Premier League Title Race – Weekend Preview
It’s not over yet! Premier League leaders Liverpool dropping points against Aston Villa isn’t an awful result for them. Obviously, things can change quite quickly and if they fail to beat Manchester City this weekend, it will start to look like a problem.
When I checked Liverpool’s fixtures a few weeks ago, I immediately thought this is a tricky week for them with away games at Villa and City in the space of three days. But I always thought they will be safe in the title race as long as they picked up four points from these games. Despite the draw against Villa, Liverpool are still on track to do that, especially considering how poor City have been!
No matter what happens, this could end up being one of the most decisive weekends in the Premier League title race. Without further ado, let’s dive straight into the predictions for gameweek 26.
Leicester City vs Brentford
This is a must-win game for Leicester. They haven’t scored a goal in each of their last five home games in the Premier League! The funny thing is that they often look good while going forward but they can’t find the back of the net. Eventually, they run out of ideas and the confidence just goes away, allowing their opponents to take control.
This is the wrong time for Leicester to play Brentford at their own backyard. Few weeks ago, Brentford were struggling to secure a win on the road. But now they have three straight wins away from home. It’s all about timing in football and the fact that Brentford are on a good run makes them favorites here.
Leicester are in serious trouble if they lose again and I don’t expect this game to be kind on them.
Prediction: Leicester City 0-2 Brentford
Everton vs Manchester United
I predicted Tottenham to beat Manchester United last weekend and that is exactly what happened. If you are picking United to win against Everton, you are doing it just because of their stature as a club. I think this is a game Everton should look to win. If they can find that tempo they had in the game against Liverpool, they will beat Manchester United. But if they play like they did against Bournemouth, good luck to them!
This game also offers an interesting sub-plot with respect to David Moyes facing his former employers in Manchester United. Although he failed to find success at Old Trafford, he simply had to take that job when it was offered to him. The job to replace Sir Alex Ferguson was
