Liverpool VS Leeds United: Preview

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.

Manchester United VS Chelsea : Preview

Manchester United welcome Chelsea to the Theatre of Dreams. This fixture brings back memories of Frank Lampard’s first match as Chelsea manager when Ole’s reds smashed the blues 4-0. A lot has happened since for both teams but the circumstances leading up to the game are somewhat similar. Manchester United are inconsistent as they had been. Similarly, Chelsea are a team which is trying to find their feet and sort themselves out. Manchester United, in their midweek Champions League clash against Paris Saint Germain, won via a late Marcus Rashford goal(yes, again!). Manchester United have been wildly inconsistent in the Premier League so far, and have not won two games in a row. They destroyed Newcastle 4-1 at St. James’s Park in their last match but in their previous fixture, Tottenham decimated them 6-1 at home. Their defence, which has been suspect even after expensive reinforcements, somehow conceded only one goal at the hands of Mbappe, Neymar and Di Maria, which ...

VAR: Boon or Bane?

Ever since its introduction, VAR has sparked controversies all around the globe. While it was believed before its introduction that it would reduce the human errors and provide the referees a second chance to rectify their mistakes, it now has left us pondering whether technology intervention was required in the first place. The good point is that no foul committed can possibly go unnoticed but the disadvantages are far more with the most disturbing being it stops the flow of the game every now and then and this doesn’t augur well for the beautiful game as the frequent stoppages are disturbing both for the players and the audiences. By this time, we already know there have been a record number of penalties awarded in this season’s Premier League and credit goes to VAR for awarding them without much hesitation. For the first time ever we saw a team score after the final whistle. Yes, you heard that right. Manchester United’ s game against Brighton was completed...

UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL : PREVIEW

Bayern Munich and PSG meet in Europe's most prestigious competition final in Lisbon on Sunday. Both teams having won all domestic crowns on offer, are gunning to flaunt an illustrious treble for the season. With both squads bragging such destructive attacking talent, the game might be decided by the team who defends better. A first Champions League final for PSG, who seem to finally reap the dividends of spending millions, against an accomplished Bayern side, looking for their 6th Champions League, the stage is set for a jaw dropping game. PLAYERS TO MISS OUT PSG Laywin Kurzawa is still out due to a thigh injury. First choice keeper Keylor Navas is also doubtful after straining his hamstring in the quarter final against Atalanta. Idrissa Gueye is out with a thigh injury as well, Marco Verrati looks most likely to replace him. BAYERN MUNICH Bayern have a full strength squad barring a thigh injury to veteran Jerome Boateng who may miss the summit clash. ...
