However without Nkunku the line up for that all important first English Premier League match of the season, I still expect Chelsea to win the match over Liverpool. The blues has significantly improved since the arrival of the new manager and since this is the first test to show their improvement, I expect at least a point from that game even without a vital player like Nkunku

In hoping Chelsea can pick up a win over Liverpool without Christopher Nkunku still can as Mauricio Pochettino still has Lukaku returning from a loan spell or Pochettino exercising the option of putting Mudryk or Nicolas Jackson as players assigned to score.

I did not mention the strength of Liverpool, which can appear with strength in analyzing the results of this match will end in a draw because of the Stamford Bridge factor which can make it difficult for The Red. For me the factor of the home match will favor Chelsea which makes me sure the bet will win on those who choose a draw.

[naira]

Chelsea's first match of the season without their talisman Christopher Nkunku will be a very tough test for their new Mauricio Pochettino. Nkunku before his injury has shown great signs of leadership in Chelsea's attacking line and would've given Liverpool defenders difficult game if he was fit for the match.

This is bad news for Chelsea, the first game is a very important result. In Nkuku absence Mauricio Pochettino will make some changes. Liverpool is certainly not an easy opponent, even though at this time the depth of the squad is arguably unstable but still for now Liverpool is still above Chelsea.

Regardless of Nkuku absence, I still hope that as the match goes on the referee who is often considered bad for Chelsea fans doesn't make this an act that is detrimental to either party.

[BRINIRHA]

There's a high possiblity of the game ending as a full-time draw once again. I already staked my slip on this one and a couple others for the weekend. All of the shambles of last season shouldn't be carried across to the new season, rather they should look at it and keep themselves motivated. This is my issue with em. Injuries affect em and they haven't yet signed player's to replace em up.

Both sides had a great Pre-season. Chelsea at home hardly loss to Liverpool, I got to know about this from the days of Jose Mourinho.
Jurgen Klopp won Pochetino Mauricio during the Champions League finals with Tottenham Hotspur, but this is a new club, I'm not so sure he'll get that win with easily. My final prediction is for that game to end as a full-time draw.

I also think this fight will end in a draw. Maybe the quality of Liverpool's game is better at this time. But Chelsea under coach Mauricio Pochettino seem to be starting to find their game again. But even though there has been an improvement in Chelsea's game that doesn't mean they can beat Liverpool. And because this will be Chelsea's home game, it doesn't mean that Chelsea will be more favored. Maybe if one of Chelsea's strikers isn't injured then maybe Chelsea will be superior because they are playing at home and also have a great line of attack. But in this match, for sure Mauricio Pochettino will also be a little more careful and maybe will guard their defense more tightly. So that Liverpool will definitely find it difficult to penetrate the Chelsea defense in this match. And we know that in the first match at the start of the season all clubs always play more carefully. Because the results of the first match sometimes affect the mentality and motivation of players in subsequent matches. So that both teams must play safely in this match. And a draw is the most likely.

I will not doubt the easy victory that Manchester City will get in their first match in the Premier League this season, especially their defeat in the Community Shield match will certainly be a big motivation and if you look at the team's strength, of course Manchester City is much stronger than Burnley.
I will bet on Manchester City's big win in this game. I think that at the start of the season a top team like Manchester City will not let their guard down and they will focus on achieving big wins in order to secure the best position and stabilize the team's mentality.

Almost everyone thinks the same thing, easy win for Manchester City but betting for City win is not a good idea because the odds are low x1.32

How big you expect the odds for city? City has become the most favorite club in that match. I was taking multibet for that. City has more than 80% chance to win the game against burnley even though burnley has become a winner of championship but the quality is far differ compared with EPL. I would like to call that if city was a safe bet right now.
Im taking it now rather than another difficult bet like chelsea vs liverpool which were not giving satisfied odds. It's good enough for the people who was playing safe bet caused by the chance to win is very big.

Unless you predict Manchester City will win more than 2 goals then the odds are x1.86 but of course the risk is higher because City only need one goal to get 3 points
This season Manchester City are still favorites for the title, Arsenal is in 2nd place and Liverpool is in 3rd place based on the bookies prediction.

I doubt if city will not able to win with huge scores against burnley. We cannot undervalue Burnley at this moment, even though they are coming from the championship. Betting more than 2 goals are very risky for now as it's opening match.
We don't know how strong burnley under vincent kompany. Burnley's squad is not that bad too.

[piebeyb]

Manchester City players are full of themselves. Each player has different skills which Pep Guardiola has used brilliantly to make the team one of the strongest teams. I believe Manchester City team will do amazing things this season.

Moreover, they have purchased pretty good players, so they brought in some good players to make this squad even greater, I believe that this season Manchester City will be the strongest club to win the EPL for the umpteenth time, Guardiola is the best coach in the EPL at the moment I think he will not give other EPL clubs a chance to overtake them at the top of the standings.

Even though I know many EPL clubs have revamped their strategy and new players will obviously make the competition even tougher, I am confident that Manchester City can show the quality of their playing style better than last season and get rid of other clubs in the EPL who are competing with them. at the top of the standings. Soon the EPL will start and I can't wait to see Manchester city's first game in the match against Burnley.

Regardless of Nkuku absence, I still hope that as the match goes on the referee who is often considered bad for Chelsea fans doesn't make this an act that is detrimental to either party.

I think this is one of the biggest setbacks that Chelsea could suffer from so early on. Nkunku has played some outstanding games for his former club and I believe he would have done really well for Chelsea. He even needed an operation and will be ruled out for an extended period of time. These are the variables that no coach can really account for. Chelsea is still ok, but that is also an issue many clubs have when they have only one strong offender and that offender suffers from an injury. If they have two of the same quality there is always trouble for one of them because of sitting on the bench.

Burnley is not a team to be underrated in the Premier League because they struggled to qualify by winning the Championship League with just three defeats throughout the competition. I also think they are strong enough to be given consideration in the EPL because of how good the team is and how hard they always look to be defeated by big Premier League big clubs.

As said earlier, Manchester City may win the match, but not as easily as we are expecting because they will find it a bit difficult before winning it.

If I will place a bet on this particular match, I will play both teams to score because I am sure Burnley will not go without a goal in their first Premier League match of the season.

Injury is the main reason why a team should have more than one quality player in a particular position, especially in the striking zone. Now this will be a very hard start for Pochettino because he will be starting the League with a very strong opponent without a first-choice striker due to injury, and we know how aggressive Liverpool can be, especially as they will not be playing in the UEFA Champions League this season.

Both Chelsea and Liverpool's main aim is to fight for the Premier League title; therefore, every point is important for them all. But I am sure Pochettino will improvise and use some of his wingers since they have them to play the striking rule, or probably go for a striker in the market before the summer closes.

Yes, of course Man City has a great chance to win in its first match in the EPL league. Although this season it is difficult for Man City to maintain the EPL League because many of their star players have left, I believe that their first match will get three points. Erling Haaland will be Man City's mainstay up front for sure because in Man City's last meeting with Burnley he scored a hat trick with a final score of 6-0 for Man City's victory.

This match will also be interesting because there will be a reunion of the former Man City player who is now Burnley coach, Vincent Kompany. We know that Vincent Kompany has played as a centre-back for over eleven years and he has also had success with Manchester City. But now he has to prove he can beat Pep Guardiola, his former coach. You could say this fight is like a former student vs teacher match.

Burnley I think would've had better chances of taking something out of their first English Premier League match of the season had the Manchester club won their Community Shield game against Arsenal on Sunday.
City lost that game and wouldn't want to jeopardize their chances of retaining the English Premier League title this season and that's why they'll go all out to win the game and send a clear message to other Premier League clubs that they're still the Champions of England and are capable to retain the title. Burnley will want to also prove a point against City but I think they'll be totally outclassed in the game

I think the same.Burnley retained most of their players when they relegated and that is why they had a very easy comeback from Championship to Premier League by completely dominating the last season of the Championship.

However once they are in the top flight again and their bad luck to fight against the reigning Champions of Premier League who happen to also make a triple of trophies won last year including Champions League,means they stand absolutely no chance to even hold Manchester City to a draw.I think this game will end with a tennis result in favor of Manchester City something in 5-0 or 6-0 line.

Indeed, Manchester City's first match is quite easy, if we look at the composition and strength of the players that each club has. But usually the first match will be vulnerable, because there they can get pressure to get their first victory to make them more confident in playing the next match.
I also put Manchester City as favorites, and most likely I will also bet there to start my bet in this season's competition.
This will be Manchester City's away game, and it's likely that there will be more than 3 goals between the two clubs.

I don't think the Burnley team is strong. The team failed to qualify for the Premier League last season. And it's true that their performance has improved since Kompany coached this team. However, the team's players do not seem to have the ability to beat a big team like Manchester City. Manchester City will easily win this match if no accident happens.

Manchester City is a very experienced team. Every player in the squad is very talented. And more importantly, the understanding between the players is excellent. Manchester City don't usually drop points against relatively weak teams. That's why I think Manchester City are unlikely to drop points against Burnley.

[hyudien]

There's a high possiblity of the game ending as a full-time draw once again. I already staked my slip on this one and a couple others for the weekend. All of the shambles of last season shouldn't be carried across to the new season, rather they should look at it and keep themselves motivated. This is my issue with em.

Christopher Nkunku is indeed key in terms of building attacks, but Chelsea will certainly not depend on him who will be absent for a long time. So Pochettino will not take any chances just because Nkuku is not on the line-up. Maybe I agree that Chelsea will be a little under pressure, even Liverpool can't guarantee they will win. A draw could have happened as you said, after all Liverpool also lost several midfielders whose role was very important. Both have deficiencies in their respective lines, so it is still difficult to predict who will win the match.

After Christopher Nkunku got injury and absent on several matches later with Chelsea have good news with Romelu Lukaku back to training center and he has join with Chelsea squad. Become capital for Pochettino after Christopher Nkunku injury and not many option choosing for attacking line right now and Lukaku could be trying against Liverpool on the first Premier League match.

I think Liverpool have solid teams than Chelsea, all Liverpool on fit condition and different with Chelsea leaves by Christopher Nkunku after injury and must be absent on the first match. Liverpool has bigger chance winning against Chelsea and last confirm all players available for playing without get injury.

[Dzwaafu11]

The opening game is Burnley - Manchester City. On paper of course this is a comfortable matchup for Manchester City. However this is the beginning of the season so let's see if we would see some struggles. They started the season with a sad loss against Arsenal in the Community Shield game. It would have been helpful for them to motivate themselves for this game more if they won.

But of course we are still talking about Manchester City. They should be able to win this game by one or two-goal gap probably. The gap would be even higher to me if we weren't at the beginning of the season. But who knows maybe I would still be wrong about it and we see a bigger win.

Even though I'm always saying this season may be tough for Manchester City or that there is no guarantee that they will do the same as they did last season, I don't think Burnley will beat Manchester City with the current performance of the team. However, in football, anything can happen. Let's see how the game goes. We should not decide now, and this is just the beginning of the season. I believe Burnley will do all they can to see them succeed in the match since they just got promoted to the English Premier League competition, so they won't want to start with bad news, and their home city will go home to play. I believe this will also be another motivation for them.

[rendravolt]

West Ham introduced its newest signing from Ajax, namely Edson Alvarez. He is a defensive midfielder who will replace the role of Declan Rice who has joined Arsenal. West Ham are very serious for next season and are keen to continue updating their overall squad depth. David Moyes definitely wants his squad to be able to compete again in next season's competition, especially for the EPL competition because they were at the bottom of the standings last season and have the possibility of being relegated. Surely West Ham will maximize everything in the next season and try to finish in a better position. Next we will wait for another announcement from West Ham there are James Ward-Prowse and Harry Maguire who have reached an agreement.

Neither team may be fully prepared for the league. An important name has been injured in Chelsea, which is made up of new players. In the absence of Nkunku, offensive organizations may be weaker. They also sold Kai Havertz to Arsenal and lost some more power. Although it sounds like Liverpool close to a win, it's not worth the risk to bet.

Liverpool and Chelsea faced tough opponents in the opening match of the season. It is difficult to predict which team will win. However, both the teams have tried to build a strong squad. Both the teams have made several changes within the squad.
But in this match I will bet Liverpool to win. Even though it's Chelsea's home match, I consider Liverpool favourites. In this match, Chelsea are not getting two important players in their squad, Nkunku and Fofana. Besides, I don't see any good performance from Chelsea in friendly matches. They could not win against Newcastle and Dortmund. Both the matches were drawn. The overall condition of the Chelsea team is still not stable. For these reasons, I consider Liverpool as the favorite.
     

If we refer to the available odds, then we can conclude that this match is quite balanced. of these two teams, none of them are favored by the bookies. there is a possibility, the match will end in a draw. well, let's refer to the H2H of these two teams, out of the 6 meetings between Chelsea and Liverpool it always ended in a draw, both home and away matches.
Interestingly, this season both teams are improving to become the top team in this competition. whether it's Chelsea with their new squad, as well as Liverpool who are trying to overhaul some of their players in order to achieve what they are targeting this season.

Chelsea had pre-season matches with positive results, as well as the pre-season matches that Liverpool played, they only lost narrowly to Bayern in a friendly match. however, the real match is for these two teams to meet. they will show their best game, to gain full points in their early Premier League debut. I'm sure this match will feature enough exciting battles from the two teams, both Pochettino and Klopp will maximize their team's squad.
For now, there's not much that I can say, especially since I haven't gotten a prediction for the line-up of these two teams. so, let's wait when the Premier League rolls back.

[Zoomic]

Chelsea's first match of the season without their talisman Christopher Nkunku will be a very tough test for their new Mauricio Pochettino. Nkunku before his injury has shown great signs of leadership in Chelsea's attacking line and would've given Liverpool defenders difficult game if he was fit for the match.
However without Nkunku the line up for that all important first English Premier League match of the season, I still expect Chelsea to win the match over Liverpool. The blues has significantly improved since the arrival of the new manager and since this is the first test to show their improvement, I expect at least a point from that game even without a vital player like Nkunku

This is bad news for Chelsea, the first game is a very important result. In Nkuku absence Mauricio Pochettino will make some changes. Liverpool is certainly not an easy opponent, even though at this time the depth of the squad is arguably unstable but still for now Liverpool is still above Chelsea.

Regardless of Nkuku absence, I still hope that as the match goes on the referee who is often considered bad for Chelsea fans doesn't make this an act that is detrimental to either party.

Even if I am not a Chelsea supporter, I have so much admired and relied on Nkunku to deliver Chelsea at the front this season. I think I am not alone here, Pochettino must have also relied on him and that is why he was comfortable letting others go. The duo of Christopher Nkunku and Maduake would have been a hell on Liverpool's defence.
However, Chelsea recently has improved very well but they are yet not upto the standard of Liverpool last season towards the ending. So, I still expect that Liverpool's worse result in that match will be draw.

[X-ray]

Christopher Nkunku is indeed key in terms of building attacks, but Chelsea will certainly not depend on him who will be absent for a long time. So Pochettino will not take any chances just because Nkuku is not on the line-up. Maybe I agree that Chelsea will be a little under pressure, even Liverpool can't guarantee they will win. A draw could have happened as you said, after all Liverpool also lost several midfielders whose role was very important. Both have deficiencies in their respective lines, so it is still difficult to predict who will win the match.

I can't imagine chelsea to play without nkuku against LFC. In fact, nkuku does so many contributions to the chelsea's performance during the preseason. That being said that if there would be no one in the club that will able to replace his position at this moment.
Chelsea needs to find his back up as soon as possible. The first match in EPL gonna come to chelsea. The club needs to complete some transfer as soon as possible. Chelsea needs to sell some players as soon as possible too.

Nkuku is a suitable partner for jackson. The club needs to find someone who will be be able to replace him as an excellent partner for jackson as the main striker of chelsea right now.
Im very disappointed after hearing how long nkuku gonna absence from EPL. He is gonna miss likely 16 weeks which is a very long time and it's almost a half of season.

[Queentoshi]

I can't imagine chelsea to play without nkuku against LFC.

If Chelsea are really a better team, they should be able to do well even without Nkuku who is out injured. The Chelsea team played well during the preseason and show promising signs to have a better season, Liverpool will give them a good chance to put up a display that will be hard to ignore by the critics of the club. Liverpool lost two of their major midfield players in the transfer window, so their midfield will still be lacking in some areas that can be exploited by Chelsea if their midfield does well. If Chelsea wins the midfield in the game, they can win the whole game and take the three points.
