Picks of the Day – Saturday 7th December

Summary

Holy Molly. Our positive results continues, hopefully we will be able to make great calls again this weekend and finish the whole week on an unforgettable run. We got plenty of favorites today, so it’s important they do their job.

Aston Villa vs Southampton

Aston Villa won, just as predicted – but are their troubles over? Nah, not quite. Though Southampton is so pathetically bad that we can already stamp their Premier League relegation ticket.

Their game against Chelsea was a total disaster. They let in an insane amount of expected goals, around 5.30, even with Chelsea swapping out seven players from their last game. And to make things worse, their captain got sent off for foolishly tugging on Cucurella’s hair after the whistle blew – it was like watching a bunch of rookies!

Facing the Saints at home, it feels like free 3 points for any team in the Premier League.

Crystal Palace vs Manchester City

Looks like Manchester City’s reign might be over, right? Even with De Bruyne back starting for the first time since mid-September and looking sharp, people are saying the team’s stars just can’t keep up anymore. They’re all over 30 and supposedly past it, and Haaland seems to be left hanging when he’s not scoring.

But let’s be honest here: they can still take down Crystal Palace, a squad that struggles to find the back of the net and has only one victory at home. 🏆⚽ Age really doesn’t matter, and City isn’t out of the game just yet!

Manchester United – Forest

Tonight, we’ve got a Portuguese coaching showdown!

United lost to Arsenal like we kinda figured, but it wasn’t all bad. They actually did pretty well in some parts, especially in the first half. It seems like Man U is a bit better under Amorim, but he really needs to chill with switching up the lineup so much. If he can keep it steady, they might actually beat Forest.

Looking back, these two teams have an exciting rivalry. In the past two seasons, Manchester United has totally dominated, winning six out of their seven meetings. And those last two home games? The Red Devils won by scoring 3, with 3-0 and 3-2 scores.

Bonus corner kick action coming up!

Forest barely wins any corners on the road, and – surprise, surprise – the same goes for Manchester United under Amorim. Corner kick enthusiasts, prepare for a potentially dry spell! 🥅⚽

Betis vs Barcelona

Betis looked totally lost against Real Sociedad, barely creating a single goal chance. They’re in horrendous form right now – if they repeat their pathetic performance from the last 5 matches, they’re in for a brutal beatdown!
