Leicester have won their last 5 games. The 2 premier league games they’ve won were well deserved, they destroyed Sunderland on the opening day of the season 4-2. This was a great game to watch from a neutral perspective, and new signing Mahrez made a great start to life in the Premier League with 2 goals. Leicester’s next game was a great victory away at West Ham, they won 2-1 with Mahrez on target again. Leicester currently lie in 2nd place and...

Van Gaal is such a passionate manager that I think this is starting to wear off on his squad. They haven’t played too well in their first 2 league games, however, they have won both and kept clean sheets. I personally thought United would struggle in defense this season having only really brought in Darmian. However, they’ve actually looked solid at the back and 2 clean sheets in 2 games have shown that. Newcastle have had a dismal start to the...

Leverkusen needs to build on a decent season from last years. 4th place and a Champions League spot was a reward for their troubles. Leverkusen will be looking to put out their strongest team in this encounter against Hoffenheim looking forward to starting of the season with a victory. Hoffenheim are a shadow of a team that they were and that was clearly seen then they were dumped out in the 1st round of the DFB Pokal by 2-0 scoreline to 1860 Munich....

Mainz had to get satisfied with eleventh position last season only five points more than relegating zone. Of course, the club wants to improve this season and to be once again battle for European Cups. Many changes in the team and they will need some time in order to start playing as a real team. They weren't impressive during friendlies, but surprising performance over Lazio in a 3:0 victory is a good sign. Ingolstadt ended the previous season...

Darmstadt won 5:0 away from home against Erndtebruck in the first round of German DFB Pokal, scoring twice in the first quarter of the game which made their life easy in this one. Coach Schuster said that they are gonna play with a very warm heart, but cold in mind, adding that everyone needs to play with great commitment and attention. Hannover started their campaign in the new season with a 2:0 away victory against Kassel, team from fourth division....

Last 20 games these teams played dated back 98 season have gone 13-6-1 in terms of the home team. And only 2 out of those 20 meetings were ended in 0:0. Both of these teams were really hoping for a win in the first round. Everton was loosing twice against Watford at home and despite having dominated the ball they failed to produce more chances than the visiting team. Southampton was a better team in their match against Newcastle and i feel they...

Last year Monaco spent a lot of money, and that's their biggest accomplishment. They started the season with 4 points form first 5 games and thus ended their championship run even before it began. This year things will need to be different drastically. They have won the first game but were losing at the half time mark. Today's game will be about sending a message about the form of this team. Lille managed to lose the home opener against a 10 manned...

I often wrote about opening night games and once again i am back at it. This is the opening game for Bayern and honestly, as far as easy opponents go, this one is the golden ticket. Bayern dominated this matchup over the last couple of years and they are a clear cut favorite for this one as well. But odds are just so one sided that i came to a conclusion that there is value in betting against the general opinion. Everyone expect a massive pummeling...

If there’s one thing that Manchester United has learnt in the last two seasons, its the fact that record counting does nothing against a determined opposition. Manchester United, who have traditionally dominated this fixture are unbeaten at Villa Park since 1995. Both the teams were made to work hard for their three points in the opening week. Pressure will be on both sides to produce a better display. What is really odd for me is that price for...

Despite the absences of Alexis Sanchez and Jack Wilshere for the opening-day match against West Ham, Wenger said he likes his side's prospects when he spoke to the media on Friday. Community Shield victory over Chelsea, have added weight to the argument that the Gunners can mount a serious title challenge this time around. Last season start was the reason why arsenal wasn't a contender for the title. After 12 games Arsenal was 15 points behind Chelsea...

The game will be McClaren's first competitive fixture at St James' Park, and could see him call on signings of Aleksandar Mitrovic, Chancel Mbemba and Georginio Wijnaldum. Mitrovic is the strongest player of the three and a lot is expected of him. With Newcastle being barely over relegation under John Carver last season, McClaren wants to usher in a new era on Tyneside with a positive showing. Southampton have an unusual injury concern over manager...

Steve Gerrard and Raheem Sterling are gone but the fresh players are there to replace to void for Liverpool. Signings of Benteke, Ings, Milner, Clyne and Firminio are more than capable in their own right, but the doubt for this year lies again in Brendan Rogers. Fans are not satisfied at all with his effort so far. He made a statement that he needs to win the trust of the fans and only way that is possible is by winning games. Consistently, over...

The preseason has been rather cruel to Everton with numerous concerns entering the season. The main worry is the fitness of striker Romelu Lukaku who is nursing a hamstring injury, and will be given right up until kick off to prove his fitness. After a largely disappointing season, albeit heavily affected by Europe, Everton will be looking to bounce back into the top 7 or 8 and try and chase another position in Europe.With 10 new faces added to...
