Premier League Week 2 Predictions

by David An

Swansea City vs. Manchester United 

Swansea have lost Sigurdsson to Everton and Llorente to injury. It's hard to see where the goals will come from. A comfortable victory for 

Manchester United Bournemouth vs. Watford 

Last season the Cherries here a force at home as they cemented their place in the Premier League. Can't see that being disrupted by Watford this weekend. 

Burnley vs. West Brom Albion 

Fresh from a upset win against the champions I back Burnley to continue their form in front of their own fans. 

Leicester City vs. Brighton Hove Albion 

With Jamie Vardy scoring two goals last week despite their loss, look for the Foxes to beat the newly promoted team. 

Liverpool vs. Crystal Palace 

Liverpool will go into the game as favourites but Palace have been their bogey team. Liverpool old boy scored two against his old employees last time out. This will be anything but straight forward for the reds. 

Southampton vs. West Ham

 In the battle of mid table contenders I expect a draw. Both teams didn't score last week so the team that finds inspiration will prevail. 

Stoke City vs. Arsenal 

The team that's given a lot of troubles to Arsenal in the past with their physical style of play. Expect a physical contest to end in a draw. 

Huddersfield Town vs. Newcastle 

With Huddlesfield getting off to an excellent start last week I expect them to do well against a Newcastle team that got off to a shakey start. 

Tottenham Hotspur vs. Chelsea 

The blockbuster, you can't miss this game. With last seaon's 1 and 2 battling it out before they've hit top gear should be entertaining but you feel both teams will settle for a draw.

Manchester City vs. Everton 

A stern test of their title credentials, this will be the kind of game they need to win to become Champions. Expect a tough test but the quality of Manchester City should see them home.
