Premier League, top-ranked City visits Bournemouth while Liverpool hosts Brighton at Anfield Road just days after the League Cup challenge.
In the last round, Manchester City, as predicted, took advantage of the draw between Arsenal and Liverpool to take back the top spot. Pep Guardiola’s Cityzens only needed a goal from their slinger Haaland (already 11 goals in this Premier League) to settle the Southampton file (1-0), recording their third consecutive league victory.
Now ahead of everyone are the English champions, who are also taking advantage of a not-impossible schedule that on this day will put them in front of another team whose goal is to win salvation early: Bournemouth. Andoni Iraola’s Cherries are actually going beyond expectations: the latest results show this, such as the victory over Arsenal at the Vitality Stadium or the draw at home to the fearsome Aston Villa.
In short, not a very easy competition for Manchester City, even though the Catalan coach rested almost all the starters in the League Cup during the week, surrendering 2-1 to Tottenham and exiting the less important and emblazoned cup without regrets. The preconditions for an eventful match are all there, and it cannot be ruled out that the hosts will also manage to find the way of the goal. Liverpool, engaged at Anfield Road with Brighton, should also get the 3 points. Two teams that, on opposite pitches, have just played each other in the League Cup, with the Reds coming out on top at the end of a pyrotechnic 2-3: again, there should be no shortage of goals, also considering the offensive mentality of Hurzeler, coach of the Seagulls.
The predictions on the other matches
Between the matches scheduled for Saturday afternoon is also the salvation clash between Ipswich Town and Leicester, both of which come from the Championship, England’s cadet league. Those who have done better so far have been the Foxes, currently on 9 points, five more than the Tractor Boys.
Leicester in our opinion should be able to avoid defeat but is unlikely to keep the goal inviolate against a team that last Sunday, while losing, was able to score 3 goals on Brentford’s defense (4-3): we predict at least one goal on each side. The same goes for the other salvation clash between Southampton and Everton: the Saints are last in the standings-only one point won in 9 days-while the Toffees, after a disastrous start, have recovered. We close with Nottingham Forest-West Ham: the Reds’ excellent moment – two wins in a row against Leicester and Palace – leads us to give confidence to Nuno Espirito Santo’s team.
