Arsenal make the trip to face Newcastle this weekend in the early kick-off. After being pegged back twice last week at home to Liverpool in that enthralling 2-2 draw, the Gunners will be keen to get back to winnings ways, especially with a trip to Tyneside on the cards.
With Captain Martin Odegaard set to make a long-anticipated return to the action, I see the Arsenal collecting maximum points. Bukayo Saka has been in devastating form.
The home team has had a stop-start to the season, with Eddie Howe looking to change up his playing style and play out from the back more in the Premier League.
Back Arsenal to get the win here in the Premier League!
Manchester United welcome high-flying Chelsea to Old Trafford in what is the pick of the weekend’s fixtures. The Red Devils have appointed Ruben Almiron as the Portuguese tactician swaps the Primera for the Premier League.
Known for this strict tactical plans and playing with a back 3, it is going to be an adjustment for the United players. The structure will help United be more compact and concede less goals for sure, but the adjustment period is going to key. Can they seamlessly transition into a back three outfit? Do they have the current profiles in the team to do so? Do elite teams even play in this manner? Questions we need to ask.
The Blues on the other hand look a shadow of the pushovers they were over the last two seasons. Maintaining a top four spot in the Premier League 9 games in and playing some really good football in the process.
In Cole Palmer they have an attacking midfielder who has tons of goals in him. Nicholas Jackson is also acclimatizing to the Premier League really well!
Back the draw here. With United and their new manager bounce, and the tie being at home, I feel they just get something from the game.
