Palace - Sunderland
Blueshite - Villa
Fulham - Leeds
Newcastle - Wolves

17:30

West Ham - Spurs

20:00

Scum derby



Forest made some mad choices over the last week and can see Arsenal beating them easily. Palace Sunderland could be somewhat entertaining. I expect Newcastle to beat Wolves even with Wissa being out. Everton and Villa will be dreadful.

 

[Hansern]

West Ham to maybe upset Spurs as well

 

[MomoWASright]

I dunno, West Ham are woeful and Potter is on the brink.

 

[Hansern]

Looked better against Forest. Spurs were awful against Bournemouth.

It's going to be one of the those status quo weekends for us I think.
Would love to see Forest steal points from Arsenal, but I don't see it happening. Saliba will probably play, and they'll handle Woods.
Eze will get his first goal for Arsenal.

I would have predicted a Brentford win if it was Thomas Frank's Brentford. This Liverpool reject version is shite.

City will demolish Man U.

 

[dee]

8pm Saturday is fucking stupid

 

[dee]

Saliba will probably play, and they'll handle Woods.

He's immense, shame they have him

 

[Buddha]

I thought Saliba was out for a few weeks? The Arse game hinges very much on who scores first. I can see Flange retreating to an ultra low block (Europe final style) should they nick a goal first half…and that might just be enough to get a draw.

Brentford aren’t Frank’s Brentford at home, but I’ll hope for a 1-1 there.

City - Utd 1-1 as well.

12:30

Arsenal - Forest 1-1

20:00

Brentford - Chelsea 1-1

Tomorrow 16:30

Scum derby 1-1

 

[dee]

Really Really hoping for a United away win 0-2 or 0-3. Pep seething and the deluded United fans cheering yet another false dawn. Would be wonderful

 

[Modo]

I thought this was a prediction thread.
If it's about what we're hoping, then:

Ars - Forest 0-7
Brentf - Che 5-0
Man C - Man U abandoned due to a Kaiju attack

 

[MomoWASright]

Is Elliott expected to play? Him to score the winner would make me pitch a tent.

Shit games. However I have hope Brentford will beat Chelsea, Fulham should have, Chelsea also not in their stride yet.

Saka, Saliba and Havertz out for a few more weeks I read.

 

[Frogfish]

Hoping for City to drop points. Could go any which way.

 

[Frogfish]

Saka, Saliba and Havertz out for a few more weeks I read.

PL Injuries have Havertz out until November, Saka until late September and Saliba at 50/50 for this weekend having trained for the first time yesterday.

PL Injuries have Havertz out until November, Saka until late September and Saliba at 50/50 for this weekend having trained for the first time yesterday.

As mentioned, it's a full debut for Eberechi Eze but there is no place for Declan Rice in Arsenal's starting line-up, with the midfielder settling for a place on the bench.

William Saliba is not in the matchday squad as he's still recovering from injury.

Arsenal starting XI: Raya, Timber, Mosquera, Gabriel, Calafiori, Zubimendi, Merino, Odegaard, Eze, Madueke, Gyokeres

Subs: Arrizabalaga, Hincapie, White, Martinelli, Trossard, Nwaneri, Rice, Lewis-Skelly, Dowman

Douglas Luiz, a summer signing from Juventus, is on the bench for Forest as the Brazilian looks for his first minutes in a Forest shirt.

Nottingham Forest starting XI: Sels, Williams, Murillo, Milenkovic, Morato, Anderson, Sangare, Gibbs-White, Ndoye, Hudson-Odoi, Wood

Subs: Victor, McAtee, Hutchinson, Boly, Luiz, Kalimuendo, Bakwa, Savona, Yates

 

[Buddha]

No Rice is a problem for them..

 

[Bradley]

Who will take the corners and free kicks. Their special teams are depleted.

 

[MomoWASright]

That Arsenal song is fucking wank.

 

[Beamrider]

That Arsenal song is fucking wank.

It is, appropriately, Mikel Arteta levels of weird.

 

[MomoWASright]

Odergaard dead after Moreno misses a sitter.

 

[binomial]

This game is absolutely fucking shite, when does the boxing start ffs.

 

[MomoWASright]

That was a rather good hit.

It’s been corner, corner, free kick, corner, free kick, corner, zzzzzzzzz

Murillo now dead for Forest.

 

[The Nomad]

Keeper should be saving that

 

[MomoWASright]

Keeper should be saving that

Too many bodies and the little touch taking it away means it wasn’t a simple save to make.

 

[peterhague]

I wonder when Arsenal last created a chance from open play.

2022/23

 

[Fabio]

I thought arsenal were away, so was mildly optimistic. Ah well.

Glad I can't watch it
