๐ŸŒณ Nottingham Forest vs Chelsea ๐Ÿ”ต Ange has not impressed so far. Forest are clearly weaker defensively and haven't shown any clear improvements in attack. They played a back 5 against Newcastle (Image 1) which made them harder to break down but, ultimately, they were still

๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ Brighton vs Newcastle โšซ๏ธ Brighton have looked promising at times this season but their attack hasn't quite clicked yet. Minteh has been a bright spark but no one else has produced consistent end product. We know that Brighton come alive against stronger sides and we may see

๐Ÿท Burnley vs Leeds United โšช๏ธ Burnley were very poor against Villa. They were easy to play through and Villa exploited their high line (Image 1). On the other hand, Leeds were very good against Spurs. They pressed well, were tidy on the ball and didn't allow Spurs to dominate

๐Ÿฆ… Crystal Palace vs Bournemouth ๐Ÿ This will be a fascinating tactical matchup! Bournemouth have the best press in the league whilst Palace's 5-4-1 (Image 1) is so tough to break down. The Cherries have struggled to break low blocks down this season (quiet against Fulham until

๐Ÿ”ต Manchester City vs Everton ๐Ÿฌ Everton will be without Grealish, which is a big miss in a game like this. Against Liverpool, Grealish was a constant outlet. His dribbling slowed the game down and got Everton up the pitch. However, Ndiaye and Dibling can offer similar

๐Ÿˆโ€โฌ› Sunderland vs Wolves ๐Ÿบ Sunderland were cut open very easily against Manchester United (see image - Mount free on the edge of the box). This gave us a better idea of how good Sunderland's defence is - fairly solid but not at the level of an Everton or Crystal Palace. Wolves

โšช๏ธ Fulham vs Arsenal ๐Ÿ”ด Fulham have looked very solid in their back 5 (Image 1) and have been unlucky not to pick up more points so far this season (eg. Bournemouth and Chelsea games). Arsenal looked very strong against West Ham, especially when Eze and Odegaard were playing

โšช๏ธ Spurs vs Aston Villa ๐Ÿฅท Spurs were very fortunate to win at Elland Road in GW7. They were outplayed, struggled to create chances and were massively aided by deflections for both of their goals. Villa have improved in the last few weeks but I still don't think we've seen them

๐Ÿ”ด Liverpool vs Manchester United ๐Ÿ‘น A lot of people seem to think Liverpool will smash United but I'm not so sure. Liverpool haven't shown any effective attacking dynamics recently. We saw some nice RHS overloads against Everton (Image 1) but we haven't seen this since. I

โš’๏ธ West Ham vs Brentford ๐Ÿ Arsenal opened West Ham up multiple times in the first half (see image) but West Ham improved in the second half. There has been talk of Nuno potentially switching to a 3-4-3 (currently playing a 4-5-1) which could potentially make them more
