Dimitar Berbatov previews the weekend Premier League action including Chelsea vs Arsenal
After the tedium of the international break the Premier League is back with a bang this weekend. A London derby at Stamford Bridge between Chelsea and Arsenal represents the undoubted highlight and the result will tell us much about the prospects of success for both clubs this season. The Gunners will want to follow-up their landmark win over Manchester City with another significant victory, while the Blues will hope to show the progress they appeared to have made prior to the break wasn’t a false dawn.
As ever, Betfair ambassador Dimitar Berbatov previews the action for Metro.co.uk…
Liverpool v Everton
No players like the early kick-off. It’s a derby, but Liverpool are still the better team so I’ll go for a Liverpool win. Prediction: 2-0.
Brentford v Burnley
Brentford will be kicking themselves after the loss against Man United. Burnley are in trouble, but I think they’ll still be up for the game and fighting to get the points. I’ll go for a draw. Prediction: 1-1.
Bournemouth v Wolves
Bournemouth have to press the reset button as they’ve lost three in a row now. They need a win now to correct their recent run of results so I’ll go with a Bournemouth win. Prediction: 1-0.
Nottingham Forest v Luton
It’s been a tricky time in the Premier League for Luton, and they didn’t make their man advantage count last time out against Spurs. In this one I’m tempted to go for a draw, but I think Nottingham Forest will get one over Luton so I’ll go for a home win. Prediction: 1-0.
