Manchester United will be hosting Newcastle United in the
early kick-off on Saturday. Manchester United has had a good start this season,
winning both their first games; however, Louis Van Gaal will be looking at
stepping up the results by getting more goals against Newcastle. Newcastle on
the other hand is working at rebuilding their team back to the topflight team
they used to be; unless Steve McLaren can get his Newcastle side to shut out
United, which looks unlikely this match is possibly a Manchester United
victory.
Leicester are the surprise early high-flyers in the Premier
League, sitting with the two Manchester clubs and Liverpool at the top of the
table after carrying the form of last season's incredible finish into the new
campaign. Tottenham in order to prove that they are among the top six teams in
the English Premier League will be looking to burst Leicester's bubble, or at
least of deflate it somewhat, because they are one of the most effective away
teams in the Premier League against sides below the big six.
Southampton is far from a busted flush but their form is
nowhere near the level of 12 months ago and they look a risk at Watford on
Saturday. They have drawn with Newcastle and 3-0 lost at home to Everton this
season. Watford have opened with two draws but they have shown enough in both
matches to suggest they can compete in the Premier League; consequently, this
looks a good time for them to play Southampton, bearing in the mind that
Southampton will be coming off a Europa league tie on Thursday 20 August 2015.
Arsenal versus Liverpool, the star match of the week;
Liverpool will be travelling to the Emirates to continue with their good form against
Arsenal. Having won their first two matches, they will be looking to sustain
the tempo by defeating Arsenal away; however, Arsenal will be putting up a
strong tactics to defend and attack a formidable team like Liverpool.
Head-to-head last season, Arsenal had a better outing against Liverpool, but
with the major signings by Liverpool, we expecting nothing less than attacking
football.
Everton versus Manchester City, a tricky match; Everton will
welcome Manchester City to the Stanley park in Liverpool. Both teams are in
spectacular form, Everton pickup an away win at Southampton last weekend and
Manchester City belittled Jose Mourinho and Chelsea with a 3-0 win. Prior to
Pellegrini reign as coach of the Manchester City, Everton always had an upper
hand against City. How will it play out on Sunday? We will have to be at
Stanley Park or keep our eyes glued to our television set.
Jose Mourinho will be looking to restore their lost confidence against West Bromwich Albion on Sunday. With the relegation of the first team physiotherapist and medical doctor, it seems Jose Mourinho will look for another reason to base his tam's lackluster performance on.
West Brom on the other hand are yet to win a game in the league this season, they will be hoping that they will repeat their last victory against Chelsea last season on the same turf.
