D'Pundit's EPL Correct Score Tips

Saturday 20 August 2022

/ by Colin Udoh

 



Last matchday was filled with many shocking results especially the 4-0 hammering of Manchester United by Brentford.  However, I still managed to call five match outcomes correctly including the score-line of the game involving Chelsea and Tottenham at Stamford Bridge. I expect matchday three to also give us many surprising results. So, which team is going to shock fans this weekend? Read on to find out...



Tottenham Hotspur vs Wolves

I watched Tottenham last weekend against Chelsea I I think they were lucky to come out of that one with a point. Chelsea completely outplayed them. If they do not step up their game here, they might drop points. 

Wolves drew at home last weekend and are without a win so far in this campaign. So, they will be going all out here for the win but I think Tottenham will have too much for them. Albeit, I foresee a very slim Tottenham win as I expect Bruno Lage's Wolves to really give them a run for their money.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Tottenham 2-1 Wolves


Leicester vs Southampton

I think this should be Leicester's first win of the season. I say so because Southampton are very poor on the road. Last season, this same fixture ended in a 4-1 win for Leicester but I am not expecting the score line to be that large in this one but there is no stopping a Leicester win.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Leicester 2-0 Southampton


Everton vs Nottingham Forest

Everton really disappointed me last weekend. I was rooting for them to at least get something at Aston Villa but they went on to lose the game 2-1. That's two defeats in a row now for Frank Lampard's men. If they want to win then, these sort of games are the games they should be winning. But I fear Nottingham Forest; especially with the sort of business they have done this season in the window. They brought in 15 new signings and they are still looking at getting more. I think if those signings can blend on time Nottingham Forest will be a force to reckon with in the league.

I am just going to back this one to end in a draw. It should be a very entertaining draw.

Crystal Palace vs Aston Villa

I thought Crystal Palace were impressive against Liverpool last Monday. They took the game to Liverpool and got something out of the game. They should have won at Anfield if not for a moment of brilliance from Luis Diaz. I think they should be able to win this one in front of their home fans. Aston Villa are not consistent with their performance; they could be brilliant today and play out a very disappointing performance the next day. So I am going to stick with Crystal Palace to win slim.

Fulham vs Brentford

Brentford shocked the footballing world last weekend when they trounced Manchester United 4-0 at halftime. But I don't expect them to find Fulham that easy to beat here. Fulham have been decent in their games so far this season and I think they will cause Brentford lots of trouble. I am seeing a score draw here as I am struggling to pick out a winner.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Fulham 1-1 Brentford


Bournemouth vs Arsenal

Under Scott Parker, Bournemouth love to play expansive football and that's why it was easy to predict a big defeat for them against Manchester City last weekend. Because they will open up spaces to be exploited by trying to play expansively. In-form Arsenal are also going to win here as this will be a battle of quality which Arsenal clearly have the edge. I am going for an Arsenal win here.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Bournemouth 0-2 Arsenal


Leeds vs Chelsea

Chelsea were very unlucky not to come out last weekend's encounter against Tottenham with a win. I the referee got some of his decisions wrong and it costed Chelsea their win. I expect them to come here in a very vengeful manner after all that transpired last weekend. Leeds are not pushovers but I don't think they will be able to withstand Chelsea on Sunday. So, I am backing the Blues to amass all three points here.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Leeds 1-2 Chelsea


West Ham vs Brighton

West Ham have lost their opening two games and will be out to get their first win in front of their fans here. But the problem here is that Brighton are a very decent side under Graham Potter and will seek to cause the home team lot of trouble. I think this will end in a draw. I really can't find a winner here.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: West Ham 1-1 Brighton


Newcastle vs Manchester City

Newcastle have become a thorn in the flesh since they changed owners and started bringing in players and a very decent manager in Eddie Howe. Manchester City will have a tough time here on Sunday but I think Pep Guardiola's men have too much quality in their ranks and should be able to squeeze out a very slim victory.

Godwin d Pundit's correct score prediction: Newcastle 0-1 Manchester City


Manchester United vs Liverpool

I think the Manchester United fans will begin to question the new manager's credibility if they lose this one against a very depleted Liverpool side. Jurgen Klopp's men will come into this game without a recognized striker, having lost Darwin Nunez to suspension and Roberto Firmino to injury. So I really expect Manchester United to take advantage and hurt them on Monday night.

I am going to back Erik Ten Hag's men to pick their first win here because anything other than a win will be disappointing to me.  Having lost scandalously to Brentford last weekend, they should be gingered to crush any opponent they come against so as to appease the fans.
