour the underdogs.  The odds for each team are close, but if the majority of the pundits are correct in naming Exeter as the favourites, the heavens suggest that Lincoln may carry the day.

The odds for Sunday afternoon’s match are almost too close to call, with the pundits divided on which team are the true favourites.  If each team plays to their strengths, there is definite potential for a draw:  Let us look at what the heavens say.  

This is not a clear chart to judge.  Not only is the favourite team a matter of dispute, but there are a host of conflicting testimonies which suggest this match will be very evenly matched.  Nevertheless, there is much of astrological interest here.   

Commanding attention at the top of the chart, Pluto lurks very close to the cusp of the 10^th house (the house of victory for the favourites).  Close orbs of aspect (2 degrees or less) are most reliable in contest charts.  Here, Pluto is just over 4 degrees into the 10^th house, greatly mitigating his baleful influence. Nevertheless, this is a warning that the favourites will find this match more challenging than expected.   

Pluto is also closely conjunct the antiscion of Mercury, dispositor of the Part of Fortune, at 29 Capricorn 34, highlighting his importance to the outcome of the match.   

At the time of writing, Chelsea are one place higher in the table than rivals Arsenal.  They are also the hosts, which is often believed to confer the advantage of home crowd support.  If Chelsea are the true favourites, they are represented by Venus (lord of the 1^st house) and Saturn (ruler of the 10^th house).   

Their rivals, Arsenal, are signified by just one planet:  Mars, ruler of the opposing 7^th house.  This is because the ruler of the 4^th house (the house of victory for the underdogs) is the Moon who already has a key role describing, through her aspects, the key events of the match.   

There is an applying aspect between the Part of Fortune and her dispositor Mercury. This favours the underdogs.   

The Moon first applies to square Mercury, but her next aspect is a conjunction to retrograde Saturn, ruler of the 10^th house, favouring the favourites.  This aspect is slightly over the 5-degree orb considered the limit of effectiveness for the Moon’s aspects in 90-minute football games, suggesting that the chances for the favourites will be best in the closing stages of the match, especially if the game strays into extra time.   

Overall, the testimonies of this chart are fairly balanced:  The heavens agree that a draw is not out of the question, but a crucial opportunity will occur for the favourites should the match run into extra time.   

If Chelsea are truly the favourites (and many pundits would contest this), extra time will work in their favour.  Otherwise, Pluto may prove a star player for underdogs Arsenal.

Although Brentford are one point above Fulham in the table, Fulham have been playing particularly well on home ground, earning them the accolade of favourites for this Monday’s match. 

As favourites, they are designated the 1^st house but as the Moon (1^st house ruler) already has an important role describing the events of the match, her dispositor Jupiter steps in as Fulham’s main planet in this chart. Jupiter also rules the 10^th house (the house of victory for the favourites), so he is their sole significator in this game.   

Saturn, ruler of the opposing 7^th house, and Mercury ruler of the 4^th house, represent rivals Brentford.

The Moon immediately applies to oppose Jupiter.  This is the only aspect the Moon makes over the 5-degree orb considered most reliable for 90-minute football matches. Despite the challenging nature of the opposition aspect, it is highly positive for Fulham.   

Saturn (for Brentford) is closely conjunct the cusp of the 10^th house, the house of victory.  Due to Saturn’s retrograde motion, this aspect is separating and not nearly as reliably positive for Brentford as if the aspect were applying to the house cusp.  Nevertheless, Saturn’s nearness to the 10^th house cusp is a sign to expect a closely fought match: A draw is far from out of the question.  Fulham have a slight edge, but Brentford can be counted on to make things as difficult as possible for the favourites.

As favourites, Arsenal are signified by Venus, ruler of the 1^st house, and Saturn, ruler of the 10^th house (the house of victory for the favourites). 

Mars, ruler of the opposing 7^th house, is sole representative for rivals Liverpool.  The Moon, as ruler of the 4^th house, would have been their co-significator. However, she already has a key role describing the progress of the match. 

In his book “Sports Astrology” John Frawley observes that, in the judgement of contest charts, the Moon’s aspects probably indicate the outcome of more matches than any other testimonies:  Here, the Moon immediately applies to oppose a retrograde Saturn.  Despite the challenging nature of the opposition aspect, this is a powerful testimony for favourites Arsenal.   

Saturn is also conjunct the Part of Fortune, but the aspect is separating and also not quite close enough:  A conjunction within orb of 2-3 degrees might lend further support to Arsenal’s cause.

However, for all practical purposes (and in the absence of any testimonies favouring Liverpool), the applying opposition between the Moon and Saturn should be sufficient to prove the bookies correct and herald a win for Arsenal.

Manchester City are hotly tipped to win Sunday’s match against hosts Wolves.  As favourites, they are signified by Saturn (ruler of the 1^st house) and Mars, ruler of the 10^th house (the house of victory for the favourites). 

Although they have the home advantage, Wolves are not the favourites, so are signified by the opposing 7^th house.   

The Moon, ruler of the 7^th house, already has an important role describing how the events of the match will unfold.  As the Moon is in Gemini, her dispositor is Mercury, who steps in as main significator for Wolves.  Venus, ruler of the 4^th house (the house of victory for the underdogs), is their co-significator.  

The Moon applies to a square with Saturn.  This is the only testimony of note in the chart, and it favours Manchester City.  The challenging nature of the square aspect and the retrograde motion of Saturn make no difference to the meaning of this testimony – it remains highly positive for the favourites  

Mercury, for Wolves, applies to conjunct the cusp of the 10^th house, but is not close enough (an orb of 1-2 degrees is the maximum in contest charts) to present a serious challenge to Manchester City’s hopes for victory:  A win for the favourites seems the most likely outcome.

Astrological football forecasts for the Premier League will return after the International Break – watch this space!

At the time of writing, Tottenham are just one place and point in the table ahead of hosts Brighton. Nevertheless, the pundits seem confident in their expectation of victory for Spurs. 

As favourites, Spurs are awarded the 1^st house and its ruler, Saturn (the traditional ruler of Aquarius).  They have Jupiter (the ruler of the 10^th house, the house of victory for the favourites) as their co-significator.   

The Sun, ruler of the opposing 7^th house, represent Brighton.  Mercury, ruler of the 4^th house, is their co-significator.   

However, none of these planets play a major role in the contest chart for this match.  Instead, the Moon’s applying trine to the Part of Fortune (at 26 Pisces 22), is most likely to decide the result in favour of the favourites, Tottenham.

Currently placed at number 3 in the table (opponents Ipswich are 17^th), Aston Villa are considered favourites to win Sunday’s match.   

As favourites, Aston Villa are signified by Jupiter, lord of the 1^st house, and Venus, lord of the 10^th house (the house of victory for the favourites).   

Hosts Ipswich Town are represented by Mercury (lord of the opposing 7^th house) and Mars, lord of the 4^th house.   

Mercury (Ipswich) is severely weakened by his approaching conjunction with the South Node, and combustion with the Sun.  These are challenging testimonies, which work powerfully against Ipswich.   

Jupiter (lord of the 1^st house, for Aston Villa) sits on the cusp of the 7^th house, dominating the fortunes of their rivals.  

The Moon, whose aspects often determine the events of the match, has little to do in this game:  She makes no aspects to significant planets over the 5-degree orb usually considered most effective for a 90-minute football match.  Her next aspect, at just over 6 degrees, is a sextile to Venus (lord of the 10th house), which again favours Aston Villa.   

However, it is the debility of Mercury (combust and applying to conjunct the South Node) and the placement of Jupiter (on the 7^th house cusp) which play decisive roles in this chart, which inclines towards a win for Aston Villa.
