Hello Guys,

Welcome to yet another weekend of club football. The top leagues are on fire. Imagine Napoli, Barcelona and Arsenal all on 50 points after 19 games. Let the heat continue today. Arsenal and PSG will look to extend their lead at the top, other top teams will hope to close the gaps. We’ll see what happens. Hopefully, it would not be disappointing as Chelsea's draw yesterday.

ARSENAL VISITS MERSEYSIDE

The premier league leaders travel to the blue part of Liverpool, a venue they have lost in their last two visits. Let's see how it goes this time we think they'll be extra motivated after Mikel Arteta won his third Manager of the Month award yesterday. The gunners need all the motivation as Everton will be under the guidance of a new face Sean Dyche, who only lost once to Arsenal in his previous spells.

ARE DORTMUND TITLE CONTENDERS ONCE AGAIN?

Courtesy of three consecutive wins in the Bundesliga after the world cup, Dortmund have found themselves back in the title picture as they are now 3 points behind Bayern who are top. They host Freiburg in what would be a titles contenders match or at least a top 4 battle. They hope to continue their good run and see past the visitors. Haller is in contention to start too, after returning to the squad, we hope he gets a goal to boast his confidence.

EPL PLAYER OF THE MONTH RASHFORD VS GOAL OF THE MONTH WINNER OLISE H2H

January 2023 award winners Rashford and Olise will go head to head again. They met last month and it ended a draw with Olise breaking United's win run with a late equalizer. United have a chance to make it right this time and climb up to to 2nd place at least temporarily. Let's see if they take the chance.

CAN WOLVES PREY ON TORN APART LIVERPOOL?

Liverpool are having a terrible season in what happens to be Klopp's seventh season. To make matters worst, they added only Gakpo who is misfiring so far this winter. Liverpool have turned to prey for opposition and Wolves would love to take advantage, get their pound of flesh. Let's see how it goes, you never know, they best Liverpool may just turn up.

WOULD PSG MISS MBAPPE TODAY?

PSG were hit with injuries last match when they lost Ramos and most importantly Mbappe. They would go on to win, but the loss of both stars can’t be over emphasized. Messi and Neymar would be in charge of their attack until Mbappe returns. The question remains if they will miss the Frenchman who for years now is the cornerstone of their attack.

ATLETICO MADRID LOOKS TO CONTINUE THEIR GOOD RUN OF FORM

Diego Simeone has his side firing again. In fact, they have only lost twice in their last 10 matches to Barcelona and Real Madrid, so we can say they are doing just fine at the moment. Getafe on the other hand have lost all of their last 5 matches, so may lack the confidence they need. But like we always say, you never can tell in football. Let’s talk at full-time.
