⚪️ Leeds vs West Ham ⚒️ A short turnaround might not be the worst thing for the Hammers. They were awful against Brentford on Monday night - I think not starting Fernandes and Magassa in midfield was a big reason for this. They simply don't have enough legs in midfield without

🔵 Chelsea vs Sunderland 🐈‍⬛ It's fair to expect we see a more typical Chelsea line-up in this game. Enzo and Caicedo will, most likely, both start and we may see Guiu lead the line with Joao Pedro in behind him. Sunderland have started the season well but their game at Old

⚫️ Newcastle vs Fulham ⚪️ Newcastle started off very poorly against Brighton. They struggled to play through BHA's high press (Image 1) and didn't take advantage of opportunities to transition. I thought they lacked technical quality in the final third. They did grow into the

👹 Manchester United vs Brighton 🕊️ Manchester United are coming off a big win against Liverpool but Brighton will not make life easy! Brighton will press United very high (Image 1) and won't let them breathe. The key for United is to minimise errors when playing out from the

🐝 Brentford vs Liverpool 🔴 Liverpool look awful this season. I think the big issue is that Slot hasn't made any tweaks to the system in order to replace Trent's connection with Salah. Trent could find long balls into Salah from very deep positions so Salah was always a

🔴 Arsenal vs Crystal Palace 🦅 What a game this is going to be! We know Palace's 5-4-1 is solid (Image 1) and I'm expecting them to make life very difficult for Arsenal. If Arsenal can get Palace to engage in an open game, I think they can win comfortably, but I think

🥷 Aston Villa vs Manchester City 🔵 Spurs caused Villa some issues with their aggressive high press (Image 1) and I expect City to do something similar. Villa have looked a lot more dynamic with Malen in the side, especially when he plays with Watkins. If they both start, I

🐝 Bournemouth vs Nottingham Forest 🌳 Sean Dyche will most likely make Forest a lot more solid than they were under Ange but it's hard to know how long it will take him to get the side ticking again. Bournemouth will press high (Image 1) and try to draw Forest into a chaotic

🐺 Wolves vs Burnley 🍷 I think Burnley were fortunate to pick up 3 points against Leeds. Leeds dominated the game and a better side probably would've punished Parker's side. Burnley have shown they can be played through in recent weeks (Image 1) but I'm not sure if Wolves can

🍬 Everton vs Spurs ⚪️ I think this should be a very interesting game! IMO, Spurs' big issue this season has been struggling to break teams down. They don't look threatening enough when a team is in their low block (Frank is still new so this is to be expected). We know
