Premier League, 20th round. When we talk about form, whom to mention if not Liverpool. The Reds lost only two points since the beginning of the season, and in the last six rounds they have not only maximum achievement, but impressive performance – all six wins and goal difference 18:4! This weekend Liverpool welcome the second-best form rival – Wolverhampton. The club which is the most pleasant surprise of this season, and who won the titleholder Manchester City on Friday (3:2). Just to mention, beware of Klopp’s rotation, because this is for his team ninth game in all competitions in December. Apart from that, we remind you that Wolverhampton have only three defeats in the last 21 games in all competitions.
And what about the worst form? With only two points in the last six rounds no worse than Norwich. What to expect from the team which have a single win in the last 14 Premier League meetings, when they welcome Mourinho’s Tottenham? Maybe… Surprise? Because the guests coming without three suspended regulars: Son Heung-min, Moussa Sissoko and Harry Winks. One more note. Tottenham have only two wins in the last 15 away league games. Who knows…
Whether Ancelotti can improve poor Everton record on the road, with only one win this season, more precisely a single win in the last 12 away Premier League games? We would say very hard. Because Newcastle have only one loss this season and have a string of nine home clashes without a loss. Could Southampton achieve the third win in a row against weakened Crystal Palace, coming without six important players? Why not, when we know that the Eagles won only one from the last seven mutual clashes. What to expect from Manchester United, with their poor away record this term? The Devils have won only twice in the last 13 league matches on the road, but they rarely lose from Burnley.
The ex-champion, as we can say freely, Manchester City, welcome the rival who is without a loss in the last 18 away meetings in all competition. Yes, you read it well. That’s a Sheffield United away record, so bet against them, if you dare. For the end – London calling. Arsenal – Chelsea, city rivals. The Blues with more success on the road this season, and the Gunners with more success in the distant past. Wenger out, Emery out, Arteta just in, but how long? Does he know that Arsenal have won only two from the last 15 league games against Chelsea? We know…
Have a nice weekend! And successful!
