The Premier League begins on Saturday. The first matchday brings previous year’s Premier League Champions and the Championship winners against each other. Leeds United’s first Premier League match after all these years is a trip to Anfield. Leeds United’s strategy has to be to not get relegated this season and then they can really kick on in the years to come.
Liverpool
The runaway Premier League Champions seem to have lost their bite. They didn’t really look great in the last few matches of the Premier League last season, losing to Arsenal and Manchester City. But the fact is Liverpool had won the title by then, which surely would have decreased their hunger. They also lost the Community Shield against Arsenal on penalties. Liverpool have a brilliant bunch of players and if they can get back their motivation, then they can beat anyone. In last season’s first match, they came up against Daniel Farke’s Norwich, whom they beat 4-1, a similar result can be expected this time as well.
Leeds United
Leed’s Premier League journey begins at the home of the current champions. There is a lot of talk about Marcelo Bielsa and this Leeds side. Leeds haven’t really added much to their squad. The signing of Rodrigo from Valencia will help. Bielsa has to somehow find a balance. They can’t be playing the free flowing possession based football they had been playing in the Championship. Look at Norwich, they played some good stuff last season but ultimately got relegated, while Sheffield United, who didn’t really have the best style of play, had a top half finish. The first match would be a tough one for Leeds.
