Preview: Premier League Gameweek 2

The audience was satisfied with the ultimate football thirst after the hearty party of the opening round. There, there are beautiful goals, shining rookies and unexpected results. The teams had a run of momentum to enter the second series.

The focus of the 2022/23 English Premier League (EPL) Gameweek 2 is of course the great battle in London between Chelsea and Tottenham. Both of these giants have won the opening round but in very different ways.

While Chelsea struggled to overcome Everton thanks to Jorginho's penalty goal, Tottenham showed overwhelming strength when scoring 4 goals against Southampton. For that reason, Spurs are being highly appreciated despite having to be a guest at Stamford Bridge.

However, despite a lot of instability, Chelsea is still a very well organized team. Defeating Thomas Tuchel's teachers and students at their holy place is not an easy thing, so it is likely that each team will leave with 1 point. The positive thing here is that the audience will witness a hearty attack party even though both coaches are theoretically in a pragmatic style.

Go to the Liverpool match against Crystal Palace. This is a chance for last season's runners-up to claim their first three points of the season after a forgettable start to Fulham. Palace is an extremely delicious opponent of The Reds when they have lost the last 11 consecutive matches. Liverpool also play at home, so the possibility of them dropping 3 points is extremely low. This could also be Darwin Nunez's first start in the Premier League after a pretty good performance when coming on as a substitute in the previous round.

Another giant with bad results in the Gameweek 1 is Man United. The Red Devils even lost to Brighton at home. Obviously, this is an experience that the new coach Ten Hag does not want at all and he will certainly do everything to reverse the situation.

Eriksen will have a trip back to the yard of his old team Brentford, but after emotional hugs, the Danish midfielder will have to help the new team triumph. In terms of qualifications, the two sides are very different and as long as Ten Hag can stabilize his system, it is highly likely that the Red Devils will have 3 points.

In addition, other giants in the Big Six such as Arsenal and Man City only have to meet weaker opponents and they can also play at home. Therefore, surprises are unlikely to happen.

Aston Villa vs Everton

Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard will go toe-to-toe for the first time as managers when Aston Villa host Everton in Saturday's lunchtime kick-off.

After a summer of big spending, Villa opened the season in the worst possible fashion with a meek 2-0 loss to relegation favourites Bournemouth.

Lampard's Everton just about fell short to Chelsea and while they displayed the grit and determination that kept them up last year, they're still a bit short of quality.

Aston Villa started out as expected when they lost to rookie Bournemouth. Now returning to Villa Park's home ground, it will be a good opportunity for them to get points when the opponent is Everton.

The blue team had a good game against Chelsea on Saturday. However, the departure of Richarlison and Calvert-Lewin's absence due to injury made Everton's attack "blunt" visible. Lampard will have a lot of work to do when facing his former partner

Expect the hosts to take the points here.

Prediction: Aston Villa 1-1 Everton


Arsenal vs Leicester

What could be more fun for Arsenal fans when rookies Jesus, Saliba and Zinchenko make their debuts so impressively, as if they have been with this group for a long time.

The team has not performed too well against the annoying opponent Crystal Palace, but it is important that they know how to bring maximum efficiency when attacking, and preserve the results, which they lacked in previous seasons.

Bored of Leicester City, the Gunners' defense still has to pay close attention to Jamie Vardy, the striker is still very mischievous.

On the offensive front, in front of a defense that no longer has goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel and Johnny Evans is old, Arteta's young men can completely push up the attack quickly and score many goals.

Prediction: Arsenal 3-1 Leicester

Brighton vs Newcastle

The most exciting and unpredictable match of this round. These are two teams with different economic circumstances, but both build commendable collective play.

Brighton had to sell both Bissouma and Cucurella, thinking they would be swallowed up by MU in round 1. But coach Graham Potter taught the Red Devils a lesson about how to attack quickly. The Trossards, Wellbeck, and Gross in Potter's hands all became powerful.

Meanwhile, Newcastle is now very rich, but they do not burn money on blockbusters. Choosing a slow but steady path, they are the team with the most significant progress in the league since the beginning of this year. Regardless of being away, Newcastle always wants to take the initiative.

Prediction: Brighton 1-1 Newcastle


Manchester City vs Bournemouth

Premier League Gameweek 2 Predictions: Man United and Liverpool Have the First Victory
Haaland will continue to score

Premier League champions Manchester City take on Championship runners-up Bournemouth at the Etihad Stadium.

If facing City in the present wasn't hard enough, Scott Parker's Cherries are up against it historically too - Bournemouth have never beaten Saturday's opponents, losing 15 of their 17 encounters, including all 10 of their top-flight fixtures.

Success after the opening match certainly gives Bournemouth players a high spirit of excitement. But perhaps when it comes to the defending champion's field, they will have to "know you know me" to prioritize safety.

Because on the other side of the line there is a "monster" Erling Haaland with the opening double, and this player always wants more, especially when he has Kevin De Bruyne behind him.

Pep Guardiola certainly wants to welcome the Etihad Stadium this season with a spectacular victory to entertain the fans.

Prediction: Manchester City 3-0 Bournemouth

Southampton vs Leeds

Basement club Southampton will look to move off the foot of the table with a result against Leeds.

The Saints' season is already in disarray following reports of unrest in the dressing room, though Jesse Marsch has silenced some of his critics after the Whites put Wolves to the sword last week.

Ralph Hasenhuttl could do with a win already this early in the campaign. Whether he gets one is another matter.

Prediction: Southampton 1-2 Leeds


Wolves vs Fulham

Fulham can continue their fast start to life back in the Premier League with a win at Wolves.

Bruno Lage's side are reeling from an opening day defeat and the loss of club captain Conor Coady to Everton.

His compatriot in the opposite dugout may leave Molineux the happier of the two come Saturday evening.

Prediction: Wolves 1-2 Fulham


Brentford vs Manchester United

Premier League Gameweek 2 Predictions: Man United and Liverpool Have the First Victory
Brentford vs Man Utd

As the only team in the Big 6 group to lose the first round match, MU made the fans extremely disappointed, they expected more than that after a rather noisy summer of preparation.

Certainly Ten Hag has learned many things, especially the problem in the midfield as well as the central position. A bold change in the squad in this away game is to be expected, especially when many people no longer want to see the McFred pair in the middle of the field.

Confronting Brentford at this time is suitable for Ronaldo and his teammates. The home team in the Leicester draw revealed a weakness in controlling the area before the penalty area.

This is an opportunity to have the first MU player to score this season, from there to 3 points, and get the morale up for the match against Liverpool in the third round.

Nottingham Forest vs West Ham

The City Ground will play host to a Premier League match for the first time in the 21st century on Sunday when Nottingham Forest host West Ham.

Travelling Hammers fans will be hoping to see more from their side after a flat performance in last week's loss to Man City, while Forest will be feeling much the same having failed to register a shot on target vs Newcastle.

David Moyes' men should have just enough to overpower Steve Cooper's newbies here.

Prediction: Nottingham Forest 0-2 West Ham

Chelsea vs Tottenham

Premier League Gameweek 2 Predictions: Man United and Liverpool Have the First Victory
Chelsea vs Tottenham

Chelsea and Tottenham's early title credentials will be put to the test when they square off at Stamford Bridge.

Spurs lost all four games they played against the Blues last season - scoring a grand total of zero goals, while their only win at the Bridge in the Premier League era came when Antonio Conte was in charge of the west Londoners.

Derby in London is the highlight game of this week. Both teams have added quality names to the squad like Sterling, Koulibaly, Perisic, Richarlison.

However, the most interesting confrontation is still between the two strategists Thomas Tuchel and Antonio Conte.

They are typical representatives of the school of using 3 central defenders, combined with fast wingers.

Chelsea have the home field advantage and better quality defenders. However, although Tottenham still have limited defensive resources, the attack is increasingly smooth, the Son - Kane pair is still the type of striker that Chelsea currently does not have.

Liverpool vs Crystal Palace

The late match closed the gameweek 2.

Liverpool will aim to make up some early ground on their title rivals with three points at home to Crystal Palace on Monday night.

Losing points against Fulham was an early-season accident for Liverpool. But the positives are Darwin Nunez's ability to quickly integrate, as well as Mo Salah's well-maintained form.

Klopp will have to readjust his defense. Liverpool's way of raising the offside trap last season is gradually being studied and exploited by opponents.

Crystal Palace is a nasty opponent for anyone. Objectively, they played well against Arsenal, even creating better opportunities but missed. Before Liverpool, Patrick Vieira's army needs to be more careful, if they want to win points.
