Predictions 21-22.01.2023

Liverpool vs Chelsea | Premier League

21/01/2023 12:30

Prediction: 1-0

The two big disappointments of the Premier League face off on Saturday, January 21, at Anfield Road. The Reds, who were beaten to the title by Manchester City last year, are ninth with 28 points today, five points behind fifth place and ten steps away from qualifying for the next Champions League.The same goes for Chelsea, who share their position in the rankings and points with the Reds. The more than 300 million spent on the market have not brought about a breakthrough, and Potter is at risk of exemption in the event of another slip.

The Reds come into the match after back-to-back league defeats, 3-0 by Brighton and 3-1 by Brentford, heavy results that cannot be erased by Wednesday night’s 1-0 success at Wolves in the FA Cup. Chelsea made a similar speech after defeating Crystal Palace in the Premier League’s last round, but they had previously lost three games in a row, including two against Manchester City and one against Fulham.

• Liverpool have won three of their last four Premier League games at home.
• At Anfield, the Reds have scored 20 points on the scoresheet this season with 6 wins and only one defeat in the Premier League.
• Chelsea have lost five of the last six away games they have played.
• Very difficult period for the blues, who have lost six of their last nine games in all competitions.

Manchester City vs Wolves | Premier League

22/01/2023 14:00

Prediction: 3-0

With a stratospheric second half, Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City won the second half of the seventh day of the Premier League by beating Tottenham 4-2 at home. Now the Citizens await Julen Lopetegui’s Wolverhampton Wanderers on the 21st day of the English top division. It will be played at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday, December 22, 2023.

Manchester City is five points ahead of Arsenal, who have one game in hand, while Wolves, who won 1-0 against West Ham United in the previous championship but were knocked out 0-1 at home by Liverpool in the FA Cup, are only 14th in a trio of teams on 17 points, 25 fewer than the Citizens.

Since the resumption of competition after the World Cup, Manchester City have totaled 3 wins and 1 draw at home across all tournaments.

• Manchester City has won the last five meetings with Wolverhampton Wanderers.
• There have been five goals over 2.5 in the last 6 meetings between Manchester City and Wolverhampton Wanderers.
• Wolverhampton Wanderers have won just 1 of their last 6 games in all competitions.

At the Emirates Stadium in London, Premier League leaders Arsenal take on Manchester United in the Matchday 21 fixture, which kicks off on Sunday, December 22, 2023. Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal lead the tournament with 47 points, but The Red Devils, who are 8 lengths behind in third place, have played one game less.

• Arsenal are unbeaten in 6 games in a row in all competitions, with 5 wins and 1 draw.
• Since the season started again after the World Cup, Manchester United hasn’t lost a game. They have 7 wins and 1 tie.
