Looking at what happened to Monaco last season they were always in trouble at the end of the season and now if in the end they want to try better then they should be able to be able to maintain more consistency so that good performance at the beginning of the season does not end in vain at the end of the season for them.
As for Nice, it is still difficult to guess because after all they are the same as Lens last season so the possibility is that if they perform the same as this time then the chance is very large for them to be in the Champions League or Europa League zone but if they return to poor performance after good performance so far then the possibility of them being thrown is also very large.
This week the performance of Nice and Monaco is still very good only this is also still not a guarantee whether they will remain like this or not.
I agree because after all Monaco at the beginning of the season they are always good but when the midseason towards the end of the season sometimes they are always very trouble in maintaining the performance that requires them to currently be able to improve evenmore in order to make a difference. As for Nice at the moment it depends on their efforts. If in the end they can do their best until the end then inded they can achieve positive results even though it is only temporary in this season but I think it is good but indeed until now they  continuw to give positive performances so I still hope a lot for them this season. 

Monaco's issue is always the quality of their squad depth. They can maintain their form when they have injuries and pressure throughout the season running after a good start. Monaco see themself as a big club in ligue 1, but their management and preparation are not getting better all this time. They often have good income in transfer window, they rarely invest it well.

Nice are really having an impressive start this season which is so unexpected. eventhough many people think they wont be able to maintain this form for so long, This already gives them confidence that they can compete at the top if they dont have unexpected problem.

Chris Nkumku will return from his knee injury in the second week of November and start playing for the Chelsea squad in the same manner that he did in the team's preseason games.
For the Start, Nkunku and Jackson will be playing separately in  matches until the best-performed player takes the front position.
Pochettino has plenty of work to do in utilizing the Chelsea player in terms of finishing and their defense to achieve the goal of reaching the top 4 spot this season

Pochettino really needs alot of work to do and moreover they need new signings let them sign tactical players that will be good in finishing and their defense needs to perform better, most of their matches they either concede early goals or their goals are being equalized so it is the porosity of the defense that is responsible for that so the need more improvement in their defense.

Chris Nkunku returning from injury may not make any difference to the team if they continue with the pattern they've been playing with. Nkunku performance in the preseason may not be as easy in the premier league because most teams doesn't even take preseason seriously as most teams doesn't play their league with same pattern they play in preseason but whichever way it is we hope he brings his best as he's returning from injury.

Chelsea are building or finding a character of the team, so I dont think new signing is the solution for Mauricio Pochettino right now. without solidity, adding more new players could mess up the compactness which is already built. before they sign new players, they need to improve, build a character as a team and maintain the progression. that's the only right way for now, unless they would start rebuilding from basic again.

all the players in the squad more or less are a level in quality, it's a matter of gametimes for them to improve their quality and chemistry in the team which are starting to progress and getting results. Chelsea will be top competitor again if this plan of rebuilding is not having setback, and adding new players will be inevitability needed.

Real madrid didn't have someone like him at this moment but the club is still able performing better like when benzema was there. There is no a lot of change even when the club without him. Some players are capable enough in scoring so many goals like bellingham.
The only last piece to complete the puzzle of real is having a great striker who can perform as good as benzema. Real madrid will become unbeaten team with a great striker like benzema.
If Real Madrid continues to chase players like Benzema forever, they will not be able to make it happen. I know people still haven't moved on from Benzema, but demanding that clubs look for someone with those exact abilities is not realistic. Like it or not, Madrid must develop whether or not a figure like Benzema exists.

It would be strange to have to look for the exact player Benzema is and reject other players with different abilities. I mean put aside demanding that Madrid look for a player with Benzema's qualities, and provide opportunities for different striker playing styles so that the attack system will adapt. Each player has different characteristics and abilities, so it's better to stop making these demands and take a look at the strikers that Madrid will bring in next season.

totally agree..
chasing the same profile like Benzema is almost impossible. I think that's not what Real Madrid are doing. They need new striker, but whatever profile of a player/striker they sign will need to be fit to their system, no need to be the same like Benzema. Ancelotti knows this very well.

Osimhen is the only hot target for any club in europe who desperate for a striker right now. he's more likely to leave his club in winter or next summer window. if madrid come for him, they will get him, but the thing for Ancelotti is that whether he's fit to Madrid's system or not.

Some of the matches last night are over, what surprised us was that Barcelona lost away against Shakhtar Donetsk actually this is not a surprise anymore in UCL matches because anything can happen, we only see from the statistical opportunities Barcelona is bigger but the reality is never imagined.

Next up is tonight's match, but I'm keeping my eye on Copenhagen Vs Manchester United - here we understand how Erik Ten Hag's team still find it very difficult to perform consistently well sometimes they lose to lowly teams from the domestic league and UCL, if they win they clearly have a chance to take second place because it is certain in my guess that Galatasaray will lose to Bayern Munich, maybe we will see that Manchester United can secure their points tonight.

The Barcelona's loss to Shakhtar Donetsk didn't surprise me at all, because Spanish teams have not too good records against Shakhtar Donetsk away, including Real Madrid, and Barca's form lately are a bit erratic as we can see in their last la liga games where they struggled to win and Shakhtar Donetsk home is never an easy game for any team.

and tonight Manchester United will play their deciding game. if they win they open a chance to qualify for R16, if They lose, it's over for them. This puts big pressure on Then Hag and the players. all individuals in Manchester United realize this and they need to give their best if they don't want to invite more pressure for the rest of the season.

Leverkusen will gets easy match on week 11 Union Berlin and this season was very special for Union Berlin because finally they can able to playing at Champion league but i don't know why since Union Berlin playing at that competition they were unable to performing well for each matches and at Bundesliga Union Berlin last win was happened on August and since that month Union Berlin always be lose on champion league, DFB pokal and Bundesliga even against weak teams such as Heidenheim or Darmstadt they have to lose and in the last 5 matches in all competitions Union Berlin has poor records because they were unable to scores so these records makes me sure Leverkusen will be able to resumes their winning streak and possibly win with big scores from Union Berlin

Union Berlin messed up their strategy of recruitment. They signed well-known names as their preparation of their champions League campaign which is not their usual recruitment strategy. This affects the squad's mentality, especially players who fought for Champions League spot last season. the desire of some players to play for the club decrease significantly as we can see the games they are starting lost the scheme of the play and compactness.

on the other hand, Leverkusen are on fire. Xabi Alonso is able to maintain his team's form very well. Leverkusen in the last two season play an attractive football due to tactics and team setup by Alonso that gets much appreciated many football experts.
I think Leverkusen will win comfortably since they are well-prepared and in-form.

Milan finally gets their first win yesterday from PSG and this is important winning because they just open their chances to qualified i think this is one of Milan best performance during group stage because although Milan was playing more defense because the pressure from PSG but Milan can able to managed their defense until match ended and other match from group F Dortmund can able to overtake first position from PSG after beat Newcastle with scores 2-0 and group F was hard to predicted because after Milan won from PSG there was no teams in this group who had safe position this because the difference points between the teams in this group was not too far and i think possibly the teams who qualified will be determined at the end of matches group

The Milan's win against makes group F more interesting and exciting. Now every club in the group have chance to qualify for Round of 16. there is no favorite who will pass the group at the moment. Dortmund are the most stable team out of four that makes me think they will top the group in the end. Newcastle are in a good form this season, but I have a doubt that they will qualify for Round of 16 because this is the first season they participate in Champions League after a very long time that makes them not quite ready with the atmosphere and pressure in the competition.

every game in this group is a game to watch. not just those would be good games, but also every game is a must win game for every team if they want they want to guarantee a spot in round of 16 because this group is the toughest group in champions league this season.

Jadon Sancho could leave the team during the summer but sadly this drama happened in the first weeks of this season which means, this player should wait for a longer time and see if there is going to be any offer for him in the next transfer window. I think it's better for Ten Hag to use this player if he can have any benefits for the team because Manchester United is currently in a bad situation.

It is difficult to keep him even though Jadon Sancho has made quite a good contribution at Manchester United but the problem is that both parties Erik Ten Hag and Jadon Sancho cannot forgive each other so it is difficult to accept that this player should stay while I remember that it was rumored that Jadon Sancho wants to leave Manchester United immediately and regarding other clubs who will sign him, it seems that many big clubs will offer cooperation with the player, even clubs from Saudi Arabia want this player to go to Saudi Arabia.

it seems Ten Hag and Manchester United already have conclusion to sell Jadon Sancho remembering current situation in the squad. the thing is that hard to find a club to buy Sancho due to his price, wage and attitude. for the move is possible to happen, Sancho needs accept a much lower wage and Manchester United need to accept a much lower transfer fee.

other than saudi clubs, I think a club who are willing to sign sancho are Juventus, because right now they need a quality young forward and they are in a transition of rebuilding a good team to compete at a highest level again.

Real Madrid attacked a lot but could not find any success. In particular, Real Madrid shot 22 total balls towards the goal post and Rayo shot 4 balls. In particular, I think Real Madrid have had this problem due to the absence of experienced strikers. And Real Madrid had the ball for most of the game but could not capitalize on it. And it was Real Madrid's failure to find scoring opportunities despite repeated corner kicks.
Real Madrid played much more dominatingly, but the problem was that they had difficulty finding gaps in scoring goals and were still unable to take advantage of a number of opportunities as final solutions well, so they couldn't score a single goal in the match. The striker was a problem in this match because Joselu was not able to show the good performance that Ancelotti expected and I agree that Real Madrid needs a pure striker who has a much better goal scoring instinct than Joselu.

Playing a draw at the Santiago Bernabeu was a big loss for Real Madrid because it gave Girona the opportunity to be in first place with a difference of two points. Rayo Vallecano's defense was very stable in this match and they managed to thwart a number of opportunities that Real Madrid had. The following week Real Madrid will face Valencia and this must be a special concern on the front lines for Ancelotti.

yeah.. dropping points at Santiago Barnabeu is a loss for Real Madrid. but also good result for Rayo. appreciation need to go to Rayo's defence structure. Rayo have well anticipated madrid's tactics to open spaces for their midfielders to have their shots while managed to set up a dangerous counter attacks. Rayo really maximalized the lack of madrid's clinical central forward.

this result makes madrid have run in a tight race between two catalan clubs; Girona and Barcelona. The game against Valencia is another test for ancelotti to apply his solution for the front line which has been big issue for them this season. he has to sort out this concern as soon as possible because the competition is still long way to go.

I personally also don't think that AC Milan can be beaten by a team whose quality is much lower. Initially I predicted that AC Milan would definitely win by scoring more than one goal. The reason is that since the first half whistle sounded, AC Milan continued to control the course of the match by putting a lot of pressure and attacks on the Udinese defense. However, none of these attacks resulted in a goal. The reason is that Udinese defense in that match could be said to be very strong. So it was very difficult for AC Milan front players to execute the ball well against Udinese goal. Then in the end a player from AC Milan violated an Udinese player in the penalty box and resulted in a penalty kick which was executed well by Pereyra.


For coaches who have creativity in making strategies and change the game play during the match, the problem in scoring goals will be analyzed and then make changes even with the same formation, but they will show different playing style for attacking or defending. If this minor change does not result in scoring a goal, then the coach will start trying to change the other attack scheme, or even change the strategy by changing the formation. But, Pioli and Milan players look like hard to do something, this is the second lose in a row at home,this is not a good results.


This has become big issue in Milan. Their stragies/tactics are so dependent on Rafael Lećo and this has been much anticipated by their opponents. it seems that Stefano Pioli doesnt try to maximalize right wing role, or maybe Pioli doesnt trust pulisic's ability while also he doesnt have many option in Central forward position.

This problem cant be figured out by Pioli alone, he needs to be backed by sporting directors. They need solutions for pioli to have options and variations in his strategies and tactics. They need new quality players before they decide to have new manager.

The good thing about this round is, we start to see games where one team can be out of the competition, or we start to see how are gonna be for the alst run, i hate the first part, because some teams play in a much relaxed way.

For example today, Celtic needs to win or they are out.

so true..
the 4th game of the group is often the deciding game for many teams in UCL to see their chance for round of 16. some weak teams will have this game as their chance to stay competing, some strong teams will have this game to make sure they can guarantee a place in round of 16.

the most attractive groups are group B, Group E and Group F, where every team still have good chance for their next step and even the favorite teams cant relax because there are still chance for them to go down if they lost the focus. I think tonight Bayern and Mancity will make sure they have the spot in the round of 16 considering they play against much weaker teams and having maximum points.

Quote from: AakZaki
I just read this, the local media in my country said that there are 6 Man United players who want Ten Hag to leave. But it doesn't detail who those players are. But I myself was a little disappointed with Ten Hag's performance. He did not immediately bring Man United to improve. Last season they had a positive effect. But this year has been terrible. Even players who don't get along have to be separated and will even be sold. It doesn't seem to have to be that way, players and coaches should be equally appreciative. Because I think the player that Ten Hag exiled is a good player.
Ten Hag is not the caused of Manchester united poor performance in this season because, he was the one that made the team to ended up top 4th in the premier league competition last year which he can still do something meaningful if the players can organize themselves through out the remaining games. I guess, Manchester united coach made some mistakes during the summer by releasing their formal goalkeeper that saved the teams from the hands of the strong teams last season but since they brought in new goalkeeper, many things has changed negatively in their performance.

 I know that, if Ten Hag fail to resolve this poor performance on ground before the end of their three games, he can get a sack letter from Manchester united president and he will bring in new coach that can help the team to develop good results before the end of the tournament.

I think Manchester United's problems don't come from individuals, but those have become rooted problems in the club from top to bottom and individuals just make those worse with their decisions and attitude. Ten Hag is the right man for the team but not for the whole club. He cant do it alone. it needs willingness from the owner to put the right man in the right place in the board and team management.

Players also make it worse like leadership issue in the team who is not fully respected. Players dont show their desire to play for the club. it's so clear to see that there is no unity in the squad. these all make it hard for Ten Hag to execute his plan properly on the pitch and off the pitch.

In particular, I think Real Madrid have had this problem due to the absence of experienced strikers. And Real Madrid had the ball for most of the game but could not capitalize on it. And it was Real Madrid's failure to find scoring opportunities despite repeated corner kicks.
The same problem occurred from the start of this season, Ancelotti seemed to have no other choice in their front line, Vini and Rodrygo were not working optimally and it was clear that Real Madrid's front line was missing a striker who had good qualities like Benzema but they couldn't find a replacement so far.
In my opinion there is no other solution for Real Madrid other than bringing in a new striker.
What happened is clearly Ancelotti's fault, even though since the start of the season many people have criticized him about bringing in a striker to replace Benzem, but Anceloti still chuckles that his squad is capable, it's a shame what's happening now.

And because this makes Girona now comfortably at the top of the La Liga standings, this is truly a very strange sight to happen this season.

I think bringing a new striker is Madrid's main plan. but Madrid now adopt a philosophy; "signing player that's perfect fit to team or never". They are no longer signing just good talent or big big name. I think that's why madrid havent signed a new striker till now.

it's rumoured that madrid tried to sign Darwin Nunez, but their quota for non-EU players was full, so they couldnt sign him, and last summer they couldnt find a striker who fits to their system. I think Madrid are working on scouting strikers for their next signing, they know that no one will reject their offer because madrid are biggest club in the world.

Perhaps at the moment the sensational transfers this season are Kane and Bellingham. Kane was very prolific in Munich, he contributed to 20 goals Bayern Munich have in the Bundesliga. In fact, he has made 15 goals and 5 assists. In total he made 17 goals in 13 Bayern Munich matches. It seems like better stats when playing in the EPL.
Bellingham was also outstanding, making 14 matches in all competitions and making 13 goals and 3 assists. It's also better than the stats in Dortmund. I only listen to these two people because they are very prominent. There may be other player transfers that you think are good.

Source: google


agreed..
but I dont see the form of these two players in surprising category, because it's expected.
the most impactful transfers for their club are Declan Rice, Dominik Szoboszlai, and James Maddison.
Declan Rice brings more stability to Arsenal's Midfield that Arsenal didnt get that from signing Jorginho. Szoboszlai is now a machine in Liverpool midfield that they didnt have last season. He can do any role given to him in midfield and transforms their midfield to the next level. Maddison is considered the one who makes Spurs look so different this season. Spurs' play looks way more attractive compared to how Spurs played before, and Maddison is the main reason for Spurs transformation.

Milan are in a difficult situation, they had already had many problems for many months, they managed to win due to the sheer strength of the team, the quality of the players but something isn't working. It's not the club, it's not the team, but it's simply the coach. He is not suited to managing a team like Milan. The problems were not resolved and became gangrenous.
It will get worse and worse.
Agree, Milan must immediately take action before things get worse. It is time for Stefano Pioli's leadership to be replaced and a new coach appointed who has a way of thinking about developing rather than maintaining a performance that is no longer comfortable for the Milan players themselves. In my opinion, Milan's failure in the UCL is getting closer and is a warning that their game like this could have a more severe impact in Serie A.

I think Milan's issue is about Pioli has too mush power in the club. since Maldini left, it seems Pioli has lost the plots, he cant handle the situation alone. his tactics has become so rigid, no variation. he doesnt know how to maximize the squad depth that makes unused players feel uncomfort with him.  in some occasions, we can see some players dont agree with his decisions that makes the team's setup unstable because players have to have role they dont expected before.

This situation can cost milan's long term project because they need to keep perform well to stay in UCL spot which guarantees their long term project continues and gets them back as europe giant.

Roma faces SK Slavia Prague next, they doesn't stand to compete with fierce AS Roma this week. Although SK Slavia Prague boss, Jindřich Trpišovskż will reinforced good fight towards AS Roma.
Roma continues to show its expertise when facing matches in the European league currently and is still in a winning trend. I hope Jose Mourinho will continue to make Roma appear amazing in every match they will face.

Even though Roma is appearing impressive at the moment, against Slavia Prague it cannot be underestimated if Roma cannot take advantage of opportunities well. Roma will lose points and Slavia Prague could steal points from Roma because Slavia is only 3 points away from Roma, especially since Slavia will play at their home base of course. Of course this is slightly profitable for Slavia Prague.

Right now, Roma with Jose Mourinho are the serious side at treating Europa League games, because they see this competition as the most possible way for them to get a trophy. against Slavia Prague, Roma will go on full force to win the game because they want to guarantee their spot in Round of 16, so they can focus to progress their position in the league.

For me, Roma are the most favorite side to win UEL Trophy. They may be not stronger than Liverpool, they have more desire in this competition than Liverpool have, because Liverpool dont see this competition as their priority.

Ac.Milan vs PSG is the game of the day without any doubts and by the way Milan plays in Serie A , I won't be surprised if PSG will score 3 goals against them and take those 3 important points.

Newcastle vs Dortmund is also a great game to watch not just to bet and honestly , I do expect both teams to score but hard to guess who can win , so maybe a draw would be fair ?

Lazio - Feyernoord is the game where once again I can see Lazio scoring lately in this game so I might take the risk and actually place a bet on 2nd half Lazio to score.  Cool

out of those three games, I think Newcastle vs Dortmund is the game of the day if we see it in football aspect. both teams are in a good form this season. I predict Newcastle to win because they are on fire right now especially at home, they are in a good mentality after beating Arsenal and Dortmund lost to Bayern.

Milan vs Paris SG on paper is expected to be a good game, but their squad's mentality is questionable right now, PSG's loss to newcastle really showed that. and Milan's internal issue keeps being discussed by fans and pundits. I think PSG will win the game considering individuals' quality is better.

Lazio vs Feyenoord is the game that goes under the radar remembering they are not UCL favorites. but we can expect a good game with Lazio winning it.

Bayern Munich is a club thats is not easy to beat in the Bundesliga. This defeat further proved that Bayern Munich is really tough. In fact, I didn't expectation Dortmund to concede more than 2 goals and 3 goals were scored by Harry Kane.

This defeat was Dortmund first defeat at home in the 10 match they have playing so far, even though they are not a strongs candidate for wins the title, Dortmund is still one of the strongst clubs in the Bundesliga after Bayern Munich.
The Bayern Munich team has a very strong mentality even though Dortmund is in its best form and even the match played at Dortmund's home ground did not make Bayern Munich falter.
Bayern Munich's great victory is not surprising because they deserved it, in terms of team quality and performance Bayern Munich is much better than Dortmund, so far no one has been able to match the quality of Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga.
The player who has attracted the most attention this season is Harry Kane, this new Bayern Munich recruit was able to show very impressive performance in his first season.

the game is about mentality, Dortmund's mentality is experiencing exhaustion from last season failure, the way they failed affects their mentality badly. Bayern are always bayern with their strong mentality and best management off the pitch and best players on the pitch. signing Harry Kane really upgrades their attacks, especially their clinical scoring. that boosts their confidence even more and makes their opponents feel more inferior.

I think Bayern will run alone again in title race if Tuchel is able to handle the dressing room very well remembering the fans are not really satisfied with him. senior players need to give Tuchel more respect to allow him executing his plan successfully. I dont see any team can stop Bayern in Bundesliga this season.

From what I felt after watching this match, Real Madrid's overall performance was similar to the previous matches. Only Bellingham's performance has been slightly weaker. And Bellingham's poor performance kept Madrid from winning. Madrid had 63% ball possession in this match. A total of 22 shots on goal, while Rayo Vallecano's players made only 4. I would say because the team was dependent on Bellingham's performance. So the impact of Bellingham not playing well has been seen in the overall squad. While Joselu managed to hit some good shots, Vini's performance was as usual very poor.

So far I can say Jude Bellingham is the best signing of the summer because he has transformed Real Madrid to a more deadly attacking side. His goal contributions this season are superb, what a brilliant way to kick start his Madrid career and if he goes on like this I bet he will be the next big name in the game in this generation.
But I have to say that calling Jude Bellingham the best summer deal might be a bit early, but I support that view! I've watched every Real Madrid game he's played in and cant deny his effect. Its not easy for someone his age to go from playing middle to being a key attacking force. I wasnt sure about him because Real already has a great team, but he's fit right in. I think he's not only on the way to becoming a big name, but also a football hero if he keeps going in this direction. I saw the game against Rayo Vallecano, and even though there were no goals, his play was a bright spot in what was otherwise a difficult game for Madrid.

yeah.. calling a player/signing the best at early season is too soon, in fact his high price and expectation align to his current form, so its not surprising. but appreciation to a new player that gives big impact immediately to a big club is well deserved. he's not only the future of RMadrid, but also the future of England and football.
but I think his current role is not sustainable, he's not going to keep scoring every game, madrid need a new world class striker to fulfill his ability at midfield as central midfielder after Modric/Kroos retired. I think that's madrid's plan.

1299  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: November 07, 2023, 08:38:21 AM
A wonderful match is behind us. I have never watched such an enjoyable match in the Premier League this year. Tottenham held out very well with 9 men, but it did not work, the offside tactic did not work in the last minutes and they conceded 2 more goals. So I can't blame them because they did their best.
Even though Tottenham also deserves to be appreciated because they were able to survive with 9 players, Chelsea was also happy because they were able to win at Tottenham's home ground. Because all this time Chelsea has been struggling to continue to win so that they can be seen in a better position and this can also be an encouragement for Chelsea for the follow-up match with Manchester City at home. Although I don't think that Chelsea will be able to win again in the follow-up match this weekend.

Loss 4 goals to one is not "survive", losing 2 players is not something to be appreciated, that's a sign of bad attitude from players remembering they also got red card in the game before. That attitude cost the team the next games. Ange has something the sort out if they want continue to compete at the top till the end of season. They've already had a great run, but no time to relax in Premier League. This is about mentality.

also for Chelsea, won a game against 9 players is not something to be happy about. They have to continue to progress tactically and mentally. They need to realize that they havent progress well and that win is not a sign of an improvement. that's the mentality they need to have.

Luiz diaz has become a savior for liverpool. I don't even expect liverpool would be struggling against luton town. It's an unpredictable result for sure. I thought that liverpool would be winning with huge scores against luton town. Although Luton town's ball possession statistics were not impressive, this club has the ability to further complicate the situation by launching counter-attacks against Liverpool. It seems like that there will be more clubs to follow the counter attack strategy that specialized use low blocks.
Liverpool was almost losing in this game.

There will be so many fans from other clubs will be mocking liverpool if this club would be losing against luton town. It's so amazing to see how liverpool is equalizing the game but it's very bad for bettors coz im sure they are losing their money due to the draw from liverpool.
Majority of bettors would be picking liverpool in this match caused by the probability to win the game is very high compared with luton but it must be accepted if liverpool got draw as the result against luton.
This is not a nice game for liverpool. It's always like that. This team is always struggling when it faces a team that was fully defending.
In times like this when the league has gotten past 10 weeks, it becomes tough and you'll see mediocre teams like luton play very impressively and make bigger teams struggle to win, it's not something to be suprised about, because the EPL is a survival of the fittest and only the strong remain therefore most of those mediocre teams work very hard to steal a point from bigger teams to get boosted in the standings and avoid relegation.

 However Luton Town really tried to stop liverpool from getting the 3points they took advantage of their home ground and really defended well against Liverpool, im pretty sure alot of bettors around the world lost their bet due to the outcome of this match cause majority expected Liverpool to win, based on their performance this season and also the fact that Luton Town are no match for liverpool bit they took everyone by suprise and made Liverpool struggle in the game.
The most consistent team that can achieve maximum results in every match because if you say they are a strong team, of course Arsenal is strong enough but they are not consistent. I think the lower ranked teams will also work hard to improve their ranking on the standing so it is quite natural that every match we have seen more aggressive play by both team in order to achieve victory.

However, Manchester City is the strongest team and is consistent in improving their performance where Pep Guardiola men are back at the top of the standings after being knocked into the top 3. For Tottenham, they also have to be consistent in today match to be able to secure 3 point in front of their supporters. Chelsea also has the opportunity to stop Tottenham winning streak if they can play better in today match.
