Champions league 2018-19 Starts Here for Many Teams

Brighton & West Ham Kick Off The Weekend

The presence of European football is always cause for excitement amongst football fans, regardless of whether or not their club is involved in it. Both the Champions League and the Europa League represent the pinnacle of club football, not just in the continent, but likely around the world. Still, while that’s all well and good it’s still interesting to take a look at some specific leagues around Europe – and in this instance, we’re going to take a look at what should be an intriguing Premier League encounter between two teams who seem to be heading in opposite directions this season.

Cardiff’s Big Chance Arrives Against Burnley

The Premier League returns this weekend, and while we can appreciate a bit of Carabao (League) Cup action when it rolls around every so often, there’s nothing quite like the thrill of top flight English football. The twists and the turns that go down on a week by week basis often keep us on the edge of our seats, to the point where we’re excited for any and all matches – including the ones that don’t initially seem all too appealing.

Liverpool to Gain Revenge for Midweek Defeat against Chelsea

It was Chelsea who took the first game between these two in midweek when they went away to Anfield and picked up a 2-1 victory. They drew first blood in the Carabao Cup, but it is this game that is the most important fixture out of the two, in the Premier League. Liverpool are the only team to have won every game so far this season, while Chelsea lost their 100% record last weekend when they drew 0-0 away at West Ham.

Arsenal Attempt To Keep The Ball Rolling

The Premier League returns today, and yet while there are a series of fascinating games that will go down between now and the end of the day, we’re more interested in what will be happening tomorrow. In addition to West Ham United taking on Chelsea in a London derby, Arsenal will also be hosting Everton at the Emirates as they aim to keep their winning streak going. The Toffees, on the other hand, are in somewhat desperate need of a victory in order to get their campaign back on track following a somewhat rocky start.

Manchester City to Bounce Back in Wales this Weekend

It isn’t too often that Manchester City have to bounce back from a poor performance and a defeat but this weekend it is something they will have to do. They head to Wales to take on Cardiff in the Premier League and go on the back of a night to forget in Europe on Wednesday. They were beaten 2-1 at home by French side Lyon in what was the shock of the first week, making headlines all around Europe.

Bohemians Look a Solid Bet to Pick Up Home Win

Southampton & Brighton Have A Point To Prove

The Premier League returned with a vengeance yesterday after the international break, and if you caught a glimpse of Match of the Day then you’ll understand what we’re talking about. From the top of the league to the very bottom we saw clubs scratching and clawing in a desperate attempt to build some momentum, and while some succeeded, others obviously failed. We’ve got two more delicious games to drool over this afternoon, but on top of that,

Big Spending Wolves Hoping for Positive Opening Day Result

Wolves Aim To Increase Pressure On Burnley

The Premier League is back after two weeks of international football for us all to deal with. Of course, you wouldn’t have found many people complaining about international football just a few months ago, but the World Cup is a completely different entity. These games at the start of the domestic season are always seen as quite pointless, and while they may have introduced the UEFA Nations League, that hasn’t really changed the viewpoint of many.

Watford Can Continue Perfect Start Against Manchester United

Right now Watford are in 3rd place in the Premier League table with 12 points, while Manchester United are in 10th place with six points. Had you asked fans of the game about how the league would have looked after the first four games, almost everyone would have told you that these two teams would be the opposite way round, with United in 3rd and Watford in 10th. However, that isn’t the case and while the poor start that Manchester United have had has been one of the biggest talking points so far,

Tottenham and Liverpool Set for Wembley Stalemate

The game of the week in the Premier League is the first one to take place this weekend when Liverpool head down to Wembley to take on Tottenham. These two are two of the best teams in the league, and two who are looking to challenge Manchester City for the league title this season. Both teams have started well and now the international break is over they will be looking to get back into legue action and continue their good run.

Manchester United Can Ease to First Friendly Victory

Burnley & Manchester United Face Huge Local Derby

English football can be a tricky thing to work around, especially when you compete in the Premier League. It’s considered to be one of the most competitive leagues in the world, both in terms of its entertainment factor and how difficult it is to find consistency. We’ve seen big teams falter and we’ve seen surprise results for over 25 years now, so you’d think nothing would surprise us. While that’s true that doesn’t mean we don’t still get incredibly amped up to see two notable teams go against one another,

Expect Goals in King Power Clash Between Leicester and Liverpool

Both Leicester and Liverpool will be happy with their start to the season, and this clash between the two of them on Saturday should be a good test for both. The bookmakers make Liverpool strong favourites here and while I agree they should be favourites for the game, the price on offer is very poor. Leicester have impressed so far this season, their only defeat came away at Old Trafford on the opening day of the season and since then they have won twice.

Manchester United & Tottenham Battle On Monday Night Football

Following another lively set of fixtures yesterday as well as what will likely be an entertaining few games today, it’s safe to say that the Premier League is well and truly back. The top flight of English football has always been viewed as one of the premier forms of football entertainment across the world, and there are many good reasons for that. Two of those reasons, ironically enough, are set to square off tomorrow on Monday Night Football,
